wifi

Hi guys, Posting this under networking because I think that's likely the underlying issue but I have a very odd error that I can't resolve. Starting yesterday I am getting 0X800CCC1A errors on outgoing email - your server does not support the connection encryption type you have specified...

Hi Anyone knows if situation remains as before regarding Lenovo Thinkpad 2018 range? As you know, if you purchased a Thinkpad notebook, you couldn't use another wifi card besides ones at their service parts list (usually not newest models). It's a pity as you couldn't improve wifi reception by...

I am unsure of the correct terminology to describe the feature I am looking for. I would like to get a router that connects to my regular DSL modem. I would also like to occasionally hook my network to the internet via the " wifi hotspot" feature of my phone. I heard the term WiFi on WAN or...

Last night, my ethernet just entirely stopped working after disconnecting from TorGuard, and nothing has worked to fix it so far. Windows troubleshooter tells me "Ethernet does not have a valid IP configuration". I am almost always connected to TorGuard, and have encountered issues like this...

Hi all! This is my first post here, so I hope I'm not breaking any rules :) Also: non-native English speaker. Straight to the point: I have a router (crappy one given by ISP) in my living room on the ground floor of this building. I also have a basement, that is under my living room, where I've...

Hi there! I'm trying to figure out if I should get one very powerful wifi router (something like the TP-Link AC5400 was recently on sale for $135) or two cheaper routers (2x ASUS TM AC1900s, which are selling for $55 each on sale), with one set up as an access point. I have a two story 2000sqft...

I recently bought a new router (Tenda F300), because the old one started failing. I set it up as usual, PPPoE and everything. Everything was working great until I turned on my wired PC and noticed that the WiFi speed drops down to around 1mbit/s. I tried absolutely everything from restarting the...

The building I am at now provides wifi, and when connecting iPhone I get the 'security recommendation' message about making my wifi use WPA2 AES. Anyway, I contacted the building manager who spoke with the internet people, and I was told both were enabled to allow more devices to be able to...

Hi folks, I'm in need of a new cell phone and am looking very hard at the Moto G5 plus - excellent price point. My main hesitation is a lack of 802.11ac. My 4 year old S4 has it so I thought it strange for a new phone not to have it also. I can't find anything about it in an reviews they just...

Hey all, question-loaded post here from a novice about home networking options. Did some homework but want to see what this forum thinks. Seems if I want to extend wifi coverage in my new home I have 3 options: cat 6-run ap's, powerline extension, wifi mesh system. 1. Of the three, it seems...

I recently updated my Macbook Pro to Sierra 10.12.3 and my wifi has been extremely slow since. Running SpeedTest.net I only get 2MB Down / 3MB Up. Other devices on the same wifi network get 60MB Down / 30MB Up which is my regular speed. Things I tried that did not resolve the problem: -...

Hello all. So I live in a 2-story home and the WiFi doesn't get a great signal upstairs. So I bought a wireless router to use as an access point upstairs. Here is the router model: http://www.tp-link.com/us/products/details/TL-WR841N.html. I read multiple articles on how to set this up and I...

I am living in a rv park, with free WiFi. However i am only allowed to connect one device for the duration of my stay. To first connect to the WiFi I must enter my access code and agree to terms on a browser (like a hotel). Once that code is used only the device that entered it will be allowed...

Okay so to make a long story short I have 100 mbps Internet, and for whatever reason have trouble streaming 4K content. I had an older ISP provided modem/router combo... I've since replaced it with an Arris SBG6700-AC. I have a Sony Bravia X810C which is obviously a 4k TV which supports 2160p...
