Renting a home: Did you check this?
One very important factor to check before renting a home – yet none of the real estate guides mention it. A renters guide: what to look for in a rental property talks about storage area, hot and cold water, cleanliness, will your furniture fit, how many car parks are there etc. But nobody suggests you check the following: Is high-speed internet and Foxtel available at this location? Moving to a house or apartment where there is no high speed internet or Foxtel connection can be a deal breaker these days, especially for the tech-savvy Gen X and Gen Y’s. If you are a property owner and your house or apartment has high-speed Internet and Foxtel. Make sure you brag about it in the real-estate advertising. If you are a property owner and your house or apartment DOES NOT have high-speed Internet and Foxtel it could well increase your properties attractiveness by having them installed, or if they cannot be installed, keeping very quiet about the matter. The majority of houses and business premises in are currently connected to the Internet via an ADSL modem which uses the copper telephone wire, now known as the “land-line”, connecting your premises to the local telephone exchange. Although speeds of 20 MBPS can be achieved using ADSL (if you live close to the telephone exchange), some connections only receiving 1 or 2 MBPS. In comparison, high speed internet can be achieved using HFC which currently offers speeds of 30 to 100 MBPS and NBN fibre connections offer speeds of 100 MBPS or more. Test your current Internet Speed here. Business fibre connections are available but very expensive at over $1,000 per month. NBN fibre (if available) offers the same speeds at a much lower price. What is a HFC Connection? “HFC” stands for “Hybrid Fibre Coax” and is the coaxial cable that provides Foxtel to homes and businesses. In the 1990’s Telstra laid the cable to many houses across many Suburbs to offer pay TV services. Only Telstra offer this service. You don’t currently need a Foxtel service but you do need the cable running down your street. Not all streets and suburbs were connected in the 90’s. Telstra’s HFC service is also known as “Telstra Cable Broadband”. See below for connection details and pricing: What is a NBN Connection? NBN (National Broadband Network) is the name of the scheme and company charged with providing High Speed Internet services throughout Australia by the previous Labour Government. The NBN Company was formed to deliver these services initially by providing Fibre-to-the-premises (FTTP), Fibre-to-the-Node (FTTN) or Fibre-to-the-Building (FTTB) Internet Services by a new fibre-optic cable network, giving peak speed of between 100 mbps to 1000 mbps. However, due to cost blow outs the technology mix has now changed dramatically with the current Government adding Wireless and HFC to it’s offered services. How can I tell if I am eligible for a HFC or NBN high speed internet Connection? What Alternative internet services are available at my address? What happens if you are in a HFC area but dont have the cable running to your premises? On March 4th it was announced that if Optus’s or Telstra’s pay TV cable runs down your street but you currently don’t use it for broadband access, someone will come to hook up your home in the next few years – even if in the past you’ve been told it is unavailable.(Read more here “More pieces start to fit in NBN puzzle“) Will I ever get an NBN Connection if I am eligible for a HFC connection? A few months ago the Communications minister, Malcolm Turnbull, made it known that in order to save costs NBN quality broadband will only be delivered through the HFC network for those premises that are currently eligible. Only those premises not having an HFC connection will eventually get an NBN connection which could be FTTN or FTTP Telstra Cable Broadband Pricing Telstra Cable broadband (HFC) can deliver Internet speeds of 30 to 100 mbps compared to a maximum of 20 Mbps for ADSL 2+. For plans and availability click here. Plans start at only $73 per month. (plus modem and installation charges) If your one of the many Perth ADSL customers getting download speeds of 10 Mpb’s or less (click here to test your speed) then Cable Broadband from Telstra is probably your only solution to faster Internet speeds unless you live in a new suburb or building that maybe eligible for FTTP or FTTN services. Be aware that your existing modem will probably not be cable compatible so you will need to buy a new one from Telstra. A self-install Cable Home Network Gateway is $144 for new Telstra home broadband customers. If you’re an existing Telstra home broadband customer and would like a new modem you can take up a T-Gateway Package for $216. If you already have Foxtel Cable installed, Telstra will simple mail you a self-install modem kit. You can install it yourself or call us out to do it for you. If you don’t have Foxtel cable already coming into your house, Telstra will also charge you an installation fee to have one of their technicians install the cabling (up to $299), Make sure you direct them to terminate it a place that suits you such as next to your TV or in the smart-wiring junction box. Again, if you have any doubts, call us out to assist you. Telstra cable broadband can provide download speeds up to a maximum of 30Mbps when downloading from capable sites or across multiple sites but average speeds will be lower. If you take up Telstra’s optional $20 per month Super Fast Speed Boost option then it can provide download speeds up to a maximum of 100Mbps into the home for sharing across multiple users in a household. The above is designed as a self-help guide to finding a faster Internet Services to residents of Perth, Western Australia.

