Laptop has connected to this network before when I first set it up. Now when ever I attempt to connect it stays on unidentified network, public network. In advanced sharing settings it is set to public network as current profile.
View 4 RepliesHome network with Wifi and ethernet. Using 3x Notebooks and 3x workstations. One of the workstations (W7 ultimate) keeps changing between Public and Home. When this happens, the internet connection dies. I cannot see other workstations either when on public network. Workstation using wifi. Does the same on cable. When it changes to Public, it disconnects from the internet and I cannot get to the router even though it has the workstation has an IP(DHCP or static). Default gateway and subnet is correct. TCP v4 is being used and nothing else is enabled.
Why is this happening?
- I have tried DHCP as well as Static addresses
- Reconfigured NIC(Netgear WG311T), uninstalled and reinstalled it.
- Removed Wifi connection and re-added it.
- Changed auth type, encryption type and keys to connection
Have I covered everything? The only thing different is that I installed a new router - Duo Plus 300wr. It cannot be the router because all the other notebooks connect to it wireless and so does my iPad, Android device and tablet...so it rules that out?
Okay so I've installed windows and everything is working okay except i can't connect my laptop to my computer via LAN because it won't let me change it to a HOME NETWORK. It is just gets set to an unidentified Network. any possible suggestions?
Also I've look at removing this from the services but its not running it when i go under task manager, unless it somewhere else.

I am working as the all-purpose tech at a small school for kids with learning disabilities (no operating budget for IT) and we are in the process of upgrading parts of the network[Disclaimer: I did not setup this network, but I am heavily considering getting rid of everything and rebuilding it from scratch.]Setup:Right now we have an XP Pro Workgroup network with 4 Workgroups (Admin, Classroom, CompLab, Workgroup). We have about 50 computers (40 of them are Dell Optiplex GX 270s running XP Pro SP3, close to identical Hardware configs; the remainders are teacher's laptops and such).
We have 3 new machines (ADMIN workgroup) for the 2 school administrators and the administrative assistant. They are ASUS Essentio Desktops Model CM5570s Running Win 7 Home Premium. (You might start to guess where I'm going with the issues I'm having.)We are running a xerox WorkCentre 7346 w/ accounting, and have a few other printers scattered throughout the network.[Edit]The only machines not running XP Pro SP2/SP3 are the 3 ADMIN machines, my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1545), one laptop running Vista, 3 Macs, and 3 other laptops running Windows 7 [/Edit]Problem:The crux of the problem is with the 3 new machines working with the pre-existing XP Network.One of the new machines replaced our Administrative Assistant's old XP machine which hosted some files that the teachers needed to access (report cards, test results, etc.) When we put in the new machine, the teachers were no longer able to access these files across the network.
Most of the teachers are accessing the new machine (ADMIN1) on the ADMIN Workgroup from the other workgroups (CLASSROOM, COMPLAB, and WORKGROUP) are having issues. When attempting to access the new machine (ADMIN1), the pop-up error comes up:\ADMIN1SharedDocs is not available. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. <br><br>The network path was not found."I believe this to be a permissions and policy issue due to the limitations of Windows 7 Home Premium. We aren't able to fully integrate into the network from the Windows 7 side (tell me if I am off on this)Alternatively, we are getting the error when trying to access the CLASSROOM workgroup from a machine on the CLASSROOM workgroup of:"CLASSROOM is not accessible. [yada yada yada] . <br><br> Not enough storage is available to process this command."
This error pops up on a number of machines on the various workgroups trying to access their own and other workgroups and/or machines. This is most likely due to the 10 connection limit of XP Workgroups which I really want to solve by installing a server w/ SBS 2003 (we have the machine, not the OS, and not installed. . . yet.)Granted there are quite a few problems with the network and the way it is setup, I still have to make things work.We don't have a domain controller and I haven't been able to figure out how they set up the network in the first place, although I have managed to restructure some of the network. I have also begun to create a drawn out network map of infrastructure and after that I'm going to work on the arduous task of mapping out user permissions (which if you don't already know is one of the most time consuming things to do manually)
I have 2 laptop that I need network it? First laptop Lenovo Y460 and second Dell 5110. First connect with a LAN Cable. Then I goto Local Area Network both laptop and set IP.
Lenovo = IP 192.168.1.1
Gateway = 192.168.1.2
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Dell = IP 192.168.1.2
Gateway = 192.168.1.1
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
I goto change advanced sharing setting: (in both laptop)
- Turn on Network Discovery
- Turn on file and printer sharing
- Turn off password protection
But I can goto to another laptop isn't name computer alfa1. I goto run \alfa1. But don't access to it! Also I'm a administrator. My OS is Windows 7 home premium and another system Windows 7 Ultimate.
Is it possible with the non-Windows 7 machine's shares set to something besides "guest access allowed"? I've tried a few tweaks on my Windows 7 desktop and my Kubuntu 11.04 Linux-running laptop. Nothing has worked. Unless access to a shared directory is set to guest on the laptop, the Windows box keeps asking for a legitimate password, whenever I attempt to 'open' them.
Both machines have the same log-in strings for both basic log-on and Samba. Or do they? I'm presuming there's no separate logon/password required for Windows 7 Home Premium when it comes to file sharing, but as a late Windows XP Professional user (both SP2 and SP3), I'm not taking anything wholly for granted. Any Windows build since the dawn of XP that installs without gpedit.msc is bound to be lacking in other ways, imco.
I have a PC (Windows 7 Ultimate)

