Network Connection Is Faster More Stable On XP Than On 7

Aug 26, 2011

I've recently moved into Windows 7 Service Pack 1.First thing (and foremost, right now) I've noticed is how unstable and slow my Internet Connection is; Windows 7 reports my Wi-Fi router's signal strength as "Average/Good", whereas in XP it's always "Excellent". I can't browse at all, or log into Windows Update to get fixes; the connection drops erratically.What offline tweaking can I do to fix this situation? I use a REALTEK RTL8185 54M Wireless LAN Network Adapter to connect to a D-LINK WBR-1310 Wi-Fi router.

Dual Lan - Forcing File Sharing To Use Faster Connection

Nov 18, 2009

I have 2 pcs on a LAN with a 100mbps switch, and they are also directly connected via Gigabit crossover. When both ran XP, I could uncheck "File and Printer Sharing" on each 100mbps connection, and they used only the direct crossover at 1gbps.

Now, with Windows 7 on one and XP on the other, copying files uses the switch by default, even with "File and Printer Sharing" unchecked. This is ridiculous. It should be able to see that there's a wide open connection that's ten times faster sitting completely idle. I even think that the "Local Area Network 2", not the primary.

Any ideas?

Packets And Bytes Sent And Received / N-work Connection / Why Did Network Randomly Change To "network 3"

Oct 26, 2011

(the bytes sent and received). It seems skype calls and watching in browser videos shoot them up into the billions after a few hours +. Upon googling around i am quite alarmed. Why did my network randomly change to "network 3"? A few weeks ago it just said 'network'?

Internet Is Not Stable?

Jul 6, 2012

So here's my problem, my internet speed is fine , but the connection just drops at random times ,sometimes every hour , same time, my internet goes down and i have to turn my router back off and on again to make it work. Sometimes it doesn;t even work , i get the yellow sign on my wifi icon, on my toolbar , and i have to leave it on for like a hour before it works again.

I know there's nothing wrong with my wifi router and the modem, because its been working fine ,I think its something to do with the connection lines from my house to the isp. And also when i run a troubleshoot on my wifi , i always get the "the connection between your access point and the internet is broken" So i have to restart my modem and my wifi router. I have to do this about 20 times everyday at least. Sometimes it can work for an hour or even longer without any problems, so it can;t by my modem or my wifi.

Here is a picture of the Diagnostics Test i ran on my modem:I think the fail's are the ones that is causing my internet to behave like this.Im running windows 7. 64 bit. Im using a wifi connection. My setup is the modem being connected to the wifi router , which i then connect from. Also i've called my isp company, they said they would come tomorrow , if they do come , what should i tell the problem is? So they can fix it?

Unable to use rename. Command is normal for less than 1 second then reverts back to prior state. I have to use "properties" to rename files. Cannot use Favorites or Bookmarks. They drop down normally but disappear before you select anything. Cannot type addresses in Firefox or IE. I type 1 or 2 letters and they become high lighted in blue, as in rename, and are deleted for the next letter. Now I type the site I want in a search engines and enter the site that way. My system is built around a P5q3 Azus motherboard and runs 7 Ultimate, Norton360, Advanced System Care, and A-Squared free.

To Increase Pch To Get A Stable System

Aug 8, 2012

I googled around a bit about my i7 860 and what other kinds of O.C others had succeded with and during some of these reads they mention that they increase PCH to get a stable system and one used as high as 1.25 and only 1.18 vcore to achieve 3.8 ghz I belive it was, while I read other guides and peoples toughts and they never touch PCH or PPL, so im a bit confused so to say. I run these settings now and I ran prime95 for 1 hour and 12 min with 0 error.

New HDD And Clean Windows 7 Install Only Stable In Safe Mode?

