newbie with a question
is there an option that i just haven't found that can be set for webroot to shut down the computer after a deep scan?
 
do i need to enable the windows firewall? my router has a firewall that runs my computer in stealth mode.

Power off the router. 


Get yourself a copy of TeraTerm (it is old, but good)  

Connect your PC serial port to the CON port on the router and run TeraTerm, configured for the serial port, at 9600, 8 bits, no parity.


Press return a few times, and make sure you can see the output from the router.


Power off the router.  

Power it back on again, and when you see something, send a ‘BREAK’ by pressing Alt+B  

The router shoud return a boot> prompt.  

Type 


<b>config-reg 0x2142</b>


Then type


<b>boot</b>


Let the router load, and it will come up with the prompts asking if you want to use the configuration utility.  

Say <b>NO</b> to this.


Type the following when it gets to the > prompt


<b>en  

copy start run</b>  

{press return to the prompts from this command}


When it has finished


<b>show run</b>


Check and see if it has an ‘enable password’ command or an ‘enable secret’


<b>conf t  

config-reg 0x2102  

enable secret {whatever you want as a password}  

no enable password</b> (if it has one of these)  

<b>end  

wr</b>


And the password is changed. 


You should reboot to make the config register change, and also to confirm the password has changed correctly. 


I did all this from memory, so if it doesn’t work, then post here and I will double check, or someone will point out my stupid mistake 😉 the softest way to power down the system is using the gui or:

systemctl poweroff

the second one is:

shutdown --halt now

and then pressing the power button lightly.

for more ways of shutting down your computer, see this excellent cough, cough article:

[how to reboot / t…](https://archived.forum.manjaro.org/t/how-to-turn-off-your-frozen-computer-reisub/124762/1) You can use third party defragmentation tools that have central management consoles to manage the tools, monitor systems and report on fragmentation levels. These tools have the ability to start defragmentation based on a schedule or a fragmentation threshold level (tool dependent). What they also do well is provide reporting on how things are going on the systems you monitor fragmentation wise.


Here is a comparison page for some of the major defragmentation applications:  

[Comparison of defragmentation software](http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_defragmentation_software)


The big three from when I did some research several years ago:  

PerfectDisk  

O&O Defrag  

Diskeeper


Keep in mind that Windows includes basic defragmentation. You can schedule this using TaskSchedule. Basic defragmentation does not defragment page files, hyberfiles and the like. There are some other free tools available that can do various items like page files. This all requires you to piece together and and devise your own monitoring. If you need reporting and monitoring purchasing it is always simpler.


If you can justify the cost of a managed defragmentation program, these will all do a good job. Test each to see how they impact system performance in your environment while defragmenting as well as their management and reporting capabilities.


  

First, don’t wait for your hard disk drive to be hardly used before defragging it. You have to maintain a certain defragmentation period as part of the computer hardware maintenance for your computer system. The question is can you get out of your computer and after that the thing to check is can you resolve any domain names. Try going to a command prompt and checking to see if you can ping your computers IP address then the gateway then try to resolve domain names.


ipconfig /all


Will give you the information you need to check these things.


nslookup google.com


If that does not come back with a IP address then you have problems with your DNS server. you can try a factory reset. push and hold the reset button for 15 seconds and then release. the button should be located on the back of your gateway/modem/router, and you will need a ballpoint pen or toothpick. you should then be able to access your gateway using the standard means with the passwords listed on the label on the gateway.  \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_how can you be in two places at once, when your not anywhere at all?i really want to become a procrastinator, but i keep putting it off.there are three kinds of people, those that can count, and those that can't.'our great democracies still tend to think that a stupid man is more likely to be honest than a clever man, and our politicians take advantage of this prejudice by pretending to be even more stupid than nature has made them.' :bertrand russell Do you have a laptop or desktop?


If its a desktop, do you have integrated (part of the motherboard) or discrete (card plugged into a slot in motherboard)  

networking controller?


Ususally Fedora (at least for the past several years) has had great support for ethernet controllers right 'out of the box'.


Have you used this particular machine with other operating systems and had the internet work correctly through through ethernet?


Did you create the Fedora bootable media yourself? Did you install Fedora yourself? Did you have the computer connected to the router through the ethernet cable while you did the install?


If you have a discrete networking card, you might need unusual drivers that the Fedora live media did not have.


If you did make the live media yourself, did you check the .iso file integrity before writing it?


Are other computers on the same network able to access the internet? Hi [@MathewRD](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/112936) .

 

when the tcp handshake is initiated for any application the firewall will view all policies for an explicit allow. If none are available then it will check again for any implicit allows.
