  1. We just recently had a fiber optic system installed at our home which the CPU is now hooked...


    Whenever we have not been on the system for some time, and then go back to it to do something, we find the system

    to be "dead". By that, I mean you cannot do anything for close to five minutes. I have gone to opening Task Manager to

    see what is going on, if possible and every time, I find WMI Provider Host at around 70% +/- of CPU. Until we went to

    the fiber system, I have never seen WMI unless it was near the bottom of the listing which I never pay any attention to anything that low.


    IS this because of the fiber system, or ironically, did something go haywire just as went to the fiber system?

    Next question: What do I do fo fix this issue?

    :)

  2. How to Set up for Fiber Optic Internet

    I don't think you need to put fiber **in** your house. The fiber is outside.

    The ISP will install a fiber-to-cable box (Google fiber calls it the "fiber jack") in your home. That connects to the modem/router over conventional Ethernet cable.

    We got Google fiber two years ago. All I had to do was click to order and click to pay.

    The outside installer put a box on the back of the house for the fiber junction.

    The inside installer put the fiber jack inside, installed the router in a closet (Google calls it the "network box"), installed a "cable box" at each TV, programmed the Google TV remotes, connected two LAN-side cables for the wired computers ... and done.

    With four Google cable TV boxes plus the "network box" ... we have five wifi access points in the house.

    I provided no equipment of any kind.

    What does your provider offer?

    Optical Drive Issue

    Hello Anak –

    Appreciate your detailed return. Your added steps really helped.

    Assuming I did the steps correctly, this is where I am now.

    Screenshot 12 shows my CD Disc shortcut on my desktop.
    Screenshot 10 shows the CD Drive shortcut listed in the “Send to” listing.
    Screenshot 11 shows the “Send to” listing after the steps were taken, but the CD drive name is not listed.

    So, it appears the steps did not work for me. And, I did try the steps, “If it still won’t do ……” and still no luck.

    What do you think?

    JerryA

    How to Set up for Fiber Optic Internet

    Excluding the nighthawk line of netgear routers mainly for the pricing, what brand of gaming routers do you or anyone here recommend for fiber optic internet; I took a look at some asus ones, but if there's others at a slightly lower price but still performs just as good for fiber optic internet, that'd be mighty appreciated
