I usually connect to my home pc from work. A friend tried connecting from his home pc to mine & couldn't connect too.

Everything was working fine for 3 days then it fails again.
There has to be something that's self-terminating.

Everything on my end hasn't changed, I'm still trying to connect from the same connection, and I resolved this issue last night by rebuilding the connections. One thing I learned from working in tech...

Instead of the network connection icon in the system tray showing Local Area Connection & speed, why can't it show the current i.p. address while the mouse pointer is on it?

Both users log in with different user/pw.

Yes.

A user clicks onto a login tab then I.E. abruptly closes.
If another user logs in, visits the same site, clicks on the same login tab, then everything's o.k. thereafter.

Why is the first user...

You know, I saw that too at MS' knowledge base but couldn't figure out how to reassign the keys.

I have a goofy problem. In Excel, if I hit alt+e, then the Edit menu doesn't drop. I can do this with all the other menus except Edit. I've uninstalled & reinstalled but got nowhere. Any ideas?

Here are my reasons:

On the 2nd floor, I have a Linksys WRT54GP2 for Vonage & it doubles as a wireless router. In the basement, I have 2 computers I'd like to connect that don't have wireless...

I've read that a WRT54G could act as a bridge or access point with the right firmware and configuration. I'd like to bridge my WRT54G to my WRT54GP2. What'd be the least painful avenue to take?

As my A+ instructer once taught me, I Googled some possibilities & found this.

I'm trying to decide what would be the better choice: wireless-g bridge, router, or access point.

Here's what I'm trying to do: I want to connect 2 computers in the basement to the wireless...

Since day 1, I have always been able to access the admin login screen from either computer. Starting yesterday, I can't access the admin login from my Linux computer using Mozilla. However, my XP...

After working for an i.s.p., I have encountered many spyware/adware ultilities.
I always preferred Adaware vs. Spybot because Spybot seems too dangerous for the lesser experienced user. Too often I...

Just recently I had to replace my kvm switch & now I can't scroll upwards on either computer. 1 computer uses XP & the other uses Fedora Core.
The kvm switch I'm using is a Zonet.

To be honest, the objective of this project is to be able to check on my dog while I'm at work. What can I say? I love my puppy.

I have an Intel web cam, Windows XP, Linksys BEFSR41 router, and this is what I'd like to accomplish:

I'd like to know if there's a way I could use these components for remote monitoring via...

Strange question: is there any tool in existance that is inserted into a network card to test whether the card will work or not?

If that's all I have to do then I'm going outside to flog myself with a garden hose for being stupid.

Thank you for your answer.

O.k., only one last hurdle to clear: ftp permissions. For some odd reason, I'm the only one of 3 who can write to the ftp directory. Is there some way I can change permissons per user? I have Googled...

O.k., I think I have this one solved. The hd and the motherboard need to go because posting behavior changes but not that often. I tried a different hd in this pc and it posted fine so this 5 year+...
