General Tech Support Questions

Q: What do I do when my computer won’t turn on?
A: First, check the power cable and wall outlet. If that’s not the issue, unplug everything, wait 30 seconds, and try again. Still nothing? That’s when it’s time to call in DABL.

Q: Why is my computer so slow all of a sudden?
A: It could be a software update, background programs, or even a dying hard drive. A remote tune-up might be all you need — or we’ll let you know if it’s time for an upgrade.

Q: Is it worth fixing an old laptop, or should I buy a new one?
A: It depends on the model and the issue. Sometimes a $100 SSD upgrade can breathe new life into an old machine. We can assess and give you a straight answer.

Home & Office Tech

Q: Can I get help setting up my smart home devices?
A: Absolutely. We set up and secure everything from smart lights and thermostats to Alexa, Google Home, and even smart fridges.

Q: What’s the best Wi-Fi setup for my home or small business?
A: That depends on the size of your space and how many devices you have. We recommend mesh systems for large homes and offer professional installation and optimization.

Q: Why does my Wi-Fi drop out randomly?
A: It could be interference, outdated equipment, or poor placement. We diagnose and fix dead zones and weak signals — fast.

Remote Support & Troubleshooting

Q: Can I get remote support even if I’m not in Calgary?
A: Yes! We offer remote sessions to anyone in Canada. As long as you can get online, we can help.

Q: How does remote tech support work?
A: You’ll get a secure link to let us into your computer temporarily. We walk you through it step-by-step, and you can watch everything we do.

Security & Protection

Q: How do I know if my computer has a virus?
A: Common signs include pop-ups, slow performance, strange error messages, or browser redirects. We can scan, clean, and secure your system.

Q: What’s the best way to protect my personal data?
A: Use strong passwords, enable 2FA, keep software updated, and never click suspicious links. We can set up your system to keep you protected.

Data & Backup

Q: Can you recover deleted files?
A: If they haven’t been overwritten, there’s a good chance. Don’t use the drive until we take a look — recovery is possible!

Q: What’s the best way to back up my computer?
A: We recommend a 3-2-1 strategy: 3 copies of your data, on 2 different media, with 1 off-site (like Dropbox). We can set this up for you.

For Businesses

Q: Do you provide IT support for small businesses?
A: Yes! Whether you need help with emails, networking, hardware, or general tech headaches — we’ve got you covered.

Q: Can you help us switch to a new office or upgrade our systems?
A: Definitely. We manage everything — cabling, devices, networking, phones, security, and making sure nothing gets lost in the move.
