If you recently replaced your cable modem, it is most likely that your cable modem is setup as your router. You will need to access the cable modem directly and have it set to bridge mode where it only passes the straight signal to your router. Most people do not use an external router so cable modems are automatically set to be the router as well, thus making them a Gateway modem. The commands to do this sometimes are not available on the regular login and you might have to have a tech login under their special credentials which give higher access levels. Your router should simply start to work fine once this is done because the cable modem will disable all routing and firewalls and leave them up to your personal router. If you plug in a laptop directly to the cable modem and can access the internet, google whatsmyip and find out if your IP starts with a 10 or a 192. If it does, you have verified that your cable modem is doing the routing and needs to be changed to bridged mode.

Ativa lets me connect to internet, but most

That sounds very much like a DNS problem, if the address translation is not working properly.

One way to check on your DNS settings is ito open a command prompt (WIN-key+R), type "cmd" and hit "Enter". In the opening window type "ping www.google.com". The Result will look similar to this:


Pinging www.l.google.com [74.125.19.105] with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 74.125.19.105: bytes=32 time=32ms TTL=52
Reply from 74.125.19.105: bytes=32 time=33ms TTL=52
Reply from 74.125.19.105: bytes=32 time=32ms TTL=52
Reply from 74.125.19.105: bytes=32 time=32ms TTL=52

Ping statistics for 74.125.19.105:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 32ms, Maximum = 33ms, Average = 32ms


Now type google's IP address (in bold) into the address bar of your browser.Hit "Enter" and you should see google's search page. This means that your computer (or router) can't translate "human" addresses (like www.google.com) into IP addresses (like 74.125.19.105)

First check your computer:

Go back to your command prompt and type "ipconfig /all". The output will show the settings from all adapters and will like this:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes
Autoconfiguration Enabled . . : Yes
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.100

Lease Expires . . . . . . . . . . : Friday, July 17, 2009 09:41:52


Note here that the bold entries all point to my router. That meeans that
1. My default way to the outside world (internet) is through my router.
2. My computer gets it's IP address from the router (DHCP).
3. DNS requests are handled by my router.
Your router has the default IP address of 192.168.2.1 - this should be the number you see.
If that is not the case, here is how to change it:

  1. Open Windows Start menu.
  2. Open Control Panel.
  3. Classic view: Open Network Connections / Category view: Select Network and Internet Connections, and then Network Connections. (This opens the Local Area Connections Properties window)
  4. Double-click on your active LAN or Internet connection.
  5. Click Properties. (This opens the Local Area Connections Properties window.)
  6. In the General tab, highlight the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) item, and click Properties. (This opens the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window.)
  7. In the General tab, click "Obtain an IP address automatically", and "Obtain DNS server address automatically":
  8. Click OK.
  9. Click OK to close each window. (The last one might take a second or two, because it is applying the new settings


Now to your router...
How to set up DNS on your router:
Look at page 34 of your router manual. If you don't have one, you can download it from here.

There are several options which DNS server you want to use. One very popular service is OpenDNS (see link here). Their DNS server have the addresses
  1. 208.67.222.222
  2. 208.67.220.220
Enter these numbers in the WAN>DNS settings of your router.
Don't forget to save your new settings and you should be good to go.

Sorry for being so lengthy, but I wanted to walk you through all steps. If you have any more questions or something is not clear to you, just come back here and leave a comment - I'm happy to help.

I bought an hp 2211x

It is possible they aren't compatible but it is more likely the outfit you bought has something missing. Sometimes the speakers are integrated into the monitor but the connection to these is by a separate audio cable from the PC. If the speakers aren't integrated into the monitor you will need a suitable active speaker system that should arrive with a power supply and all other leads ready wired and just need plugging into the PC. Consulting the instruction manual is a good way of learning where to plug things in. Most conventional PCs have three jack sockets close together and some are usefully colour coded - One is audio out and another is audio in but I can't remember the third. It is possible your new PC is entirely USB and has many USB sockets but few of the more familiar sockets. If that is the case you will need a pair of USB speakers.,, I suggest you contact the supplier for advice...

My computer get a virus

You can try this software: Malwarebytes
You can get it from Malwarebytes.org.

I would suggest booting your computer in safe mode with networking. Download and run the file. This may fix you up.

And DO NOT run your computer without a good internet security package! That is just asking for trouble.

I purchased a mini tower

I would install the 'Windows Live Messenger' and use hotmail or another service linked to it. That's what I do.

I also would use a 'gadget' that has the weather on it which you can change the zip code on to get your local weather.

I wish you luck...:)

I need a product key

Have you actually purchased Visio, or are you just trying to get it for free?
As a software guy, I would have to advise against piracy. :)
There are several ways to get Visio for cheap. If you are a student, there are discounted versions available online and in stores. Also, you can check with your school for even cheaper options sometimes. Try the university bookstore if available. Or a Computer Science department maybe.
If you are working, and your company uses MS Office applications, find out if they have the "Microsoft at Home" program. You can get MS Office applications for really cheap that way. I can get Visio through my company's "Microsoft at Home" program for a few dollars.
