Does anyone have any experience with autistic children?**UPDATE**

One of the most recognizeable symptoms of autism is avoidance of eye contact. Does your son make and keep eye contact with you? What about non-verbal communication? You say that he seems to understand what you are saying to him, but does he respond to you? Does he initiate communication with...

Novell GroupWise WebAccess

It's been about 5 years since I set this up, but I believe you will have to: 1. Install server OS, which you've already done 2. Install Groupwise, verify that it is working. Sounds like you've done that too. 3. Install Novell Webserver, or other webserver that works with Novell. 4...

mini-ISP

Contact a competent datacom consulting company in your area that is also a Cisco reseller and they'll put together a package for you. I predict something in the 40-50k range, with about 1k or 2k in monthly recurring costs. This is just for the equipment and 'net connection. Then you need to...

In cases like this, depending on the infrastructure and population growth in the area, DSL or cable internet service might be available in a year or two. The best thing to do is for the residents who are interested to get together and petition a small/medium local ISP to setup wireless coverage...

Not sure if this is the right forum. It's virus e-mail related.

Depending on the type of contract you have, your hosting company might not appreciate you running nmap against one of their ip's. You mentioned you are running a web server, so jack up the logging and see if the customer is making a connection request. That way you can tell if this is a...

server espionage

The hacker shows up posing as a liquor salesman with a suitcase full of booze. Once the CTO is passed-out drunk, the hacker (also drunk) takes the CTO's SecurID fob and gets into the system. Maybe he'll use his access to take control of a weather satellite.

SBC Yahoo! DSL problems

Has anything changed? Phone cable? Network setup? Are you running these tests from a computer that is plugged into the router, or connected via wireless? Also, as part of your testing you should allow the line to "re-train." The simplest way to do this, and in some cases the only way, is to...

using a router with dialup

I think Halfcrazy is right. You need to use ICS in order for your dialup PC to act as the NAT gateway. Just set your router to get its WAN IP address via DHCP, and the dialup PC running ICS will assign the router a private address. And since the D-link will most likely be setup to use NAT as...

isdn connection

Get an ISDN router and you'll probably see better download speeds, and as a bonus this will get rid of the latency that ISDN TA's introduce. Check ebay for some good deals. For instance, in the next hour or so this Ascend Pipeline 50 is going to sell for a sweet price. FWIW, I used ISDN at...

Detecting dns setting with dialup ?

Detecting dns setting with dialup ?

Do they have a custom dialer program that runs under windows? If so, there might be some problems. But a standard PPP dialup only has a few things that are negotiated between the NAS (equipment you dial into) and your PC. You can capture this process with a decent sniffer, even a free one...

RJ11 connectors for cat5e cable?

Amdfanboy is right. Use the standard stranded copper RJ-11 patch cords between your analog device and the wall jack. Solid-core cable should not be used in a situation where the cable is going to be moved around, since the wires would eventually break inside the insulator jacket. Just use as...

How do I find out if NetZero is v.92 compliant?

NetZero leases modem service from other providers. My company used to provide modem service to one of their wholesalers, 1stup.com before they went out of business. Maybe you can call up netzero and ask if their free service will be supporting v.92 anytime soon. Good luck with all that.
