At IT Xpress, we can tackle almost any IT problem and a fun part of our job is when clients have unusual requests. One of our clients needed Internet access in this remote building on their farm. Using a high power wireless bridge, we were able to get full speed Internet up to the building from their home, saving them the monthly cost of a 2nd Internet connection. Have an unusual IT problem? Let our IT Xperts solve it for you!

If you use Google Chrome, v42 will soon arrive on your computer. This version disables the Java/JRE plugin by default. So some web applications will no longer work unless you manually enable NPAPI. However, this is a short term fix as Chrome will remove support for NPAPI in September 2015. So if you use any website that relies on Java to function, you'll need to use another browser (IE, Firefox, Safari).
