I need help to configure both Bit Torrent or UTorrent.
Thanks a lot

i want to do this because i am running the apache server on my pc and i would like it to be on 24/7 if possible? does it cost much to keep my pc runnign 24/7 withoutt being in sleep/hibernatij mode ? and also if i kept it on while not being in sleep mode would the led/neon lights in my pc have a shorter life?

Want to switch UK Broadband Supplier – understand I need to give my new supplier a MAC code in order to switch.

Is there a way to avoid like a day (maybe more) without access? I know what these companies are like and I need my Internet! Can I overlap (I would be prepared to pay two suppliers for one month). Not sure how it works – can I only be connected to one supplier at a time?

My internet goes down like once per minute.. for about 2 to 3 minutes. I performed a virus scan which came back clean. Also my brother is playing PS3 online in the other room and his keeps going down as well! Is this a service provider issue or what!?
I have high speed fiber optic cable, a 100 mbps modem, and a router that connect to some Cat6 adapters.
None of my friends have this problem with their internet, but they all have DSL, and their houses are setup the same way, last time i checked my speed it was 5.4 MBPS for data transfer. Can anyone help???

Do they have the capability (like GPS and other locating methods) coz my friend has lost his phone from a thief.

I have a linksy wireless router that was given to me. How can I put a password on it to make it secure?

my smart broadband keep on stocking…i easely conected to internet but after a few minutes it stocked. i connect it to wireless and lan but its working good.what will i do?

Usually every 15 minutes, but it becomes more aggressive them gets better. Its a cycle. Noticeable when playing World of warcraft

Someone who actually has a clue what he’s talking about, please answer.
To narrow it down, no, it’s certainly not a any malicious software. I have constant scans of spyware and viruses.

I use netgear wgr614 router and have recently experienced frequent disconnections.
Here is something that may help
Can someone who actually knows what he’s talking about answer, please?

My uncle bought a D Link wireless router to use. We set it up and it didnt work until we called the company and asked for detail instruction on how to get the wireless running. After all that trouble, the wireless works fine for about 3-4 days and it gives us the “limited or no connectivity” problem. Every time like that I have to reset the router, and after 2 weeks I have to reconfigure the DSL modemn and the wireless all over. I know this problem is unavoidable but is it necessary to happen this often? Its really annoying. Any idea how to fix this? I tried winsock reset and that did not work out so well. I’m using Vista Ultimate SP2 btw

So, I have had this problem with my internet connection, i keep losing it every few minutes.. it doesn’t necesarly go off it just keeps d/cing me from aim and what not. .. then i can get signed back in a few minutes later.. this is highlyyy annoying especially when im downloading something. ive had this problem since i moved into this apartment offering free internet.. it is broadband.. i had dsl before and it was fine. i have no bandwidth restrictions, and i have had the tech support guys for my internet out here and they said that it wasnt the internet.. its my computer(which i find hard to believe) but ive done the winsock xp fix, and that didnt work.. and a few other things that had no effect.. and it seems anywhere i go or ask i need to pay 250 dollars for them to just check to see if there is a problem nonetheless fix it(thats the quote i got from geek squad) i have windows xp media center edition sp2, and my connection is a LAN.. please help!
i connect by a port in the wall, and supposidly no one in the complex has the same problem.. there is an ethernet whole in my wall and i just plug it from there to my comp.. so im guessing the whole complex is on routers threw out the buildings

I put in my email address into the iphone with my email password but i keep getting “the user name or password for imap.apple.mail.com is incorrect. What do I do?

I’ve tried setting up yahoo and Apple Mail via the mac mail button but I can’t seem to setup any email on my iphone no matter what I do. When I setup the mac mail(mobileme) I get the error that username or password is not correct.

I have a home network. The router has port forwarding, which you set by setting which IP address the ports are forwarded to. But as the computers come and go and are restarted, the router keeps assigning them different addresses, leading to the ports forwarding to different machines all the time, which I’m constantly manually correcting. I’ve tried setting up the computers with manual IP settings, or using DHCP with a manual IP address, but neither one will work- they only work when configured to use DHCP, and then the addresses keep changing. An old router I had let you reserve an IP address and always assign it to the same MAC address, so the same machine always had a static local IP, but my Linksys Wireless router doesn’t appear to offer that. Any idea?

I need to save space!! and how do i make thunderbird auto delete local copies (without deleting server copies)
