Internet speed

Filed under: General technology, internet speed — friday71 @ 3:32 pm

Have you ever wondered if you actually get close to the internet speed that you are paying for?

I had wondered this myself. It seems my connection was peaking at some points in the day and less speedy at other points.

I decided to see if I could test my connection…..Well lets just say in my long travels over the Internet highway; after many hours of trying to locate a free way of testing my connection (many of those free ones are not so free) I finally found one.

Microsoft 70-622 test

Filed under: Microsoft, Vista — friday71 @ 4:42 pm

I recently had the 5118 study course for the Microsoft enterprise level desktop support for Vista. Having completed the course and used practice exam software I took the test on Friday the 13th. Not my first choice of dates, but I had a deadline.

Even though I used some of the practice exams to help prepare me there was alot of test questions that actually weren’t covered in the materials.

I would definitely recommend boning up on ip version six and group policies if you are planning to take this test. You might want to locate information on administering group policies in active directory. This will definitely help you when taking the exam.
