Router,and Netgear WG111 Wireless Adapter Not Working
Aug 31, 2008
Have Netgear WGR614 v7 router,and Netgear WG111 wireless adapter. My PC is Vista 32bit, and my wifes's new one is Vista 64bit. Mine is direct and connection fine. My wife's PC connects but the connection is not steady and at times intermittent. I suspect I have purchase wrong hardware. The router was supplied by Time Warner, and their techs set it up. The have been back six times, and do not know what the answer is.
I have had this router for some time - worked fine with Xp64 - now I've upgraded to Vista 64 Home, it will occasionally lock up. By that I mean that I can sometimes still see my local network, but I lose internect connectivity. I seems to be at random. But the impression I get is that it is something on the wireless network that is causing it as it seems to be worse if I connect my works laptop to the internet via a wireless VPN connection.
I also have a WB NAS drive connected (Soon to be ditched due to problems with it corrupting files and being extremely slow to extract data) and a Wii (Wireless). Or can any recommend a ADSL wireless router that works well with Vista? (I have to run the PC and NAS drive with static IP addresses due to the time it takes for the network to connect if I use DHCP)
how to get my Presario 700 Laptop connected to Wireless via my Netgear router. I recently had help from a NETGEAR agent that got me on. I thought I could remember how to get back on, but obviously I am forgetting something.
i have a netgear wireless router, one desktop pc connected to it with a Ethernet cable (still working fine) and a hp laptop running vista connected thought wireless everything was working fine until one day the wireless on the laptop just stopped working and gave the message connected with limited access i have disconnected from the network and tried to reconnect however all i get is connection unsuccessful then i go to diagnose the problem and have been given some suggestions by windows help i have checked my driver and they are all up to date i have also checked that both ipv4 and ipv6 protocols are ticked in the config for wireless networking, my adapter says working fine and i have checked that my WEP keys are still the same.
I'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.
I have the most basic of basic Netgear wireless routers (WGR614), yet I still can't set this dang thing up! I am trying to set up two computers that are literally side by side. I go through the set up, it acknowledges the internet connection, then it asks for the login/password for my connection. I don't have one via my provider ("Qwest) as I simply ran through their install disk and it's ready to roll, no sign in, etc.
I've read quite a bit about this, so I thought maybe it wasn't directed at my providers sign in, and instaed used the general sign in 'admin' and 'password' that work on virtually all Netgear units. No go. I also tried the login of '1234', which is used for older routers (which this is not), but that didn't work either. I am obviously using wires, as there is no need to go wireless. What am I doing wrong? All my wiring is correct.
I have forgotten the Username and Password for the Login ID... and it is not the default (Username: *blank* Password: admin). I have heard you can hold the reset button on the back of the wireless router but will this reset my wireless network? By that i mean... will i be able to connect with my laptop still through that wireless network or will i have to set it up again?
my netgear router dg834g will not portforward, i am new too this so its probably an easy mistake where i am going wrong.
ive tried following the insructions by finding my router on portforward.com and going through those steps, and it didnt seem too work so i started too look for more detailed guides on the internet.
i came across this Internet video Internet - port forwarding on the dg834g and did everything it said once id completed the steps i went too canyouseeme.org too test my port and it was closed.
error: i could not see your service on xx.x.xx.xx on port (43594)
reason: connection timed out that is what canyouseeme.org told me.
id also like too add i think my problem may lie with my laptop not being directly connected too the router, would this change any steps in the Internet video above?
I recently bought an hp laptop with windows vista and the wireless netgear router 614 v8. However the connection is always dropping, and usually won't connect after coming out of sleep, it can't be a problem with the router because there are other computers not vista that have no connection problems. Do i need to change any setting on my comp? restarting the router does nothing
i have a sony Vaio VGN-Z12GN running windows vista. i turned the computer on today and the wireless is not working at all. i chk the network adaptors and both:
Microsoft ISATAP adapter 4
and
6T04 Adapter
have faults next to them. When i update them it states that they are already up to date. Also when i turn the wireless button on then off and the box appears on the screen showing: Vaio Smart Network, it shows - bluetooth, LAN and Modem ONLY. Even wireless has disappeared from here.
I recently got a sony vaio laptop installed vista and my wireless router will not work. I had no problems using it when I had my previous laptop, a HP with windows XP. When i try to connect to the router I am trying to install I get a message saying the computer cannot find any connection and to try again, I can assure I have done all the steps correctly. I also tried to connect to other wireless connections in my area as a test because i can't i get a message saying cannot connect. (and I have checked that the WLAN is on everytime).
Brand new VISTA Home Basic on Dell laptop of friend. Opened box, smelled the new computer, smiled, connected to wireless router in office, and subject line says the rest.
