Wireless Modem Router: How to fix VOIP problem

How to fix VOIP problem
Hi,
I was chatting with my friend on Yahoo Messenger. I was talking to him on mike which is attached to the headphone. It was working well when in between there was crackling sound and then my friend was not able to here my voice. I checked the same on a different PC but that works there. What can be the reason behind this. How to fix it. Is there a way by which I can create a nameless folder or file on my desktop. And is it possible to change the processor name in windows.

First thing you have to try is to a firmware update. The problem can be due to this. First update the firmware then reboot your computer. And check back again. Try to check your router status that it is providing you a straight connection. I will recommend you to try a different headset. This can show you that there might be problem with the mike.

Check that your internet service is working proper or not. May be it is fluctuating. Try to reboot the router and check back again. If still the problem continues then see the connection properly. If you found any then try to fix it. The problem basicall lies on the type of connection you are using. If you have a high speed broad band internet the the problem will not persist.

Yes you can create a nameless folder in windows. There is some tricks which you can try out. For doing this just choose any folder of file in your computer. Then right click on that folder and choose rename. Now press F2. Then hold the Alt key adn types 0160 from the right numeric pad of the keyboard . Then press enter. Now you can see a nameless folder.

If you want to create a folder inside the nameless folder then you have to do this. You can follow the same above trick to create a new folder but to create a new names file inside it then here is some tricks. In same way right click on the file and press F2 and type 0160 by press the ALT key. Then again release the key and press back. If you repeat this you can keep on creating the folders.

Yes it is possible to change the name of a computer processor. But this needs to edit windows registry. So you have to take care that this can cause system errors. Open Registry editor and then follow this path : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ HARDWARE \ DISCRIPTION \ System \ CentralProcessor \ or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ HARDWARE \ DISCRIPTION \ System \ CentralProcessor \ 0 \ or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ HARDWARE \ DISCRIPTION \ System \ CentralProcessor \ 1 \. Then look for ProcessorNameString and then change as you want. Reboot your system.
