How does a switch work and how would I go about setting it up? Got this switch what software do I need to run this. This guy at future shop told me I didn’t need a router just to get this switch but I can’t get it to work on my friends computer so I can use it on my computer.

I have a cable modem and need to connect to a netgear vpn router. I’ve hooked up all the cables and it’s like my computer doesn’t know its there. My ip address doesn’t match the router address & I can’t login to the router address. How do I fix this? FYI, If you hadn’t guessed already…I don’t know much about this stuff, so the simpler the explaination, the better. Thanks so much!

I was using a insparon 1720. I got a new laptop and it does the same thing I think it might have something to do with my network configuration. Any help would be appreciated.

[…] Windows comes with a built-in firewall that is enabled by default. The problems is that if a virus can infect Windows and if it case disable your antivirus scanner, then it just as easily can render your firewall useless. The answer is a hardware firewall: a separate computer – usually running Linux – that acts as a gateway between your PC and the Internet. Even if you have a virus on your PC, the firewall will prevent this virus from communicating with the outside world. The firewall itself is located outside of the virus’s reach and so it can do nothing to compromise it. Moreover, an external firewall can scan all network traffic and it can catch viruses before they ever get a chance to infect your PC. You can read more about hardware firewalls here. […]
