I have a network with several different subnets/departments.

Do i need to create several domains, each with organizational units for their managers and staff( domains are MAIN, ADMIN and STAFF)

It seems more simple to have just one domain on the network, and create organizational units for each department, and then apply group policies to each dept. (policies will grant/deny access to specific servers).

Could you please enlighten me on the need fo more than one domain? thanks

I have various printers names listed from the old desktop setup. Generally, I need to review and delete unnecessary names of components without eliminating printing functions. I have two printers networked with both computers.

I work in IT and need to move existing print queues to another server. The server name will change "and" so will the print queue names. There are about 50 print queues. I can use a migrate tool to move the queues but I am after a method to check to see the printer installed for more than 300 people and then add the correct "new" printer name. I will need to check the old print queu name and ALSO their default printer as ideally I would like this to all be done via a login script for each user so it is automatic. I am after the best method to perform this task.

I want to have 2 Xbox 360s, and 2 Playstation 3s connected to the internet for online gaming and downloading, etc. 1 Xbox 360 and 1 PS3 would be upstairs and the other 2 would be in the home theatre. Of course I would only be using one system at a time. I would like to know though is it possible to just use 2 ports (1 for both 360s and one for both PS3s used once at a time) for all 4 systems, or do I have to have them all connected at the same time? So is it possible for 2 separate devices to use teh same port on a router?

I'm completely new to wireless networking so please forgive me if it's a dumb question.

I'm a complete n00b when it comes to wireless networking, and I have a question. I see that most wireless routers have 4 ports. Hypothetically speaking, if one needs to hook up 5 or 6 devices, you would probably need to get a second router right? And most importantly, would you need another Internet connection?

I find it annoying when my mum goes on paltalk she gets all the bandwith and it is near impossible for me to go on. And she finds it annoying if I was already downloading something, and she can not go becouse it will be to slow. Is there a way were we always get the same slower but split speed? Eg so if we both are downloading something we would be downloading at the same speed, not first one gets all, seconds goes extremly slow.

I recently set up wireless internet in my living room. I bought a wireless PCI card for my comp. The comp gets a strong signal from the router but it wont let me connect to the internet. The IP adress is reading 169.254.xxx.xxx. I read on another post how to renew my IP through the command prompt but every tome I run the ipconfig/renew command it tells me "unable to contact your DHCP server request timed out."

I want to buy the HP wireless printing upgrade kit. However, the HP website says that my router has to support both WPA and WPA2 to use it. Is it possible then for me to disable the WPA2 in the HP wireless printing upgrade kit so that it is compatible with my router? My router currently has no WPA2, it only has WPA.

I got the Linksys Wireless-G Gaming Adapter last Christmas for my old Xbox, and I was unsuccesful at setting it up because for the original xbox an additional password was needed for Earthlink users and we got Earthlink about 3-4 years ago then they reformatted everything and couldn't login to our account to find the code. I just got an Xbox 360 and I want to see if I can set it up without that code but the installation disc is gone. Is there anywhere I can get a replacement from Linksys or just download the installation program? Thanks.

I recently upgraded my parent's computer to XP and found the correct driver for their modem when XP didn't recognize it. I'm connecting to the Internet just fine, but always at 24.0 kbps (despite adjusting settings to allow for more). My laptop connects on its own modem with same house-phone outlet at 51.0 kbps, so it shouldn't be their ISP. I'm stuck on this one, any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
