I need help playing a DVD from Germany on my laptop?
So, I shipped movies here from Germany's Amazon in order to practice German. First, YES I DO know the region issues. I have not downloaded any decoding software because my computer allowed me to play them since it was my first time switching regions. However, I put in the Sound of Music and I started having problems. It plays fine until about the 16th or 17th chapter, then it freezes up (no matter what player I am using even the express media player which doesnt require the computer to be turned on all of the way). Sometimes it will then skip to the 32nd chapter. Is there any way I can change settings or download something to my computer?

Get VLC media player, that will fix it. Its because your dvd drive isnt made to play that format, its made for NTSC or whatever the american one is

Has anyone done this before ? I have read people saying that their laptops do not arrive in the condition in which they were packed. Cost for me is not a matter, as long as I get my laptop in proper condition !!!

i'm not familiar with courier companies but i'm sure most of them are pretty much the same. but it would only be in bad condition when it gets to you if you don't prepare it properly in the first place. before you send it for shipment, make sure you wrap it snuggly in bubble wrap. double the wrap if you want to. that way it will be protected from bumps. a well known company like UPS & DHL will be a better choice. good luck

Problem using three laptops to wi-fi router.
Problem using three laptops to wi-fi router...?
I just received and connected a new wi-fi router (Vodafone Easybox 602 - I'm in Germany) so our family can use three latops. I can successfully connect and use any of the three laptops, but once another laptop connects it disconnects the first. So, not all three can connect at the 'same time.' -- Customer service is in German which I can barely understand. Any suggestions?? I'm not a techie, but fairly good with good instructions.

you either check the security options, or you can connect the other laptops with a wired ETHERNET Cable, idk if you'd want that, but thats all i can say. :)

Found one on E-Bay everthing was in German but got the jest of what it is it may be for one computer only.

It may be a wifi access point, not a router. It sounds like you get only one IP address at a time, suggesting you are getting the public IP your ISP assigns to you. With a proper router, it will act as a gateway between 3 computers and the one public IP from the ISP. The router will assign 3 different local (LAN) IP addresses, and share the public IP with all 3 PCs. What is happening is that the last PC to connect is getting the IP, disconnecting the previous owner. That's because the ISP only give one IP per service. If there is no ethernet port on your ISP modem, you may be out of luck. You could get a wireless "client" box to connect to the wireless device from the ISP, and then feed that via wire to a new router, one that has wireless and wired. A lot depends on what kind of "client" boxes will access your ISP's modem. (G or N mode, etc...)

Hard to imagine that a wifi router only lets one device on at a time. I assume this is the usual type with four wired connections and a wifi antenna. I assume you have tried all three wired and that works but the wifi does not? If the user guide instructions are in German and you find a web or pdf version go to Google, then Language Tools and from the pdf cut and paste into the box and ask it to translate from German to English. May have to get a German friend to help with this, however, in the web config page, once you figure how to get there, there is a setting for how many addresses the router can provide. The default may be one so you have to up that to perhaps 5
