Problem details
First occurence of problem: since i bought it
Problem frequency: always
Problem description:

This modem can be connected to internet easily at my rented house in serdang, but cant connect at my own house in klang. However, i have a prolink working fine in my own house (which i use to post this).

This suggests that the belkin is working fine as it can connect at my rented house in serdang. Then why it cannot connect at my own house in klang? Since the prolink is working fine at my own house the streamyx line should be fine.

What is the cause of this problem? plz help T.T

I have also read a lot of treads regarding this modem problem.. but couldnt find an solution. The most possible i've seen is to change the location of DSLAM.

SP3 Removes checkbox for IE

lennnostra — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 09:56:02 +0800

i just got my eeepc 1000h today, and i found that my checkbox to remove IE from the desktop is missing..both under Customize Desktop and under Internet option>advance

researched online and found that SP3 had removed the checkboxs for IE as well as the IE icon on the desktop.

however, i think that Asus had restored the desktop's IE icon, which i dont want.

how do i make the checkbox reappear again?

or at least how do i remove it the icon?

its not a shortcut, in other words when right click theres no delete or cut.
