I have 2 computers attached to a linksys router. The computers are online but can't ping each other, and I can browse the other computer and access the shared files. Under sharing and discovery on both I have Network discovery on File Sharing on Public folder sharing on Password Protected sharing off Do you know what I need to do?
View 6 RepliesI've been pulling my hair out over this one. I suspect it may have had malware infection, ran combofix, TrendMicro Sysclean, reset IPv4, disabled IPv6, reset the Winsock, uninstalled Expired Norton 360, installed Microsoft Security Essentials, tried it with the Firewall on and off, checked the registry for as many Winsock Redirectors and firewalls I could think of. I don't know of anything I've missed, I'm hoping someone here can think of something.
I can ping IP Addresses, but cannot ping any name, not even localhost. The DNSCache is caching names but it won't answer for application that resolves names, Including IE, Google Chrome, Firefox, tracert, nothing! It can browse the Internet with all installed browsers, if it uses my proxy server, since the proxy resolves names for the browser, but if it depends on the DNS Resolver Service it won't work. It is Vista basic that belongs to a customer and is not a member of a domain. I've posted pings, ipconfig /all, and net start below.

I have a netgear box to box vpn which is working perfectly. I have tested the connection using xp computers at either end and they can ping each other, and the routers at each end no problem. Vista machines can ping other xp machines on the local network and also can ping google for instance, but cannot ping through the vpn to either the remote router or remote computers. The request simply times out. I have tried turning the firewall off and removing AV software.

Why? becouse i just bought a new pc and i was playing with a btter ping and i had Win XP. At first i was playing with high latency. But then a friend of mine told me about some kind of trick with some .Net framework stuff he gave me, and my ping went below 100 after i installed it. Like magic. Now i have Vista 64 in my new pc, and i just cant believe that im playing at 360+ ping Again. I have been very carefull downloading only what is necessary, I mean, im not installing every crap i see on the inet. Im running task manager and i cant see anything strange or unusual.

I have a Vista Home Primium computer on my home network. I noticed that i cannot connect to it from my other Windows xp computers yet from my vista computer i can connect to the WinXP computers. In looking into this further i realized that i cannot even ping my own ip address from the vista machine or any other machine on the network. However i can ping the loopback address 127.0.0.1.
I have so far tried disabling the windows firewall reinstalled network card drivers disabling IPV6 support within the dapter checked all ip configuration settings and ensured all computers are on the same workgroup and all seems to be ok..........
I was using my computer fine at first but decided to restart since I've had it on for 100 hours without a real shutdown (I was using hibernate). When I rebooted I was unable to access the internet using any programs such as IE, ff, msn, etc.. but I was still able to ping Google and get a <100ms response.
What happens when I open IE for example is that it simply says that it cannot connect to the internet. When I close it I get "Internet Explorer is not responding" twice in succession. I then get a warning telling me that it was blocked by DEP. So I disabled DEP and restarted but I still had the same problem just without the DEP warning.
This is very annoying because this is on my uni laptop and I need to use these programs almost daily in and out of class, so reinstalling is a last resort option. I'm currently running a previously installed version of Ubuntu on the same machine with no problems with the internet so I can eliminate any possibilities of it being a hardware problem.
T1 is a Vista machine that the is isolated on my home network in that no other PCs (2 XP, 1 Vista) on my network can reach him except T1 can reach the Windows shares on *all* of the other PCs. T1 has no problems browsing the Internet. I cannot ping T1 from the other PCs. Windows firewall is disabled on T1. I have disabled IP6 and the link layer discoveries butthat did no good.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a HP Pavilion Entertainment PC(32-bit OS). About two weeks ago, I was online when my power went out and my laptop shut down(no battery). It powered back up afterward with no problem but a few hours later when I tried, it would not go online. It cannot find any networks in my area. The message I get is "This computer does not have a wireless network adapter installed and configured." It suggests I install wireless networking hardware and verify the correct drivers are loaded. When I click that(Troubleshoot Driver Problems), it tells me to update the driver through Windows Updates. However when I do that, I'm told that I'm already running the most up to date driver.
The problem is not with my router/ISP. My husband's laptops are online with no issues. I'm not the most technologically savvy person so this is beyond my expertise.
I have Vista basic edition. At the CMD command line, I cannot ping anything successfully (e.g., www.cnn.com, www.google.com).However, with my broswer, my Internet connection is working fine.
I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate with IPv6 and Teredo installed and enabled, but it seems I am unable to ping any hosts on the local network (which consists of one other XP SP3 machine) or internet. Both computers are connected to a standard router (Dell TrueMobile 2300, which is

