If internet connections are decent, most people don’t give their Wi-Fi routers a second thought. There’s no reason to worry about a working router, right?
Wrong. An old router can slow down your internet speeds or have trouble handling multiple devices. Slow internet can be extremely frustrating — especially if you’re trying to get work or schoolwork done from home. There are ways to speed up your internet signal, so you can start by trying those tricks.
Working from home has many benefits for workers, but a major drawback for some employers is a lack of supervision. Without a physical office space, there are few ways to keep track of worker productivity without some seriously creepy tactics.
Magecart attacks are some of the most destructive kinds of cyberattacks you can encounter online. The sneaky tactic involves hijacking an online store and recording a victim’s payment information. Once they fill out a form, the data is sent to a server owned and controlled by hackers. It’s like phishing you can’t see.
Out of all the reasons to recall a product, fire hazards are one of the most serious. It’s never a good thing when a mass-produced item bursts into flames, but when it’s a device made for smartphones used every day, it can be even trickier to deal with.

When you think the features on your gadgets couldn’t get any better, they do. Technology is always advancing, whether it’s an upgraded screen on a new smartphone or a massive update to an app.
When the advances work, they’re great. When they fail, it can be incredibly frustrating to deal with. Even the most user-friendly devices can have glitches that come up from time to time. We saw it recently with the iOS 14 update, which caused iPhone battery issues for some users.
The internet can be a great way to get things done — especially when you’re stuck dealing with a pandemic. You can use it to shop, work, connect with friends or family or any other task you’d want to conquer. But what the internet gives, it also takes away. Fake information masquerading as facts is rampant on the web, and it’s only becoming more prevalent.
If you thought Black Friday was a big deal this year, Cyber Monday completely blew it out of the water. Adobe Analytics reports that shoppers collectively spent $10.8 billion over 24 hours, making it the single biggest e-commerce day in history.
Most of us have at least a few touchscreen devices on hand at a time. Whether it’s a touchscreen laptop, your smartphone, a tablet or some other gadget, it’s common for tech these days to be touch and play.
It’s also common for those touchscreens to be finicky and unresponsive at times. Touchscreens can stop working suddenly or have issues just like any other device component. When it happens, it can be pretty frustrating — or even render your device useless.
