Connecting a Desktop (Upstairs) to a Downstairs hu...

Can someone advise me. I have a new Desktop upstairs, and the Hub downstairs.
I could use a wireless key - but am not confident the signal will be strong enough, so am investigating my options.
In the Desktop room upstairs I also have a spare phone socket. Can I use one of the BT Microfilters into the phone socket and connect the Desktop into the microfilet it via an ethernet cable ?
Would that then pick up the internet.....
Please can someone give me some advice.....

I personally would not recommend the Power Line plug options unless you have clear evidence of good interference suppression see
http://www.mds975.co.uk/Content/amateur_radio_BPL_interference_04.html
and Sect. 6.2 in
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_line_communication
also other sites such as
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=714651
http://www.frequencycast.co.uk/powerline.html
The HH is permitted to use up to 100 mW EIRP for the transmitter and this should be OK for the normal house. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi
Mine is upstairs with some 50ft of extension cable from the master socket downstairs. I have, in any case, seen two neighbours HHs and some four routers from my house at one time.

I have a B590 and have connected Dell desktop speakers w/subwoofer

I have a B590 and have connected Dell desktop speakers w/subwoofer from my Dell Dimension PC to it. It works pretty well except I'll get a quick buzzing sound every now and then. Any suggestions?

I should add...the buzzing occurs when playing music on YouTube....

Help! Playbook OS upgrade blew me away - cannot connect to Desktop SW anymore

I got notice of an OS upgrade and accepted it. After upgrading the OS and upgrading the Desktop and Driver on my Win 7/64-bit laptop, I can no longer successfully connect my Playbook to the Desktop Manager on my laptop.
OS is 2.0.1.358
BB Device Manager is 7.0
BB Desktop SW is 7.2011 (Bundle 38)
I have done everything I can thing of, rerunning the process 12 times without joy. My Playbook says, "Connected to Computer" and I can see the CD directory, but the Desktop SW says, "Disconnected" no matter what I do. I have tried multiple USB cables, rebooted both the PB and the laptop numerous times, yet each time I attempt to connect, the Desktop SW says "Disconnected."
I am hoping, since I made sure not to check the box to delete everything when I reinstalled the Desktop SW, that the pictures and apps I had installed on the initial version of 2.0 have not been tossed. Apparently, the AppStore does not keep track of what apps I have bought or installed previously, so I think they are all lost forever. I can reload many of the pictures I had on it before, but some I haven't transferred may be lost forever. I am not seeing a "safety net" - heck, my Amazon account remembers everything I put on my Kindle.
I had been doing a full backup via the Desktop SW every week, just in case, but if reinstalling the Desktop SW dumped everything I am going to have to find a safer and more reliable means of backing up in the future.
If you have any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate hearing them. I really would like to get my PB back into working order, preferably with all the apps and pictures I had on it before...

Can you start the "firmware recovery"-mode ? (Connect playbook powerd off to pc, then a message for recovery will appear?)
My W-Lan is completely secure. Wether I nor a hacker would use it with a playbook

Connecting to desktop error message

My Blackberry Curve 9300 regularly reverts to a screen saying 'connecting to desktop'. The phone then 'freezes' on that screen and I cannot do anything and the only solution is to open the back, remove and replace the battery and wait for the phone to reboot. This seems to do the trick but it's happening quite frequently which is a major nuisance, particularly since the reboot process takes such an age. Is there anything I can do to stop this happening?

Hello bedbeck and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
What version of the Desktop Software are you using?
Does your Desktop Manage produce an error message or does it reposed and your device freezes? If you get an error message, can you please provide the full error you are seeing?
Thanks!

Why iPhone, iPad, iPod cameras don't connect to desktops/laptops /macmini,

why iPhone, iPad, iPod cameras don't connect to desktops/laptops /macmini, why... ...
Mr. jobs would hv helped me
it it just so simple ...these people are working on icloud, photostream etc etc
think .....if we have a wireless link with the camera of iphone we can record movies and carry out editing at the same moment on desktops that too wirlesssly
its just like have a one way facetime with our desktops......wow
eventually apple people will come up with this same idea later some time
but the question is why it doesnt connect why?