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an XP laptop (Wireless) and a Vista desktop (Wired) connected through a liksys wireless router. I can't get the xp machine to ping the vista machine. All firewalls are disabled and neither machine has any anti-virus or software. They both have connections to the internet and can even share files.
On the vista machine I have the network discovery turned on, the network is set to private and I have all the sharing options turned on. I even unchecked the "local area connection" to unprotect it from the firewall. (Even though the firewall is off). What would keep vista from responding to pings?
for some reason my windows live msn has been acting strangely i cannot sign in online, away or busy as if i do i get signed out within at least 30 secounds i dont have any error messages or anything, i can only appear offline that is the only way i am currently using msn to talk to people as you guess i dont like what has happend and i dont know what to do.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI owned a Asus N50Vn-C1S with Vista Home Premium 32-bit since a month now and a week ago I've been having some weird wireless problem. Sometimes my wireless works properly when i turn on the laptop for an hour or so, after 45 minutes it start getting slower and so on till it stop working. The weird part is that i can make ping to any website so it's not a DNS issue. I have the latest Intel 5100 AGN wireless drivers and the Device Manager said that it works properly.
When this happens I've tryied to flush the DNS via Command Prompt, tryied to change ip address (i use static IP, DHCP disable), tryied to turn off and on the wireless card via switch and Fn+F2, tryied to disable and enable the wireless network connection, tryied to let Vista repair it via Diagnose and Repair connection, tryied to turn off and on my wireless router and modem and nothing works! The only thing that works is if i restart Vista (logging off doesn't fix it either, only restarting OS). Firewall Off and AVG antivirus disabled. Already tryied to change the auto tuning tcp/ip level of Vista.
I think is some Vista issues because i tryied to see if it was my wireless router by using my other laptop (with XP) and it worked just fine. When this happens i am unable to use the browser or any other internet activity like MSN, Skype or even a Weather gadget with the exception that i CAN make a ping to any websites flawlessly! I was wondering if anyone had this problem or could give me any ideas, maybe a misconfiguration (Not very good using Vista, I've only tryied what i know that works on XP). it isnt range problem because I've tryied to be as closed to the wireless router as posible. I have a DI-624 D-Link Wireless Router and it works flawlessly with every other pc's and laptops of my house.
I have VISTA Home Premium. I recently uninstalled Symantec Security. After that, I could not access my home network. Now, I cannot even ping my own machine.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've got a Vista laptop that normally resides within my company domain. I take it home periodically and I'm trying to print to my home computer. The laptop is Vista Ultimate and the home PC is Vista Home Premium. For some reason I can't see the home computer from the laptop. I also can't ping the home PC, but I can connect to the Internet. The laptop is on a WAN connection. If I click on the full map view in Network and Sharing center the laptop can see the home computer there. I assume this has to do with the laptop not being in the same workgroup as the home computer, but I'm unsure on how to work around that.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm still using Windows 98SE and I'm very happy with it. I had the
hard drive replaced 2 years ago, but that's been the only major
problem.
I've been reading this forum for a couple of months now and have
noticed the quantity of problems have increased quite a bit.
I back up important files regularly to Iomega, but fear one of these
days this system will come crashing down.
I'd like to replace my computer with a really good one (no concern for
cost), but fear a never ending battle with a VISTA OS. I also do not
like the prospect of deleting all the junk pre installed programs that
usually comes with a new computer.
Should I wait 6 months or a year until they clean up VISTA or should I
take the plunge now.
Once again, I'm happy with 98 but fear an irretrievable collapse.
I have been installing Warhammer Online yesterday to try the game out and everytime i try to install it nothing happens and my computer begins to be slow.
Then today it suddenly worked and i began to play for like 3-4 hours. Then i got a disconnect from the server and i couldnt log on no more. Suddenly the game didnt worked at all and suddenly out of nowhere i cant log on MSN.
Im also playing League of Legends which i cant play either now. It says that im not online and so do MSN. The only thing who thinks im online is Skype which works fine. My internet and connection is fine too alltho i cant go to League of Legends, Hotmail and Warhammers homepage lol. Now i cant check my emails .
I got this nice new computer for christmas to replace our old crappy laptop but when i game, periodically it will freeze the game for no particular reason this happens on all the online games i play such as: counter-strike(and source), Starcraft, warrock, soldier front, and others
i know for a fact that it is not my internet is not the problem it is very good comcast high speed and i used the same modem on the laptop, where it worked smoothly plus it is not a memory problem. for not only does it have 4 GB of memory, it still lags even when i close all programs, including windows live and AVG in the bottom bar. i can really only assume it is a problem with vista. its sad though, i knew xp like the back of my hand but with vista im near clueless XD
I'm having some issues with acquiring an IP address via DHCP. When I statically set the address and try to ping anything I get General Failure as a result each time. This is the case when I ping 127.0.0.1 as well. I tried using a USB wireless card instead with the same results which is why I do not believe it is a hardware problem.
I have restarted in safe mode with networking which provides the same result. I've checked for any software firewalls that the user may have installed but found nothing. It is a Sony VAIO, so I can't rule out the Sony hid one somewhere and I just can't find it.
The machine is running Windows Vista Home Premium. When in the network and sharing center, there is a link between 'This computer' and (when the address is not static - unidentified network or when static - Network 2) but the next link has a red x through it. When I tell it to diagnose the problem it responds with "There might be a problem with one or more network adapters on this computer" and reccommends that I try to use wireless instead.wireless has the same problem,
Approximately a month ago or so I noticed that my box does not always go to sleep on its own....I can manually put it to sleep and it will stay asleep no matter how long I leave it...As soon as I hit any key on the keyboard it will of course wake instantly....There are also times that it will go to sleep on its own and once again it will stay asleep.....If I do a restart and walk away and then come back 5 to 10 minutes later it is asleep as it should be per the settings....I have researched the crap out of this issue and all settings seem to be correct and indeed must be if it does go to sleep on its own...I am running Vista business 32bit, Intel core2 6600, 4gigs DDR800 Intel Bad Axe D975XBX2 motherboard...
I have been running this machine since Vista was rc1 and of course when the official release was made I then purchased and installed Vista business.....I have had this minor glitch before and it always seemed to cure itself after a week or sometimes 2 weeks...that is probably why I have not worried about it too much....Am I missing something ?? I have of course looked in event viewer but I am not always sure what I am looking for....Who knows maybe SP1 may fix it once and for all but since this machine is constantly kept up to date with every fix needed or posted on win update then I do not really know how much of a difference I will see...This machine has always been smoking fast and rock solid but if it became even faster I do not think I will argue...