But I cannot see my laptop in my PC through network.
I've got a Shuttle SK22G2B (AMD Socket AM2) XPC kit that I recently transitioned from the RC 7300 'Ultimate' Windows 7 edition to a paid Windows HP version. Installation was smooth and basic functionality seems to work fine.
However I now have a persistant loss of network connectivity mostly connected with large file UPLOADs, it has happened after long absenses where I don't really have a connecting event but more often than not it happens during a sync with my dropbox.com account or with my windows home server (on the network).
I try to let the Network and Sharing Center repair the connection but that fails, when I try to reboot it usually hangs during the shut down process and requires a reset to get it running again.
This did not happen over 3 months of heavy Windows 7 RC7300 use with EXACTLY the same hardware. When the XPC is showing no connectivity I have full internet and intranet access from my Win Home Server (wired) and netbook (wireless) on the same router.
AMD 64 X2 4400+

-XPC is hooked in via ethernet, NOT wireless.
looking for ideas on how to fix this problem.
while installing 7 H.P. it gets to completing installation then freezes up after computer reboots a warning message appears stating windows 7 has failed to install and resume after reboot, and then the same warning message appears.
I tried the roll back installation option and a message flashes on and off to quickly to read.
and Vista will not come up to start over.
any Ideas on what to Do?
I successfully bought the upgrade version of Windows 7 Home Premium N, downloaded and extracted it and now I want to install it.
When I choose UPDATE in the intallation dialog it tells me that I cannot upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Home Premium ???
Every website from Windows and other people tells me that it IS possible and even the Windows 7 Update Advisor told me that I should not encounter any problems upgrading.
Has anyone of you yet encountered upgrading problems of compatible Vista/7 versions?
Or any other idea what I can do to solve the problem?!
I know that I can make a clean intall of 7, but this would be a pain..
Yesterday I was messing around on my brand-new laptop, and I was stupid enough to try a keygen to get Ultimate (I had HP). Surprising. It worked but the copy wasn't genuine obviously. So then I rebooted, pressed F8 at boot. An ran Toshibas recovery to try to get the computer to its out of box state. I got stuck at initializomg (either that or I was impaptient) so I turned off the laptop. Then when I truer to boot I got bootmgr is missing. I have an old vista Hp disk so I installed that for the time being. So my question is, how do I get it back to the original state? I do t have any important data or anything.

