Doctor Dew's How To Page

Lets assume that you are on a website and you found a recipe for some awesome looking cookies and all you want to do is copy the recipe, not the whole article and you sure don’t want to write it down by hand. So let me show you by the steps below !

1. Holding your left clicker down move your cursor arrow on top of the words that you are going to copy. You will see that they are getting highlighted. When you get to the last letter of the word release the clicker, you will now see that all the words are highlighted.

2. Next RIGHT click on any highlighted word and a menu will pop open, LEFT click... COPY

3. Let’s assume that you are going to save the recipe in Microsoft Word. Open the word program and you will have blank page showing. Now RIGHT click on that page and a menu will pop open, LEFT click on PASTE. Now you will see what you copied. EASY HUH ?

If you want to print it just push the CTRL key and the letter P at the same time and the print window will open.

What does it mean to boot my computer?

I know maybe some one have heard this phrase at least once and I think several of you have probably thought of giving your computer the boot too!

Here it is in a nutshell: All the other person on the other end of the phone is asking you to do, is TURN ON your computer. When the computer first boots up or (when you first push the button to turn it on), and that black and white screen with the stuff written on it,....that you haven't the foggiest idea what it is!!! This is the boot screen. If the computer begins to load windows you have passed the booting process
This means to turn off and restart.

USING THE KEYBOARD TO REBOOT:

Press the keys CTRL, ALT, DELETE all at the same time twice (2 times) and your computer will restart. Also if you have a program that is not responding, you can press CTRL, ALT, DELETE one time then click the tab END TASK

How to install wireless or wired broadband internet with a static ip

Lemme explain what a STATIC IP is:

This is an address (basically a set of numbers) that your local internet service provider gives you, and there are several of them.

For most you will get numbers for the IP ADDRESS, SUBNET MASK, GATEWAY, DNS 1, and DNS 2.

If you are only using 1 computer to get on the internet you will click on START and go to CONTROL PANEL then to NETWORK CONNECTIONS.

In network connections you will see a LOCAL AREA CONNECTION 10/100 you will RIGHTclick on this and go to PROPERTIES

You will see a window that has a variety of different protocols (internet rules)

You will need to find the one that has the name of your network card ie: realtec tcp/ip

Again you will RIGHT click on it and go to PROPERTIES. There you will see 2 boxes and 2 little circles where you can change things. One will say obtain IP address automatically and use the following IP address.

And you will also see in the box below obtain DNS server automatically and use the following DNS server addresses.

You will check the use the following on both and here is where you will plug all the above numbers in.

USING A ROUTER (2 OR MORE COMPUTERS)

Plug the router into the 10/100 ethernet card in your computer. (do not plug the WAN cable into the router yet). The WAN cable is the cable that your internet comes through from the access point.

Your router should come with some instructions giving you the IP address to access the router.

Some are 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1.

When you click on the internet explorer button on your computer you should get the page cannot be displayed.

You then will backspace until all that shows is http://

Here you will type the numbers as shown above. A window should open for a user and password.

Most routers will use: admin for either, this will get you into the control panel of the router.

Next you will want to go into the WAN and plug all those numbers in as shown in the section above.

once done click apply and ok. Now you are ready to plug the WAN cable into the router. Now you should be able to get online.
