  1. UPDATE :    no progress yet 

     

    I turned off the Router for 30 minutes

    and I downloaded the WiFi driver from Dells website onto a USB stick and installed it on the the No-WiFi Dell laptop

     

    but still does not connect , but says its CONNECTED  on the control panel.

     

    and as a back-up I ordered another WiFi  internal modem off ebay 

     

    Not that I need it today but can you connect 2 computers together by Cat 5 cable to get internet on the no-WiFi computer ?

  2. Hi

     

    thanks for your comments ,  using windows 7 

     

    the weird thing was it was working in the morning and would not connect in the afternoon ,  sitting at the same place , same router etc, b phones / tablets connected fine , 

    but it does say "CONNECTED"  in the control panel on the non connecting laptop ????/

     

    How do I get to  router admin ?

     

    and thanks for the virtual wifi links , I now remember those type programs  from years ago , that will really help for later.

     

    and yes the laptop is a USA model BUT I am in the USA right now :)

     

    again thanks for the advise and please add more things in case someone else searches this subject later

     

    Cheers

  3. I have a 2 year old Dell  15 inch laptop ,  The Home WIFI worked  good on it in the morning but a few hours later it would not work , even when the control panel says CONNECTED......

     

    But phones and tablets work OK off the same WIFI  as does an older laptop I dug out of the closet that had been sitting 2 years .....

     

    Ummm so any idea what went wrong ?   The laptop was not moved, not dropped , nothing happened that I know ?????

     

    Can a laptops WIFI card just die ?    I  restarted the driver but that did nothing ?

     

    Any ideas  on what else I can check ?    Is there a modem checker program I can downloading from the working computer and  transfer it by USB card

     

    Any ideas appreciated......Thanks

    Boot into Ubuntu and run the Windows setup from there

    is there a way to download a clean copy of windows 7 from microsoft , install it  and use as a 30 day trial or something ,

     

    and later add the serial number ?   

  5. There are many very good Hospitals all over Thailand , 

     

    How far is your daughter  from the largest city ?

      Can you pay someone , maybe a certified nurse a days pay and have someone drive her to see your daughter ?

     

    Or pay someone to drive down , pick up daughter and aunt and take them to the "big city" ?

     

    or even pay an Ambulance  ( tell them not to speed :) )

     

    I can read you are going crazy , and I can understand ,  your brain is thinking all the worst things , 

    but for a few hundred dollars you should be able to get help for your daughter ,  

     

    And make sure they go to a full Hospital and not just a clinic 

     

    I am sure Sheryl will have some ideas ,  post  is the closest big city is and she may know the big Hospital

     

    good luck and let us know how it goes

  6. Just got my box of 20 mule team Borax today at Walmart

     

    4 pounds / 1.80kg for US $4

     

    if I just spread some around where the ants are will they take it back to the hive (if thats what its called)

    or does it need sweet sugar / honey / donuts :) so they take the sweet part back to the hive ?

     

    and how does that kill all the ants in the house ?  do  they all use the same hive ?

     

    Thanks for the info 

  7. I feel for the shop owners who are out  the real money they exchanged , 

     

    if there is a "deal" made to let them go back to the UK , I hope the shop owners get paid back  x 2 

     

    But like is said above , these punks did not print the money ,  I wonder how much they paid for a 20 pound note ?

     

    I wonder how long before UK papers will be bitching about the bad conditions in Thai jails for these punks !

  8. I just thought it might be a good idea to have the results at the start so you could then work off of that information  for more tests if needed , 

     

    But then when I think about if , when I went in for a full physical I never talked to a doctor before testing , 

    they just did the tests one after the other,  and later I talked to the doctor who just looked at the chart.....

     

    UMMMM .....  maybe that is just the way its done and we are not going to change it with logic :)

    For the OP, he will save time and money by having a full blood and urine test done before going to his doctor's appointment, and preferably at an outside clinic. This costs 1500B or less where I am. The results flag up any anomalies and will also help the doctor greatly if the OP does eventually want to see one. If he sees a hospital doctor without doing a blood/urine test first then it's a good bet that the first thing the doctor will do is make him have both tests in the hospital at much greater expense.

     

    Where would you get that done in BKK area ? and how long before you get the results ?

     

    and how long for the results in the Standard Package ?  

     

    thanks

  10. Hi

    I know the original iPad 1  cannot be updated  anymore and many apps will not work on it , 

     

    when will the same thing happen with the iPad 2 ?

     

    I  wanted to buy one because you can buy them cheap on Ebay for a 3G model 32-64gig , 

    I mostly want to use it for facetime , youtube and google chrome , 

     

    If its going to work for another year or 2 that is OK , I will drop it or lose it  by then anyway :)

     

    thanks for your ideas
