I have a Sony Vaio with windows 7 OS (64bit), I have installed and ran several differnet antivirus and malware programs and found nothing. I ran a full virus Scan (Kasperksy anti-virus 2012) and no issues found, I tried to do a System Restore to earlier date (it failed), I can see that i have an issue with the WAN Miniport IKEv2 (It will not deinstall...to try and reinstall...it just errors), I get "Diagnostic Policy Service not running" every time i try to trouble shoot. I have even performed a system scan, (cmd.exe....cfs/scannow) and it found nothing. I even bought a new USB wirelss adapter to try and get online and it doesnt work. I have tried to log on to the internet at work through our network as well as at home through my home netowork (two different providers) and nothing works
What are my options for connecting a laptop wirelessly to a workstation that is connected to a wired LAN and has no router?Essentially, I want to add wireless connectivity to the workstation so that the laptop can connect to the wired LAN via the workstation.
My girlfriends parents have bought a new compaq laptop with windows 7. Connected up to the internet by cable & wireless no problem. Yesterday couldn't do either and found it nearly impossible to get into the routers settings to check them. Kept saying limited access. I've tried various things to no avail. Then I noticed that my iphone could connect to the router, so I ruled out a router problem. I brought the laptop home and it wouldn't connect to our router, so I'm presuming it's a settings problem. But now I'm stuck!
So I have laptop and I have wired internet.Yesterday its just stoped working
-IPv4 connecitivty No internet access -IPv6 connectivity No network access
When Im trying to detecting problems Troubleshooting couldnt identify the problem.Now It says Your computer appears to be correctly configured ,but the device or resoucre (www.miscrosoft.com) is not responding.when i type ipconfig/all its say Windows Ip configuration.
i'm having trouble getting onto the internet with my wired settings on my desktop. I usually have it connected through wireless (I have a pci-e wireless card), but when i try with my ethernet cable, it doesnt connect. I have two OS's installed on this computer windows 7 and vista. I have tried to on both windows to get on the net, but to no avail. I have tried the diagnose and repair, but it doesnt fix anything. It does however, says "Windows cannot connect to the primary DNS Server" or something like that.
Just did a clean windows 7 x64 installation on a build a box computer with a new hard drive. Install went fine. Plugged it in to my 3 month old Linksys Wireless G Broadband Router (WRT54GL) and it doesn't recognize that there is any connection at all. Windows says "No connections are available" and troubleshooting can't identify the problem. The light on the router and on the computer comes on. I am running a wired connected XP computer and 2 Win 7 x32 wireless connected computers just fine. Ran ipconfig /all and it came up as follows:
Host Name.................... : Bottomdweller-PC Primary DNS suffix.......... : Node Type ....................: Hybrid
[Code]....
All wires are connected. I've tried booting in Safe mode with networking. I've even connected the computer directly to the cablevision modem. I've installed a USB Linksys wireless adapter and although it installs fine, it doesn't see the router at all. I've also tried reinstalling the router directly on this computer but it doesn't see the router at all.
I've tried setting up a new connection or network, Connecting to a network and choosing a homegroup and sharing option but since you need a network to connect to first I couldn't do it.
I disconnected my wired internet on my pc by right clicking on the internet icon down on the right toolbar and therefrom i disconnected. Right now I can't connect it back. I've tried unplugg and plugg it in (not working) and restarting the pc (again, not working).
I am currently at a hotel and am using their wired internet connection. Everything has been working fine until this weekend when I find that the connection keeps dropping out...specifically:
1) Unable to connect when I plug the network cable into computer on startup...have to plug and remove a couple of times till it connects.
2) Connection drops out every 5-10 minutes or so....have to either unplug and replug cable or enable/disable my network adapter on my laptop a couple of times for it to start up again.
3) The connection problem affects random programs but always internet explorer. I can be on yahoo messenger and msn messenger and even an online game and they won't be affected when the connection drops and internet explorer goes out. However, if I log off any of these programs, then I will have a problem getting back on until I repeat the connection methods listed above. Additionally, some IE pages will continue to function for a while if I click the links in them...just cannot access any new pages...
4) sometimes the connection will drop out but it will show that I am still connected in my taskbar at the bottom of my screen.
