Try hard reset your spare router. On back side the sticker may mention the default IP address, admin login userid password in case any.

Try these guides..There are plenty on YT, this is just one. I have not verified the contents! *www.youtube.com/watch?v=GA46icBLDu8

Generally a router can be used as a wired extender. Even if router does not explicitly have AP mode. There are plenty of guides on YouTube that show how to do that. You need to give it a try and check if your Jio router can work as AP. If it came from ISP, it might be locked for some settings.

I doubt if you can connect two independent routers (that are connected to 2 different ISPs) like that. It may not serve any purpose. If I correctly understand, there are something called as Dual-WAN routers that allow you to use 2 ISP simultaneously with load balancing and all. But I have no...

What is the size of NVMe SSD? Keep at least 170 to 180 GB min for Windows 11 keeping in mind all programs/apps that you want to install plus pagefile + hiberfil sys file + profile + restore points and other data. Plus leave at least 50 GB free space between the next partition so that in future...

Yes, I am anyways not buying it now because even if the feature is available on the remote it is a bit inconvenient. I just wanted to share my experience because such a lousy customer support during pre-sales was never expected from Samsung.

I shortlisted Samsung M5 27” LS27FM500EW FHD Monitor which has 2 HDMI ports and being Smart monitor comes with remote. I just needed a sort of confirmation that the remote can be used to switch between HDMI inputs 1 & 2. I read the specs and user manual but it was not clear from it either. I...

Updating BIOS is always risky and if something goes wrong you may end up bricking the board. You need to first finalize the CPU what is supported and available currently, then check for that CPU what is the minimum BIOS version needed (i.e. since which Version it is supported) If your current...

If this is your motherboard -- *www.asus.com/motherboards-components/motherboards/prime/prime-a320m-k/ Then go to Support -- www.asus.com/motherboards-components/motherboards/prime/prime-a320m-k/helpdesk_cpu?model2Name=PRIME-A320M-K For each supported CPU the BIOS version since which it is...

Good to see you fixing all the issues and getting good speeds out of your new SSD. Enjoy your system.

That's a good point. May be the slightly lower voltage in the battery was enough to hold the data but caused some delays in initialization. 12 secs is quite okay. How about one more restart before Windows loads, is that resolved?

One more thing you can try, if you are comfortable is to try to run the system bare without the cabinet. But this is tedious and requires you to put everything back into cabinet later and can damage something if you are not familiar with PC building. You can power on the system by momentarily...

Give this trick a try. Shut down Windows. Turn off Mains button. Disconnect the PSU plug from the socket. Now short the two pins of PSU plug using a metallic object like a screw driver for 30 - 40 seconds. Now long press the power on button on cabinet (Keep it pressed) for another 30 - 40...

Does not seem normal. What is the Last BIOS Time shown in Windows - Task Manager -> Startup Apps -> Last BIOS Time What if you even disconnect USB kb/mouse and check again?

If your Draytek router has VPN Server you can use that by switching to static IP and Bridge mode.
