I am a student living in student accomodation, in a hall with 4 others. However i have to connect my Windows 7 PC through ethernet, which is fine, but then all our wireless devices can't connect as there is no WiFi. So i set up an Ad-Hoc network on my PC (i have a wireless USB). I was able to set up the network and find it on my wireless devices but unable to connect to it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAbout two months ago I had some money problems and was forced to move in with my dad. I have a 20GB Xbox 360 and Xbox Live. I knew my dad had the internet so I could still use Live.I have been doing so via an Ethernet wire going from my laptop (connected via wireless to the router) to the Xbox.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm running Windows 7 on my laptop for some time now, and I am really satisfied with it.
I have just one thing bugging me, since I can´t get it to work as it should.
Windows has recognized the "Ethernet Controller" and "Network Controller" as USB devices (therefore I can "Safely remove them").
I was wondering if any of you guys is going through something like that or have any clue on solving this issue.
Okay. I am new to computers, I just hated vista with such wrath that I printed out everything ever to computers and updated to windows 7.
I had vista 32 bits, and all my drivers were working correctly when I upgraded to windows 7 32 bits. But I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 64x because I found out my computer has additional RAM that wasn't being used by the 32x OS.
When I did this, I had to install some new drivers, which I figured out by putting in my ASUS driver cd and then from device manager I would search the ASUS driver cd for correct drives.
(The ASUS Driver CD wouldn't work, it would tell me my operating system (obviously) wasn't vista, so I had to use the driver folder in it manually)
So, I can connect to password-less wireless perfectly, like my neighbors, but my work's pass-worded network it says connected but I can't actually go use the internet. Same with when I plug in Ethernet, it will tell me I'm connected but no internet.
I read around the internet and it said it has something to do with drivers. I tried downloading 64x versions of my drivers but I had difficulty using and installing them,
Here are my Network cards:
Atheros AR928X Wireless Network Adapter
Bluetooth Device (Personal Area Network)
Bluetooth Device (RFCOMM Protocol TDI) (Pretty sure bluetooth doesnt relate to my internet but whatever)
Realtek RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P) Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.20)
Each time i load up my computer everything is running nice and smoothly when i start to open up alot of things that uses internet (or simply play a game) all of a sudden my network card dies and starts saying "An Ethernet cable is not plugged in" blah blah. Anyways the cable works 100% I've tried about 6 different cables all resulting in the same thing..
I've tried updating the driver that still didn't fix
I've tried uninstalling the network adapter and reinstall didn't fix it
I've disabled Ivp6 thingy still doesn't fix it
I'm connected to a Router/homenetwork using a REALTEK PCIe GBE Family Controller and computer specs are in my profile.
I've been having this problem for weeks now and haven't had any luck fixing it. I'm having an unidentified network issue on my desktop, which is running Windows 7. I know it SHOULD be working because I've tried plugging the cable into my laptop and disabling wi-fi, and that works fine.I'm currently on my university's network, and this only started when I first moved in this semester. My ethernet was working fine when I was at home over the summer, and when I was at school last semester. I'm able to obtain an IP address, and I'm able to ping 127.0.0.1 and my IP address successfully from the command line. Based on reading tons of other posts, I've also tried.resetting TCP/IP. dnsflush disabling IPv6 uninstalling Bonjour reinstalling drivers for my onboard network card (mobo: ASUS P7P55D-E LX, Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller)resetting the CMOSbuying a new Intel NIC http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833106033) changing the "Link Speed & Duplex" setting for both cards (tried 1.0 Gbps full duplex, 100Mbps full and half duplex) changing network settings to automatically configure unidentified networks as private networks instead of publicrunning virus/malware checks I'm really at my wit's end for what else to try here. I thought buying a new NIC would do the trick and it was a last resort for me, but even that hasn't worked.
View 13 Replies View RelatedIn our office we have our PC's connected to our inter-office network server via the Ethernet ports (Local Area Connection) with a hard wire to a hub, that in turn runs to our server. We also each have a wireless internet connection on our PC's via a USB wireless adapter. When we were using XP this was not a problem to have access to the server AND the internet at the same time.
When my PC died last year I bought a Dell Inspiron 560 slim tower with Windows 7 to replace my XP machine. The first problem I ran into was that I could no longer use the wireless internet connection AND the hard wired connection to our server operating at the same time. If I stayed connected to our server, I will not have a wireless connection. If I go into the "Local Area Connection" properties and "disable" the connection, I almost instantly get my wireless connection back. The big issue when doing this is if I leave our database program (ACT!) open while the server connection is disabled, I have to shut down ACT!, then restart it before I can connect it to the server. If I try to without closing and reopening it I get all kinds of errors.
So, in the mean time, I have just put a shortcut on my desktop that allows me to enable and disable the Local Area Connection when I need internet access.
A couple days ago, my boss's PC grabbed a virus that slipped past McAfee (that program is now gone!!) and really hosed up his PC. He bought the Windows 7 upgrade software and wiped the hard drive and installed Windows 7. He is now having the same issue as I am.
For what it's worth, he is using a Belkin Wireless-G USB wireless adapter, and mine is a Netgear Wireless-N USB adapter.
Is there any way we can have the two connections operate at the same time like they did in XP? It really becomes a pain sometimes when we are on the phone with a client and we need to jump back and forth between info that is online, and info that is on our server that we access through ACT!.
I tried to allow my windows 7 laptop to print over the network, and after 3 hours gave up as nothing seemed to work. I must have done something because now I cannot connect to WiFi at all or Ethernet. It says on the system tray Not connected and below that connections available, and under wireless network connection it says it is connected to my wireless connection but I cannot connect.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have a number of different laptops running Windows 7 and all have the same issue. The very first time a laptop is connected to the company network via Ethernet or WiFi (lets assume we have connected by WiFi) you receive the prompt to choose a network location. After selecting "work" the laptop can connect to the domain and everything works as expected.
Now if the WiFi on the laptop is switched off and the user try's to use the Ethernet connection the Ethernet adapter reports a "Unidentified Network". The only way to get the Ethernet adapter to discover the domain is to disable the WiFi adapter completely which our users cannot do as they do not have Admin permissions on our systems.