Sep 4, 2012

I have a machine that's been flakey for about 2 months. It was fine, running Win7 64bit Home Premium just fine for 2 years. I upgraded the video card about 6 months ago and had no problems.Then, about 2 months ago, it would randomly stop responding. Mouse movements still worked, but buttons clicked wouldn't do anything. I could be running a Microsoft Security Essentials scan and it would just not progress. No malware scanners run from DVD found anything. I did the Kaspersky Rescue disc, and the Windows Defender Offline disc. Nothing was found.I assumed my HDD was dying, so I bought a new one (wanted to upgrade anyways). I took out the old HDD and put the new one in. I did a clean install of Win7 from a DVD I burned. The Win7 install goes perfectly. However, after the first login, I get the same problems after about 8-15 minutes. The machine just stops doing anything. The mouse still moves, status bars cycle but nothing completes. I can't open IE, can't kill anything from Task Manager, can't do anything with the mouse or keyboard that actually DOES anything, if that makes sense.

The weird thing is that the machine is perfectly stable in Safe Mode with Networking (other Safe Modes are also stable). It can run for a week straight in Safe Mode, connect to the internet, write word docs, etc. No errors, no warnings, no odd behavior. When I try to then reboot and login to Windows normally, same problems as above.Do I have a strange hardware issue (video card, memory failing, power supply...???) or some BIOS virus that's survived the new HDD and clean install?I'm at my wit's end, and my wife wants me to call Dell, which I don't want to do I'd rather fix this myself. I'm not afraid of formatting or wiping partitions because there's nothing on the HDD.

No Automatic Connection To Network

Jul 16, 2009

I have RC 7100x64 connected (per cat cable) to a wireless router. Windows 7 created a home network. Router is perfectly fine and my 2 laptops automatically login into the internet. In the beginning my despktop also jsut was able to be online after booting up.

At some point (I did all updates, installed all my software) the PC does not connect to the internet anymore. Tehonly way to get online is to:

- open Network Center

- leftclick "Connections: local area connection" --> disable

- go to trouble shoot problems

- then it finds " the local area network adapter is disabled"

- I click " fix it" and it will work.

I attached the screens

How can I make it connect automatically (as it did before)? I set all services I could think of to " automatic" (IP Helper etc.). From researching I read that XP had a similar problem with SP3. not sure if it is related, but coudl an update be at fault?

Everything is up to date, Kasperksy keeps viruses away, I did not do one of the registry-cleaner tools.

Since it worked at first, one of my isntallations or updates must have done it. I also did some of the "service optimizations" from here bu tundid all of them to resolve my problem.

One could say I should isntall a newer built, but first I just want to use it before I buy the real deal in October. Second, it used to work with RC 7100 and going through all the trouble reinstalling is a hassle.

Everything else works well.

No Network Connection Found

Oct 9, 2011

Out of the blue, I lost my Network and Internet connectivity Windows 7 gave me excellent troubleshooting tips like to check if I have a cable connected.Device manager tells me that my network adapter is working properly (Realtek GBE).When I try to connect to a network it tells me no network connection found. The machine is still configured as it was out of the box (relatively new machine - Dell XPS Studio 9100 - Windows 7 Home Edition 64 Bit). It been working fine for almost a year. I sincerely hope reformatting and reinstalling Windows 7 is not the answer to every windows 7 problem

Internet Connection, But No Network?

So, we have a network of about one terabyte of storage on it. It is normally connected to my laptop, a desktop and our Playstation 3.

Delayed Connection To Network

It seems like it takes several 5-10 minutes for windows 7 to realize its supposed to grant my computer access to the network. After boot up, I open the network and only see my own computer. I refresh several times over 5 minutes and finally the other network computers appear.

Network Connection Dies

Mar 5, 2009

About once every two days, my connection to the Internet dies, and won't come back without a System Restore.

I've got two XP machines along with my Windows 7 machine on a D-Link router. About once every two days, my Windows 7 machine just decides that it won't connect to anything on the Internet including chat clients. Without refreshing the router, I can still connect with my other two machines, so I know it's not the router. I even do a restart on my Windows 7 machine and it still won't connect. The only thing that works is a System Restore.

Any ideas of what I can repair without having to do a System Restore?