Buying a home: Did you check this?
One very important factor to check before buying a home – yet none of the real estate guides mention it. Buying a home 10 things to check before you buy lists important things such as checking for water leaks, sagging ceilings, and drain holes in the walls.

My PC passed the speed test but is still slow?
Sometimes your computer can remain slow even after having passed a speed test. We explain the possible reasons and how to fix them. When you run a speed test as described here http://dev.itguyswa.com.au/how-to-test-your-internet-speed/ and you get a fair result compared to the averages for your area or the technology you are using then you need to take a closer look at the computers and devices you are using. A suspected slow computer usually has up to four causes. 1) Slow Internet Speed 2) Computer Viruses 3) Corrupt Operating System 4) Computer hardware failure Let us examine items 2,3 and 4 in more detail Firstly isolate your reasoning for thinking your computer is slow and try to quantify the level of “slowness” ie. does your PC takes 4 minutes to startup?, When playing games is there is a lot of juddering and freezing?. Do files take 2 minutes to save etc. 1) Slow Internet Speed Self Test Internet Performance Guide Guide 1 – How to test your internet speed Guide 2 – How to compare your internet speed with your area average 2) Computer Viruses Even with a current Anti-Virus program, you can still pickup computer viruses and malware. The nastier ones get underneath the Anti-Virus program and can then only be removed using a rescue disk. In this article we show 21 tell-tail signs that your computer has a virus. This article shows how to remove 99% of known viruses using a rescue disk. If you complete the above and either no viruses are found or your speed does not improve, try the next step. Need expert help in fixing Internet & Wi-Fi Issues and live in Perth, Western Australia then call The IT Guys (WA) on 08 6365 5603 3) Corrupt Operating System Try backing up your data and then reinstalling the operating system. Although a long winded and time consuming process, this should increase the speed of your computer. However, if it does not, we need to look closely at the computer hardware. Need expert help in fixing Internet & Wi-Fi Issues and live in Perth, Western Australia then call The IT Guys (WA) on 08 6365 5603 4) Computer hardware failure The three main areas of hardware failure that cause a computer to slow down are a) RAM (Random Access Memory) b) HDD (Hard Disk Drive) c) Video Graphics Card. RAM (Random Access Memory) failures Most computers have two or more RAM sticks. say 2 x 4 MB or 2 x 8 MB or in older machines 2 x 1 MB. If both sticks fail, the computer will not start and you will probably hear a number of beeps on startup. However a common problem is that just one of the sticks dies and your RAM is then halved. There is no warning from the Action center or the BIOS but by checking Control Panel > System you can check the amount of RAM your computer recognizes. A computer running Windows 7 should have 4 MB minimum RAM but some Windows 8 laptops were only shipped with a meagre 2MB of RAM and grind to a halt when more than one application is open. RAM allows your computer or laptop to multi-task, so you can have more than one program open at a time. The higher the RAM the quicker you can multi-task or have multiple windows open. Need expert help in fixing Internet & Wi-Fi Issues and live in Perth, Western Australia then call The IT Guys (WA) on 08 6365 5603 HDD (Hard Disk Drive) failures Hard Disk Drives store your programs and data and are subject to sudden and catastrophic failures after 5 years or more. However, then do not always die suddenly. Quite often HDD‘s lose more and more of their storage capabilities over time. If a portion of the HDD drive dies, it can adversely affect the speed that the data is accessed and this can have significant performance implications. If the HDD sounds noisy or “clicks” try running a test from your BIOS. Also look at Control Panel > Adminstrative Tools > Defragment and Optimise Drives. Here you can Analyse and Defrag your drives. Make sure you have a full backup to an External Disk Drive before you attempt to do this. Need expert help in fixing Internet & Wi-Fi Issues and live in Perth, Western Australia then call The IT Guys (WA) on 08 6365 5603 Video Graphics Card failures If the perceived “slowness” relates to video or graphic problems then the first thing to check is the video-card. A video card can be “on-board” ie integrated with the motherboard or as the picture left, an additional board containing its own processor and RAM. If your trying to play games on a laptop, it will be using the laptops own RAM (see a) above) but most game-desktops will have a separate video card. Video card’s are difficult to diagnose, try the manufacturers website for tools and utilities for doing this or simple swap it out with a new or spare board and see if that fixes your problems.

