Tech Tip of the Day (07/31/2010)

July 30, 2010 – 11:04 PM

Our tech tip for today seems relatively obvious, however, we decided to put in this little tip for those who browse the web at internet cafes and other public places. Most people are not aware of the dangers of surfing the web in public places. There are a few things to be mindful of:

  1. You should have up to date definitions of your anti-virus and anti-malware software. If you do not have any of these 2, we recommend that you use Avast and Malwarebytes. Both are available for free. A paid version for enhanced functionality is available in our e-Store as well.
  2. Whenever you walk away from the computer, lock it (Windows key + L). This is to prevent unwanted or prying viewers from accessing files from your laptop.
  3. Use a VPN or any other secured access to your workplace when possible. Most employers allow their employees to tunnel into their network via VPN. You should utilize this resource to minimize the chance of data theft and any other intellectual property theft.
  4. Turn off your wireless radio if you aren’t using it. By leaving it on, you risk the chance of a hacker breaking in and stealing potential data and information. This leaves users financial information and other personal information vulnerable and severe consequences may occur in the future.

Tech Tip of the Day (07/24/2010)

July 24, 2010 – 11:19 AM

Here’s a tech tip that we thought would be useful to those who need to are new to Excel or have used Excel but don’t know how to use some of the tricks that have been hidden within the program. I have found that one of the common problems that I have run into as a Network Engineer is, I need to show the formula for a complex worksheet and need to check all of the formulas.

Fortunately, there is a way to display all of the formulas without going to each cell and checking all of the formulas. With your worksheet as the active sheet, hold down [Ctrl] and [~] key. The [~] or tilde key is the squiggly line found above the tab key, in the upper left corner of your keyboard (for most US and Canada keyboards).

By pressing both of them together, you can toggle between a spreadsheet with the formulas and formulas hidden.

NComputing Page Updates

July 24, 2010 – 2:49 AM

We’ve made changes to our NComputing page and have updated the contents of it to reflect their full product line. Please make Ben Jen Online your source for your organization’s NComputing needs. We offer solutions to small/medium sized businesses, corporations, and the educational sector for thin-client and virtual desktop machine solutions.

NComputing saves companies large amounts of money by allowing multiple users to share a single machine. Each user will feel like they are in their own desktop environment but can actually be sharing their hardware with as many as thirty other users simultaneously, depending on the specific hardware of the host computer. (not entirely true, it depends on the hardware specifications of the desktop/server–it can technically support more in the lines of up to 30 users). That power gives small businesses, corporations, and colleges/universities a way to drastically cut IT costs without reducing quality or performance.

For more information on what kind of solutions we can provide, please contact us today by clicking on the “Request Additional Information” link located on the right side of the site.

AT&T Microcell Device Review

July 13, 2010 – 9:38 PM

Recently, we acquired the ATT Microcell to help bolster our phone service signal for our cell phone service. The Microcell is a device that allows calls, text messages, and data to be transmitted via your internet service (almost like a VoIP application).

Pros:

- It is easy to setup and use
- It significantly increases phone signal and increases performance
- Has a great range and can be used in a large home or office
- Does not use up minutes or data plan if connected to Microcell device

Cons:

- ATT charges a $20/mo reoccuring fee to use the device
- Cost is $149 plus taxes (most are eligible for a rebate) for the Microcell
- Can only be used for up to 10 ATT phones
- Since it uses your bandwidth, you may have a degraded internet browsing experience

If you have call quality issues with ATT, I recommend you try it out. However, in my opinion, this is a way for ATT to worry about not dealing with phone quality issues and to let consumers take actions into their own hands. Overall, its a good device, easy to use, and great for smartphone/PDA users on the ATT network.

Tech Tip (07/12/2010): 8×8 Phone Bad Certificate Error

July 12, 2010 – 10:33 PM

Ben Jen Online utilizes 8×8′s phone services throughout the company due to its easy configuration, easy to use functionality, administration tools, and for its relatively low cost for a small/medium business solution. However, on my extension, which is far separated from the rest of the main network, I oftenly came across a “Bad Certificate” error when it was plugged into my home office router. I am currently using Comcast’s Xfinity service and decided to contact 8×8 about the issue.

Needless to say, after a few weeks troublefree, I finally understood and configured out why the phone was not working properly. I had googled my issue before without coming to much of a conclusion to the issue, and decided it would be more beneficial to share the problem/answer with everyone else. After speaking with the 8×8 technician, we talked about possible ports to forward for my phone and then he suggested that I disable the SPI or Stateful Packet Inspection firewall settings on my router. Since my computer is already well protected against intrusions, I made a reasonable decision to disable this feature on my router. Since then, my phone has been working beautifully. I recommend that others try it and post their feedback here.
