- Activating the Modem
https://www.spectrum.net/support/internet/activating-new-modem-t?redirected=true
Activating a Modem
There’s high demand for new equipment during this national emergency. Delivery of self-install kits may take longer than expected. Set your communication preferences to receive confirmation and tracking number(s) when your equipment has shipped.
You can:
- Activate a Spectrum modem for new Internet service or as a replacement for an existing modem.
- Activate your own modem for new Internet service.
- Activate your own modem as a replacement for an existing modem.
If you’re using your own modem, make sure it’s compatible with the Spectrum network and your Internet speed tier.
Note: If you have Spectrum Voice service, a Spectrum Voice modem is required.
Before You Begin
Make sure you have the following information handy:
- The primary phone number on your Spectrum account or your Spectrum account number.
- The ZIP code for your service address.
- If you’re installing your own modem, you’ll also need:
- The MAC address of the equipment you want to activate.
- The modem manufacturer and model number for verification.
Connecting the Modem
The modem must be connected before you begin the activation process.
- Refer to your Spectrum self-installation kit for setup instructions.
Note: If you’re replacing an existing modem, simply move the coax cable from the old modem to the new modem and connect the new modem to an electrical outlet for power.
- Wait for the modem to connect to the network (about two to five minutes). You’ll know it’s connected when the online status light on the front of the modem is solid. Now you’re ready to activate your new modem.
Activating the Modem
- Visit the activation website (available in some areas) listed in your self-installation kit instructions from your computer or smartphone
OR - If the website is not available, call (877) 309-5869.
Activating Your Own Modem for New Internet Service
- If you provided your purchased modem’s MAC ID at the time you ordered Spectrum Internet, you may be connected and ready to begin using the internet. Try going to Spectrum.net to confirm your internet is working.
- If you didn’t have your purchased modem’s MAC ID at the time you ordered Spectrum Internet, you may be able to enter the MAC ID on the activation website.
- If the website is not available, call (877) 309-5869.

How many Number of Connections is Allowed per IP Address?
Our system will only allow up to 25 connections to IMAP at one time per IP. This means that if an office wants to use us instead of an exchange server, they can't have more than 25 concurrent users unless each system has it's own public IP address. Some mail clients use at least two or more IMAP connections per mailbox.
I received a notice to update my email settings or webmail login page:
To update your email settings:
- You will need to make two changes to your current email settings. Change your:
- Incoming Mail Server to: mail.‹yourdomain.extension›
- Outgoing Mail Server to: smtp.‹yourdomain.extension›
To update your webmail login page:
- Log into your webmail service directly. You'll need to use the url mail.‹yourdomain.extension› and replace any existing bookmarks with this new login location.
- For example, if your domain name is webmail.info, then your login url and Incoming Mail Server setting would be mail.webmail.info

- What is the Green Card Number?
Green Card Number, Explained
A guide to the 90 characters on the back of your green card
What is the Green Card Number?
The green card number is an individualized number that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) used to track your case, prior to issuing the card.
A green card seems pretty straightforward when you first look at it. That is, until you flip the card over and see 3 lines of 90 letters, numbers, and a whole slew of “less than” symbols on the back. Located within this string of characters is a lot of important information, including your green card number, which is unique to each green card holder.
In this guide:
Not sure if you qualify for a marriage-based green card?
Start by checking your eligibility.Where is the Green Card Number?
The green card number — also known as the receipt number or the permanent resident number — is located on the bottom of the back of the card, in the first line of a long string of 90 characters. The less than symbols are there simply as space holders.
With Boundless, you get the confidence of an independent immigration attorney who will review all of your materials and answer any questions you have — for no additional fee. Learn more about how we can help you, or get started now!
Green Card Location
Each line on the back of the green card contains 30 characters. The green card number is located in the last 13 characters of the first line, followed by two space holders. To be exact, the green card number is the characters for digits 16-28, followed by “>>.”
Boundless prints out all your forms and documents, assembled precisely how the government prefers. We mail the whole package to your doorstep, ready for you to sign and send to the correct government address. Ready to start?
Green Card Number Format
The first line of the 90 character string on the back of a green card starts with C1 or C2, which indicates whether the green card holder is a long-term permanent resident within the US (C1), or a permanent resident commuter, from Canada or Mexico (C2). Following are letters indicating the country of residence, USA, digits 3-5. The next ten digits (6-15) are called the alien number.
And then, finally, the green card number starts. This series begins with 3 letters, which indicate the service center which received the case for residency status:
CSC – California Service Center
EAC – Eastern Adjudication Center (now known as Vermont Service Center)
IOE – ELIS (efile)
LIN – Lincoln Service Center (now known as Nebraska Service Center)
MSC – Missouri Service Center (now known as National Benefits Center)
NBC – National Benefits Center
NSC – Nebraska Service Center
SRC – Southern Regional Center (now known as Texas Service Center)
TSC – Texas Service Center
VSC – Vermont Service Center
WAC – Western Adjudication Center (now known as California Service Center)
YSC – Potomac Service Center
After the service center code are two digits that represent the fiscal year the case was received. This might not match what your calendar says, because the U.S. government’s fiscal year runs from October 1 through September 30. As an example, this means a case received October 15, 2019 would have a fiscal year two digit code of 20.
Following the fiscal year are 3 digits indicating the computer workday of the year that the case was opened. But why 3 digits, for a weekday? It is based on 365/366 days per year, less holidays and weekends. So if your green card reads NBC 20 045, your case was received at the National Benefits Center in the 2020 fiscal year, on the 45th workday.
The last 5 is your unique immigrant case number — the number of the approved case that resulted in a green card being granted to you.
Together this string is the format of the green card number. If the case number for the example above was 51423, the full green card number would read: NBC2004551423.
Looking at the sample card in the image, for the woman named Test V. Specimen, her green card number reads: SRC0000000001.
If you’re wondering about the rest of the numbers, the second line includes your birth date in year-month-date (YY/MM/DD) format, gender, expiration date of the card (YY/MM/DD), a country of birth and some space holders. The third line will contain your last name, first name, father’s first initial, mother’s first initial, and more space holders if needed.

