  • wireless access point?

    I have here a wireless access point netgear wg602 v4 and has only 1 lan port. I want to use this as my router. Basically, I have 1 router with 4 ports and I want to discard it. When I tried to connect my broadband to my netgear, the internet works on 1 computer only. When I connect the other computer it asks the service reference (which is supplied to my billing account) and the internet works on that computer, but the other computer that use to have the connection disconnects. is there another solution for this? or do I really need a router?

  • Hardware issues vs software issues?

    My cousin's laptop suddenly had a problem with the integrated graphics. It suddenly turns like no drivers installed, dxdiag says no d3d, acceleration etc, cant detect the memory ram of the integrated graphics and it takes a long time to load to windows. what i did was i installed a fresh copy of windows 7. after that the graphics driver is using "standard vga drivers". I am a bit confused why coz I'm sure that win7 has wdm drivers. I downloaded the real drivers for win 7. I installed it, the screen didnt flashed just like a normal installation where no restarting is required. I restarted the laptop, after that, still it is using the standard vga adapter. I checked for the display drivers in the device manager. ID is unknown and lots of "N/A's". i tried to take ownership of the standard vga adapter in order for me to delete the "standard vga adapter" because every time i uninstall it, after restart it automatically installs the driver. so what i did after, i chose "Let me choose the driver to install". I selected the installation folder of the downloaded software, it doesnt recognize it. i tried to select the win7 wdm drivers but there is a problem and it cant install. is this a hardware issue?

  • Dell Battery Circuit?

    Okay. I have here a Dell battery that used to work 2 hours ago. I always discharge this once a week or once every 2 weeks. 2 hours ago I still manage to watch movie for 30 minutes without battery problem. I left for about 1 hour with the laptop charged in. When I came back 1 hour later, I unplugged my laptop. The laptop just died like there were no batteries at all. It just died without warning, like a desktop unplugged. I press the battery status on my Dell battery, there are 5 leds but only 1,3 and 5 are blinking. I went to see the manual and it says defective battery. Now I opened the battery pack, there were six cell all in all and a circuit. I tried to measure it with my own battery tester and it is fine. I tried to short it and it sparks. A huge spark. SO problem here is the circuit. Now I don't know where to start. What seems to be the culprit. What signs will I be looking to know what is damaged? Buying a new bat pack is not going to happen. Please thanks in advance..
