Toshiba Company has once again entered the mobile market with the latest Toshiba Tg01 handset. Competing with the top notch handsets, Toshiba Tg01 has been crafted in such a manner that it has features at par with the iPhones and smartphones. No stone is unturned by the company to provide the user with a complete handset full of outstanding features.

Specifications:
Physically the phone looks good. Its dimensions are 129 x 70 x 9.9 mm and even with fitted batteries it weighs 129 grams. The company has tried to manufacture a thin phone which it seems they have done successfully.

Processor of Qualcomm Snapdragon is another high point in the mobile phone which compels the user to go in its direction. The handset works upon the quad band GSM network and thus provides complete coverage by shifting networks. 3G HSDPA is also included in the phone which again is an important feature as far as the network coverage is concerned and also for multitasking facility.

A 4.1 inches wide touch screen is what you get in Toshiba Tg01 which offers a high screen resolution of 480 pixels by 800 pixels in order to enable the user to view perfect quality pictures. The TFT type touch screen is resistive in nature and also comes with shake controls, three dimensional user interfaces, navigation controls and for auto rotation, an accelerometer sensor which makes it the best phone in market.

Five hours of talk time is what you get with the fully charged lithium battery of the handset and when the phone is fully charged, it offers a standby time of 276 hours. 256MB RAM and 512 MB ROM are not the only memory you will get in Toshiba Tg01. It would also offer the user a microSD memory card slot of 16GB.

Wireless networking means immunity from cables and wires!! A wireless router is a network device that performs the function of directing and forwarding information and it does this using radio waves without the need for a cabled connection. How cool is that?

That’s not all. A wireless router also (and more importantly in my opinion) performs the section function of a hardware firewall which blocks unauthorized admittance to your machine or network (while allowing of course commissioned access). How cool is that?

Today I want to verify you how to set up and behave your router so that you crapper wirelessly enjoy the internet and be protected at the same time. If you don’t secure your system, someone with the right tools module be able to fortuity into (\”hack into\”) your computer.

A) Buy a router that supports the 802.11n standard (the stylish and greatest Wi-Fi certificated version). 802.11n module give you faster data speed and a wider range. The sort doesn’t concern much: D-Link, Belkin, Linksys are all about the same.

B) Hook up the router and go into the routers configuration page (enter your routers choice IP address (such as 192.168.1.1) into your web browser.

C) Now that you are in the routers configuration page do the mass five things:

1) Re-name the router (don’t name it Belkin or Linksys or D-Link). Give it a personal name that means something to you and that you module remember.

2) Change the choice countersign (usually the choice countersign is admin). Many people know this and crapper fortuity into your router using the choice password.

3) Turn soured WAN (Wide Area Network) administration. On some routers WAN brass is called Internet Administration. You don’t want to counterbalance a broad Atlantic just your personal Atlantic (room, office or building).

4) Turn on encryption (use only WPA2 encryption – it is such harder to crack – use a strong countersign for the WPA2 encryption (like a sentence that you module advert with numbers, capital and small letters).

5) Turn soured Universal Plug and Play (UPnP). UPnP opens you up to being attacked and possibly dominated by a malicious website.

When you first buy your computer, it often comes with a few things already installed. Check out your all programs list, or even better, go to Control Panel, then Add or Remove Programs (a.k.a. Programs and Features on Windows Vista and 7). From here you can not only see all your installed programs, you can also remove unused programs. Any program like a messenger, toolbar, security program, or installation software for a dial-up should probably be removed if you aren’t going to use it. First of all, it’s taking up space on your hard drive that can be used for the programs you actually want, and secondly, these programs are probably starting themselves up every time you turn on your computer. This means that they are using your system resources and possibly even your bandwidth, both unnecessarily.

You may have received a free trial of a security suite, like Norton Antivirus or McAfee. You can certainly use them, at least until you install other security software, but if you don’t upgrade it when the trial runs out, you would definitely want to uninstall it. Programs like these are constantly running and performing maintenance tasks. Again, they are using up your system resources, so try to uninstall any antivirus or anti-spyware programs you don’t want to use. Even if it has “run out” and asking you to upgrade, it’s still using your system resources-not to mention being an annoyance with constant reminders to “renew now!”

Check your system tray for programs that are running on your computer every time it is turned on. It’s in the lower right corner of the screen, just beside your clock. You may see an arrow button that will show you more icons if there are more than 3 or 4 programs running. Each icon in the system tray will tell you what it does if you hover over them with your mouse. You will probably see a volume icon to adjust your sound, an Internet connection icon, and an icon for your antivirus program. You probably have other icons, depending on the type of computer you have and what you have downloaded on your computer.
