  1. I recently bought a asus RT-AC68U and soon realized I made a big mistake. The router can't connect to our Internet because it is not a all in one modem and router. (Rookie mistake) We previously had tg589vn v3 that we got with our line Now my question is, to make the rt-ac68u work, should I just buy a modem and hook it up?
  2. PC is now turned on with no visible damage or smell, Is there any way I can check for damage, cause I can't imagine there's no damage after that kind of surgery that lasts for 2 seconds and turns off my screens??? I can't see and dead pixels not can I see any damage... ANOTHER THING TO Note is that Al my PC's fans went quiets while it surged and I could hear them staring back up just before I started the shutdown!!!???
  3. Read up about it alot while I'm sitting here waiting for the storm to pass, and alot of people said that a strike can come through ethernet cables and that you can't protect it cause it comes directly from the line that goes to ISP. Also another thing I noticed, My wife didn't have any connection to her Mobile data service provider (The same provider as our Home internet) That made me think that their equipment or towers/whatever where hit.
  4. Lightning just struck and most of our plugged in devices got a huge almost 2 second long shock. Pc did not shut down by my screen did, I turned off the pc immediately. Firstly, I have not turned on the Pc yet and still waiting out the storm with all my main devices plugged out. The pc and screen definitely got shocked. My question 1 - Is there anything I should do before powering it on again? 2 - If the pc turns on and everything *seems* fine, can there still be damage 3 - If the pc turn on and everything seems fine how do I check for damages. Probably a stupid post and most of you would say just turn on the pc and check... But I am very cautious, $2000 pc isn't a joke (Yes I had a UPS but I think the surge came through the ether net cable)
  5. Hello, i live in South Africa, my name is Riko and I'm 16 studying to become a Computer science "Doktor" (Afrikaans) My setup is as follow - Unknown mouse (No logo or sticker) Parthica keyboard Turtlebeach P12 Ps3 headphones Foam mouse pad (No name) PC i5 4460 Gtx 650 8GB Ram HP/Dell Box (Can't remember where I got it) Cheapest 1080p Acer monitor I could get ( R400 In Rand or About $25) Games I play - CSGO... This next text is not to be greedy - I really need gear, I am a school goer with no income and a will to get into a IT College, above all that, everything is way more expensive in South Africa... I looked at a GTX 970, it is $200 in America but R7000 in South Africa which translates to 600-700 dollars Thanks for your time reading this... Sorry if I sound desperate... But to be honest I am desperate!
