Thanks for your reply, fred_fish. That's reassuring.

The OP said it wasn't open to the Internet. But many here have been telling him it shouldn't be open to the Internet. This is confusing. Can someone explain this inconsistancy?

I have an older...

Interesting, as the warnings were for devices 'exposed to the internet'.

That's interesting. And surprising! Go for it. I'm running win 11 on a supposedly non compliant laptop, but it is not 10 years old!

Strange. '2022/23' in a cell works fine in Libre Office calc as text or number.

Couldn't agree with you more, WT!

But everyone to their own. Personly, it's Win 11 for me.

You didn't even read my post about small being needed.

If you see a post from me, please just pass on by, as I ain't going to ask you for permission to spend my money.

Thanks, WT, for your always positive response!

No integrity violation found.

This image has undergone many years of Insider (Dev) updates and has survived well so reckon not too much wrong in...

You often find it hard to be positive in your replies. Perhaps you could reconsider your approach that seems to be to snipe as a first reaction.

I don't feel a need to justify myself but you...

Top marks to Win 10! After buying a second QHD monitor I found the HDMI link to my old PC's on-board video couldn't cope with the higher res. Didn't think of having to check HDMI ver!

Ah, the universal cure!!!! ALWAYS the first thing to try.

Not sure I get why you say a fibre install will cost you. A standard install is free.

But you might get a surprise at the cost of getting power AND fibre changed to an underground route.

Yes, extenders should be banned!

Agree with 1101's suggestion. My PL Kit works a treat.

Just use your browser for accessing your gmail account. Problem goes away. Access it from anywhere and any device with a browser.

If a household LED is driven from 230V AC it those electronic components that achieve that dramatic voltage drop, not to mention conversion of AC to DC, that can die if overheated. So much different...

Yeah, dugi, that's how mine are set up.

Sounds like a damn good solution!!

Couldn't agree more with dugi re being told the sky will fall if you are stupid enough to use a router as an AP. Like him, been doing it for MANY years with absolutely no problems. And, quite...

I also have had a good experience with powerline adaptors. DLink from PBTech.

Lock yourself away!!!

What makes you think the win 10 firewall needs replacing?

IMHO you are trying to fix something by cluttering your computer with dubious overheads it doesn't need.

Just let Windows Defender have...

Yea, it's well known that if you watch CPU fans for too long your eyes will start spinning and you will fall off your chair.

Very true.

My not very computer able mate got it all done from your post.

Thanks WT!

Yes, saw that on their page! But, thanks, mate, will pass that on to my friend with suitable warnings!

Cheers.
