OK couple questions.

I just got a routerso my brother can get his laptop connected. It is a D-Link wireless router, DI 524, and since I set it up (my comp is still hardwired to it thru ethernet) it appears to have blocked my utorrent from working.

 

Also, everytime i choose shutdown thru windows, my computer actually restarts. Any reason for this, or every time i reboot it says my system has recovered from a serious error.

 

Over the past week, i have scanned my computer with everything I have (avast, asquared, AVG spyware, windows defender, spybot) then ran a few other programs (Tuneup utilities, ccleaner, PC doctor) and have defraged my HD, but have no idea why this error keeps coming up. Oh and i did a system restore to the start of the month too.

 

If this keeps up, I'm just going to use my recovery console to start afresh.

open your port for utorrent.

do that through 192.168.1.1

or whatever your routers number is.

 

applications/gaming

 

or just go to portforward.com

 

as for the restarting: open your comp

and check cable connections, etc.

 

clean the dust while you're in there...

unplug, alcohol paper towels. light on the alcohol.

 

turn off the puter before checking connections and

cleaning dust bunnies.

 

update your routers firmware, too.

I've had my imac for almost 2 years now, and its running pretty slow.

 

I was told that you don't have to reboot macs to get them up to speed like you do PC's.

 

Wrong.

 

Or I just fucked mine up.

 

Anyone here with a Mac know how to tune it up nice?

 

I never had to restart it before.

 

Now its once a day.

 

Any ideas?

 

I feel like I have hundreds of programs I dont use any more and 100s of partially downloaded torrents.

 

That and I hid like 10 gigs of pr0n with a 3rd party program and have no idea what proggie it was or what i named the file.

why you say nah?? i posted the same thing you did

 

and again Comcast is the 2nd largest ISP they have pretty much everything thing you can think of blocked ( to all normal users)

 

 

 

get utorrent /go to pref/ select protocol encryption/ ( use higher port numbers like 65410 or anything in the 60000 - 65535 range

 

use the TOR or onion routers which i just posted to get around also

 

 

but.............. bit shaping changes all the time and sense comcast is very big, that they prolly got these tricks blocked yer best bet is to change providers
