So, I enabled IPv6 on my main router and now WiFi calling seems to work?! Don't understand any of it, just posting in case anyone else finds this helpful in future

Thanks. My speeds on the access point are reasonable (100-200mbps). Are there any other contributing factors?

Hi there. I have issues in my home making WiFi calls from my mobile phone using an access point. My network setup is : Main WiFi router (Living room) TP link powerline ethernet (Living room to Master Bedroom) Netgear router set up as access point (Master Bedroom). When I'm connected to Living...

No burns anywhere, there wasn't any smoke either, just a brief spark as the cable hit the extension. Seasonic provide a 10 year warranty which I assume is valid here so will go down that route. I'm just stressed about the other components but don't have access to another PSU to test these.

Hi, So today, after doing some maintenance on my PC I went to connect everything back up. As I connected the power cable to the back of the PC, there was a spark and it tripped the power in my house. Power is back but PC won't power on at all. All of the other electronics using the same...

Replaced GPU and CPU. I am trying to avoid a full wipe right now as I plan on upgrading to a larger NVME in the near future. Is there a way to wipe Bluetooth cache/data maybe?

Hi Guys, I've got a strange one. I recently did a fresh Windows install on my Windows 10 system after replacing a few components. I didn't do the FULL wipe (I selected the 'Keep my files' option), which may be relevant. Ever since, I have been unable to pair any Bluetooth devices with my PC...

Ok thanks. PC Part Picker tells me 400W should be enough for all of my components but I have just bought a Corsair 650W PSU on Amazon & hopefully this will resolve the issue. Thanks

Hi there, I have a 2nd had motherboard (all PC specs below). I see on the ASRock website they say "ASRock do NOT recommend updating this BIOS if Pinnacle, Raven, Summit or Bristol Ridge CPU is being used on your system" from verison 6.00 onwards. Is it possible for me to flash v5.70 or will...

Thanks. Yes I know I'll still be running slow laptop speeds for the apps that will only run on the laptop/VPN but will see improvements in most of my day to day tasks (email, calendar etc). I can't remote connect to laptop OTA as it's blocked by the VPN but I wondered if there was a wired...

ok thanks. How about using a 'remote desktop' type application through a cable instead of OTA?

Hi, I think this is probably the best section for this, but if not please let me know. I have a home PC and a work laptop. With everything going on in the outside world, I am working exclusively from home right now. Much of this can be done on my desktop but there are a few systems that I need...

ok interesting, didn't realise that was possible. Good advice

Hi, I am looking at my next PC upgrade and need some advice. Current setup: Ryzen 5 1600X RX580 8GB 16GB DDR4 2400 (1 stick) PC is used for gaming and photo editing primarily. I've seen a lot online about how important RAM speed is with AMD CPUs, as well at having dual sticks, so am I better...

Can you expand on this?