View 5 Replies View Relatedwe are doing ping and traceroute on our application using Raw Sockets. This code supports both IPv4 and IPv6. On IPv4 environment, both ping and traceroute works fine in Vista / Non Vista (Win XP, Win 2003). But on IPv6 environment, both ping and tracroute are working fine only on Vista and not working on Windows XP or Windows 2003.
We tried with ethereal and captured all the packets that are being send during ping. It says that "checksum incorrect" in the ping request. When gone through ICMPv6 RFC, they mentioned that checksum has to be calculated along with Pseudo-header. We included pseudo-header based on the information provided on sites, that didn't worked. We tried various options on pseudo header by including and not including source address, destination address. But nothing worked.
Kindly note that ping and traceroute are working fine from command line using ping and tracert on Win XP / Win 2003 in IPv6 environment. While going through some sites and forums I came to know that IPv6 is not completely implemented on Win XP or Win Server 2003. Is it causing this problem?
I cannot ping my xp desktop from my Vista laptop when doing basic connectivity checks. I have shared out my printer attached to the Xp desktop running home edition and want to print on the Vista laptop running home premium. They are both on the same workgroup. I can even ping the Vista Laptop from XP pc, but cannot ping the XP pc from the Vista laptop. I even disabled all windows firewall, Norton on the xp pc as well as mcafee on the vista to no avail. I think that by the laptop not seeing the Xp pc, it is impossible to see the shared printer from XP on the Vista laptop. How can I get Vista to make the connection and see the XP pc?

I've tried with both the Vista and XP firewalls disabled and enabled with the required ICMP exceptions in different combination, e.g. both of, xp off-Vista on, Vista off-XP on, both on. This used to work but stopped in about the last 5-7 days or so. My mobo on ultimate popped and then I swapped two vista name (about 2 weeks ago).
