Hi all, I'm looking for a wifi box that is able to bridge one 5ghz SSID to another new 2.4ghz SSID. Basically i already have a Wifi box which presents two SSID's. One is 2.4Ghz, the other is 5ghz. I have some external devices with weak signal (CCTV and ring doorbell), so I want to present...

No - I did read the BIOS release notes and didn't see anything, but I'll update the bios anyway. I assume that updates the AGESA as well?

Thanks for the reply :) My machine hasn't done it since, so lets hope it was a one off.

Hi all, This morning my PC powered itself off which it's never done before. I powered it on again, only for it to power itself off again shortly after making it into windows. Recognising that these are symptoms of overheating, I powered on again but this time entered the bios, which told me...

I was in exactly the same situation. After phoning them and explaining they were treating the same claim twice, they removed one of them and that brought the price down :)

Urgh - just seen the original post was from months ago. Ignore :)

Thanks - it was just curiosity really. To be honest I would imagine it more along the lines of getting an equivalent vehicle at an equivalent payment rate. So for example if you buy a 30k car and pay £300 a month on it. After a year a third party writes it off. Market value is £20k, and you...

Hi all, I've been wondering how car insurance works with a car on finance. For example a lot of insurers state that if you own a brand new car which is written off in the first year of ownership, they'll replace it with another brand new one. 1) So, lets say you brought a brand new car worth...

For that, i'd probably suggest getting two graphics cards as it may work out cheaper. 2 cheap GPU's, with 2 outputs on each will do what you want - just need to check the motherboard will take it.

Goodie - I had the exact same issue. Moved into a new build, existing supplier was Scottish Power which the home builder said they'd move my account over into my name. Scottish Power I had to chase repeatedly and in the end it took them about 6 months to set up an account. When they finally...

I'm in the same boat as you - FTTP, I went for 300Mb in the end. To be honest, I found the HH5 gave a pretty good wifi signal - I just didn't like it very much so I put in an ASUS RT-88U. In all honesty, the signal is better than the HH5 but not by much - if your HH5 is struggling, I think...

Use the checker on the bt website i linked to further up. :) It's unlikely though - I have a fibre optic cable coming into my house - as well as a UPS mounted on the wall lol (provided by BT). It's because my phone line is over the fibre as well, so the ups is there so I can still use the...

If you wanna try to get an idea of pricing, go to https://www.productsandservices.bt.com/products/broadband-packages/ and choose "I dont know my landline number" and then enter in the post code CM17 9SA (Thats not my post code btw, although it is near), and then for the house number pick 24 High...

Nice idea, but sadly that gave me 185Mb lol. Thats the only issue with the fast internet - you can't actually use it most of the time :)

Good shout - best result I've had yet :) http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5331655467 I love 300 MB :D:D Oh - I should clarify, this is on wifi too (haven't yet run the Cat6 to my PC)

After being stuck on rubbish internet for the last 10 years, I finally managed to get BT Option 4. The other day I heard a noise by the front door of my house, looked outside to see an Openreach lady connecting up the fibre :) Only problem now is i can't find a speedtest server capable of...

Hi, I have a MSI X99A Sli Plus which is unstable in games but only from a cold boot for the first 10 minutes. i.e. if I switch my PC on from cold, and fire up a game, I can guarantee it will hard lock within the first few mins. If i hard reset the PC, it'll run fine after that. I've...

Thanks - that's useful - will take a look at their website :)

I'm going to be moving into a rented accommodation for 6 months so need a phone line and FTTC isp for 6 months. Can anyone recommend one that does short contracts? Alternatively does anyone know one with a good break clause - for example Be Unlimited were 12 month contracts but the penalty...

Hi The answer to this question depends on your motherboard and your settings. For example my motherboard (the MSI X99 SLI Plus) has bios settings that drastically affect the speed of the SSD. If I set the M2 slot to auto, then I get the full speeds as seen in the image below. I believe this...
