Title explains what I would like to accomplish, but I have no idea how to get there! There are pictures/folders on each laptop that I would like to view and don't want to copy them from one laptop to the other if I can avoid that. Is this possible and how do I go about doing it? I do have a wireless router (both laptops are connected to that). Is this similar to "home networking"? I haven't a clue how that works either! Thanks ..read more

This is a weird problem I have never seen before. Here's a sample of batch commands with which this problem is happening: XCopy "\\Shop\E\BackupX\DriveD\*.*" "\\Alex\E\BackupX\DriveD\" XCopy "\\Shop\E\Original\OS\Windows\*.*" "\\Alex\E\Original\OS\Windows\" When the batch is run from the Alex or Shop computer, files are always copied to drive C and the destination drive specified in the command line is ignored ..read more

My HPP2015dn network printer has been USB connected to my Verizon FIOS Gateway router for 2 years. Lately the router port goes inactive much more frequently, perhaps after an hour's inactivity, and I have to power cycle the printer to print something. I know how to access the router and display connections, but I don't see a setting to keep a port open assuming that's even the approach I should be taking. Any suggestions welcome ..read more

My tech skills are leaving me faster than both my ex-wives. I’m staying with a friend while my house gets remodeled….. She just switched from Spectrum to AT&T Fiber. She has an older HP computer with Windows 8 and an AMD E1-2500 cpu. I’m using a little newer Dell with Windows 10 and an I5 cpu. When we go to www.SpeedTest.net Her Pc is getting 30 to 40 mbps I’m getting 690 to 930 mbps. I've started Googling and so far have only come up with changing... Internet Speeds ..read more

I have 9 computers on a network. All running Win 10 Pro. One acts as the file server. All computers with the exception of one machine reconnect to the server when they start up. One machine always has to reenter the computer name and password. Checking the Remember Credentials box has no effect. Does anyone have any thoughts on what I should look at as to why this one machine won't reconnect automatically? Thanks ..read more

I have two different Grace Digital Radios. The company went out of business and another company bought them. When I go to a station it says, "no gateway" I called support and was told my two radios are not supported by the new company. Before I throw away two nice, expensive internet radios, is there anything I can do to make them connect to the radio stations? When I go to a station in a computer I don't need their gateway. How do they control that? (not a legal expiation, but... Company Out of Buisness, Anyway to get a "Gateway ..read more
