Usually this is accessed with a code/password given at reception which is entered on a login page which comes up when first trying to access the internet. All has been OK until a couple of days ago when my…

iPad Air v iPad Air 2
Thoughts on which to go for? Bear in mind I currently have an iPad 2 so quite a big improvement whichever I go for. Price is a consideration and don't really want to go over the £360 mark, but would consider if one was massively better, which I don't think it is.

Some websites freeze your PC
Before you think it, nothing nasty, tawdry or sinister going on here. I have been commenting on a few media sites (well known newspapers), and as soon as I go to make a comment, my PC seems to go wild - the fan speeds up, the PC seems to run 100 times slower and the mouse acts as though it has been shot full of LSD. It has…

Android Email app
I've just got a Moto G. I've tapped on the pre-installed email app because i use hotmail. But it just asks me if i want to merge my gmail and hotmail accounts and just use the gmail app which i don't want to do.
