Laptop Repair- Can't Connect to Wireless Connection

Dallas Computer Repair asks, "Have you ever been on a trip outside your area and tried to connect to the internet with your laptop, yet to find out you cannot connect to the internet?" Chances are you may have malware embedded in your operating system that will not allow your portable laptop unit to connect or communicate with an outside source.

It is recommended by PC Virus Doctors' Dallas Computer Repair to have the following installed and updated before traveling to an outside internet connection:
  1. SuperAntiSpyware
  2. Ad-aware
  3. Spybot Search & Destroy
  4. An extra anti-virus such as ClamWin as a redundant backup
It is imperative to have these programs updated, according to Dallas Computer Repair, with the latest anti-malware signatures and advised to run them before one takes off for their destination point. Remember that if one cannot connect to the internet then the latest downloaded ani-malware signatures makes it impossible to rid your laptop/computer of bugs and junk that prohibit the PC from an internet connection.

PCVDs' Dallas Computer Repair strongly recommends that users install an open-source anti-virus, ClamWin, as previously mentioned as it can most often run along with paid anti-virus programs. Our Dallas computer repair also recommends to create a desktop icon when installing the anti-virus which can be a reminder for users that the tool is ready and available for use. Default installation allows for a once-a-day update that one will never know unless checked.

Always, keep your anti-malware updated daily to avoid costly time-outs!

U.S. Internet Infrastructure

Dallas Computer Repair has come a long way in the last year. That being said, why is the United States internet infrastructure so far behind the world-leading internet countries? Most in Europe now have t1 connections but we are still using phone lines. There has been no major move to push the United States into faster connections where we could use internet T.V. and other video in real-time. We constantly "give" our intellectual and proprietary property away to third world countries but yet we cannot keep our own technology growth at pace for our own people.

We have got to keep up the pace or we will fall as an international technology leader. This is plain and simple. If we do lose the technology front we will lose on many other fronts.

Lets push our legislators for faster internet connections, locally, at the state level and our U.S. Senators. Let's get these lazy, greedy people off their ass and get them to work for us and not the corporations who fund these individuals through many different hidden means.
