01What I fix

IT support in Ovingdean.

Ovingdean calls are usually about one of these.

  1. Wi-Fi that dies in the back room.

    Dead spots, dropouts, or a router in the wrong corner. I find where the signal fails and fix it, and get the smart TV and streaming stick back online while I'm there. More on Wi-Fi help

  2. A slow laptop, or a new one to set up.

    Computer repair and laptop support at home: I'll tidy up the slow one and tell you straight whether it has life left, or set up the new one and move your files, photos and email across. More on laptop and PC repair

  3. The printer stopped after a new router.

    It worked yesterday and now nothing can find it. I reconnect it to every computer and phone that needs it. More on printer setup

  4. “I think I've been scammed.”

    A pop-up, a virus, a call “from Microsoft” or “BT”. Switch it off, leave it off, and call me. I'll check it, clean it up, and help you secure your accounts. If bank details were involved, call your bank first. More on virus and scam clean-up

  5. Email that's stopped working.

    It won't send, won't arrive, has locked you out, or has vanished from your phone. I get it working on every device and write down what I changed.
