how to search on this ng
Posted: Tue Nov 16, 2010 10:11 PM

Hi.

I haven't been able to figure out how to do a search on this ng. Suppose I'm looking for threads that include this string: "computer ip" or "external ip", how would I do that search?

Thank you,

Reinaldo.

May be

"computer ip" + "external ip"

Un saludo

Hi, Manuel;

Thank you for replying. The problem with that search is that it brings back all threads with the word "computer", with the word "external" and they both don't have to be present on the thread, thus displaying a huge amount of irrelevant information. I wish there was a way to find a string such as "hello world". But searching for such string will bring any thread containing the word "hello" or the word "world" instead of "hello" and "world".

The reason I bring this subject is because, I've experience difficulties when searching here and thought that perhaps there is a trick to finding information.

Reinaldo.

You could try using google instead of using the forum's search function. It can be done by issuing the following search,
Code (fw): Select all Collapse
site:forums.fivetechsupport.com computer ip
FWH 11.08/FWH 19.12

BCC5.82/BCC7.3
