    Pass-Through Network Jack Wall Wiring?

    I'm not really a wiring guy, but I have a client that needs me to basically help with putting in a few pass-through network jacks in walls that are being put up currently. So that you can plug a network cable into each side of the wall (in the jack) and it allows the network signal to pass...

    Yellow Machine Support Site / Forum

    thread881-1418424 Just wanted to post that I've started a support forum for users of Anthology Solutions' Yellow Machine (since the company is out of business). There used to be a support forum but it has apparently died also. The web address of my support forum (where I've already posted a...

    Sony VAIO VGN-SZ740 - Potential Motherboard Issues

    Hi All, I have a client who has a Sony VAIO VGN-SZ740 (N7) laptop, and recently they had some catastrophic issues with their machine. At first, it seemed as if their hard drive was dying, and it was replaced (I was able to back it up first). However, it seems as if that isn't the issue, but...

    Small Office Networking Advice Needed

    G0AOZ, Thanks for the reply. I am pretty sure that a wireless solution would be adequate in my scenario, but setting it up is where I run into some difficulty. The existing DSL modem actually has an ethernet connection, and I'd prefer not to replace it with a combo wireless DSL...

    Small Office Networking Advice Needed

    Bobby13, Thanks for the reply. I have a few questions regarding your advice that perhaps you can assist me with. First, why do you suggest wireless PC cards or USB flash cards instead of USB adapters? Is there some problem with USB adapters? Second, you state that "If the PCs are running...

    Laptop Lockdown with VPN and Proxy? - Circumvention Possible?

    Sorry once more for the long delay in responding. It seems now that my father's newer work machine also doesn't get any internet connectivity on our home network when we shut down the VPN client.

    Laptop Lockdown with VPN and Proxy? - Circumvention Possible?

    Laptop Lockdown with VPN and Proxy? - Circumvention Possible?

    MarkhP, Thanks for the reply, and sorry for taking so long to get back to you. His company doesn't forbid him from doing this, but his IT department won't really help him out since they say it works the way it is now and they don't have time to try to fix it to work the way he wants it too...

    Laptop Lockdown with VPN and Proxy? - Circumvention Possible?

    My father has a work laptop from his office that seems to be locked down with VPN and proxies so as not to allow any sort of internet access unless he is first connected to his office network via SecuRemote VPN. We have a wireless network at home and he gets an IP address from it, but beyond...
