Wireless Network Security
Mar 23, 2008I have a Toshiba laptop that is connected to a wireless network in my home. My concern is security for this computer. I have been reading alot of articles on the internet concerning security, and most suggest several things, one being encryption, The others are enabeling static ip address and wireless mac address filtering. I contacted Verizon and asked them to help me secure this connection to my laptop and they enabled WEP and assigned a key. I then asked about the other two options mentioned above and they said all i needed was WEP enabled. Finally my question: Is that enough?

Oct 8, 2009I just got my Wii back yesterday. I had to send it off for repair because my son (3 years old) decided to put in some playing cards and a box top lid. My problem is that before I sent it off for repair I could connect to internet just fine. Now I can connect as before because my routers wireless security is disabled. I set up the router that way on purpose. Now I want to enable the wireless security, WAP Personal, which I did and reconfigured all laptops, everybody can connect. Now, when the Wii tries to connect I get error code 51030...that tells me that there is now WI-Fi access for it to pick up. If I disable wireless security it connects just fine. So, How do I keep my wireless WAP personal enabled and still be able to have the Wii connect as well.

View 9 Replies View RelatedComputer With Vista That Had No Modem
Mar 23, 2008I bought a computer with Vista that had no modem. I installed my old modem - vista didn't like that - BSOD on shutdown. Uninstalled that, bought new modem listed as Vista compatible, is in Device Manager as Agere Systems PCI SV92PP soft modem. It is listed as operating correctly. Today I downloaded from Windows Update an optional update which was a later driver, from 10/07. In Fax Settings, the modem shows as connected, but when I try to create an account, when I choose Receive Automatically or Notify Me, I get a box that says "To send a fax, you must first connect to a fax modem or server. To see how to set up your computer to send and receive faxes, see Help and Support". The only way I can create an account is to say I'll choose later. In that case, I can neither send nor receive faxes automatically, although I was able to receive faxes manually.

View 9 Replies View RelatedConnected To ADSL Modem: Can Access
Apr 30, 2009I have my wife's and my own desktops (both XP Home) and my laptop (Vista Home Premium) all connected to the same ADSL modem. I want to set permissions so that I can access and do what I want with any file on any machine from any other machine.
On the XP machines this was a breeze. I can access either machine from any other machine and do whatever I want. But on the Vista machine, I'm prevented from doing this. The only files on the Vista machine that I can access from the XP machines are in the "Public" folder. I can't access the Vista machine's root menu or even the files in my own folder from the XP machines. When I try, I get this complaint:
You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Access is denied. "T-pc" is the name of the name of the laptop in the "Workgroup" and "rlb" is my folder. I'm the administrator, so where do I go from here? How do I make Vista let the other machines access my files?

Mar 16, 2010I am working on a toshiba satalite for someone but can not get internet access at my home. I have it plugged directly into the comcast modem but get the "local access only" message that seems to be such a problem for wireless users. When doing ipconfig /renew I get a message stating that windows could not contact the dhcp server. There doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the modem as it works fine with XP and Linux machines. Everything I have found related is talking about wireless issues and I've tried the registry edit provided by MS for setting the dhcp flag value to 1 and also disabled IPv6 and power options in the adapter configuration.
View 6 Replies View RelatedZonet Fax Modem: How To Send Faxes
Jan 20, 2009I bought a Zonet ZFM5621MT fax modem for $10 because I need to send faxes via my computer. My old fax machine finally broke. However, I cannot figure out how to send faxes through this damn thing. I thought I would just send the document to a fax/printer driver using the "Print" command, but there's no fax modem device under "Printers". When I looked in the Control Panel under "Phone and Modem Options", the computer does not detect a modem. When I powered up my computer after installing the modem into a PCI slot, Vista reports that it had successfully installed the driver for the hardware (it didn't specify what kind of hardware though, but I figure it must be the fax modem since it was the only new thing that I installed). I also manually downloaded the fax modem driver from Zonet (the manufacturer), and I installed it. It also reports that the driver had been successfully installed. However, I still don't see any modem under Device Manager or in the Control Panel.

Safe Modem And Boot Up, Get Blue Screen

Whenever I restart it (or even turn it off and then back on without leaving it for a long while), it will crash during the loading screen, and then restart, and then crash, creating an endless loop unless I boot up in Safe Mode. Once I'm up in Safe Mode, and go to restart, there are no troubles at all, and I can use the computer normally. So, for the time being, I must for boot up in Safe Mode and then restart in normal mode. Occasionally, I get a blue screen before the boot up fails and the computer shuts down, only to restart and continue the endless cycle. When I do get to the desktop (using the Safe Mode trick I mentioned earlier), I may get an error message, containing this info:.....
