64 Loses Internet Through D-Link DGL-4100
May 31, 2008
I have been troubleshooting this problem for about a week with no success. I have a Westell DSL modem with a static IP from ATT running in bridged mode to a D-Link DGL-4100 Router running in PPoE mode into a Netgear JGS-524 24 port switch. Connected to the 24 port switch are 3 XBOX 360's and 5 PC's. Four PC's are running Vista 64 Ultimate and one is running Vista Home 32 bit. All PC's and XBOX 360 units have Static IP's.
Many times a day my network loses the internet connection at all 360 units and all PC's. When I diagnose the Vista Network connection it says cannot find the DNS server and mentions this is a problem Vista cannot repair. All settings are entered manually on all equipment including the DNS settings. If I go into the D-Link router settings and look at the status it shows a working internet connection.
To get the internet working again, I disconnect the internet connection through the router settings, wait a few seconds, then reconnect to the internet. Once it shows connected I go back and Diagnose the network connection in Vista again. This time it will not say cannot find DNS server, It will now say no problem found and give me the option to reset the network connection. Once I reset the network connection, I will get my internet back.......

Many programs have links embedded to allow an internet address to be opened e.g. a clickable button to open Internet Explorer (or other browser) and go to the program writer's site, or a button to look for updates. I've only just realised after a couple of months with Vista, that these don't work any more

used to use ThinkVantage's Access Connections to manage my network connection profiles on my Thinkpad. I just recently uninstalled it because I decided to just rely on the Vista has natively.
Since our office requires static IP, I set that up at the LAN properties.
Everything works fine when I start from a clean boot. It's when I undock and redock to the docking station that problem starts.
I lose the static IP configuration. Instead Vista assigns:
IP: 169.254.77.37 (supposed to be 10.11.2.xxx)
Subnet: 255.255.0.0 (supposed to be 255.255.254.0)
Gateway: blank
DNS: correct
I now find myself having to do a reboot everytime I just need to undock and go to a 30 minute meeting when I used to be able to undock and redock without any problems whatsoever.

When a Vista computer comes on the LAN, our DNS server has to look to the IP address: 4.2.2.2 (forwarding) for a name server. Is this because the number of computers that are powered-on, changes? It seems that Vista is trying to take priority over DNS.

Running Vista Enterprise x86 SP1 with all updates applied as per Windows Update. Machine is a HP 6910p with Intel Wifi Link 4965AGN. All power saving disabled where possible; power management running max performance. Router is Linksys WRT54GS v2 with latest firmware from Linksys installed. SSID broadcast disabled. Connecting using WPA-2 personal, AES encryption. Have a few other notebooks (Tosh, HP, Dell) and all work without problems but they are all running XP. This current problematic notebook runs fine if I boot to XP.
Problem: with no discernable pattern, the Wifi connection would be lost and cannot reconnect even though the network is visible (shows up as unnamed). Tried IPConfig renew, right-click diagnose & repair, disable/reenable (from network setting and soft-button on notebook) and reboot. Nothing helps.
Simple solution: click on the network and provide the correct SSID and Passphrase, all is well again. Of course, each time I do this, it's a new Wifi network registration so I end up with 6-10 every week that I need to clean up (mywifinet, mywifinet 2, mywifinet 2 3, mywifinet 2 3 5, etc...). They're all connected to the same thing but everytime it dies, the same setting will not reconnect and I have to register all over again. Registration is standard and set to remember and auto connect. This isn't my only problem with Vista but it is the most annoying. Why, why, why does Vista hate me?

I have a laptop running Vista Home Premium 32 bit. It's fairly new (~1 month) and has pretty much had this issue since day 1. If you leave the laptop idle for a "fairly long" period of time, it will lose connectivity to other machines on the local network. It will do it frequently overnight, but not always, so it's hard to pinpoint when/how long.
Here are the symptoms:
-Mapped drives still show up in explorer, but if you click on one, it hangs FOREVER. I have let it try to connect for several hours and it never gets through
-Using UNC gives the same result
-I can still ping other machines on my local network
-I can still access the internet
-Disabling/enabling the network connection does not help
-Once the issue starts, Windows explorer can not be shut down. You can task-manager-> end process all day and it will not die.
-Once the issue starts, Windows can not be shut down. It will hang on the "logging off" screen for literally hours. The only way to recover from this is to do a hard power down by holding the power button for 10 seconds or so.