Everything else on the computer seems to be working fine, wireless also seems to be working too.
my buddy has a laptop issue when its a wired internet connection. when its wireless, it has no problems with the internet, everything works fine. but when its wired, webpages will still load, but Internet videos wont work, anything that consists of streaming doesn't work, and he cant even use logmein. i have connected other laptops to the same cord and there is no problems. so i know its not the cord and i imagine its not the router since everything still works fine with other computers.
I can connect to wi-fi, but not to other the internet. A wired connection will not connect to the internet either. Other devices (ipad, laptop, directv box, etc... all connect fine. Using the network map I can see the other devices on my network from this pc. If I run in safe mode with networking I can connect to the internet.
Windows firewall is disabled, using McAfee firewall. I momentarily disabled all firewalls and still unable to connect to the internet. I have scanned the computer (in safe mode) with McAfee, Malware Malybytes, & the MS Windows malicous software scanner. All clean. I was thinking virus or malware, but have done everything I can think of.
My Dell Dimension C521 died on me maybe 6 months ago. It has Windows XP on it.
I put it to the side and bought a HP Pavilion G7 laptop to replace it with, which came with Windows 7 Home Premium. From what I remember I just plugged my ethernet cable into it at the time, and I was able to use my Virgin Media connection straight away, didn't have any problems.
So last week I finally repaired the old Dell and I've been using it for about a week now, while the new laptop sat unused in the other room. Now, today when I try to use the laptop again to connect to the internet, it doesn't want to play ball; troubleshooting the connection comes up with 'The default gateway is not available'.
I didn't change anything or do anything, I just didn't use it for a week and now it won't connect to the internet. The only difference I can see is one machine is XP and one is Windows 7...
I used the Windows 7 recovery disc to reinstall the OS hoping that would fix it (after a few system restores failed to address it), but no luck. When I ping my default gateway as it's shown in ipconfig, it comes back 'Request timed out' 3 times, then 'Destination host unreachable'.
"Tunnel adaptor 6T04 Adaptor: cable.virginmedia.net" doesn't have a Default Gateway listed, is this somehow relevant?
i'm having an issue where my internet connection will seemingly drop for a split second, and then reconnect.for example, i will be signed into irc and will have a momentary drop in connection which boots me out, and then i will instantly reconnect.another example would be when watching a streamed video (Internet). i will be watching a video and then the buffering would stop, until i manually navigated to a couple of seconds later, and then buffering would continue.a final example would be in skype, where people are constantly getting connect/disconnect notifications from me.i've had a go at pinging google (-t) to see if it sheds any light on the frequency of disconnection. it has an average ping of about 35 ms, and will occasionally spike to roughly 130-150 every 7 lines or so. but other than that it has no difficulty pinging at all.
My PC connects to the internet (wired) perfectly, but my TOSHIBA laptop does not. The router does not show the correct lights when plugged into the laptop, so I have tried resetting the router (with no success). When I plug the ethernet cable into the laptop, nothing happens at all.
I have all of my computers (4 of them) hard wired into the router. Then the other day my step-daughter needed to print something out from her computer that had a program on it that mine did not have and my computer is the only one with a printer (the kids 10 and she'll print out anything). So I created a home network so I could enable printer sharing and then the problems started.Now the internet on my machine and my machine only keeps losing my internet connection only when I wake up this machine from sleep mode (I guess it is going into to sleep mode) It is fine when I first turn it on in the morning (because of this problem I can longer just keep it on all the time - I have to shut it down at night). Anyway, if I walk away from my machine for a period of time, when I come back and wake it up it loses the internet connection and then everything is slow. So I have to shut it down and then when I restart it - everything is fine!
The wireless is one I share with my roommates and is fast. The wired NIC connects to a router which has slower internet. The reason I connect to the wired router is so my PC can talk to a linux machine, which I use for some data downloading/analysis.I want to disable internet from the wired connection but keep the ability to talk to other machines on the wired network. I just changed the IPv4 settings and deleted the DNS server information. Is this the best way to do so? I want the wireless to provide internet.
I formatted both my laptop and desktop computer. When i did with my laptop, everything was great. Wireless still worked. Of course i have my linksys router connected to get the wireless.
