View 6 RepliesJust purchased a new HP desktop with Vista and Norton Internet Security. DSL connection with line connection to Ethernet slot. The Internet connection is slower than dial up. The old crappy desktop I'm replacing was faster! Been through Norton and HP support desks, both of which have not fixed the issue. What suggestions do you have? If I can't fix this, I'm returning it and purchasing a MAC!

I just click on the 'x' at top right and it goes, only to reappear at some random time. It's not a problem as such, just irritating.

The "Connect to:" field is "ADSL".The check mark disappears after a hibernation or restart. I have to check the "Connect automatically" and click "Connect" every time after a hibernation or restart to resume the internet connection.

I thought it was a driver problem until I tried another modem that had always worked. I did a bit of goggling and found others have had the problem, but I did not find a solution.

View 7 Replies View RelatedThe OS isWindows Vista 64bit Home Premium. Windows Mail tries to connect via Dial-up when the computer is on DSL, and of course fails. Cannot get it to connect to DSL like Windows Internet Explorer does,automatically. Tried HP support and they finally said I would probably have to uninstall Windows Mail and reinstall it. Any other ideas out there? Is it difficult to uninstall and reinstall Windows Mail? Or perhaps it would be better to just use another e-Mail program like Thunderbird?

I have most of my devices configured but I do not seem to get my GVC modem to install. It is based off a Conexant processor and XP was able to use a "generic" Conexant driver.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a vista ultimate quad core 32 bit machine. It works great. I had to fax a doc yesterday and I couldn't do it. I loaded the program, went to the page, typed in phone number and other info. I hear the fax program dial ... on my speakers, not the modem speaker - the stereo speakers. I do not hear the dial tone - it just dials the number and then it rings 18 or 20 times and gives up. Two minutes later, it redials. I took DSL filter and telephone wire and connected to my backup celeron 1.7 machine and BVP (I think it is) software, I can print-fax a document. So, I know the wire and the dsl filter is ok. I got the fax off my desk but it sure is inconvenient. The kicker is that I did fax from the program 6-12 months ago. It was prior to upgrading vista to service pack 1.
View 4 Replies View RelatedFirst, my system is a Vista Home Premium, 64 bit with 8 GB RAM, Intel E8400 @ 3 GHz. Second, I have Hughesnet broadband; HN7000S modem/router, and a netgear switch, and a Linksys WRT54G as an AP for a couple of notebook computers that are sometimes connected. I also have a dialup account with WT.NET for "backup" (HN is rather
unreliable).
I've have four or five computers on line since I had these two accounts, but the present Vista computer is the only one that keeps trying to access the dailup account, even though the comnputer is on-line with Hughesnet. (all the other computers are running XP.... I'm really beginning to hate Vista.)
I fear to update Vista anymore, because there's always a new trouble with each update. First, the network icon for dial-up went off and dial-up showed not connected after SP2 installation, then bluetooth discovery went dead, after some time whole network center was behaving strangely and finally, week or two before, most strange thing started to happen after a bigger update rollup - a directory or directory link named A or B was created hidden on the system drive, which basically lead to the drive itself, but after trying to remove the directory, explorer hung and eventually went dead- hard reset needed. After a restart or in the safe mode, directory is empty and can be deleted.
After some time again, it's back, causing another hang-up. Spybot found nothing, updated ESET Smart Security is always on and found nothing, internet was disconnected, if it's a virus or malware, it's pretty unknown. Enough for my nerves- I did a complete Vista reinstall, this time I also installed Ubuntu just to have at least one reliable system ready. Well, everything went ok, after installing SP2 from offline package network icon worked ok, bluetooth and wifi as well. My happiness didn't last long indeed- after installing remaining post-SP2 updates, annoying A and B directories appeared again.... and yes, I know it would be much easier to stick with Ubuntu, but I've already spent lot of money for Vista software to just trash it, so I want to get it working well somehow.
my computer slows to a crawl. Control Atl delete yields, after a long black screen,?failure - security options?logon process has failed to create the security options dialog.?Have run complete checkdisk and hard drive tests and everything comes up okay. No events shown in event viewer. I see postings of this problem all over the internet but no solutions.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am having the worst problems connecting using a cable connection, which I need because as I am in Europe at the moment, many sites or private homes are not equipped with wireless. Now, when I connect with cable, everything seems to be working fine, the Toshiba connectivity doctor tells me I am connected, the diagnose program assures me that the problem has been resolved etc. etc. and yet whenever I try to connect (IE, Mozilla, Google, I have tried them all), I get an error screen. I have tried everything I could think of, checking my settings etc. Nothing works.
Let me emphasize that:
1) wireless connection works fine
2) it is a problem with my computer, not the host, since I have encountered
the same problem everywhere (libraries with password protected access,
private homes without password protected access etc.).
I have a strange problem. I have AOL broadband and I'd like to connect to the internet without using the infamous bloated AOL software. I know how to do that using Vistas' "set up connection or network" wizard and I can successfully log in using by username and password. The problem is the connection is very poor when I use this method. The speed tests show the correct speed and downloads are full speed but pages seemingly randomly do not load (for long stretches of several minutes). For example my home page does not load ("page cannot load" error), google does not load, some pages load but not fully with many errors.
This isnt a browser issue (I tried firefox, IE, chrome), this isn't a modem/router issue (I have a laptop that works fine with a permanently logged in router), it's not an AOL issue I can still log in fine with AOL software and then browse fine with firefox, it's not a hardware issue, and it's not a firewall issue (it's off). Therefore it must be an issue with the way windows connects to my modem when using the built in PPPoE broadband connection. I really have no idea what could be wrong. Maybe one of you do?
With Vista, I can get internet for my new Dell XPS laptop over the wireless connection without doing anything other than selecting the connection. No user name or password is needed. But to plug in directly into my cable modem, it does not work. Seems to require user name and password. But I use Verizon and a Motorola SB5101 modem and while it is broadband, I did not think it is pppoe. I don't even know of any user name or password for my account. Am I wrong, is all broadband pppoe? My internet connection works just fine without asking for pppoe login info when I use my desktop with Windows XP. So, it seems to Vista specific problem.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm using Vista Ultimate x64, and a few days ago I started having troubles connecting to the internet. I have tried using both cabled and wireless connections, and both ends up with the same problem. I do get IP-adress, DNS and gateway from my D-link DI-624+ router, and when i try to ping a hostname on the internet ie. vistax64.com it resolves the hostname to a IP-adress. In "Network and Sharing Center" there is a red cross between my gateway and the internet-icon. I have no trouble connecting to other computers with other versions of Windows on my local network. The connection is also set to a "Private Connection".

