I just bought a new Bell Novatel X950 Turbo-Card and WOW, it it ever fast! (HSPA). The problem I'm having is that when I log on and hit "CONNECT" it asks me for a password. Simply pressing enter gets me logged on. No password was ever established, nor does it require one to connect. how I can stop this prompt? I looked at "preferences", 'tools', EVERYWHERE... can't find it.
View 3 RepliesMy home network has always been: SSID broadcast off, WAP2 TKIP+AES, MAC filtering and limited DHCP numbers. Yesterday, I connected the 13.3" MBP to the network and initial manual connection was fine. However, if I turn off and turn on AirPort or restart the computer, it doesn't re-connect automatically. The only time it re-connects is when I enable SSID broadcast. Is this the only option for MBPs (i.e., no auto connection to hidden SSID networks)?

I keep hearing this loud bell at 8 am and 8 pm.
I am running WindowsVista on an HP Pavillion DV9700
laptop.
Is this a software or hardware issue and how do I turn the darn thing off? It's so loud that if I'm concentrating on something else it's startles the heck out of everyone in the room.
I have notebook Packard Bell EasyNote TV11HC 33124g50mnks. When I bought it, it has a pre-installed OEM Windows 8.
I have formatted a hard disk drive and install another OS. Windows 8 have been erased. Recovery part has be erased too.
I need to reinstall Windows 8 and activate it via OEM license. How to do it?
If I will download a original MSDN .iso image and install Windows 8 from this, will it activated? What image is better to use? Can I use Windows 8.1 instead Windows 8 by this OEM license?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI would like to use the MBP as a second desktop by buying the bluetooth keyboard and bluetooth mouse, and connecting to the 24" ultrasharp with a 1900x1200 res. The problem is, when I MIRROR the display, The resolution is off as it wont do the 1900x1200 because the 15" MBPRO can't do it. I'm connecting via DVI-D, but have the option for HDMI, displayport, or anything else with this monitor as its brand new.

If I change the password on the network (WPA2) it will work fine for a while. iPhone works fine on the same network and MBP works fine at school on unsecured network. it's the last generation, right before unibody

Here's the speed test results.

Will work out the bluetooth problem later, but for now its a nice backup for when no wi-fi is about.

I own a 24" ACD, the newer aluminum ones and already found a few converters to connectiing my PS3, 360, etc to my display. However, the native resolution of the screen is 1920 by 1200 pixels. Therefore requiring an EXPENSIVE HDMI upscaler since PS3 max output is only 1080p.
My question.
if I connect it without an upscaler what happens? Does it stretch to fit the screen? or does it just have a small portion of the screen black?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI bought the Macbook Pro 13" on March 21st, couldn't wait for the refresh.
Now my question is, how do I connect to the external monitors, as in which Mini Displayport do I need to buy? I see a lot of displayports at Fry's for under $20 for Mac but don't know which part number exactly do I need for my MBP.
Another question is, I might want to get the Mini Displayport to DVI. Would DVI to HDMI work from the Apple Mini Displayport? Would DVI to VGA work from the Apple Mini Displayport also? I have alot of DVI to VGA/HDMI adapters so I was wondering would it work if I just bought the Mini Displayport to DVI.
My HP Envy m6 laptop cannot connect to our wifi connection and only connects using the cable connection, ethernet.
It was still fine when I downloaded windows 8.1 but all of a sudden displays limited/no connectivity. I tried everything I can including resetting tcp ip settings thru command prompt, finding other drivers till someone suggested me to put my laptop back to windows 8. Still didn't fix the problem. Now, my laptop does not access wifi nor detect any wireless connection whether our home wifi, or others.
how do I disable the trackpad on new Macbook aluminum when I connect a mouse?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI recently went on a plane trip back home and I am having major issues with wifi connection in my family's house.
They have AT&T router/modem (combo?) and no one else in the house has any issues connecting with it.
What happens is I can connect and browse for a couple minutes or so, but sporadically, the internet will just stop working (not the wifi, it still shows my connection exists). I just won't be able to browse or make use of the internet at all!
I wonder if I might have banged it up or something on the plane ride? Since other laptops in the household are not having wifi issues, I am lead to believe it is just me.

I have the first generation XPS 1640, the one with the ATI 3670, and was wondering what kind of cable I would need to get it connected to my TV.
That said, it's not a HD tv (so a HDMI cord won't work). I need some kind of VGA to RCA cable.
Easy enough to find, but I've encountered some user reviews of these cables saying something along the lines of:
"Please remember that this cable will only work with VGA devices which can be configured for component video input".
Getting to know my new Vostro 1510. My first laptop.
Can you safely connect to AC "while" the laptop is running on battery? Or do you need to shut down first?
I have dv6700 which came with a s-video out and I cant thank it enough for the countless times it has come in handy. Now my friend bought her dv4t and it came with a vga-out only. I know there is a HDMI port, but we are trying to connect to a SD-TV here and that doesnt support HDMI. I bought a vga-to-rca adapter in the past to use with IBM T60 notebook and it didnt work on that. Probably that notebook inherently didnt support tv-out from that vga port. Does HP notebook have the capability to do tv-out from vga port and if yes, what do I need to connect it to a standard definition tv set?

I have a Dell Precision M4400 with the 1510 wireless card. I have a question regarding my wifi card.
My school's wifi only shows up as one access point in the connection manager, but if I scan for wireless signals it shows several channels. The problem I am having is it seems quite random, depending on the signal strength I am guessing, my laptop connects to one of the B channels instead of the G ones.
If I go to the Driver Properties in the Device Manager, I can force it to choose A first, but not G instead B. Does anyone know a workaround to make it choose G first instead of B/G? Also,
I hate installing any Dell software that is not necessary, specially the Dell Wifi connection software since it's 300+ MB install, but does anyone who does use it know if it would allow me to specify G over B?
So just moved and went to setup my office again and everything works fine except my M1530 cant connect over wifi. I have Roudrunner, a Linksys WRT55AG, Vista Desktop, M1530 laptop, HP laptop, and iphone. Everything except my M1530 can access the internet.
It says that I am connected to my wirless network but not the internet. I can access the internet when my laptop is directly plugged in via lan cable to router but whenever I disconnect the lan cable and try to go online over the wireless I cant! Under device manager everything looks fine except "isatap" it says there is an error code 31.
I have Dell Vostro A860 running Windows Vista. It has I-394 and VGA ports.

Is there a way to do this and if yes how? I route audio output from laptop to my 5.1 system via Pioneer A/V receiver.