I have a issue with my Linksys wireless USB adapter. I am trying to use it with Vista Home Premium. After installing software... I plug the adapter in (like directions say) and windows update goes to work. It updates the driver, installs correctly, I then connect to my home network and all is good. My prob is for some reason I lose internet and the USB adapter itself. One time I switched users and lost all. I have tried uninstalling adapter and tried reinstalling by pointing to my D drive (install CD) in hopes of using the driver that's on the installation CD. as soon as it saw everything.. windows update once again gave me the same buggy driver. I have tried to install with UAC disabled... no luck... the Linksys website/support for drivers has the same updated driver. I tried to use an older one but Windows keeps forcing this updated one down my throat.
My hub PC is an HP quad core pc. In my living rm sits the HP IQ506 all-in-one touchsmart. Last is another HP, laptop. I have a Linkseys ultra wireless router. I had problems w/ the software, so now the two computers are back to a wired con. I have tried and tried to connect the computers so I can access my hub pc from the other two.
So I have my desktop hooked up to the WN121T, which is a USB wireless adapter, and my relationship with the thing is love/hate. Sometimes it's fine. But a lot of the time, it just cannot find my network, despite the fact that other computers can get on the network. And I doubt it's a range thing, since when my desktop is online, the signal is pretty good. I have the latest drivers installed, and my router is a Netgear WNR834B.
I have Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit and a NetGear WG311v3 wireless card installed into a PCI slot.
Whenever I start up Windows and browse the Internet, the connection seems just fine.
However, after an undetermined amount of time (or perhaps triggered by a certain amount of data I've downloaded), the connection cuts off. I then look in Device Manager and see the yellow warning symbol next to my wireless driver. When I look further, it says "This device cannot start (code 10)". Nothing I do seems to work, except restarting my computer. ANd when I do, I have to manually connect to the wireless network again.
There is no password on the router, and all the other desktops and laptops in the house connect to the router just fine without any connection problems after any amount of time or data.
I have tried re-installing the drivers (even by uninstalling, shutting down, removing hardware, booting up, installing drivers, shutting down, re-inserting hardware, booting up) but it still does the same thing.
There may be a conflict somewhere with other hardware, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what it may be. I have even tried installing the Marvell chipset driver instead of the NetGear driver, but it still does the same time-out problem.
I can stay connected for hours if I don't do any heavy downloading (just surfing and reading), but once I start downloading large files, the connection drops and I have to reboot again, which is a huge pain because the files I download can be quite large and I have to start from the beginning after I reboot.
I recenctly bought a new machine that has Vista Basic installed on it. I installed the latest drivers for my Netgear wireless adapter which are supposed to be Vista compatible. However, although I can get connected, I often have to mess around with the networking settings first and then the connection will only last around 15 minutes before the adapters led stops flashing. I then have to reboot to get a connection again. I tried the adapter back n my old XP machine and it is fine. As soon as the XP machine boots, the led indicator starts flashing and it doesn't stop until you shut down. With the Vista machine, the adapter often doesn't start flashing until you actually connect and then it will just stop after a short while. I've been messing around with this for weeks now and got nowhere. I would have suspected the adapter drivers, but it seems as though there are a lot of other people with the same problem on different adapters.
I have a WG111v2 which I bought just to be able to use Vista x64. It doesn't work well with games though, so I need an adapter with no dropouts and x64 support. Would be nice with some recommendations.
I have a compaq presario desktop that I am trying to connect to a dlink wireless system. I have tried trendnet, linksys, and now Dlink usb wireless adapters but none will connect. They show up in the device manager as fine and dandy but will not enable. I am now trying the dlink WUA 1340 and downloaded the drivers from the dlink website.
I have also did a netsh wlan show settings and it says the autoconfig is disabled. Not sure if it should be enabled and have yet to find out how to enable it on this desktop. I have already tried the to do set autoconfig enabled=yes interface="?" as per technet instructions but just says wlansvc is not running. I am very frustrated and have had to drag the dlink router and dsl to telus to my computer so I can hook up by ethernet.
I have ran the gammut on this as I have even went through all the usb plugs and all are working and detect the wireless device. I have removed everything a few times and reinstalled without the dlink software etc. etc. etc.
I went to a wired connection instead of wireless, and then decided to go back to wired. Since my wireless connection is through a linksys WUSB600N and it has known problems with skipping when playing games like World of Warcraft I turned off WLAN and had disabled my wireless adapter, then installed another program to run the connection (Which I had done previously though the last time I didn't turn off WLAN or disable my adapter). Then I went to enable the adapater and it wouldn't enable. I also turned back on WLAN and restarted. It still won't work. At this point nothing I do will enable my wireless adapater. It shows it is enabling but then it just keeps saying disabled. The light on the WUSB600N doesn't even turn on when I plug it in now, and it just worked less then 24 hours ago.
I am new to Vista and my o/s is telling me I have Vista Home Premium (64 bit Operating System).
My PC is a Packard Bell iPower X9810. Motherboard is MS-7380
I wanted to insert a wireless PCI adapter into one of the vacant slots in my machine.
