    PC WiFi


    Hi all,Last year I bought a gaming PC, I have always used Ethernet due to the fact my wifi is quite inconsistent. However I was trying to use without Ethernet, and I noticed my wifi wouldn’t bring up any suggestions. I navigated to settings and noticed wifi connection were turned off. After several attempts and trouble shooting techniques update drivers, uninstall/reinstall, etc the wifi option and driver just would not turn on at all. Any suggestions ?

    :)

  2. PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??

  3. Question about WiFi and PC

    Hello. I just set up my first WiFi network on my Windows PC in my home, but I want to make sure that I am doing everything properly as it relates to connecting.

    On a Microsoft support page, it states the following on how to connect to your WiFi:

    Connect a PC to your wireless network

    1. Select the Network or icon in the notification area.
    2. In the list of networks, choose the network that you want to connect to, and then select Connect.
    3. Type the security key (often called the password).
    4. Follow additional instructions if there are any.
    When I turn on my PC, I notice that I get Internet access immediately. I don't need to follow steps 1-4 at all. I do not have the "Connect Automatically" box checked.

    Why don't I have to click on the Connect button like step 2 states? I want to make sure that my WiFi is secure, also.

    Thank you.

    Origin PC Build Advice

    Most of the games I play are wifi reliant, but some aren't. What do you suggest I switch it out for (keep in mind, $3000 is my absolute cap).

    Here is the change-up in PSU: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/z9tGGf
