MS staff

There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey! Where am I?" To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.

The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."

Is Windows a virus?

No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:
They replicate quickly Okay, Windows does that

Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so okay, Windows does that

Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk Okay, Windows does that, too

Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems Sigh... Windows does that, too

Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware Yup, that's with Windows, too

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature

So, Windows is *not* a virus

The Blacklist

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 12:39 AM PDT

 

 

Raymond "Red" Reddington, one of the FBI's most wanted fugitives, surrenders in person at FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. He claims that he and the FBI have the same interests: bringing down dangerous criminals and terrorists. Reddington will cooperate, but insists that he will speak only to Elizabeth Keen, a rookie FBI profiler. Keen questions Reddington's sudden interest in her, though he claims that Keen is very special. After the FBI brings down a terrorist he provided information on, Reddington reveals that the terrorist is only just the first of many. In the last two decades, he made a list of criminals and terrorists he believes the FBI can't find because they didn't know they exist and that they matter the most. Reddington calls it "The Blacklist".

the govts plans to have a biometric national id cards for everyone by 2010.In usa the real id act is facing fierce resistance as 20 states have signed legislation opposition this as well in UK as groups like defyid and no2id.THis national id card makes india a police state,mass surveillance society and blurs the difference btw nazi germany and india.
the supreme court has interpreted that we have the right to privacy which the national id card violates.Why isnt anyone doing to stop this.I contacted times of india ,cnn ibn,ndtv but got no reply?.


we already have voter id card,passport,driver license,ration card,pan card(similar to social security card in us.).EVen is usa the ss card is not to be used as a id card.why do we need a chip card?the only thing that i can think is abut control and monitoring us.

once everyone has this card the govt can track your every move and switch your card if you resist or dissent.

Minimum internet plan required, only for video calls and some browsing.

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 12:03 AM PDT

Hello friends,

One of my neighbors is looking for an internet plan. They are an elderly couple, recently their son from abroad sent them a tab that has only wifi connection, so that they can have video calls with them when needed. They dont have any pc or laptop. My guess is its the first time they would be using internet.

Since I use spectranet and its quite good at my place i suggested them the same, where as their friends and relatives gave them other suggestions. They are yet to make a decision.

So my question is, in terms of speed what is the minimun speed plan required to make video calls over skype and how much data one would consume over calls with little browsing in a month? I need to know so that I can suggest them a limited plan that is economical as well.

Thanks!

Best broadband plan and how reliable ?

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 11:58 PM PDT

Guys,

I will be coming to India from Europe for 6 months and will be staying at Noida, I am looking for broadband connection at Noida and needless to say it should be reliable and better in terms of stable upload and download speed. I don't have much of need but I would like to download stuff and connect to European office through VPN etc. 

I did check online and Airtel stood out but how good it is? And they even claim for 16 MBPS speed with good cost, is it good buy or you can suggest me some alternative, is there no glass fiber connection possible.

 

Please help.

Unable to use Tata Sky Wifi Remote

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 10:22 PM PDT

Hi

 

I've a TataSky HD+ box, and I downloaded the new TataSky App from the AppStore.

 

The STB is connected to my WiFi router with the TataSky Wifi Dongle.

I am unable to use the feature of WiFi remote provided by the TataSky App.

 

On trying to connect I get an error '0xfd2002 : Wi-Fi signal not available, Please ensure your TataSky + HD set top box and this device are currently connected to the same Wi-Fi router.'

 

Has anyone in the forum faced the issue? Any solution?

 

The TataSky helpline is clueless about this...

Degrading BSNL Broadband and its Infrastructure. No hope in sight :(

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 08:43 PM PDT

I have been a BSNL customer for some years now , more because its the only ISP in many parts of the south india. Starting from the later half of this year , the BSNL broadband has been slowly degrading.

 

Every weekend , BSNL networks starts to crumble under the load (weekend influx of users) and not until Tuesday , the network starts to come back to normal.

 

It been happening for past 2-3 weeks. My SNR are within normal.

 

Here is current ping to google dns , so inconsistent , and also so high . Usually my pings are 20-40ms , but since its monday and as i said before , pings are horrible.

 

BxDaaoJ.png

 

 

Routing is bad , and i dont know if bsnl is going to improve its infrastructure.

