Okay, here's the deal....

 

I got a new p.c. made by Dell. Not exactly legit.

 

I want to download full on albums from sites as rapid share and others. Like you know when someone from the ooontz makes a thread for a new album coming out and everyone jumps on it. Anyway I don't know what torrents are or any of this fancy talk. I am legally retarded when it comes to this computer stuff. So help me out here. What do I need to down load all these albums and stuff. If you don't mind explaining all this to me that would be dope too.

 

Props will be given forever.

 

-Thanks

Fall registrating starts today. I already explained my situation in here. To recap

im trying to stack a computer network type associates on top of my unrelated BA.

I have been spending an hour or 2 per day most days with Mac 10.5 OSX and office 2003. Ive got the machines, the books, and the time right now

There are quite a few different programs. Tonite i intend to register. The one

I was looking at takes more of a network specialist angle. There is a class on

UNIX and Linux, Novell cert test prep, Network + test prep amd A+ test prep. This

is a certificate program in and of itself. In addition there are a few other classes. Internet security, Windows server admin, network concepts, ect

 

Basically what i was wondering... in the professional opinions around here. With

the skills being taught would i be considered employable?

I dont have money to waste and i rather not waste my time either.

A+ and Net+ you can study for yourself. you'll do fine. just make sure you

study. there are a few programs you can "find" on demonoid, etc.

pass4sure, etc.

 

If I were you, I would go into security. Not this "internet security" business, more

in the realm of tiger team type security. A+ and Net+ first and foremost (or just Net+, A+ isn't required for much of anything unless you want to work for Compusa or whatever.

 

Ethical Hacking might be a direction you want to go in. Check this out

Anyhow, security is going to be bigger than it is now. You can get work for corporate and/or government or consult...big money in consulting.

Sometimes you can set your router to be accessed according to your MAC address.

In my router its called Access Control, if you turn it on you need to input the devices MAC address.

If it is not listed there you will still be able to see it you just won't be able to connect to it.

Check your settings.

How do I do this?

 

This problem started 2 weeks ago, it was fine the 3 years before.

 

open start - run - type 'cmd'

 

from the command prompt, run 'ipconfig'

 

look for your 'default gateway', and type that number in the browser.

 

google your model number of your router, and get the default login/pass for it.

 

unfortunately since i don't know your router or whatever, i can't walk you through it. but it's like seph said, it'd be in the access control section under mac address filtering. also if you're on vista, it has this real bad habit of forgetting all your info, and when you connect to your own home network that you connected to a fucking billion times, it'll give you local access only (i.e. only to other computers on your network).

 

vista's fucked. google's your friend.

  • 2 weeks later...

I turned my PC on this morning and within 5 minutes of it beng on I noticed the smell of burning plastic coming from within. It did not lose power so I decided to shut down the machine manuelly as quickly as possible. I opened it up and could not locate anything that looked like it had been the source of the burning smell and am leaving the PC off.

 

Does anybody have any idea what might have caused this? Would it be safe to turn on? Or would that risk frying the motherboard or cause some other damage? Possibly related to the power supply to the fans? Appreciate any help....

Ok gents, need some help.

 

Bought a internet camera designed to be viewed remotely via the interweb. I set up my router so that I can now access it from any browser. Still can't figure out how to see my camera. I gave it a static IP address so that it's always the same from my router, but I'm confused on how I would access that via the internet.

 

Casek or Seffiks I'm willing to give you access to my router if you think that may help, but if you have any suggestions I would appreciate it greatly.
