My mum bought the sims 2 when it first came out and when we installed it. The broadband didn’t work anymore. We thought it was conincidence, but we tried a couple of months later and still the same thing happened and then we tried again just to make sure. We rung up the person that we always go to for computer problems and he said that the broadband must be unconpatible with the game. Is tere any other reason and how can we stop it to allow me to play the game?

Im trying to install a Belkin router without using a desktop. I want to get wireless internet for laptop but do now know how to without desktop. Does anyone know how to do this?

I am changing providers and just subscribed to Qwest DSL and Direct TV. I do not have phone service (all cell phones in the household). They are coming next week and I am supposed to have the DSL jack installed by the time they come out to install. I’m having technicians come out for the Direct TV, but I am trying to alleviate the $100 for the DSL tech to set up my DSL since they charge another $100 on top of that to wire the jack. I am looking for help to make sure I’m setting this up right. From reading online, it seems there are going to be two coaxial cable lines for the Direct TV that will come in and I need one dry loop line for my DSL.

Where my TV is located now, there was no phone jack anywhere nearby. I have since cut out a hole in the drywall so I can bring in cables from my crawl space, up through the wall, and attach them to the new modular plate and jacks. To make it look nice I want to use a three empty space modular plate with two coaxial jacks and one phone jack.

For the DSL: I bought CAT5e cable and am going to run a dry loop for the DSL from the NID to this area. I understand I attach only the blue wires (blue/white and solid blue) to the NID at one end. At the jack end, I’m not sure what to use exactly for these corresponding blue wires. Do I just put in a regular RJ-11 jack into the plate and attach them or is there a different jack to use since it’s a CAT5e cable?

For the Direct TV: I am getting DVR and it says that I need to have it connected to a phone line. I’ve never had DVR before and am not sure how it works. Are the technicians just going to put a filter on the DVR with a splitter and run both the DSL modem and the DVR through the dry loop line? Or would it be better / possible to attach another of the dry loop wires (the orange wires for example) to a second phone jack just for the DVR? This way there would be two phone jacks and two coaxial cables on the modular plate. I’m not sure if this would interfere with the DSL connection. I’ve read stuff online that makes me think I may not be able to run both the DVR and DSL on the dry loop without frequently dropping my internet signal. Any suggestions or help is much appreciated.

Is there a special service I need to utilize an ADSL modem/router or should it work on the dsl account that I currently subscribe to?

Im trying to prove that the fiber converters will “Bottleneck” the bandwith if trying to convert from copper to fiber back to copper using converters only. And is it possible to get it to work right with just prchasing these components without a router or switch?
Jus to clear this up the ISP is on a CAT5 not at Fiber network so we would be going from a CAT5s to a fiber back to a CAT5 wouldnt the converter create alot of noise and disrupt the network?
CAT5 can olny push so much and we are not on a very high bandwith network, im thinking it will make the network worse on the other side with all the noise with the conversions, Wouldnt it be better to use a Wireless omini AP at the first point and second to bring the noise down?
Scharf,
I understand the network is run through fiber through different ISP’s that come through companies like Level 5. And I know that you can have a fiber network that transforms into CAT5 through switches (Did this whenI worked at CISCO Datacenters doing Layer I Engernerring). All I need is proof or someone to prove me wrong that you need more than a converter to have a fiber network in the buisness you work in. And that you need a ISP to provide you with a Fiber network and not just a basic cable network for small buisnesses to bridge the fiber from one point to the other. Here is the cloud: the network starts off from one building the CAT5 starts off from the wireless router goes to a converter that changes the copper to fiber, goes 300ft with fiber, goes beack to copper using another converter and to another building then spreads out in a smaller cloud for the workstations. Can this be done just using 2 Converters and a fiber cabel. Or is it better to go wireless 300ft
I used to build network clouds for a WISP once and thought it would be better to use a 15dpi network ap and jus shoot it 300ft (It can go 1.5mi). Than doing the fiber conversion.

I will supply CAT5 and outlets

Any OS that I can install to to the same job as an ADSL router? Also a GUI is good

Thanks

sourcers of info, tools i will need, underlayment, i am ripping out carpet and have a 3/4′ ply stranded subfloor. cleats or staples? bamboo is pre finished. t&g. over the next couple of months i will do about 2000 sq. ft. and 3 stair wells. please maske it easy for me. also want some soundproofing. will be adding cat5e, water to deck, a/v(4 twisted pair shielded) 20 amp to most most outlets etc. also will attempt to balance hvac system(any help here?) i don’t have flow or pressurew meters yet nor IF-thermo. also need to inject insullation foam around all windows and doors. then paint. if you live in chi town anbd are bored let me know. I know all the trades but have a bum shoulder and back. all ideas and info is wellcome!

I want to install a network card on my laptop but I don’t have the disc that came with it. (It’s a few years old) I ran a check on my computer to see if it had the driver on it but it doesn’t have it for the model I have. (It’s a D-link DFE-670TXD). I found the driver it needs online using my desktop but when I downloaded it to a disc and tried to run it on my laptop it said the disc didn’t contain files related to my hardware, and I KNOW it was the right driver. Is there any other way to get the driver on the laptop without the original disc? I can’t connect the two computers b/c the network adapter is the kind that allows you to plug in a CAT5 cable, not a wireless one. PLEASE HELP!!

How to install apache2 and php 5 on windows 2003

I’ve already install windows IIS6.0 in our home server
I have a Linksys WAG54G V.2. router and HP Proliant ML150 Server, with windows advance server OS.

I live in a 1960′s built home with old wiring the drop line is in ok condition does have some cracks though. The NID is on a brick wall outside (about to fall off) and is orignal to the house I think. The inside phone line isnt in a very good place I need it to be in my home office (way on the other side of the house) as for the Cat5 I’ve heard they will run i through the attic for up to 3 TV’s and a line to the RG (residential gateway) there is about 10 year old coax and I am sick of looking at it. I am geting U-verse in 3 rooms and the RG will be in the office. Will they do this work for free? and if not how much money am I looking at spending I don’t want to spend a huge amount.

I have seen tutorials on how to terminate the shielded cable to a shielded connector or a shielded wall-jack plug, but the real unanswered question is where do you do the grounding? I assume that your patch panel needs to be properly grounded, but would then need grounded plugs or a whole new grounded model of patch panel (we’re talking a single 48-port here). Then I read that you only need to shield the side of your cable run that plugs into the patch panel. Other sources say you need to shield both ends. I get that metal needs to contact metal for the ground to properly work, but am I trying to ground the PC itself as well?

Correct me if I’m wrong… Grounded patch panel with grounded plugs + shielded solid or plenum to shielded wall jack > to shielded connector for shielded stranded patch cable to PC. Off patch panel, shielded patch cables with shielded connectors to Servers / printers, etc…

Is this how the shielded is supposed to properly work? or can it be done halfway where there is electrical interference, and the cable runs might be crossing over conduit or power lines, etc…
This scenario: grounded patch panel + shielded plugs + shielded cable to standard wall jacks to unshielded patch cables with standard connectors.

I am attempting to upgrade Cat5 structure which is suffering from electrical interference.

I just bought a new laptop/notebook pc and because it does not have cd drive,how do I install Verizon broadband stick, Verizon Network Access Manager on this pc, so that I can use my pc anywhere?

um i have an adsl modem that i don’t know how to install its an old modem from att and we don’t pay for it anymore but they let us keep everything i don’t know why but when i hook the power and then hook up the internet cord the light flashes red on the dsl light when its suppose to flash green is it because we don’t pay for it anymore?and it used to work but i dont know why its not working anymore