 

Today placed a complaint and got calls from local BSNL officer , regional officer . Regional officer had no clue what i was telling , as he kept saying my speed is 512kbps and it will soon be 4mbps coming 1st.. *facepalm* and i kept repeating the issue is with Routing and not with my speeds. I just said to tracert to one ip (valve server ) and look at the route  and see for the lagging / latency node (TATA server)

 

http://whois.net/ip-address-lookup/180.87.12.81

 

 

 

nAaOIi3.png

 

 

A simple routing from india to singapore now goes via US *morefacepalm*

 

Did try to contact TATA , but they said to instead contact my upstream provider , ie BSNL :(

 

This has already been detailed in this blog post : http://anuragbhatia.com/networking/bsnl-softlayer-connectivity-problem-possible-fix/

 

And as the blogger said , its upto BSNL to correct the issue , which i think wont happen anytime soon.

 

Also from one of his tweet :
 

 

BSNL in #3 out of top 50 world most active AS'es. Keep on screwing up routing AS9829!

 

http://bgpupdates.potaroo.net/instability/bgpupd.html

 

 

With no other ISP in my place , and no other prvt players coming along the road in any time soon .. Dont know what else to do.

 

With more dwindling profits , BSNL is in precarious condition and letting it fail will eventually lead to more people being cut off from internet , letting it live will only deteriorate the already present horrible network. Right now in Catch 22 situation .

 

 

All i think we can do currently is keep lodging complaint after complaint . But the current mentality of BSNL personnel's is to run an OK network , irrespective of it performs.

 

Does it lag ? Do you have latency while gaming ? Not able to run a decent 240p youtube video ?

 

WE ARE LEAST BOTHERED !!

Need Suggestion for a backup broadband in Gurgaon

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 08:23 PM PDT

I have a small office setup at my home in Gurgaon and completely rely on Airtel broadband.

Of late I am seeing deterioration of Airtel services in my area where it goes down every 10-15 days for 5-8 hours at times. I am planning to get a backup internet service.

 

What do you think would be the best and affordable back up internet service for my case where at least 2-3 users should be able to connect to the internet wirelessly.

Suggestion for Printer Server cum Router

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 08:20 PM PDT

I have a SCX 4300 Samsung printer at my place which does not support WiFi printing. I also have a 450TC1 ADSL2+ router on my airtel broadband but the WiFi range is very poor on it.

 

I am thinking to purchase an equipment which can solve both purposes whereby 1) it becomes a print server for my printer and I should be able to print documents from any machine wirelessly and 2) it doubles up as a WiFi router to extend range of WiFi and let me transfer files on the WiFi itself instead of using my internet GBs.

This could very well be my favorite new show. Very high quality stuff. Brilliant. 

 

http://goo.gl/CLKnL

 

Hannibal is an American thriller television series developed by Bryan Fuller for NBC. The series is based on characters and elements appearing in the novel Red Dragon by Thomas Harris and focuses on the budding relationship between FBI special investigator Will Graham and Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a forensic psychiatrist destined to become Graham's most cunning enemy. The series received a 13 episode order for its first season and, unlike most U.S. network shows, any future seasons will also feature 13 episodes. David Slade executive produced and directed the pilot. The series premiered on NBC on April 4, 2013. In response to the Boston Marathon bombings and the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, NBC has pulled the fourth episode from its lineup at Fuller's request, going straight to the fifth episode, moving the season finale from June 27, 2013 to June 20, 2013.

forgot my bsnl broadband password

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 05:07 PM PDT

recently the modem stopped working. bought a new d-link modem. while setting up i had to give my bsnl internet user id and password. but somehow the password didn't match. it seems that i've forgotten the password. launched complain and the exchange told me to login with the first password that they gave me (almost 6 years ago. may be more. i'm not sure).

 

that time i used to use an ip address like 10.240.240.195 to change password, check usage etc. now i can see that things have changed and that ip address is not opening. there is a self care portal. but i think the portal has its own password and id. 

 

i just want to confirm if my bsnl password has been reset as told by the exchange people !!

 

if they have reset the password i will call the person who would install the modem !! help needed !!

SSD

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 04:06 PM PDT

So a friend is coming back to India from states and considering Nexus device launch is not happening in the next 2-3 days, I am considering ordering a SSD if the price difference between India and USA is significant. Now, from what I have read, SSD technologies have evolved a lot in the recent years and it is recommended to buy a model from a more recent tech as they are more reliable compared to SSDs of older tech. What I want are suggestions for models in 128GB  and 256GB capacities. I do not think I can manage with a 64GB C: though it is doable.
