How do I fix the "No internet, secured" WiFi problem in Windows 10?
I've seen that with my own Surface Book and Surface Pro 1. The fix for me was a bit simpler…Make sure the device is completely updated and all updates were successful.Click on the offending WiFi connection (in the System Tray) and click “Forget”. Also, if you have an Ethernet cable plugged in unplug that as well.Wait until it completely disconnects from that Access Point. You should have no connection to the Internet at this point.Put the device in Airplane Mode.Reboot the device. If the device is still in Airplane Mode after rebooting take it out of Airplane Mode.Go back to the WiFi connection (in the System Tray) and connect again. DO NOT enable “Connect Automatically”.If it still says “No Internet, Secured” just wait a few minutes — it should clear up. It actually shouldn't take that long. If you prefer you can now enable “Connect Automatically” for that connection.If this fixes it for you then what has happened is simple: The “backed up” connection information has gotten garbled or corrupted and needed to be reset for that device. This used to happen to me all the time with email accounts when I was heavily involved with the Insider Program.I hope this helps!

Do local police departments have the ability to listen to cell phone calls? If so, could this power be abused by an operator?
For Part 1 of question - simply yes, with lawful authorization the police can listen to your cell phone calls as well as intercept text messages, chat messages and discover the location of your phone using its own GPS technology. Of course, you would have to be committing a crime where any of these tactics would be deemed necessary. Often there is a higher threshold of evidence required prior to authorization of any warrants or orders to get access to your information this way.There are specific callers and phone numbers that will get identified that the police department will be authorized to listen to during these intercepts. Could it be abused by the operator? Do you mean the police technician monitoring the calls? They can't use any evidence collected unlawfully against you and should you discover that the police wilfully obtained evidence knowing there method was unlawful you might want to get some legal advice.However if you just mean could the phone carrier listen and abuse their ability to access your calls? Unrelated to policing, about a decade ago I learned that an ex of my girlfriend at the time worked for the phone company. Apparently he was a jealous or curious guy and would often listen in to her calls to see who she was talking to or dating. I don't know what kind of quality control exists at the phone companies now to prevent anything like from happening in this day and age though.
How do you get Netflix on DirecTV?
There are several good answers already.As far as I know, no DirecTV receivers have a built-in Netflix Application so you need another device, like a Smart TV, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Roku, or some other multimedia network device like a PlayStation 4 or an Xbox One. Many Blu-Ray and DVD players also have built in Netflix apps. When you want to watch Netflix, you change your source to this other device from your DirecTV receiver to watch Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, or other streaming video services. There are subscription fee for each streaming service.Enjoy.
How many devices can connect with a WiFi modem?
There are some excellent answers here, including solid technical information:How many concurrent users can a single Wi-Fi AP handle?A summary of these answers explains these facts:The 802.11 spec supports 2007 simultaneous connectionsBut practical constraints reduce this greatly.* Most consumer routers would choke beyond anywhere form 15~70 devices depending upon the router/access point architecture. The better ones support more connections.Routers and AP with two or more radios count as separate access points. They support 2 or 3 times as many simultaneous connections.As a practical matter, multiple connections reduces the bandwidth available to each connected device. You can expect a degraded experience from any router (even the newest AC routers) if, say, 10 or more devices are streaming video content or backing up data across a shared wireless connection.* Designers make hardware and software trade offs that limit the number of simultaneous connects. For example, there is limited storage available for WAP/WPA encryption keys. Also, newer MIMO antennas are software controlled to “steer” the radio beam to each connected device.