윈도우10 정상종료 시 종료가 안 될 때
절전에 관한 문제라 하던데요.
최대 절전모드는 사용하고 있긴 한데 그에 관련된 문제점인지 다른 것과 충돌 때문인지. 정확하게 잘 모르겠습니다.
MS의 설명을 보자면 이렇습니다.절전은 전력 소모가 거의 없고 PC 시작 속도가 빨라서 마지막으로 종료한 부분에서 즉시 이어서 작업할 수 있습니다. 배터리 잔량이 부족할 경우 Windows가 모든 작업을 자동으로 저장하고 PC를 끄기 때문에 사용자는 배터리 소모로 인한 작업 손실 걱정 없이 작업을 수행할 수 있습니다. 커피를 마시며 휴식을 취하는 경우와 같이 잠시 동안 PC를 사용하지 않을 경우 절전 모드를 사용합니다.
최대 절전 모드에서는 절전 모드보다 적은 전원을 사용하며 PC를 다시 시작하면 종료된 부분으로 돌아가지만 절전 모드만큼 빠르지는 않습니다. 이 옵션은 노트북용으로 설계되었으며 일부 PC에는 사용할 수 없습니다.
그냥 절전 기능만 써야 되겠다는 생각이 드네요.
해결 방법 ①최대 절전모드 해제 (cmd 검색 - 명령 프롬프트 관리자 권한 실행)
최대 절전 모드를 해제할 때 : powercfg.exe /hibernate off
최대 절전모드를 다시 사용하고 싶을 때 : powercfg.exe /hibernate on해결방법 ② 설정-시스템-전원 및 절전-추가 전원 설정-전원 단추 작동 설정-현재 사용할 수 없는 설정 변경-종료 설정의 빠른 시작 켜기(권장) 체크 해제
시작 - 설정 - 시스템
전원 및 절전 - 추가 전원 설정 - 전원 단추 작동 설정
빠른 시작 켜기에 체크되어 있을 텐데요. 현재 사용할 수 없는 설정 변경을 클릭합니다.
종료 설정
빠른 시작 켜기(권장)을 체크 해제 - 변경 내용 저장
정상적으로 시스템 종료를 하고 모니터는 꺼졌는데 PC는 계속 켜져 있었던 문제를 해결했습니다.

What Is the MBR
The MBR, short for Master Boot Record, also known as the "master partition table" or "partition sector", is a boot sector (a region of your hard drive) that holds information about the partitions of your hard drive and acts as a loader for the operating system you're running.
The Master boot record is created by the MBR generator when you first install Windows on an MBR disk. It's the first 512 bytes of your hard disk as the image shown here.
The MBR partition contains two important components:
- Master Boot Code
- Disk Partition Table
Both two components work together to transfers program control to the boot sector of that partition so as to continue the boot process and help Windows OS boot up successfully.
