Good laptop

Verified Purchase:Yes
My opinion laptops are like tires on your car, don't buy the most expensive ones and replace when needed. For $200 these are hard to beat. No they are not the fastest units on the block. Compared to a $1,000 laptop, 5 years down the road, you could be much faster , with replacement units every year... than that old expensive laptop.

We live in an age of technology, with endless resources at our fingertips.

The wonders of the Internet are seemingly limitless, but similar to most things in life, with the good comes the bad. Lurking around every corner are malicious online threats that put your computers, mobile devices, information and identity at risk. While you answer e-mail, you're vulnerable to phishing attacks. Every new link may lead to a virus. Fake Web sites might look legitimate but could trick you into revealing crucial information. Malware could infiltrate your device at any moment. Don't panic — defend your identity and your technology with the powerful protection features of Webroot SecureAnywhere Internet Security, and navigate the Internet without worry.Always-on protection means that whether you're shopping, banking, browsing or sharing, Webroot is there to stop the latest known and unknown threats that put you at risk.

To make life simpler, Webroot manages your passwords, so you only have to remember one, and lets you navigate security on your devices from one easy-to-use interface. This software also analyzes your operating system for existing system issues to get you started with a clean slate. Enjoy all that the Web has to offer without putting yourself at risk.

Better than nothing

Verified Purchase:Yes
Not a fan of AV programs. They have all failed us at one point or another. However you need something on a machine. But remember not 2... so if you have a trial or old version of an AV program remove it first. Virus' are a smaller part of the PC problem these days, Mal-ware is bigger, unfortunately cutting the keyboard and mouse wires (the cause) is not a good alternative. Bad software gets installed because of the users actions. Also not a fan of auto renewing software, so if they have your credit card number, make sure you are still using the software, you might be paying for nothing. Not saying this software does that but most major AV programs do. Be aware.

Back your stuff up. If you simply right click all your photos and send them to this drive.... and anything else you don't want to loose. No body ever got fired for having too many backups. There are a number of backup programs out there but none better than copying files to an external drive and then verify you can see them. Get 2 and copy them again... don't loose anything.

Asus - great basic laptop
on January 18, 2016
Posted by: GlitchGuy
from Hawkinsville, GA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have purchased this basic laptop for all my children over the years and recommended it to others. A laptop is a consumable, just like tires on your vehicle. At $200 or near, it fits this scenario perfectly. Over the course of 2 years most laptops, hinges fail, keys start sticking or falling off, rubber feet gone (causing future over heating), batteries won't keep a charge, AC adapters get broken, etc. It is a lot easier to replace this level of laptop if you have not financed the ranch... move on and probably up to a faster unit....

Back up your Stuff
on April 9, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
It is too easy and too cheap not to back up your stuff on a regular basis. Crypto Virus these days will lock all your data files, keep a backup copy of them off your computer. At some point in your life you will loose a computer, it will get stolen, burn up, crash or get a virus... back up your stuff. It works much better if you do it before one of the things above happens.

Don't use your iPad without one. Spend a few bucks for one of these or plan on purchasing a new screen at some point. Might as well pay now, plus you get the use of a blue tooth keyboard as a bonus.

is it compatible with Windows 10 and the microsoft Edge browser ?

Yes but Edge might not be compatible "yet" with current web sites... suggestion to download Chrome and make your default browser IE 11... and use Edge when you feel lucky.

Ninite.com has an application listed: Classic Start .... this will make your machine look like normal ... Windows 7 ... etc.

Can I use this for Comcast as it requires DOCSIS 300 compatible?

The picture above is a router not a modem. Netgear makes a wonderful 3.0 compatible combination Modem/Router ... at a very reasonable price, I think in the N600 range for about $130. If you already have 3.0 Modem, YES this will work... The netgear 300 is at the bottom end of their line.

My internet service is 100 mbps (down) but pages load VERY slowly. Is Netgear Wireless N 300 router slowing it down? If so, what model can handle it

If you are paying for premium service, why are you using a "basic" router. It's a $30 ... . not 10 years ago 1 meg business customers were putting in $2,000 Cisco or Sonic Wall routers... step up at least to the R6620 AC1200 router $100 ... it will connect at 1 gig (potential), most cheap equipment will not get that much... but all at least 100 Meg....

No matter where you are, bedroom to backyard, you’ll experience a stronger, faster connection with this tri-band NETGEAR router. Get rid of lag, freezing, and buffering while you game, stream and more on multiple devices.
 

Can u connect a phone line to this

I have Comcast n the modem I have requires us to connect the phone line, can I connect a phone line on this
I would think on ComCast you would have a "modem" that would be an MTA ... that would deal with your phone line issue... this is a router... put behind your "modem" ... so I would make sure your modem has the MTA option ... then use this item as it was intended.

Utilizing 4 high-performance antennas and power amplifiers, this Linksys Smart Wi-Fi WRT1900AC dual-band Wireless-AC router offers optimal wireless strength and signal coverage, so you can easily connect devices throughout your home or office.
 

Port Foward

I have a Linksys wrt54gs port forward to my cams in my home can this Linksys ac 1900 have port forward as well ?
Once logged into the unit click on the security tab, then Apps and Gaming, and there are sections for single port forwarding and port range forwarding. Very similar to what you did on the WRT54.

what kind of motherboard is in it

I am assuming an Asus. Laptop parts are pretty much proprietary, except for memory, screens, CD/DVD, hard drives, Wifi & Bluetooth antenna. Not sure if that helps.