I then formatted my desktop. Its a dell. When i did this, everything seemed great. However, i noticed that if i remove my wireless router and just connect my cable modem wired, it works. However, when i connect my wireless router, then my wireless internet works but my WIRED connection does not work. It has this message that says can't connect.
I don't think this has ever happened before. I mean, there were many times where my desktop got formatted and my wired internet worked and i could not get my wireless connection to work. But never had i had my wireless work and my wired connection not work. The one thing i did this time was after i installed the drivers with my windows cd, i then deleted the old windows file that was about 25 gb.
I've got an older Acer Timeline 4810t running Windows 7. We recently switched from Cox Cable internet to AT&T U-Verse, and I've started noticing that my internet connection will randomly go out when I am connected. This occurs whether I am on a wired or wireless connection. Specifically, I will be browsing the web and, randomly, when I try to pull up a website, I get an error indicating that I cannot connect to that website because I am not connected to the internet. When I check the status of my connection in the bottom right corner, it will show that I am connected to the internet. If I disconnect the ethernet cable (or disconnect and reconnect to the wifi network), the internet service is restored, although it continues to randomly lose connection.
I initially thought that it was a U-Verse issue, so AT&T came out and replaced the router. Unfortunately, I still got the random drops. I then thought it was a Windows issue, so I reformatted by hard drive and reinstalled Windows - still having that issue.My wife has an older Macbook and does not have this problem. We also do not have this problem with any of the tablets or phones that connect to the network wirelessly.I am beyond frustrated and do not know what to do. I also don't know if this is a sign that my laptop is at the end of its life, which would be unfortunate since I've only owned the laptop for about 3 years (my last laptop, a Dell, is on year 7 and still churning).
I just bought a used Acer Aspire One 10.1 netbook and I am having some issues. When I got it the pc needed 17 windows updates done. So I did that but I am not sure all the updates worked properly as the machine shut down but never rebooted after finishing updates. After I turned it back on I tried to connect to the internet through my wireless router (which is working fine for other devices), nothing. So I tried a wired connection, nothing again. The wireless is finding my router it is just not hooking up to the internet. I tried ipconfig/all in the cmd prompt and all it shows is that the media is disconnected??? Does anyone have any ideas as to what is going on? The compute seems to be functioning fine except for the internet
For some reason my router and modem will not show correctly on my dell inspirion one desktop. Im running windows 7 and here are the net work connection deatils
Connection -specific DNS Belkin Description Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller Physical Address 00-00-00-00-00-00 DCHP Enabled Yes Ipv4 Address 192.168.2.2 Ipv4 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 Lease obtained Wednesday, November 10, 2010 9:45 PM Lease Expires Sunday, December 18, 2146 4:17 AM IPv4 Default Gateway 192.168.2.1 Ipv4 DHCP Server 192.168.2.1 Ipv4 DNS Server 192.168.2.1 IPv4 WINS Server NetBIOS over Tcpip enabled Yes
The Connection was working about ten days ago and then suddenly stopped and read as an unidentified network no internet access. at one point is was not receiving packets but now it is but it still says no internet access on the IPv4 Connectivity. Media state is also enabled and the speed is 100.0 Mbps when i troubleshoot it says windows cant identify problem but in the details it says default gateway is available. when i use the cmd prompt ipconfig/all my local ethernet adapter has a physical address of all zeros.
I have a Netgear Wireless Router WGR614-6VGUKS and a Netgear ADSL modem Router DG834 v4. Is it possible to connect to the Net wirelessly using these 2 and if so how? I have tried but with no success but not sure about order and connections. Looked on the Net but found info there confusing and not really answering my questions.
I recently finished building my new PC (happy to provide specs if needed) and I also bought a new panasonic gt30 HDTV. I trying to find a way to show my PC screen on the TV without having to use DVI cables just doing it wirelessly, I linked the TV to my network no problems as it has a wireless dongle included, this allows we to access the viera live crap.I was advised when buying my TV that if I have a PC with windows 7 and a second gen i7 2600k that I can just directly show my PC screen however I have no idea how to do this just wondering if anyone has done this before and any advice or guide they could provide. Basically I don't just want viera connect, I want the full PC access like you get when directly plugged in.
