I can't watch videos, for whatever reasons, my DSL combined with the wireless card I have in my HP tower, doesn't afford me the needed bandwidth to stream videos.
The Dell that is hard wired to the router does fine, and the two laptops running with wireless do fine, but my 6 year old HP just doesn't seem to handle the slower speed of the wireless connection.
It worked fine when I was hard wired to Comcast cable broadband when I lived down hill.
Hmm- that's not the clip of Leary I was thinking of. He says his solution to the drug problem isn't less drugs, but more drugs- and "give them to the right f*cking people." His suggestion was Motley Crue. I think the Onion did an excellent job depicting something similar.
Why would I call anyone? I am a IT professional, I'm well aware of the problem, it's a 6 year old computer and I'm running a wireless network card against slower DSL and I have 3 newer computers here that hog bandwidth.
The step-critters spend all their computer time watching videos, that manages to take up most of the bandwidth.
I assumed you were an IT professional. The link was an attempt at humor. Me, I'm just a glorified typist with 3 windows VMs and a linux one stuck in front of me right now...that said, I'm the one everyone in my family calls when there's a problem with their computer.
crap...machine #5 just finished rebooting...off to do some more typing.
Hardwired is way better than wireless. i always plug in if I can rather than wifi. I have doubts about the dot N routers keeping up with simple wired ethernet.