They do.
Standby = press the Power button
Power off = Press and hold Power button then slide the red power off slider.
Reset = Press and hold both Reset adn Home till you see the Apple logo.
This option will help to avoid pressing power button less number of times and gives better user experience.
Because it is better to not push the power button and more enjoyable to not push it?

Error-6753 when trying to connect my desktop PC

I just replaced my old wireless router with a Time Capsule Wireless N router and it works great wirelessly with my MBPro and MB, but trying to connect my desktop PC with the ethernet cable is not working. I cannot connect to the internet and the utility is not working, I keep getting the error code-6753. I set up the wireless network first, and then tried to connect the desktop PC. Can anyone help? I ran the disk and installed the utility and through that is where I am getting the error.

The utilities, provided on the CD, are not required for the PC to access the Internet through the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn). They are only necessary for administering the base station.
If your PC is currently configured as a DHCP client, it shouldn't have any issues connecting by Ethernet. The AEBSn will assign the appropriate IP addresses required for connectivity to the Internet ... just like it does for wireless clients.

Playbook will not connect with Desktop Software

Playbook won't connect with desktop software any longer. Seems to have started after latest update to 2.0. Still working fine with my Torch 9810, but not with the Playbook. I even tried reinstalling the Desktop software, but no go. Tried to "forget" Playbook, but now I can't even add it as a device any longer!

possible you need to uninstall Device Manager, not Desktop Software.
Disconnect the PB from the computer.
Uninstall the Device Manager.
Reboot your computer (for good measure)
Connect the PB using the USB cable.
Now you should see a PlayBook CD-ROM.
In that CD-ROM you will find version 7 of the Device Manager, install it.
Once installed disconnect the PB from the computer.
Wait for about 15 seconds then plug it back in.
Windows should detect new device and start Device Manager. It may take up to two minutes for windows to detect and properly install.
Then device manager will map 'z' drive to the PB.

BB 8900 wont connect to Desktop Manager

Hey guys. My BB 8900 wont connect to desktop manager on my Mac. This seems strange to me, as my bold 2 connects fine. Here is the problem:
- Connect BB, desktop Manager asks for device password
- Enter Password
- Device Manager says "connecting"
- Then it stops trying to connect
Any idea what could cause this?
BTW - mass storage mode is on
Thanks in advance!

Hey i tried removing battery but that didn't help

Airport express connects to internet upstairs, often conks out downstairs

Hi. I have an ibook G4, system 10.3.9. Upstairs in my house where I keep my Airport Express router, my computer connects to the wireless network fine, and Safari / Mail programs fine. Downstairs (just one floor down), I can still connect to the network, but sometimes (not always) Safari /Mail just does not connect. Most common reason stated in window: "unable to find PPoe". Bizzarre, given that in Network connection window often says 'Connected via PPoe". Annoying to say the least.
Any suggestions?
Some additional info: I have a cordless phone downstairs and all I need to do is sit near it, and I get a weaker wireless signal. Even when the phone isn't being used. And yet other times, the signal is fine. Maddening.

Thank you for responding, Duane, I'll give it a try. I suspect the cordless phone is the culprit. I do wonder though, if it is why my Safari and Mail aren't kicking in even if the Wireless Network is working fine.
If I may repeat that part of the issue: often, when downstairs, I actually can connect to the wireless network, and I see in the network connection window the words "Connected via PPoe", yet Safari will not connect to the internet, claiming "could not find PPoe"; and Mail will not connect to the online server, instead reading "working offline" no matter what I do. At such times it's almost as if Safari and Mail are in a different non-functioning universe than my functioning wireless network. Why won't they go along for the ride?

Connecting Two Desktop Macs

I have two desktop macs in my home one upstairs in a bedroom and the other downstairs in a living room. Neither have a airport card but I do have two routers. I have a broadband connection coming via my phone landline.I am able to connect either to the net individually but cannot have both connected at the same time.
So now to my question. Is is posible to have both running simulataneously and to have them linked for backup purposes.
What do I need to do or is this possible by bridging my router?

I have a router connected to each mac and both are going into phone sockets in their respective rooms. I do not want to have a long eternet cable connecting both to the same router. The prefered option is two seperate routers that can run simultaneously and also one mac to be able to see the other over the net. The broadband package that I have with my ISP does not give me a static IP address if that makes any difference. So want I need is both routers linked that they can see each other and be connected at the same time. Any suggestions on how to do this would be appreciated.
