Should I tell my neighbor their wi - fi connection is "open"!

I use Windows 10.  In my network settings, I can see a lot of connections from my neighbor and see that all but one is secure.  Connection of my neighbor says open! ».  Is not dangerous?  Should I tell them?  They use Windows 7.

This depends a bit on how you go with your neighbor, but it would be nice to do because Yes, it's dangerous.

It also depends on their supplier. My standard ISP router generates both networks Wi - Fi, a secure and the other open. Full only connects to the WAN port and uses network security to only allow their clients to connect.

My colleagues clients can connect to my router under control all the bandwidth, I can connect to either of their router, so I have thousands of hotspots across the country

  • I want to install the Commander of the force star wars on my new PC, but says it is not compatible with windows 64-bit. I try the windows XP mode and it tells me that I need to connect a hardware device 3D

    I want to install the Commander of the force star wars on my new PC, but says it is not compatible with windows 64-bit. I have try on windows XP mode and it tells me that I need to connect a hardware 3D device. I really love the game and I want to use it again.

    Any old copy of Windows XP that could be installed in the host system? If you do not, it should be available at a modest price of an online seller. Perhaps (I'm not too), even an old Windows 98 TO work. The game (using a 3D engine) will not work under pure DOS, so you need a Windows environment so that it can work. Just FYI: If you get this old classic to run, new issues may arise. Known are the "mss32.dll" runtime error (you may need to replace this file with the newer version of SW:KOTOR 1) and the issue of video cutscenes (the games uses an obsolete video codec, Smacker - either you find an old *.) DLLS for it or have you convert movies in a modern format).

    In conclusion: get old games to run on software/hardware modern (it is not only a problem of BONE) is one of the most fascinating and rewarding challenges to a real fan. But do not expect it will not be easy "out of the box" (or simply insert a CD).

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

    This a complete scam and one that has become very common these days. . Don't think anything such a caller said, do nothing that he tells you to do and hang up on him immediately.

  • How to tell if neighbors wifi interfere with mine?

    I have a HP Pavilion p6610f Desktop 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium SP2 with more than half of my memory of 4 GB left. (not sure what is important here) I called my (Qwest) IP on wifi problems and asked them why the icon in my taskbar shows only 2 out of possible 5 bars of reception "WIFI"?

    We did a thorough check and they said that he has no problem on their end and that it was probably a software program interfere.  I ran troubleshooting software and malware in Windows and Windows 'Fix - it' I ran HP virus and spyware scans.  I checked my programs and features for all unwanted or unauthorized programs may have slipped with another download. I erased all the browser caches.  I ran cleaning software.

    I don't understand data on "performance data logs" there is a certain 'scream', but the overall number is the same as it was before = 4.5.    I have Windows Microsoft Security Essentials.

    My computer is also buffering constantly on facebook, now, when he had not done so before.

    My router is in the same place, as it has been for the last 3 years, about 3 1/2 feet of my computer.

    It is actually the constant buffering that bothers me more than the absence of bars on my wifi icon, but the icon is the only thing that I have to go over there makes me think of something blocking the signal, (and what IP technology).

    I contacted HP community forum and they gave me some possible things to do which did not help.

    I was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem and if they knew how to fix it?

    And, a new neighbor moved in, (which I couldn't talk to him) all the time I have the time I began to experience all buffers.  I address secure wifi with my own password and nobody knows, because he is a little new.

    Thank you in advance for your time and trouble.

    Back this small black antenna important enough for me to hunt for him and put it up on my desktop?

    Yes.

    You have two antennas on your router... but this small black antenna, this is what allows to connect your computer to the router.  Think of it this way: in front of the cable TV, a TV station could have an antenna on top of a very large building (e.g., the Empire State Building in New York City), or at least on a tower that was several hundred feet high.  This corresponds to two antennas on your router.  Your necessary home TV antenna on the roof, or worse, a pair of "rabbit ears" on top of the TV (maybe you're not old enough to Remember these).  This corresponds to the small antenna connected to your computer.  If the antenna on the roof fell, you wouldn't get very good reception.

    If when the antenna came down the wire has become disconnected from your computer, it's almost certainly the cause of your problem.  If the cable is connected, the location of the antenna can still be the cause of your problem.

    Go to the back of your computer, if the antenna wire is still connected, gently pull on it.  If you're lucky, the antenna would not taken what anyone and you can retrieve it as a fish transport.  When you get it, put it somewhere near the router, or at least where there is no metal object between the antennas on the router and the small black antenna.

    If the antenna wire is is dislocated and fell behind your office as well as the antenna, you will have to do some excavation work.

    The answer to your question is a bit complicated.

    Your Ethernet connection is a connection of 100 Mbps.  It is approximately 12.5 megabytes per second.

    The part of your ZyXEL Q1000z wireless is a 'wireless-n' device, theoretically capable of 300 Mbit/s data rate.  The wireless adapter on your computer is 802.11 b/g/n, so, theoretically, you can use the full capacity of your router.  In practice, however, wireless n will give you probably a flow around 160 Mbps or which translates into 20 megabytes per second.  Thus, if you receive a good wireless connection, your wifi would be faster than your Ethernet.

    As the radio connection between the router and your wireless adapter becomes poorer, either because of distance or because the antenna is disconnected or blocked by an object that is not transparent to radio signals, the wireless connection speed will decrease significantly.

    It is important to remember that these speeds (data transfer rate) are transferred between the router and your computer data.  Unless you are dealing with other computers on your local network, your data transfer rate will probably be limited by the speed of your connection to the Internet.  Except if you pay a cable connection high speed, your Internet connection is likely to be much slower than the 100 Mbps which are at the nominal speed of the Ethernet connection.

  • Tidynetworks replaces the data that I consult. How should we tell?

    When display information catalog or craiglist, TidyNetwork.com and probably others are replacing the area that I'm trying to read/view. It started only recently. I've upgraded to the latest version of Firefox for which is a problem. I also downloaded a software from CNET that appear to download more that I was asking for. I tried to limit the site but it seems to do anyway.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables some settings and disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    (If you are using an additional theme, place you in default theme.)

    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Mode without failure of Firefox in the Help menu by clicking on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item:

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

    I have only one view. Does that mean I have a problem.
    I am trying to connect to my ISP using an ethernet cable. He always says check cable connections.

    Near the port of LAN, there are two LEDs available: orange and green. When the LAN cable is OK and connection is where the Green led is permanent. The orange LED blinks when data transfer is available. Please check it carefully.

    If the Green LED is not on after connecting the cable LAN there are three possibilities:
    The LAN cable is defective
    Your router settings are bad (MAC settings or IP address)
    Or in the worst cases the LAN card on your laptop is defective (check in the Device Manager)