I have a Viewsonic LCD monitor. i just put a new pc together with an XFXForce 8600GT video card. The problem is when i boot the pc i see the bios screen fine. it's not until i see 'Micrsoft Corporation' and am about to see the status bar going back and forth that the screen goes blank and i then see 'No sginal'. I'm connected using a DVI-I cable. If i unplug the cable from either the card or monitor and plug it back in i then get video. I sent the monitor to Viewsonic which they said they fixed a problem. hmmm anyway i'm still seeing this proble. If i use a VGA cable with a DVI adapter i won't have this problem. While the LCD monitor was away i used an old CRT monitor with a VGA cable and had no problem.

When connected to a pptp VPN resources on the local domain are inconsistantly available. Previously with XP they were always available even if connected to a VPN. What has changed?
Printing:
From win 7, I can print to a Lan printer shared on the server (2008) Once connected to a remote VPN (windows 2003 pptp), the print que says "Accessed Denied" when trying to print to the same printer. With XP printing was still possible to the Lan even though connected to a VPN.
Mapped Drives:
Sometime they work, sometimes they don't. If I have a mapped drive to a local file server once connected to the VPN I can't list the contents of drive, or access any of the files.Other times even with a VPN connected I can acess the files. If you access the drive before opening the VPN this seems to help. I thought it may be a DNS issue but I have added the server to my hosts file. The host name resolves correctly even after an "ipconfig /flushdns".
Does windows 7 need to resolve service records on the local AD dns server before passing on credentials? The order of accessing DNS servers is the remote VPN DNS server first and then the local DNS server second. Is this why I can always print to a local printer that I installed using its IP address, whilst connected to a VPN, which then prompted me for credentials. I assume the credentials were stored locally, making them always available no matter what the order of DNS servers were.
Once connected to a VPN why can't Vista/Win7 always print/access local resources?
Connected to the same VPNs XP could always access local recources.

Very frustrating week as my internet connection is not working properly, and worse not even consistent. Either my connection seems normal or the link up then down alternating for hours. I'm running Vista 32 Using either my speedtouch 536v6 or Belkin G wireless router to access. Problem occurs with either. Have used filtered dsl line or not. Problem occurs with either. Have shut my comp. off. Problem occurs with either. ISP have visited twice, check the line, shrugged their shoulders and closed the ticket. And worse of all not consistent, so it's hard to locate the problem. It connection will work fine for an hour (like right now) then just stop working. I have reset both modem, reset user setting, obtained new ip, etc, etc.

Everytime i go to send a email to someone threw a link it doesnt let me, I get this message, windows mail could not be started because your computer is low on system resources. Most likely the problem is your computer is low on memory or is unstable.... I dont understand? This is a new comp and I have mcafee as a virus protection.

I have an ftp site and I have a short term need for a number of not so computer literate people to download items from it. I'd like to be able to send a link in email and have them all just click and go to the site - or - just have a download start. The extent of my http knowledge stops with setting up the site and paying he bill.

I can't link up my XP to my Vista Home Premium computer. All service packs installed. Each computer can see the other but I can't access the XP's shared folder. I am using cross over USB cable and have installed drivers for same. I get message trying to access my XP from my Vista pc - "folder is not accessible. You may not have permission to use this network resource." "Not enough server storage to process this command". I have granted access on the XP to share this folder. Is there a simple, 1,2,3 step by step process to ensure that I have met all necessary criteria to make a pc to pc connection?

I had successfully setup a network of a desktop running Vista and two laptops running XP. One of the laptops "died" and we replaced it with another running Vista.
Try as I might, following all the instructions I can find, I cannot link this new laptop. Should I just abandon the old network and start fresh?

Few days back, I was installing/uninstalling some programs. I don't know what went wrong, but I found the links in "Computer" are not working. When I open "My Computer" ("Computer" in Vista), all the links like "Device Manager", "Remote Settings" etc are not working. It says for "Device Manager" - "Windows cannot find '%SystemRoot%\system32devmgmt.msc". However, if I run the same command from a DOS window, it exists. This is same for all the other links.
My sound icon in the task bar is also marked a permanent red cross. If I open Volume Mixer, it says - No audio device found. But I can still hear sound.

I just installed Vista SP1 and am convinced that my never before seen printing problem is due to SP1 (can no longer print anything on my HP psc 1350v All-In-One printer). There are no driver updates available from HP so it would appear that backing out SP1 (or a buying new printer) are my only options. Can someone supply a link to the process for uninstalling SP1
