Hi Guys! I have been successful in connecting my phone to internet on both Ubuntu and openSUSE
using BOTH the methods. I am not sure about other distros however they should work. There are two
ways to connect to the internet using a GPRS modem phone. For the phones with BLUETOOTH : THE
BLUETOOTH CONNECTION METHOD: You need to follow the steps below to connect to the internet using
a bluetooth connection: 1: Switch on bluetooth on your phone and the computer. Make both your
computer and phone visible to other devices. 2: Do a search from Linux for bluetooth de...

Hello, I am having some trouble setting up Internet Connection Sharing. Here is my setup. My
internet is through a neighbor who is sharing there internet with me wirelessly, so I don't have
any type of broadband modem, just a wireless card on my desktop PC. I have a linksys WRT54G router
connected to the desktop PC and tried following the guidelines for home networking, and works fine,
but no internet connection now. When I unhook my router then my internet connection comes back.
Its as if the computer is looking for internet on my network, and I dont know how t...

I use a SAMSUNG SGH-C200N handset coupled with Airtel (a GSM Service Provider in Asia) GPRS to
connect to the internet. Here is a review about my Internet Connection - Points > By default
Windows always shows the connection speed to an outstanding 115.6 KBps. Although, from what I have
seen via the connection status, when downloading files from a good server, the maximum speed that I
get is around 5 Kbps. During the peak hours, the connection's speed deteriorates and the data
transmission becomes intermittent. Every Page (except for good ol' Google)...

Lately, my computer's internet has been getting slower and slower. When I check the connections
established in all my programs, there is my usual programs running. When I test the connection on
another computer, it was also slow. The ping rate between my computer and the router is <1ms, so I
don't think its the router problem. From 500 kb/s, it changed to 300kb/s, 100 kb/s and now its
30kb/s. Could it be a problem with the ISP?...

Hi, I just got my iMac today and want to set it up to have wireless internet using my DSL Router. I
got a USB Wireless Adapter (for the Mac OS) and installed the drivers for it. Then I restarted and
plugged in the USB adapter. The manual said a flashing icon should be on the upper left, but I
didn't see this. So I went into the Preferences (I think) and found the 802.11b adapter there.
I clicked on it and on the left, chose Create... I left it at Access Point (hope that's
correct) and set it to 26 digits for the password. Currently I'm using 128 bit en...

Today I was trying to setup shared internet for someone and was having lots of problems with it.
They are using AOL DSL and had their ISP's modem. They have a Linksys router (forgot what
model...WRT something) and I tried almost everything I can think of to no avail. Here is the
problem. The modem connects to the computer using USB ONLY. It has an ethernet adapter in the back
of the modem but it will not work (needs the USB either way). After playing around more for over an
hour, I came to some "conclusion" that the other machines need the modem to be connected via ...

Does anyone DISagree with me on this? I mean, the yahoo chat rooms are FULL of guys looking to
cyber, older guys looking to cyber, guys pretending to be girls looking to cyber, and porn bots.
People are VERY VERY fake in there. Granted, people aren't always what they seem in chat rooms,
and I guess you can say everyone is a bit fake in one way or another online, but, I think this
really takes the place in the yahoo chat. Also, the booters? Seriously, Everyone spending their
time loading mass 10 id booters and mass IMing people until they drop? Then everyone h...

I like to share our broadband modem and access Internet from the second computer. The 2 computers
are not connected to each other. I am considering setting up a network of these 2 computers using a
wireless access point and 2 wireless network cards. I assume the access point and the braodband
modem will be attached to one of the computers and the other computer will be able to access
Internet through the access point. Is there any other way of sharing the modem eg. using adapters/
extensions, like sharing the telephone line? ...

Hey, Here's a weird problem I've encountered. On my test server running CentOS and Apache2
w/ the Apache2 Manual installed and accessible from the web, everything seems fine. So I access it
via my home network on which the server is located and the manual loads like I'm on a 56K
connection. To give you an idea of the speed, it's just a tweak faster than using MySpace during
peak hours. MySpace is still slower than my server though. But today at school, I try it and the
thing loads like it was on an OC-93 fiber line at a data center! AND- if I try to FTP...

I am running Windows XP SP2. Sometimes while I am surfing the internet, Explorer will just lock up.
When I close Internet Explorer I get an error message as follows: The instruction at "0x1001a584"
referenced memory at "0x1001a584". The memory could not be read. I found a website that said this
is probably a .net issue and removing the .net environment should solve the problem. This solution
did not work for me. Anyone have any solutions? /mad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle"

I am new to linux and just installed Kubuntu. I have windows XP on my master primary hard drive and
Kubuntu is installed on my slave drive. Everything seems to work great except that I cannot connect
to the internet when I boot into Kubuntu (I also tried Ubuntu). I am thinking maybe it has something
to do with ethernet adapter driver. I can connect just fine in windows, so I know that the actual
hardware isn't messed up. Windows uses the driver for Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Ethernet NIC.
I looked through google and help forum threads and it seems others have h...

The problem with Proxy servers.... 1) they usually only work with http, getting one to work with
MSN messenger is neer impossable ! 2) although they stop the site you are browsing from knowing who
you are, your Internet service provider still knows exactly what you are doing. 3) i hate proxies.
What if.... What if you first ran a local filter proxie, it doesnt do anything major, it just
scrubbs any identifying info from your web traffic, things like browser identification, cookies,
revelaing DNS info. then this proxie connected to anouther local service. this local se...

also seem to have lost all of my bookmarks which have been mysteriously replaced by unwanted ones
such as Apple, MSN websites and Microsoft websites - none of which I have ever book...

Hey, I'm helping my mom with one of her web projects for class and I've noticed a pretty
big problem (no thanks to IE7) that cost her a few points. It won't load an image of an email