I used to run media centre wired and it worked fine. Trying to clean up cables running all over the place Ive tried wirelessly yet its almost to the point that it doesnt work at all as its incredibly slow and takes about a minute to react to controller input.Im running a TP-LINKTD-W8930N 300Mbps router.
My computer is part of a domain and I was at home wondering about how to transfer files from mac to pc wirelessly. I came across a turorial that told me to change some settings in System about a workgroup. It required me to restart and when my login screen came up it had a new username and a new password with "2011" as password hint. I cannot login to my computer anymore and i really need it
Been tackling this problem for over a year now, with a few installs of Windows 7 that ended up making me go back to XP. Well now I have a dual boot with XP SP3 and Win 7 HP x64. The problem is that I can't connect to the internet while using a wireless adapter on Win 7, the wired connection works with Win 7 though, and the wireless USB adapter (Zonet ZEW2546) works on XP. The only pair that doesn't work are the zonet and Win 7. I've tried just about solution I could find, to no avail. I have an EVGA P55v SLI mobo - which I've heard isn't great with wireless, but if it works with XP it should be possible with 7 too. Win 7 is a fresh install so the problem is not antivirus or another program. here is a copy of ipconfig /all (The Realtek wireless LAN utility is the USB adapter, and I am connected by wire.)

My Nephew has a very long house and a computer cannot get a signal from the wireless router which is at the other end of the house. He doesn't want to run RJ45 cables. Could he use 2 routers so the second one connects wireless to the first one which is connected to his adsl phone socket by a ethernet cable. If so how would I go about setting them up, settings wise. If so would the computer also be able to talk to each other to be able to transfer files etc to each other.. (enable workgroup & sharing drives/folders) I know how to setup this bit.
Well, I have a Satellite I355D-S7825. I checked under Device Manager and I only see the local ethernet connection I'm using, and it won't wirelessly connect anymore...I'm not sure what to do, or what driver to update or how.
I installed my dell v305w on my new laptop successfully and was happily using it until recently. It was suddenly offline. I tried updating the drivers to no avail. So after several attempts, I removed the printer and drivers and downloaded and installed them again. I then went to start -> all programs -> dell printers -> v305 -> dell wireless setup utility and ran the utility. The wireless network was added successfully, and the wifi light on the printer was blue. Success... However, despite the signal strength on both laptop and printer being consistently good, when I attempt to print wirelessly, the laptop lists the printer as "offline". VERY FRUSTRATING! I have been trying to sort this out for 2 days! I have rebooted both printer and laptop, and that didn't work either..I can use the printer wired, but I bought it specifically because it was wireless.
I have a Sony Vaio laptop, E-Series VPCEA24FM, running Windows 7, and I have trouble getting it to print wirelessly.I first tried it with a Lexmark Pro900 Inkjet printer, but when I sent a file, it would sit in the queue indefinitely, even though the print monitor indicates that the printer is 'Ready.'I thought it was a printer problem, so I got a new Brother HL-2270DW Laserprinter. The same problem would occur, it wouldn't print. In both cases, reinstalling the printer allows it to print once, but if the device goes into standby, I can never print to it again from the Sony Vaio. I have two other laptops, running Windows Vista and Windows 7 respectively, and both can print to both printers just fine.
I'm having to write this because my old bridged network worked so well for so long that I totally forgot how I ever set it up in the first place, but I recall that it was simple and involved:
- The two were connected via wifi - the primary one having a physical connection to roadrunner modem - The two had the same SSID, same Security method and passkey, different base IP addresses [192.168.1.1, and 192.168.1.21] - beyond that it gets hazy... what "mode" was the secondary in? somewhere I input to the subordinate router the MAC address of the primary router... dunno where/which field accepted that - do both need to be set to a fixed & same channel, as opposed to variable/Auto? - what all was turned off on the secondary? - both had full use of both their wired connections/clients and wifi - one of these is N-300mbps, and g/b, the other is g/b. do I need to limit anything?
Its not necessarily important to me that the connected devices all share with one another - I have strange clients anyway and its not needed. the windows 7 devices will be ok on the homegroup.
I wanted to know if I do new builds can important motherboard and Windows drivers be installed wirelessly or do you have to be hard wired? Will wireless downloading of drivers cause any problems?