My laptop is from Toshiba, model L650 PSK1JA OK3017. Here's Toshiba's driver page for my device: Support :: Toshiba ::Computers, Laptops/Notebooks, Tablets, Televisions, DVD and Blu-Ray Players, Camcorders, Storage, Accessories, and moreI recently purchased a blank hard drive along with a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. I've installed all drivers listed on the page for a 64 bit system but when I try to install the "Intel Wireless LAN Driver (For Intel Model Only)" driver or Proset driver, the driver extraction begins, ends, but when the setup is meant to run, nothing happens. I've redownloaded it and attempted to install it twice to no avail.Basically, I cannot connect to the internet and Windows cannot detect my network adapterI can't call Toshiba support because their operating hours are when I'm at school.casionally, when I try running the driver I mentioned before and the extraction is complete, when I select "No" as to whether I want to run the file, Windows gives me the error: "Archive Extractor -- Error occured in system module [-135]".

It didn't work, but that is beside the point. Now I'm getting driver errors about my Ethernet and Network Controller, and I can not connect to the internet with wireless or cables. Apparently I have WAN Miniport Network adapters and no other Network adapters.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI did a windows 7 clean install on my HP Mini 210 4051 nr as part of creating a dual boot with Ubuntu. In Linux the internet works fine, but in Windows 7 it does not. In the device manager I see yellow flags over the ethernet and network controllers. Code 28 (My model does have an ethernet port).
Because the machine cannot connect, I downloaded all the related drivers (everything from the network tab) from the HP website for my model with another computer and then put them all in a folder on the Mini's desktop via USB. When I try to install the drivers through the device manager, and direct it to that folder, it says it finds nothing usable.

I have Brother MFC7340 printer connected to my HP home premium Windows 7 64 via a USB port. There is no ethernet connection. I want my Windows XP computer, connected to the local home network via ethernet hard connection through my wireless router to be able to print either with a hard connect or wirelessly to this printer. I am having trouble figuring out what to do and have tried various strategies to no avail.

And I keep getting directed to some driver all inclusive salesmart, I am upgrading O/S to avoid them in the first place.
my biggest problem isn't that I don't know how to do it. The problem is that, I've only seen it don on a ps2 SLIM, I always enjoyed the original ps2 so I never upgraded.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to connect a PC running Windows 7 to a Mac running Snow Leopard (10.6.2) via an Ethernet cable?
I wasn't able to make it work under Vista, but I was hoping Windows 7 would have some changes under the hood to make it possible. (I have the Workgroup set up and the computers connected but when I try to connect from either direction I just get the message that the username/password combo is wrong.)
P.S. I'm using 64-bit Home Premium on an hp dv3t and a Mac Pro desktop if it makes any difference.
Which of the cables is the ethernet cable please.I'm trying to transfer my documents into my new laptop.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWe have 4 Emachines desktops running Windows 7. 3 of the 4 use a Cisco wireless adapter USB to get on internet through our Netgear router. Sorry if I'm using the names like I'm advertising for them, just don't know how much difference knowing brand to brand makes. Anyways one of the desktops USB just stopped working, it showed up in the device manager when you would plug something in but it could not read off of it. I tried multiple portable drives and it the USB wifi adapter quit working. After a few hours I somehow figured out that if I brought the desktop and plugged it into a ethernet cable it would get online. I then performed a Windows update and it fixed the USB's. It done that twice over the period of a week. Both times a updat fixed the problem. I say all that to say Sunday, the one computer that is hardwired to the router by Ethernet cable quit working. The difference is the USB's all work fine, but I believe there is something wrong with the Ethernet port. Basically the same scenario one day its fine next it's not. I've check for updates but it say there is none. I have changed ethernet cable between them, tried swapping port with the cable. Also I swapped other computers to the same ports, they got online fine without a problem. I called Emachines they walked me through a test like thing in dos then told me it was fine. I haven't installed anything recently it just quit?

When I look at my devices, my Intel 82566 Gigabit Network Connection has the status "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device." I've tried re-installing and updating the driver, but I can't tell whether I've done this successfully. In any event, it still doesn't work.
I have a Dell XPS 410. Let me know if you need any other information.
Yesterday I completely wiped my computer down to the bone, and found out that my ethernet driver was removed. I am currently connecting with a rosewill wireless usb, although I do want my ethernet card back. The usb gradually makes my internet slower and does occasionally make my computer crash. I am currently using a HP Pavilion Slimline s5710f PC and it is running on Windows 7.
