Search found 26 matchesRe: What's yours ?I use AVG 2014 Free and Advanced System Cares, which puts things straight after a Windows update and keeps things running smoothly. The best advice is to delete any emails that are not from from one of your contacts AND that have a logical and reasonable subject line, don't visit dodgy websites and ...
Re: mobile dataWe had an 18-month contract with Vodafone for "unlimited data" at €50 per month. After 6 months this went down to 10Gb and after 9 months it was capped at 5Gb, after this limit we were left with no internet connection unless we paid €12 for another Gb or two. I wouldn't go near a contract ...
Re: netbookThis sounds like the computer cannot renew the IP. On a working computer, Google the operating system and "renew ip microsoft fix" and look for the microsoft site in the results. Download this, copy it to a pen drive and run it on the computer with the problem and it should sort it out.
Re: VGA and HDMI leads ?If you're connecting with an HDMI lead then you won't need the VGA lead - it's either/or but you're better with the HDMI. The shorter the lead the better the performance, so just get the length you need or the shortest you can get away with. I'm not convinced that gold connections are any better the...
Re: BARCELONAWe went with Ryanair to Barcelona from Alicante. It worked out cheaper than driving up and was a lot less trouble.
Re: Copying text messages?If you can't copy to SIM why not forward from the first phone to a 3rd phone, change the SIM to the second phone and get the 3rd phone to forward to the second.
Re: Taking cigarettes from Spain to UKAbout 7 years ago my mother posted a carton of cigarettes to me in the UK from Spain. HMRC confiscated them and wrote to tell me that I needed to pay £48 duty to get them returned. It turns out that you are able to send a carton as a gift to a family member. After sending off birth and marriage cert...
Re: Copying text messages?Just forward the SMS to the other phone number. Do you have a Forward option or do you get one if you press and hold on the text of the message you want to copy?
Re: Boarding Pass PrintingThere isn't a bus if the rear stairs are not used as they would be using the airbridges to walk from the plane to the terminal. If you're going down to the runway to walk/get a bus, then the rear doors will be used along with the front doors. It looks like Ryanair are paying to use the airbridges or...
Re: Samsung Galaxy AceIf you go to the google play store and search "stopwatch" there are some good ones. I have one called Stopwatch which is great and it's free.
Re: Shopping online and deliveryPosh Plastics deliver the worlds best quality plastic glasses and crockery free (over a threshold, otherwise £7) to anywhere in Europe from the UK.
Re: ADSL Cancellation with MovistarYou need to go to the post office to send a Bono Fax - this is like a recorded delivery letter with a confirmation that it's been received. After this the Officina del Consumador will fight your corner as this is proof that they have received your fax. We had a nightmare with Vodafone but the receip...
Re: Connecting a laptop to a router ?If this doesn't work then post the details of your machine and the version of windows you are using. You either need the driver for your ethernet connection or you need to set up a new connection (always connected with broardband without passoword).
Re: Connecting a laptop to a router ?Look on th back of the router at the cable stots - they will labelled 1,2,3,4 (all the same, use any) or Internet etc depending on the router. Now find one the same on your laptop - it is a square hole that has a connection like a big phone connector. Now you need a cable to fit between these - it i...

Re: Red DaysEroski in Dos Mares, San Javier (777) will be open until 10pm.
Re: Live TV on IPadYou can always connect through a proxy so that you appear to connect to the internet from the UK. Expat Shield is a free program to do this (but full of advertising pop-ups and reduced bandwidth) or Witopia is an excellent package for a couple of euros a month and you can connect from any country an...
Re: wifi helpYou could get a larger aerial to replace the small one on the router, this would give a better signal. Places like Worton have 30-40cm aerials to replace the 10cm one on the router. The alternative is to get an Access Point. This is like a router that will take the wifi signal it receives and then b...
Re: home broadband and wifiI'm a bit further south and use TVHoradada for internet - although they are now joined with Teleast. We pay 25 euros for 6mb and they also do phone (10 euros), UK calls (10 euros) and now TV packages. It can be switched on and off as you like but I think it runs on calendar months. We've been with t...
Re: Players Wanted for 7 a side at Playa FlamencaHi, I'm not too fit and not very skillful but I'd be up for a kick around and some fun. I'd bring someone else with me so put me down for 2 places if you're still looking for players.
Re: ITVIf you're watching ITV, install AdBlock Plus on Chrome or Firefox and you won't have to watch the adverts in the show.
Re: ITVExpat shield is ok and free but its gets slow at peak times and quality can vary. I've gone on to witopia - one month is about £3 but I've signed up for 6 months after a trial. It's consistently faster than expatshield so programs aren't always stopping and there is no advertising or popups. It does...
Re: FOR SALE: Acer Aspire 3000 laptopI'm looking for a second hand laptop around the €100 mark if you want to move this.
