View 8 Replies View RelatedI am using a windows Vista 32 bit home premium notebook computer for which the wireless network detection has stopped working. I updated the driver for the built in wireless card with out any results. I also tried a plug in wireless card which windows detected and said was working properly and this did not work either. This leaves me to believe that something is wrong with the OS. I can get on the internet via dialup modem and also by the ethernet connection with a DSL modem. I have been to several hotspots that I know have wifi and no networks show up. All critical windows updates have been installed.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have problem with connecting to a network through wireless. I think I got it because I installed a new hd and vista, so my laptop is essentially new. But for some reason, I seem to not be getting any wireless connectivity to the internet. It used to work before my hd broke down, and now, my "new" laptop doesn't seem to know that I have wireless.
The only way I can connect through the internet is by using ethernet and connecting the laptop with my dsl modem.

When I physically move the mouse the light on the receiver blinks but the mouse does not move on the screen. I tried plugging the mouse into another system I have running xp and have zero problems. When I open device manager and look under universal serial bus controllers, the standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller says it does not have enough free resources.

In my Device Manager the only thing that has a little yellow triangle is a 'Non Plug Non Play' item called npkcrypt.

One computer upstairs with modium and router right next to computer getting full bars and great signal. My computer, downstairs aprx 8 mtrs away, brick house getting only 3 bars. When the upstairs computer is turned on I get no bars hence no signal. If i turn upstairs computer off I than get signal. The range says indoors up to 46mtrs, 100 mtrs outdoors. Why would having the upstairs computer on effect my signal downstairs? Do I need a better router of better modium. What can I do?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've recently installed Vista Business on a new Dell PC. I've had problems installing the wireless adapter but in the end, Vista itself installed drivers for it though now the utility provided with the adapter doesn't work at all. The connection works fine until you try and download large files/use more bandwidth. For example; using a download manager like Flashget to download several files. From then it dwindles straight to 0kbps and then the whole connection dies, disconnects and the router is no longer available, according to Vista and yet the router is running fine with other computers on the network going strong. I've tried installing, updating, reinstalling drivers, altering the power settings and other internet settings to no avail.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been having this issue ever since I bought my new tablet pc. I am connected wirelessly to a network here at work. I've never had an issue with any other computer before until this one. I'm using a Vista 64 ultimate and this is my issue. I connect to the wireless network... I can browse the internet just fine. I have a shortcut on my desktop \192.168.1.200location Once I click on that it ask me for my user id and password so I enter and I then get to the network folder. After a few seconds it says Not Responding and I can no longer connect to the network or the internet although I can ping all internet addresses just fine. Disconnecting from the wireless and reconneting does not work... Disabling and reenabling doesn't work either. I have to shut down the pc and restart for it to come back up.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI had a network setup running well, consisting of 3 computers with each one running XP. I replaced my "main" desktop with a new Acer 5100 unit running Vista Premium. It is the only one connected to the router/DSL modem (Westell 327w). Even after reading all the previous posts and responses, I can't get this darned Vista box to see the two XP's that are also on the same network. Only the Windows firewalls (with sharing excepted) are turned on, same workgroup, passwords' use turned off. REGARDLESS OF SHARING SETTINGS, DRIVE PROPERTIES SHOW THAT THE DRIVES are "NOT SHARED." The two XP units show each other but not the Vista box. Vista shows only Vista. 'Bout ready to strip Vista off and reload XP

I have a vista Home laptop and an xp home desktop. Router is a speedtouch 780 supplied by O2. If i connect Vista lap to router by ethernet i have no problems. However when I connect with wireless, I can see the xp desktop an the
shared directories, but when I try to open them the system hangs and says the folder name is not valid.
I am also running a Xampp server on the XP and can access the localhost webpage when connected by ethernet but not wireless. I have done all the usual stuff, same workgroup, same name and password, turned firewall off on both and router, set static ip's, changed everyone permission settings on Vista.

