Hi all, Hoping to get some advice from those that are more tech savvy than I am. I'm comfortable setting up a backup WAN using a mobile phone plugged in via USB into my Asus router. However, I was wondering if there is a way for me to restrict which devices can utilise the backup WAN. For...

Do you mind sharing which company the fine was issued by? If it was Civil Enforcement Ltd, then their online appeal process tricks you into incriminating yourself by asking who the driver was and once they know that, your legal position weakens. I appreciate this is after the fact now and...

Sure, but rules have changed. You cannot simply ignore them as we might have done in the past and these companies have become increasingly litigious. Your experience of refunds is unfortunately not a common experience and neither is it reliable.

Sorry but that is wrong advice. The parking company have no incentive to refund you or even give your 'appeal' any consideration. OP, these fines are generally unenforceable as they can only pursue the driver and not the registered keeper and you are not under any obligation to disclose who the...

I was thinking I could use an infrared thermometer and calibrate the fan. Right now its on by default at a low speed and then if either the GPU or CPU hit a threshold, it gradually ticks up as well.

PSU is 2 pin only, unless there's another way?

I'm using an spare PSU in my son's pc but the fan is pretty loud, so I've replaced it with a 120mm be quiet fan and as it's 4 pin (PSU fan was 2pin), I've plugged it into a case fan header on the Mobo. So far the fan has been noticeably quieter but I'm wondering if there were any long term...

The Ryzen 5 3600 is a great processor and excellent value. I put one in my son's new pc and have been very very impressed with it.

That's a lot of data! The cameras I'm looking at are the EUFY brand and typical reviews indicate that 16GB is enough to store 30days of data. I would like to backup to the cloud in case the NAS gets stolen during a break in. Id rather spend the money on a NAS then to be held hostage by a...

I don't have a NAS just yet, but looking to get something very cheap for this purpose. I need it to put security camera videos onto the cloud for me in real-time

Hi, I'm wondering if there is a way to create a real-time backup solution that can backup files from a basic NAS onto the cloud. I have a security camera system that can write the files to a base unit or a NAS but I'd like to see if I there is a way I can store these onto the cloud using the...

I kitted my kids and Mrs out with 2nd hand Windows Surface Books (version 1) for £500 or less on ebay. You get an incredible amount of kit for that and my kids enjoy using the large detacheable tablet and you can get a full working day out of a single charge. I have the i7 version with the...

Unorthodox on Netflix was very good. Also I'm sure it's already been posted, but Making of a Murderer is a very powerful and gripping documentary.

Doing my bit for the forum by using the search function to revive an old thread. So any new / recent additions to the list of good quality VPN's?

Thank you everyone, this really got me out of a pickle. Really appreciated!
