So I did some more digging. My firewall somehow created a rule blocking Microsofts NT Kernel & System. As soon as I unblocked it have I access.

Hello Everyone, I have implemented a PPTP VPN using DD WRT on a ASUS router. The VPN feels properly configured. It allows me to ping my printer, roku, android devices etc without issue. I can access firmware pages, print remotely, and even used wireless ADB to reconfigure some settings on a...

I know this is old, but in my experience seems like in addition to the government, most large corporations prefer it. They see the certification as one of those things that will confirm what the interview is telling them. And if they hire someone who is incompetent, they can fly up the flag...

Hi Everyone, So my roommate (uses Sony VAIO running Windows 7) uses a VPN software that creates a virtual port on his machine which it then controls to specify which VPN to access. Works great, but now one program (PlayOn) is having an issue where it accesses the LAN of the VPN instead of our...

Alright, so I feel stupid now ha ha. All that had to be done was go into services and configure the related remote desktop services to Automatic.

Hi, So I have enabled and configured RDS on a home media server. Everything is working great, until the power fails. I turn it back on, and go to my laptop to remote in. No go, I have to get on the server locally and log in, then the services start up. I am sure there is a way I am overlooking...

Yeah, it definitely seems like a router issue. Without knowing its current configuration though, I am going to go out on a limb and say there is some manufacturing defect in the router, as it is connecting with the game and then dropping. This could be software related, so I would try updating...

So I think that line quality test is a scam to try and get you to switch to them, because there is no way you lost 100% of your packets, if you did you couldn't even connect. Port Forwarding would have nothing to do with this: if you needed it you wouldn't be able to connect to the game at all...

So basically, you want to have everything centralized on the server? If it were me I would set up a server with Windows Server of some variety. Active Directory great for managing accounts across a network. You can specify just about everything, from making all the desktops be forced into a...

Weird. If it is the phone connected to the splitter, sounds like the aDSL filter built into it is defective. If it is another phone in the house though, you need a aDSL filter for every phone.

So, it sounds like you are using aDSL if I had to guess and are having trouble staying connected to online games. In answer to your main question: no you cannot have to aDSL modems on one phone line as the service is generally tied to the line not the modem. Without knowing more this kind of...