How to test my modem – Does my Modem need replacing?
If your modem looks like the one below, it certainly does need replacing. This is a picture of a 56k dial-up modem from the last century. Assuming that your are not receiving Internet speeds near or above the average for your area (how to test your internet speed) we show you some steps to follow to test, tweak and possibly replace your Modem or Modem-Router. Step 1) Replace your modem if more than 3 years old Technology marches on pretty quickly these days. And and for only a few hundred dollars it’s cost efficient to replace your modem to a new one every few years. The box or boxes that connect to your phone line and then to your computer or WI-FI devices are known as a “Modem” or a “Modem-Router” or sometimes a “Wi-Fi Modem Router” Buy popular NBN routers by clicking here Today one box does both jobs as per these examples. A few years ago you needed two separate boxes as per this example. If your current setup resembles this example then upgrading to a new modern “Modem-Router” will vastly improve your Internet performance. You should do this as a first step However, all modems are not built the same and spending a few extra dollars can improve your speed, especially WI-FI speed. We recommend DrayTek modem/routers Draytek Modems If you are an NBN customer and you need a land-line phone, then you are advised to use the NBN modem as supplied by your NBN provider. If you do not need a land-line, you have more flexibility. Modems supplied by your ISP or NBN provider can often be improved upon by using a DrayTek modem/router Another feature of ISP supplied modems is their poor Wi-Fi capabilities that may supply a reasonably strong Wi-Fi signal into the next room, but not much further. For powerful Wi-Fi through the house consider one of these options. Does your Wi-Fi reach all corners of your house? If your NBN technology is HFC, FTTP or FTTC, consider replacing your old modem with one of these Wi-Fi Internet Extenders Step 2) Reboot your Modem/Router/NBN Box at least once per week It’s the stock advice, but it solves an astonishing number of problems. And if you have an NBN Connection box such as this also restart that at the same time as restarting your modem Step 3) Check for Modem Firmware Upgrades Regularly Manufactures often have newer firmware or drivers for wireless access points than what comes with the device. Ensuring you are using the latest of both can often improve both the stability and speeds of your wireless network. So it pays to check for a “Firmware” (the software embedded in the modem) update or upgrade periodically. To do so. Access the admin page of your router by entering your default Internet Gateway or DHCP Gateway address into the address bar of your modem. For information on how you can find this information, click here “How to find the ip address of my Internet Gateway or DHCP Gateway” Once found, enter the Internet Gateway or DHCP Gateway IP address into the address bar of any browser If the IP address is correct, you will be prompted to login If you do not know the specific login and password try: User Name: admin Password: password or User Name: admin Password: admin Once logged into your modem’s admin interface you can do lots of things but we advise you NOT to change anything unless you know what you are doing. It should look something like the following but will differ according to make and model. The above shows options available on different modems to perform a Router-Upgrade or Firmware-Upgrade to your Modem-Router If in doubt, look at the documentation supplied with your modem-router Need expert help in fixing Internet & Wi-Fi Issues and live in Perth, Western Australia then call The IT Guys (WA) on :phone: Step 4) Upgrade to a NBN, Fibre or Fixed Wireless connection. If none of the above works, you may have no alternative but to Upgrade to NBN, Fibre or Fixed Wireless connections Step 5) General tips on increasing your internet and Wi-Fi speed For a small fee we can remotely login to your computer, run the tests and present to your results and alternatives by email. For this to happen you need to be on a computer physically connected to the modem (by Ethernet wire, not wireless) and be available on that computer between 8.30 and 5pm, Monday to Friday). If we cannot complete the tests remotely, we will need to come to your home or office. If you would like us to perform the Internet Testing Service, please call :phone: and make a booking.