I have been having ridiculous amount of trouble setting up my Linksys DMA2200 extender and I am a tech. I finally set it up and I also creating some instructions on how to set up the extender properly. Hope this helps you in getting your extender to work and save you the time it took me. All the updates listed are required and I do not have Service Pack 1 installed. I am using the advanced firewall ON in Windows and not using LiveCare and running AVG and no problems. View my site to see the list of items required for configuration to get the Windows Media Center to work properly with the extender. Also, the other link below has all the codec's that the DMA Extender to work. If your extender drops connections constantly set your NIC card to not go into Power Save mode. If it continues then reset the extender (Button in Back) Note: Need to hold it for 30 seconds. Then, turn on the extender and reset to Factory. Repeat setup process. If extender continues to lose connection after turning off again then contact Linksys or Seller for replacement.
View 0 Replies View RelatedIt appears that I do have a very serious connection problem, which has popped up suddenly out of nowhere with no sensible explanation.
When I go to "Connect to a Network" I see that my connection has only one of five bars, with the connection status listed as "Low." When I go to "Control Panel>Network and Sharing," and "View Status" I see that the "IPv6 Connectivity" is listed as "Limited."
I removed the "Microsoft 6to4 adapter" previously because it had a yellow exclamation point listed next to it in my Device Manager after having read on the Internet that it could be deleted without any side effects if a person can't get it working, which was what I did. I now see that the "IPv6 Connectivity" is listed as "Limited" when I go to Control PanelNetwork and Sharing Center, and am wondering if this is due to my having removed the 6to4 adapter even though the system said it wasn't functioning properly. But I didn't have this slow connection problem until just the last couple of days, and I deleted the 6to4 adapter over a week ago.

I'm trying to connect to some unsecure wireless networks at a friend's house for the first time and am only able to connect with local access.
I try diagnose and repair and it says that there are no issues. Three other computers are connecting to the internet just fine.
They signal is good, and there is supposedly data being sent and received but no programs will connect to the internet.
This issue has never happened before. I regularly run a registry cleaner and tried restoring to a backup from a couple days ago and that didn't help.
I recently built a second PC for myself, and decided to try out Vista on it. It installed flawlessly, but there's one problem. Vista does not seem to be recognizing my LAN connection. I tried hard-wiring it from my modem, to my router, to the Ethernet port on the back of my computer with no success. From there, I tried plugging it straight from my modem to the port on the back of the computer.
No success there either. I know that it's not a problem with the motherboard because I installed this program that came with the mobo called 'Expressgate'; and when I run that before my computer loads the OS, the internet works perfectly.
i have been having problems with a slow internet connection just lately.when i am trieing to diagnose the problem with my isp's tech on the phone another problem has surfaced they ask me to connect via ethernet cable to the modem,when i am connected my machine says i am connected i.e the little blue circle in task bar but when i try to open a web page it shows "internet explorer cannot..ect" i have reset the lan adapter and rebooted the modem my sons laptop connects via lan ok and i can connect wirlessly ok is there a setting i have to do .I find that i have to turn my wireless adapter off to get a connection via lan i have updated drivers ect iam using vista h/p ompaq presario the lan adapter is a realtech family fast ethernet adapter.

I get a message saying they're read-only files and I don't have authorization to save to computer A.

I have had a problem keeping my connection to the Internet. when I connect everything is OK until I want to use my browser and then I lose the connection from my server to the web (dialup connection)I am still connected to my ISP but cannot access anything from the Internet zone,It is shown only that I have a local connection only. I can ping my ISP and Ping the ISP's website. so it seems that I have a DNS misconfiguration, question is what do I start looking for?
