My sister does not pay for high-speed internet, but she...?

Hi, any help will be appreciated. My sister currently has high speed internet on his computer at home, but she's not be charged anywhere where we can see.

She currently has comcast cable to his phone and cable TV. No where on the Bill is it supported for the high speed internet. Comcast deny it becomes internet delicately them. I origionally belive she got the service by ATT for phone and high speed internet. She changed phone service to comcast and I guess the external modem is home for internet high speed and his home phone. She is not charged for high speed.

The problem is that his computer is his last stages of life, its between 10 and 11 years old and runs windows XP. I tried to plug in another post, but because I do not know where our 'free' high speed internet I have no meens to download the software for a new computer and I have of course no password.

1 could. someone tell me through the settings or somewhere else on the computer where I could find information on high speed internet? Is that what I can do to connect a new computer to the Internet without a password?

2. could I buy a wireless router broadband and connect it directly to the cable outlet in the wall can connect to its current modem (from comcast for internet and phone) or would need a password for the internet account that I don't have?

Any help is appreciated! Any suggestions? Greg

Click Start-> Control Panel-> network.  That displays all your network connections.

Good luck.

  • I pay to 30 Mbps high speed Internet, but I can't reach anywhere near that.

    Need more speed!

    I pay to 30 Mbps high speed Internet, but I can't reach anywhere near that. I am an intermediate user of computers, so I know the basics to determine problems on my laptop. My laptop has Windows 7 and is a Dell 1545 Inspiron. I was told I may have to buy a card N-router, but when I checked the info on what's in the computer it says that I have the ability to achieve 54 Mbps. I'm confused... Please help...

    Hello faerygyrl34,

    At home, I have a connection to 25meg down and I see usually 2 to 2.5 MB download speed when downloading files via either wired or wireless.
    It was my normal rule you divide by 10 connection speed and is normally your download speed in performance in the real world.
    This has to do with the difference between MB and megabits. A megabit is about one-tenth of the information of a megabyte.
    Internet provider is advertising 30 megabits, but you're going to download only to 3 megabytes.
    Who is? It can be quite confusing.
  • BlackBerry Smartphones Can I have a blackberry and not pay for all the internet services?

    Hi I'm new on this and my t-mobile phone that I broke and I looking to upgrade to something that will help me to stay a bit more organized, but are unwilling to pay for the service package that comes with the purchase of a blackberry from t-mobile. I know that I could get one on craigslist or ebay or something and I was wondering if I could just put in my Sim Card and it would have all the functions without the internet and emails. All I really want to the phone is easy navigation, good organizer, easily send SMS and calls. Thanks for the help! -Sully

    Sully, Hello and welcome to the Forums of Support BlackBerry.com.

    Sorry, no. Without the BlackBerry data Plan, you will get very little data from the device functions... voice and SMS, Yes. Calendar, contacts, etc., Yes. No RIM push email.

    You can use the Opera Mini browser for the internet with the setttings TCP active for a browser for free... just watch your billing and ensure that you are not charged.

  • TimeCapsule wifi does not work for iphone and ipad, but doesn't work for laptops

    I just got a new 3 TB timecapsule to replace my old 1 TB timecapsule.  Everything seems in place and I transferred all my data to the new.  Our computers two apple laptops gets wifi nine immediately, but our two iphones and an ipad receive no wifi.  They show that they are connected to a new network, but not WiFi.  Can someone tell me what should I do?  Thank you!

    On the iphones and ipad clear on all networks known. Restart the device and make a new configuration of the network.

    If they are later version idevices... test in the same room as the TC. Still have problems reset the TC and give it a new configuration... Use very short names, without spaces and pure alphanumeric characters. Test first without password... It should work fine... Then add a password... Make sure that it is as pure of 8 to 20 alphanumeric characters.

    Hot Mail (which I don't like) seems to work.

    On E-mail MSN - Cannot send or what I get Emails (all once in a while, we get... and when I go to Hotmail... arrived at 22). Spoke with 13 technicians, deleted all files (alt/shiftF9) 7 times. Some of the questions:

    MSN Inbox (on top left over files) continues to go to the yellow throttle and says I am offline and yet I am on line. Connection errors are the following: 0x80072efd / 0 x 0 80191002 / 0x80072eff deleted trash e.a. returns every time. Mark an unread Email and it is deleted. Tons and tons and tons of other issues. Microsoft Techs seem to be stuck on Shift/Alt/F9 and nothing is improving and sometimes gets worse... as the last time I alt/shif/F9...folders came back but old e-mail appears. Electronic mail in white and empty window. Super slow navigation & usually stops and tell me that I'm not online. Diagnosis of micro said: I am and contact MFG. A tech admitted that a new server is entered in questions. But 6weeks and I pay for the service? A tech says it's at my end frustrated, I got another PC, downloaded my MSN dialup and now... I stillHAVE questions about the addition of the computer. The 2 computers are not connected. Stand alones. Telephone lines checked. Audited modems. Microphone seems to keep secrets.

  • Can I allow an application for one person on my family share but does not allow for each other?

    Can I allow an application for one person on my family share but does not allow for each other?

    You can't delegate who has access and who doesn't have access to the applications. You can lock devices with age restrictions, so only items appropriate age are at their disposal. Or you can hide your list purchases. The purchased app can then be displayed when you want to share with someone else, then be hidden again once the application is downloaded on their device.

    I hope this helps.

  • Single-pass does not work for Web sites after the last update of firefox

    Single-pass does not work for Web sites after the last update of firefox. This works in IE and Chrome and it works under windows (when starting the computer), but not with any website in Firefox.

    Firefox 30 spent some less commonly used "Always turned on" plugins "asking to activate. To check and change this to SimplePass, you can use the page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Then on the right, check the control on the right side of the SimplePass.

    You may need to exit Firefox and start it again before it takes effect.

    A little luck?

  • Firefox Sync does not work for Tablet Android Nexus 10.

    Firefox Sync works for 2 PCs, but does not work for an Android tablet. It is said, that the tablet was connected successfully, I checked the bookmarks and history options to be synchronized and or bookmarks, or history of the browser has not been updated on my tablet.
    No errors. Anything not came to the Android device.
    I tried with 2 different synchronization profiles - same story for the second profile.

    Please note that we are currently living with Sync server issues. Our technicians are working around the clock to the question of setting and ensure that it works at its best. The current option is to try to keep synchronized and if you are able to synchronize properly, we recommend to not not to sync more than once every 2 hours.

    Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

  • When a pdf file is open in a tab, automatic scrolling of the cushion does not work in the other tabs, but only for the specific PDF tab.

    The Tablet/mouse scroll function does not work for the other tabs when a PDF file is opened.

    Hi ESNE,.

    Have you checked to see if your PDF is updated? You should take a look at the Base files display PDF in Firefox article. There are lots of good information in there. You should try both of the suggested PDF Add-ons to see if this solves the problem.