Then I connected my desktop to the internet and then connected my laptop and desktop using a crossover network cable. Both my machines have got win 7 installed. So when I created the network my laptop identified the network and allowed it to me to choose between home, work and public networks. I am able to share the internet too. But my desktop keeps on saying unidentified network which prevents me from joining my home-group.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just bought anew Acer Laptop with Windows 7. When I try to connect it to my home network it shows a good signal strength but it will not connect me to it. I get a box saying it is an Unidentified Network. We have gone through all the normal internet connection paths and reset the router. We are able to access an Iphone with no problem. WE took this laptop to my sons house and could not access his home network either. Receiving the same Unidentified Network message when we tried. We called Acer and they wanted us to pay for a remote access to this brand new laptop. We refused. We will take the laptop back to the store first because that is not right.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe original OS was Windows XP 32bit SP3. I upgraded this system to Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit SP2 with no issues.
I then went to upgrade the system to Windows 7 Premium. I chose the "Upgrade" install and not the "Clean" install. I've checked the updater to confirm that all my system information was adequate. I uninstalled the ATI Catalyst Controller, iTunes, etc. that it wanted me to. Oddly enough, the ATI Catalyst Controller was the most recent driver that supports Windows 7.
I checked online to see if the hardware was all supported by Windows 7. The Sapphire Vapor-X video card was not compatible or compatible... it simply wasn't on the list of either. The X-Fi Extreme Gamer said it was NOT compatible... yet, I had a driver for Windows 7 and the Windows 7 Application checker said that my sound card was ready for Windows 7... thus a discrepency.
I went on with the installation. I get to the last step where it resets the computer at 62% and I get a BSOD for about 1/3 of a second. It goes by too quickly for me to capture it. It then restarts the computer instantly with the result of "Upgrade was not completed successfully. Restoring prior OS yadda yadda". I've gone through this about 5 times now trying different things.. keeping the Catalyst controller installed, uninstalling the video card, removing the sound card, etc. Nothing seems to work.
It was recommended to me that I do a clean install... however, I have read that many others have done a clean install and theirs STILL doesn't get past the 62%.
Is it my hardware? Do I need to buy MORE hardware now that 7 is out that is on the compatible list?
Today, I managed to redecorate my bedroom; where my computer sat on top of a shaky, wooden desk. That desk is now gone, caput, and replaced by a much bigger, sturdier and prettier glass replacement.Before I dissasembled the computer to re-decorate, I was able to browse the internet at ease. There were no problems at all...However, after the new desk was setup - and all wires replaced in their correct slots, I find that I am unable to connect to the internet, or even the house's network! For the past year, I have been wired to the router using a RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P) Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC. It was plugged into an extension cord, in my room, into the Ethernet port in the back of my computer. Downstairs, it's twin was situated no less than 2 feet away from the router - plugged into the first port.Now, when I boot up the computer, the network notification presents the following message: "Unidentified Network. No network access", and sometimes presents a yellow ! next to it. So, I am reduced to typing on my mother's laptop - which has no problems connecting to the network.I am able to use the ipconfig /release command, but unable to use the /renew - it hangs in the command prompt, then tells me that the DHCP server cannot be located. The IP, beforehand, was reverted to 169.254.223.117 - before all of this, I was 192.168.0.5?

View 1 Replies View Relatedim running a Windows 7 Ultimate x64 computer and i and getting a error when i try to connect to the internet with my Belkin g Wireless adapter...
It has worked before and then one day it desided to say Unidentifed Network. So i thought i would do a troubleshoot and it just comes up with Unable to obtain a valid IP Configeration. I Have looked at so many forums to see if they have the answer but everyone's is a little bit diffrent to my problem.
I posted a reply on a similar topic but figured I'd start a new thread even though it seems this has been discussed a lot.I have a verizon wireless cell access point I connect a w7hp pc to it and set it as a home network. I also have a nic in the same w7hp box connected to a local 10/100/1g switch with a bunch of other stuff on it, an xp pc, a ps3, a directtv dvr, and a majicjack. That's my home LAN.I'm letting the w7hp machine do the dhcp as part of internet connection sharing which mostly works fine. I had to hard set an ip address for the dvr. There's even a registry entry that you can control the dhcp local subnet.What I'm finding is that with windows 7 home premium even though you can share an internet connection there is no way to change an independent home LAN network to be a "home" location.
Because w7hp decides the home LAN is "unidentified" it won't let you change the type and it's stuck as a "public" network. So none of your home computers can talk to the windows 7 computer. They can use the internet but that's about it.here's a lot of fixes floating around but none seem to correctly fix the problem.It's not a problem if you have w7pro because you can edit the security settings forunidentified networks and let the admin change them. But I can't even find the security registry entries in w7hp.
I had a network problem with my pc.. i donno how to fix it and look for some solutions, but failed.

