Hello! I'm trying to learn and setup a VPN connection (to simulate a "real" one). I have a Windows Server 2008 machine with VMware Player installed on it. I have installed Windows XP in the VMware Player for this VPN "simulation". I googled for the VPN setup and set the XP virtual machine as the VPN server (a lot of fiddling around, it's my first time setting up a VPN connection). The...

Hi guys, I have just upgraded my internet in the UK, and I can now receive speeds of up to 150mb. My iPhone is fine and can connect to the 5Ghz network channel but my laptop cannot. After a bit of looking into it, it seems my wireless card is not compatible, so I either need to change the wireless card within the laptop, or buy a dongle. I'd rather install one within the laptop if that is...

My laptop connects to the local network, but it has no internet access. If I run troubleshooting it says that the DNS server isn't responding. It is not the internets fault, because my room mate net works fine. It's not the cables fault because I tried plugging it in both of my routers and in both of my room mates, using his cable. And it doesn't work. Wifi works fine elsewhere, but I don't...

Hi guys, I need a wireless adapter that supports 5Ghz. I have an older laptop that has some issues, but the card in it works fine, so I swapped it into this laptop. It installs fine, I updated the drivers etc, but it will not 'turn on'. When I troubleshoot it, the error is that it is currently turned off. The button to turn on and off my wireless doesn't do anything to change it, so although...

Is there any way to define a 6rd bridge endpoint in Windows? I recently switched from CenturyLink DSL to Comcast cable for internet connectivity. I will still be paying for the DSL support for many months (Poor planning when setting up the service contract.) so am using the DSL connection as backup. The DSL modem is very old and doesn't have IPv6 support. When DSL was my only internet...

New install on a new 1Tb hard drive straight out of the wrapping. Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit, OEM DVD bought from Amazon. The internet icon has a red cross on it, meaning no connection, and several re-boots hasn't cured it. But there is nothing wrong with my connection. I have a second hard drive which if I boot from it I connect instantly. How can I resolve this?

If I print to the Envy it will print the work after I logout of the remote session. Any suggestions would be great. I am...
