I thought this was wireless?? Help please..

As I'm holding for tech support, I thought that perhaps someone here could help me. I just purchased my Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router, Model WRT54GS. From what I understood the router would completely eliminate wires with the exception of the ethernet cable going from the modem to the router. The instructions are stating that I will have a cable going from the modem to the router and one going from the router to my computer? If so, that completely defeats the purpose of me purchasing a WIRELESS router, and I will be returning it promptly. Is this true? Please help...

Once you configure your router, you remove the cable.

    Crashes when I attempt to clear browser history;temp fix:I use IObit Security to clean browsing history,cannot clean it all,cleans most,I am then able to clear the rest of my history thru Firefox;I thought this info would help solve the problem

    Crap thought that text was all the characters I was allotted, not just the title.
    Anyway I wouldn't have even posted this if you guys would have allowed me to reply to the already existing thread I found through google. Said about 20 or so people had the same problem and no one found the contributor's answer useful, including myself.
    Anyway, I use Firefox, because it is one of two (other being internet explorer) that Trend Micro's security package includes protection with. Same with spyware blaster which I also use but Trend Micro is the deal breaker. Also I like Firefox 4 and your ad blocker is better than google chrome's. However if I continue to have problems with clearing my browser history it is back to Opera and Google Chrome for me. IObit Security supports both of them, it also seems to be the best security system I have ever come across, I will just pay for their subscription and stop using Trend Micro.
    This is a very big problem I hope it is being addressed. Only addon I have is your ad blocker. Also this is completely on your end, not ours. I am the perfect test, my computer is brand new, and by brand new I mean I just started using it the other day, the same day my firefox browser kept crashing as I attempted to clear my browsing history.
    Windows 7, 8GBs RAM, AMD athlon II quad core 2.90 GHz
    Can't even clear an hours worth of browsing history without firefox crashing.

  • When I used Safari to go to the American Express web site a request came up asking me to register my Amex card.  I thought this was strange so I called Amex and they saw it when they went online and they said it was my iPad that had been hacked.  Is there

    When I used Safari to go to the American Express web site a request came up asking me to register my Amex card.  I thought this was strange so I called Amex and they saw it when they went online and they said it was my iPad that had been hacked.  Is there an app to protect my iPad when I am online with sensitive information?

    I located some suggestions for flushing the cache.
    There are really three ways you can flush the DNS cache on your iPad.
    1) Simply turn the iPad off and on again using the power button. A simple reboot will go a long way.
    2) Turning on Airplane mode and then turning it off again will also clear the DNS cache and should be enough to fix the problem. Tap on your Settings icon, then swipe Airplane mode to On and then back off. Since Airplane mode disables the wireless features of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to comply with airline regulations, this will generally do the trick.
    The third method would reset all your network settings and I'm pretty sure you don't want to do that right now.

  • After updating to iOS 8.0.2 the App Store and iTunes have disappeared, is anyone else having this problem? Help please!

    After updating to iOS 8.0.2 the App Store and iTunes have disappeared, is anyone else having this problem? Help please!

    Well, if they have truly disappeared then something is really messed up. For really messed up stuff, you need to set it to factory default condition, and then afterwards, restore it from your backup.

  • I am hoping to view a video clip, but I need to download Flip4mac onto my Safari browser. I cannot see where I access safari preferences on ipad to do this. Any help please - thanks Douglas

    I need to download a video clip called Flip4mac onto my Safari browser, which will then enable me to view it. I cannot see where I access safari preferences on my ipad to do this.
    Any help please - thanks Douglas

    The video may be a Flash video. Adobe has not made, and will not make, Flash for mobile devices including the iPad. So you may not ever be able to view the video.

  • I live in Somerset, UK, but having returned from a trip to Germany, my Wifi iPad thinks its location is in Germany.  Is there any way to correct this? I am new to apple conventions, but thought this was an automatic update.

    I live in Somerset, UK, but having recently come back from a trip to Germany, my iPad thinks it is still  in Germany.  Is there any way to correct this?  I am new to apple conventions, but thought this was an automatic update when the iPad locks on to a local Wifi hotspot.  Any thoughts out there?

    Thank you all for responding - much appreciated, but none of the advice has shifted my location from Germany.  Time Zone is shown as Lonon, Region Format is shown as UK, and Reset Network Settings seemed only to switch off the Wifi connection.
    I'll leave it at that I think, and make do with the iPad thinking it's in Germany.
    Best wishes,

  • IMovie 10.....I thought this was more intuitive.....clipping?

    Thought this was moving to a more intuitive type program for laymen....
    well iMovie 9 I picked up and figured things out almost instantly for basic editing for youtube
    I cannot figure out how to select and area of the event I want to clip or delete.
    I just dont understand those thin bars that you move to pinpoint a frame in time.
    also...no audio now when i move the bar through the event...it used to give me audio.....sped up or down of course.....

    Click and hold down for a second or two and you will see a handle and a yellow rectangle...then drag to the right...just like you did in the old iMovie, except the holding down part. Once you have the piece selected that you want to delete, hit delete just like before.

  • I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help please...

    I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help me please...

    You can find the Apple Bluetooth card on eBay for as little ten dollars (says its for the 2008 model Mac Pro, not sure about the 2007).
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bluetooth-Board-iMac-and-Mac-Pro-922-8233-922-8233-/1208 49278570
    Here is a link to a full explanation of the card and how to install it. Part numbers may differ a bit as that is an old article and newer models have come out.
    http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/Mac_Pro/Bluetooth_MacPro_install/Bluetooth_Ma cPro_install.html
    Just make sure that the part will work in your model Mac Pro. To that end, you may be better off avoiding eBay and going to a parts reseller. There are even third party cards that use the internal Apple bluetooth slot.
    http://fastmac.com/bluetooth.php
    In theory, using a USB or PCI card will work at login so long as it is recognized by Apples drivers. You say you need to launch an application to use your current USB Bluetooth dongle? If it is not controlled by the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar then it must be using a third party driver of some sort. Unfortunately, I don't know off hand which USB and PCI cards are supported.

  • I still can't be on a phone call and use data without wifi on my Droid Turbo.  I thought this was going to be fixed by late November.

    I am so disappointed.  I am a long time Droid user and research the Droid Turbo for several months before purchasing.  I even read the reviews that indicated that there was a issue when attempting to use the phone calling feature and data at the same time.  I called Verizon and talked with a rep. who indicated that he had the new phone and assured me that this issue had been fixed.  Unfortunately, when I received the phone this was not the case.  Even an update shortly after purchase still did not fix this issue.  All of my Droids before this did not have this issue...how can a newer more improved phone?  I even called Motorola and the English of the representative was so bad that I could not overcome the language barrier therefore no solution was reached.  Wish I had my Razr HD back :{

    I can understand the concern CCONLEY.   Go to Settings>Advanced Calling> and select Activate Advanced Calling or contact Customer Service to get the features added. Once added Reboot device and go back to Setting>Advanced Calling>and ensure the Advanced Calling switch is set to On. Ensure you are in a 4G LTE service area and test again.  If there is still an issue, please let us know so we can forward your findings to the software team.    TamaraH_VZW Follow us on Twitter @VZWSupport If my response answered your question please click the "Correct Answer" button under my response.
