Media Streaming by
Endulini
Hi Everyone,
I am using a NAS for storing all my media files (photos, DVDs, music etc)
and was interested in the possibilty of using this drive to stream the info
around my house but all the systems I can find rely on a PC to at least
facilitate this. Are there any systems that would be able to read the NAS

I think I need a NAT solution... right??? by
MrGibbage
I am on Cox HS internet, using DynDNS. WRT54G router. I have a PC that stays on 24/7 (windows XP). I am trying to set up some IP webcams for home security and they have built in webservers, but they can only run on port 80. Cox blocks port 80. The only solution I can think of is to set up a port forwarding rule in the router to forward requests such as mydyndns.org:12341 for camera one or...

Connection Keeps Dropping and Network Discovery turns itself off by
Endulini
Hi All,
My connection keeps dropping every once in a while and my computer keeps
turning off network discovery. I'm not sure that the two events are linked
but it smells kind of fishy to me. On an IT colleague's suggestion I tried
disabling the uPnP setting on my router although this doesn't seem to have
helped. The dodgy connection I thought might be due to the microfilters but
I'm not...

Using Vista/Win7 common roaming profiles by
Guy[_5_]
Our school environment is currently on XP. We find with roaming profiles
and multiple users sharing the login (student class logins), you end up with
too many corrupt profiles left on machines all around causing all sorts of
problems. To get around this, I have a single user profile that accounts
only have read only access too when they log on. When they log off no

disable automatic search for shared printers by
tricky300
Hi,
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
On Win XP there was a tick box under folder options view tab to
enable/disable automatic searching for network folders and printers. I cannot
find the equivalent for this in Vista Business or Vista Ultimate.
Does anyone know how to do this in Vista?

Sharing issue by
Barb
I want to be able to move a file across my home network (both PCs are Vista).
I have shared the destination folder with "Everyone" to be a co-owner. I do
not have passwords set up.
I can "see" the destination folder across the network and can open documents
in it, but it will not allow me to move files into it. The weird thing is, I
encountered this for the first time a couple of days...