I purchased an Edimax wireless 802.11n 32 bit PCI adapter (model = EW-7728in).
I thought, after reading countless reviews this was going to be easy
So I popped it in and switched my machine back on (holding my breath). I saw the initial Packard Bell splash screen then was presented with a black empty screen with a flashing cursor in the top left hand corner
At this point I was rather concerned because I could hear my machine making a whiring noise (it didn't sound good).
After administering some smelling salts I proceeded to re-start crossing my fingers and it happened again. On the 3rd attempt I eventually got a sort of recovery screen that gave me one of two options 1) attempt a repair or 2) continue trying to load windows. I selected the first option and again held my breath.
After roughly 10 mins it had performed a system restore and I had turned back the clock to a previously known good state.
For the life of me I cannot understand why this happened. The manual that came with the card said to pop the adapter in the slot > boot up > run CD-ROM and hey presto but that did not happen.
When I looked at the mobo inside the machine the 2 PCI slots are ever so slightly offset and don't align tru with the covers you ping off the back of the tower. However, I must advise that the adapter went in without much of a struggle but must of " slightly " been on the wonk as I have already said the slots are not 100% in line with were the aerials stick out the back.
I'm scared to death now of breaking my machine and don't know what to do? The Edimax website says this is compatible with my 64 bit Vista so what gives?
So I turned my laptop on today and for some reason it would not connect to the internet. I thought it might be the router so I rebooted that and still no luck. When troubleshooting it says; "This computer does not have a wireless network adapter installed and configured" So immediately I think the driver or my adapter has been uninstalled. If your wondering what my adapter was its; Nvidia nForce Networking Controller (x64 Windows Ultimate) I went on there website and found the driver, installed it and still nothing. I also found another program that was installed; Broadcom 802.11 Uninstaller I really need this fixed ,
1. My network has ALWAYS failed upon RESUME FROM SLEEP using a WIRELESS connection via a NETGEAR WN121T wireless-N USB 2.0 adapter, but NOT when using a wired Ethernet connection.
2. It also works perfectly from BOOT via the WN121T wireless connection with my NETGEAR DG834N draft 802.11n (and another 802.11g) wireless modem/router on Windows Vista Ultimate, both with and without the SP1 Release Candidate.
3. But upon resumption from SLEEP, the wireless n/w connection has ALWAYS failed: attempting to re-connect to the network fails, and Device Manager reports for the WN121T that ???Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems (code 43)???.
I think it was after the updates loaded for windows incl. sp1 or after the vista patch for the game witcher which came from the microsoft site. Problem is that my optical drives dissappeared and the wireless adapter seemed to become D drive. Device manager says drivers missing but windows says has latest drivers. Have disk for both LG drives but computer cant see drive to be able to run.
It works fine except when I have tried to install my Belkin USB wireless adapter. I went to Belkins site and it told me to download the Ralink drivers, which I did. Nothing. Vista tells me that the device is working properly, but the light on the adapter is not lighting up, and Windows does not pick up any networks at all. I tried the PC with a second, identical adapter to see if it was the device causing the problem, but I have gotten the same response, which lead me to think it was an issue with Vista.
Got a new laptop and trying to get it wireless with a belkin router, when i go to network and sharing i can see the wireless icon there but it is not conneted. how do i do this? Tried everything and i am about to crack up. Friend reckons you must be conected with wires on one computer before you can connect wireless for other computers (laptops). I only got one laptop which i want wireless is this ok.
I have a Belkin wireless-N router. I have 3 computers hardwired, and 3 computers that are wireless with a passphase. My new Vista computer is finding my network, but when I ask to connect I receive an "Enter Credetials" window asking for a User name, Password, and Logon Domain. Never saw this with XP. What do I need to enter, or what do I need to do to bypass this window?!
I am considering upgrading to a new wireless router soon. I just want to know what would be the best router to buy... I obviously want as much transfer rate as I can get for the price.
I just was wondering what is a "proxy"? Im using wireless router can I use a proxy? Why do people use proxy? Can there be consequences with using it? Were can I find a proxy?
here is the setup, I have a Laptop with a wired 10/100/100 jack and a wireless card built in A/B/G. I have a wireless router at home that does B/G, I connect to it at G. The wireless router also has 5 10/100 ports on the back. From the wireless router I go into a cable modem, pretty standard setup so far, here is where gets fun. I have the option of "bundling" my download speeds and upload speeds with the installation of a 2nd cable modem. What I am unsure opf is how exactle this setup would work. Going to attach a pic and see what you all have in the way of advice: Basically, the 2 connections from the cable modems are 15down and 2up each, my cable company will allow me to combine the connections (they will set it up on their end) so I have 30down 4up, what I dont know is how top do it on MY end. I am attaching a word doc with a drawing to explain better. I am running Vista64 Ultimate w/sp1
