don't blame you for being hacked off, should last at least two years, if not more.

| I would expect to get more out of it, we have some standard wireless routers still working that are more than five years old.
You could try upgrading the firmware?

| Not sure if anyone can help me here, but my Acer laptops playing up (yet again). I can right click, and my mouse works. Icons recognise that I'm hoverring my mouse over them, but I cannot left click on anything. I can right click as normal, but both the tap to left click and pressing the button aren't recognised not at all. Not sure why this is, but any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
EDIT: I've just tried using mousekeys, and this works too. Its just my trackpad click and left mouse button.

Bought one last year to replace another that died after about 4 years, and this one (Netgear) is now getting very temperamental and drops the signal all the time. It's difficult to reconnect (phone and PC takes ages and is not always successful).
I've tried the IT helpdesk solution of rebooting it but it only works for a few hours then gives up again
Should I just bin it and get a new one?'"
id try a couple of things like changing the splitter and the cables too mate, sometimes that resolves this sort of issue

Will try the splitter, but the cables are all under the carpet so it will be a nightmare to change them. It seems to be working right now, but keeps giving up and then restarting, so I'll give it a while and then bin it.

| Itunes/Windows 7 issue. When I convert and add album artwork via Itunes on my new Windows 7 machine, Windows Explorer (and subsequently my Archos) doesn't display any album covers, despite it doing so on music converted on a previous machine (Vista). Had a mooch on Google and haven't really found anything.
Any offers?

| This is really peeing me off, and from what I read is an issue with Java and phpBB. But I can't find any workaround that works, short of abandoning entirely the use of carriage returns. Anyone know a fix?

| Same here.
The only 'fix' (if you can call it that) I've found is to refresh and carry on typing without hitting the return key. Seems to fix itself after a short while and I can go back and enter line breaks where needed.
Only for it to feck up again 10 minutes later.

| If I use the quote button it's an 'aw snap' everytime. Even the refresh button doesn't remedy it now (used to).
Being computer illiterate it's a head-doer.

| This is exactly the problem I asked about on the tech thread last week!
It's doing my head in.

If it's happening when you fresh the 'return' key when typing, click on the 'go back' arrow at the top then the 'go forward' arrow. Anything you've typed should still be in there.
As I say, I type for a bit without using the return key and it generally stops crashing after a while.

| I can't even get to that stage.
When I quote someone then try and move the flashing vertical line down to post a reply it ''Aw Snaps'' every time.

I might have sussed it.