View 1 Replies View Related5 month old Dell XPS 8500 Win 7 64 bit Pro as main computer connected by Wired Adapter, Upgraded Gateway 5632E also running Win 7 64 bit pro as second connected by Wireless. Both running Kapersky successfully. no network problems for 5 mo.
Both were successfully linked using homegroup. Had to take Gateway to a remote location to do a business demo. While there had to link to a local public WiFi. While connecting made mistake and left homegroup.
When Gateway returned to homebase a few days later it was fine, had no problems finding wireless but could not see or rejoin Dell machine homegroup. It would let me set up a new homegroup.
Went to Dell box and found 1) homegroup no longer existed, 2) router and network and wireless printing no longer found - Red X on the taskbar) even though internet was still working fine.
Took nearly a week of trying differernt fixes, on adapter- off adapter- different adapter reboot network, router, even updated router firmware (Yes I went through every ipconfig reset, renew, redecorate etc. I've used netsh functions to try to get evrything to reset. Changes services.msc settings per other posts. Finally in desperation, deleted every sub key in the registry related to network locational awareness and got the Dell to find the network, let me set it up as a "home" network and then even see the invitation to join the Gateway's homegroup.
Then I hit a wall- when I try to join- Win 7 says I can't join the homegroup because the network is not a "home network". Of course troubleshooting is useless and goes into an endless loop. Have searched in desperation for any way to make Win 7 return to a clean slate so it can sense that it really is on a home network without success. Applied the fix-it and hotpatch for when Win 7 gets stuck in public mode. No joy. Deleted the hide wizard subkey as suggested elsewhere. No Joy. Gut feeling says problem must lie in the NLA or peer networking somewhere but where?
Does anyone know of a method or set of steps (short of a clean reinstall of Win 7) to completely clear every thing the OS knows about my network and force it to acknowlege my network is a home network? Is there a registry hack that will clear the problem?
I know I could abandon the homegroup and do conventional file/print share but I am concerned that using that solution won't last as whatever is screwing up the homegroup could eventually screw regular sharing and then I'm back to reformating/reinstalling. I'm just about ready to join the Apple folks so I never have to work on Windows again.

I'm trying to re-rout a signal from one router through a computer to another router. The setup goes as follows:
Connected Network > My computer > Ethernet cable > Second router
The problem is, Windows recognises the router as an "Unidentified Network" and I have scourged the net for a solution. It worked when I had Vista. The router is a WRT300N Broadband router. It's quite old, but not outdated. Got it 3 years ago.
Recently when I try and connect to the internet my wireless connection network says it is an unidentified network with no internet access. This never happened before.

I am on another computer hooked up to the same router and modem, but it is running Vista instead, but the internet works just fine, and it is using the same cable as my other computer so it can't be the cable.

I just moved to a new home, and i cannot connect to my local LAN ! I am on a Mac right now ( arghh ) and the Internet works fine on this one.
I am using a cable to a router, wich is connected to a modem. The router is fairly old but has always worked fine ( using a direct cable doesnt work aswell ). Windows 7 says it is connected to a 'Unidentified Network'. The ipv4 settings for the adapter are; Automatic ip/dhcp.
ipconfig gives an ipv6 address. The automatically generated ip is: 169.254.241.20. There is nothing at Default Gateway. The driver settings are correct, as far as i believe. I downloaded the latest x64 Windows 7 marvell yukon drivers.
I disabled sleep mode on my pc. I don't have the Bonjour service running. On the Mac, i only had to enable DHCP and it recognized the network correctly. These are the ip's that it got:
ip: 83.87.107.135
subnet: 255.255.248.0
router: 83.87.104.1
