  1. A Comcast tech came, and they said that it was the actual modem's problem (something about the firmware not being upgraded or something). So he switched out the modem. So far everything has been running alright. I haven't had to restart the router, however, there are periods of about 1 or 2 minutes when the internet just seems like it stops, and then it works again. Its weird. Do you have any ideas?
  2. Hi, Its a Linksys WRV200. Its not compatible with the DDWRT. Yes, I've tried updating the firmware, and yes I've put it back to factory settings.

Its weird, because what happens is that I'm still connected to the router, but there is no Internet access, and I can't ping the router. I will try to connect straight to the modem.

What happens is that my router disconnects from all of the laptops on it at random intervals. To get it working again, I need to unplug the router and wait for it to reset.

I have tried many things to remedy this problem, and none of them have worked. It is a linksys router, but I also had the same problem wi
  4. Hey everyone! I'd like to put out a request for a verizon phone. Something that doesn't look like it has too much wear, and that is fairly modern. Also, the charger and a working battery should be included please! Also, a picture or two would be very helpful. I'd like to spend at most $30 on it...And I'll pay for shipping or whatever. I need a phone to either give to my grandparents, or get a cooler phone than the one that I currently have, and give that one to my grandparents. So let me know, through PM if you have a spare phone that you would be willing to give away or sell. I appreciate i
  5. *Also, to learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read this article by Tony Klein: So how did I get infected in the first place? This article includes important ways of how to keep safe, and has links to programs that you should download to keep spyware free!

  18. Hi, Welcome to Besttechie.net. First of all, I notice that you have Spybot's TeaTimer running. While this is normally a wonderful tool to protect against hijackers, it can also interfere with HijackThis fixes. So please disable TeaTimer by doing the following: 1) Run Spybot-S&D 2) Go to the Mode menu, and make sure "Advanced Mode" is selected 3) On the left hand side, choose Tools -> Resident 4) Uncheck "Resident TeaTimer" and OK any prompts 5) Restart your computer. You can reenable TeaTimer once your system is clean. Next, please Download NoLop to your desktop from one of the links