I just bought Toshiba notebook a month or so ago with Vista Premium sp1. A day ago when I turned on notebook, I had a notice to the effect: Windows Wireless Lan 802.11 Extensibility Framework has stopped working.
-> Check for a solution later (recommended) next time you start system
-> Close
Those were only two choices. I believe I clicked the first one "Check for a
solution later." When I turned on notebook tonight, I got the same message. Does anyone know what could be wrong with this new notebook? I am using the wireless to get into IE7 and type this message. My husband and I are senior citizens and not too familiar with computers or computer language so if someone has an answer, please make it simple enough for us to understand. We hope this new notebook isn't broken already. We can't afford to buy another computer or have this one repaired.
all of a sudden my wireless connection stopped working, so i did a system restore and it started working again, then it made the updates, and it stopped working again, the system restore worked twice and then after the updates, not working again, this time more permanent, when the computer starts it tells me that the bluetooth is on, but no existence of the wlan, the driver doesn't even show up on the device manager.
Then after some time my computer became stuck it didn't respond (this due to a different issue) so I decided to force the computer to turn off, when it restarted i had a wireless conection, then I turned off the computer and when I turned it back on no internet again, then I decided to try the force turn off again, and again I had internet. also if i have the internet working and i close my computer the internet stops working as well
Whenever my wireless stopped working I would shut my computer down. I'd do a primary hard drive test. It would fix my wireless almost guaranteed. I tried it earlier today and it didn't work. Now I got this screen telling me I need the Vista CD to resolve a problem with one of the drivers. I don't have the Vista CD. My laptop came with the program not the CD. I checked with my manufacture website and I even downloaded an HP Support Assistant. It says everything is up to date.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am running Vista Home Premium on my laptop. I have a Brother wifi printer (although it connects to the router with a wire). I have 2 desktops and my laptop that use the printer. The two desktops use the printer without a problem. My laptop only works during the period after I add the network printer. When I reboot, it will seem to print to the printer but it just gets stored in the printer queue and won't print it.
Telling the print queue to try again doesn't do anything. If I delete the printer from my laptop and add it again as a new printer, it works great until the next reboot. I have no other printers in my printer list, only the Brother. None of the desktops (one Vista Home Premium, one XP) have this problem.

i've spent the whole day trying to set up a wireless connection between a laptop running vista and a printer connected to a print server on a wireless router....The printer is connected to the USB port on the wireless router (and the wireless connection to the printer works fine with my old xp laptop :rolleyes. The printer worked fine when plugged directly into the usb port on the vista laptop. So I set up a TCP/IP local port with the router's IP address (network print server, 1 printer) and assigned the printer to that port. It worked! - once. It printed a short document from notepad but sometime in the next few hours its status went to 'offline' and it has since refused to print anything else. Print jobs appear to spool to the printer, come up in the print monitor window, etc, but it doesn't print - neither tiny things from notepad nor multipage word docs.
SO far I have tried: rebooting everything lots of times; setting the printer to 'use printer online' in the admin prefs; disabling bidirectional support; disabling spooling (i.e. printing direct to printer - this just makes MS Word hang); making a persistent mapping of LPT1 to the printer w net use (a bit out of my depth there so hope I haven't stuffed anything up, i just got a bunch of system error 66's).
i just brought a new intel pc, the S-Series. with no operating system, atm has a trail of wondows vista, (im getting a real copie very soon) anyhoo, when i use the Ethernet Cable directly from my pc into the modem works fine. BUT when im not using it and using wireless and trying to search for any wireless rounters around, i cannot find none, i got a wireless card i think its: Realtek RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P) Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.0), the 2008 version, theres a 2009 version (update), but every site i go to download they try and rip you off in buying membership and download it! so round it down cant find any routers when using wireless, cant find any FREE non riped off updates for my wireless card.. pheraps its not the card, and somthing else, and no no FIREWALL is blocking it.
