Strange how Pop Rock gave us one of the greatest operatic singers (Freddie) and the greatest classical composer (McCartney) of our time.

Long live rock!

Like Gary said depends on what part has snapped off mate I did the top of a plug the other day and while my breakage wasn't worth fixing if it's in the mobo or drive socket then some VERY careful gluing might put it back together.

That two pack resin based stuff is good but make sure you only use the smallest amount you can and trim the excess with a very fin blade - a scalpel blade is ideal before it is set hard - you do have a few minutes where you can do that when it's in a semi gel state and make sure you give it at least 24 hours to cure / set properly before using the socket again.:)
will give this a go

Kari, that is such a shame, You are going to miss quite a few good things on there, I really love how you can get the step by step guides to almost anything, But if you have or keep getting problems and constant buffering then I can see your point ,Do you think you may have an underlying software problem on your lappy ? :)

Pebbly, it's the same with all our household rigs. Even if, as at this moment, I'm doing some heavy downloading (another rig downloading currently at 2.6 MBps), I always have at least this kind of speeds available:

Speedtest.PNG

Still, Youtube needs about minute and a half to two minutes to buffer one minute of 360p or 480p.

I can't stand it anymore.

I have it happen on certain videos. But in general, they just play all the way through. But it is something about the certain videos, and it is repeatable. A Guy

Kari, have you tried posting this up in our Networking forum for Rayda or the other experts there to look at? We have some of the top talent in the field there.

Hi Kari, you should also try to run Pingtest.net - The Global Broadband Quality Test to determine the quality of the internet connection. However, at this speed, it should not really buffer. I have a 2Mbps connection but the video doesn't buffer (90% of times) even at 720p HD resolution on YouTube. On pingtest, my line quality is A.

Just my 2 cents.

Exactly Jan. I live in a relatively new development (~10 years old) and they put in a RIM (pair gain technology) obviously as a cost saving measure.
I am against the privatization of core infrastructure which is a natural monopoly.
You get crappy service and things break down. Then costs creep back up anyway.
