    TP-Link AC1300 Modem: Signal Strength Displayed As Very Weak!

    Would someone take me through this step by step? I would like that. I'm a seasoned casual user, but not a technical expert. Thank you again.

    TP-Link AC1300 Modem: Signal Strength Displayed As Very Weak!

    Thank you for the posts. I have downloaded and installed Synaptic on my system. My computer was delivered to me with Ubuntu preinstalled (I did not want to buy a desktop with Windows, then dual-boot from there, so I decided to go all Linux, because I considered that the best way to go). Is it...

    TP-Link AC1300 Modem: Signal Strength Displayed As Very Weak!

    Greetings, People! Long time no see. Since July, I have been using my new desktop, a custom-built SilverStone unit from Current Build Computers. 64-bit, 250 megs Samsung solid state, AMD Athlon 200GE with Radeon Vega Graphics (2 cores, 4 threads, 3.2 GHz), and an AMD AM4 A320-S2H...

    Can't Install Tor Browser By Command!

    Yikes! What does "Avagudweegend" mean? And my age has caught up with me: The seasonal equinox is next weekend, not this coming weekend, that's on Saturday and Sunday, the 22nd and 23rd of September. One more week to go. But enjoy this coming weekend, and thank you for the kind responses...

    Can't Install Tor Browser By Command!

    Hello, Again, People...Sorry for being away so long, but I did return. It looks like Google (is it OK to mention them) is waging an all-out war on anonymous surfing; I saw a couple of embedded frames with the G-famous "we do not allow anonymized browsing" warnings imposed on a scrambled video...

    Here is the result of your advice: I do my best to follow your steps, but get this result. What similar directories would I list? Thank you for your help.

    Can't Install Tor Browser By Command!

    Hello, Wizard, Please excuse my lack of expertise here, but do I execute the following from Terminal? I'm on 18.04, 32-bit; I forgot how to find the name of my version because I did not write it down or keep it in a quick spot. I plan to upgrade to 19 within a week. There is so much more to...

    Can't Install Tor Browser By Command!

    Thanks for the link...I will need to take my time on this, maybe for a day. I'm not a computer geek; I feel frustrated sometimes when it comes to using certain command lines. As you probably already know, Windows was boot and click when I started computing back in '93, and many users were...

    Can't Install Tor Browser By Command!

    Greetings, People! I would appreciate some expert tips from someone on how to install the Tor Browser from the command line (in Terminal) with Ubuntu MATE. I recall that it was only a few months ago that Ubuntu and Debian would extract the .zip files and voilà! The browser is ready to run. I...

    Is It True?! About Ubuntu MATE? Plus, My Final Zorin Thoughts

    G'day, Y'all... I'm back. Thanks for your tips; I will revisit your posts for a closer read this weekend. And I plan to have a machine with bigger space in the not-too-distant future, by the end of the year, I hope. When that happens, I can really sample the variety of flavors and distros in...

    Is It True?! About Ubuntu MATE? Plus, My Final Zorin Thoughts

    Kind words, indeed...thank you! At least I have a better picture of Zorin, and I don't intend to install it again. And while I'm on the subject, the Zorin website has instructions on how to install Zorin using Etcher and a link to download the installer. Etcher really does simplify the...

    Is It True?! About Ubuntu MATE? Plus, My Final Zorin Thoughts

    Well, Friends, I couldn't keep going any longer: I showed Zorin the door out of my computer and threw the luggage outside (kinda' sorta'). The frustration was worse than the scorching sun out in the deserts of Australia! My apologies to the Zorin folks, I'm just talking about my experiences...

    Not Sure About Zorin OS, Will Test For A Couple of Days

    Thank you for the compliment, I will take some time to weigh your recommendation. But for now, I will continue to post here on the forum with my comments and observations. I didn't know that the Zorin brothers launched this OS, I had assumed from the website that it was a new OS, just getting...
