i just got a new router, my brother helped me set it up this router creates 2 wifi network, one named A, the other one named B.A is faster than B (i don't know why) on my ipad or phone or any mobile devices, i see both networks but on my windows 7 PC, i only see B (the slower one)so where is A? i need this faster one, why does it show up on mobile devices but not on my Windows 7 PC?when he set up the router, he said to me that the website (routerlogin.net - where you can set up your router, put password, etc) says "A is available for Mac and B is available for Windows PC". is this the reason?but what about mobile devices, they can connect to both networks?
For some reason my laptop will not remain connected to my wifi. The other computers on the network are running just fine. The laptop in question is one I recently received from a friend who had no problems like this. I have been browsing various forums for quite some time, and have been unable to fix the problem. Running Windows 7 on an ASUS machine, the router is a Linksys RangePlus.
So the problem is that my WiFi somehow doesn't show up on my devices. However, the internet works perfectly fine through ethernet cable for my PC. All my other devices such as my phone and laptop dont see the router even though I have enabled wifi through the router control panel. I also have reset the router manually, updated to recent firmware. My ISP said it might be my computer so I disconnected the cable from the pc to the router and hardwI thought it was my router's problem so I exchanged it for the same model (Netgear N300) but the problem still exists. I went back to ask the computer store to test the router's wifi and they said that it worked fine...
1st post...I have a dell lap top and a desk top at home I use for work. I have a linksys wireless router I always use for my laptop. All of sudden today i cannot connect to the internet. I have a red X over the wifi icon. it says "not connected - No connections available". i have done all i know to do and sat on hold with dell tech support for over an hour. I always pick up 4 -8 other networks around me too, which is weird that it says none are available. I am on my desktop now, and internet is working fine. reset the router and restarted several times. I believe the wifi connection is enabled.
I disabled my network adapter then restarted and now the adapter is no longer showing up in my network connections. How in the world do I get it back? I have looked at other options (like under the registry which was suggested on a couple of places). I have never seen this happen before. I even reinstalled my drivers and still nothing. How do I enable it again?
A friend of mine has a laptop with windows 7 and he told that sometimes when he boots his pc the windows network indicator is square with a X(no connetions-not connected,which i think means that there is no wifi adapter , and not that there are no available networks-this is with signal icon and a x) so he cant connect to any wifi networks even though there are available the problem remains until he shuts down and may fix at next boot
I live in a student shared house which has a WiFi network set up. It has come to my attention that my network has recently gained a gateway between the router and the internet which is visible through the windows network map, myself and my housemates all connect to the internet through the router but it appears that this gateway is linked to one of my housemates, right-clicking the gateway brings a drop down menu with his computer name in the list.Since this gateway between the router and the internet connection has appeared there has been a noticeable performance loss to the network, being the only gamer in the house this has affected me the most in games having higher pings and dropouts all the time, although i understand that is also normal with using WiFi it has not been that much of a problem until now.I would like to ask how and why he is able to create gateway between the router and internet connection and how to stop it, i would like to also point out that the individual love his torrents and has possibly found a way around the bandwidth limiter in the router, he has currently denied any foul play but has tried other things in the past.
When clicking on "network", only the computer I am working on shows up.This is on an active directory domain.I hav made sure network discovery is turned on.Link layer topology is started and is checked for all network adaptors.I have gone into gpedit and turned on Mapper i/o and responder.I have tried turning off the firewall.I can still map drives just find and such but I need to link a program to a license manager and it will only work through the network map.
Environment: Desktop : Windows 7 Ultimate Laptop1 : Windows 7 Home Laptop2 : Windows 7 Ultimate
Laptop1 can view and access the libraries on the Desktop. Laptop2 can see the libraries on the Desktop but can not access the folders. I'm not sure what to do here, I've triple checked that libraries are shared on the Home Group.
I do a lot of wifi hotspot testing over Teamviewer. When the hotspot doesn't work I lose the Teamviewer connection. Is there any way to make Windows connect to a specific network after about 60 seconds or so?
If I can choose the specific wifi network to make Windows to connect to after a set amount of time my life would be much easier!
First of all every time I am logged on to my WIFI at home, after a couple of hours, I get told that I am loged on to two WIFI networks (A and B), whilst I only get one set of bars in my statusdisplay (bottom right). When I switch off WIFI, network centre keeps telling me I am loged on to WFI B. A is the SSID and B is the typenumber of teh router I have, so there is only one WIFI signal. Secondly, after being logged on to my home WIFI, All activity seizes, I can not load pages, check e-mail, or anything. I can access my router and it tells me everything is ok, but packages seem to come to a halt. My PS3 can be online, so the problem is in my laptop I think. I have tried releasing and renewing my IP and resetting my router, but only rebooting my laptop helps.

I have a network setup with in our home, and am able to connect to it through windows 7 but after a bit of time all the other computers disappear off of the network. I have lowered the encryption and allowed windows to actively look for networks which it does well but it will only do this for a short period of time. Does anyone know how I can fix this problem? Like I said the network will appear and I do have access to it on occasion but then disappears and will not return.
For some reason my netgear router is not showing on the network page of 'my computer'.it used to show up as 'Netgear Router' and if i clicked on it it would ask for my login and then display my configuration setting etc on a browser page. If I click on a link I have setup on my browser, it navigates there as normal.Not a humungous issue, but although I have tried a system restore, it still does not show up as expected. Connectivity is fine, as per normal.
Windows Server 2008 R2Windows 7 32 BitI have a Windows 7 Enterprise box that when started will only create 2 of 3 mapped network drives. This does not happen every time either, just about 2-3 days of the 5 day work week. 2 of the drives are mapped via a script, while the 1 drive that is the problem child is set through the Properties-->Profile-->Home Folder of the user on our AD box. We have set the drop down letter to H and verified the path. It is correct, as it works some days.
Every time I boot into Windows 7, it tries to connect to 2 network connections.
1. JohnResidence (which is a Home network)
2. Unidentified Network (which is a Public network)
There is no way for me to delete the Unidentified network, as it doesn't show up in the list when i select 'merge or delete'. However, when I disable my network adaptor, and RE-enable it, the unidentified network connection disappears, and it connects successfully to the JohnResidence connection.
This is becoming a nuisance, because EVERY single time I login to windows I need to go through the same process and have no idea how to get rid of it.
I have a home network that has been set up on a modem with internal router for ethernet ports and wifi. When computers connected to the modem via ethernet cables, they can easily discover each other through the 'network' icon. But when I connect my laptop to the network's wifi, only the desktop computer can see the laptop in 'network' and not the other way. The laptop can't see any computers. When I tried to connect/open the laptop through the computer, error code 0x80070035 network path not found came up.I tried pinging the computers (both with ip address and name), and heres what happened:-when I ping desktop to laptop, it didn't work-when I ping laptop to desktop, there was response. Then the desktop showed up on the laptop's 'network', and I can view/transfer shared files. desktop can also connect/open the laptop's shared files. Pinging from desktop to laptop also works.I've checked things like firewall, make computer discoverable in network, services. They all make no difference to the situation. Where unless if I ping the desktop from my laptop, the desktop won't show up and file sharing won't work.
On my new Lenovo V570, I've been having an issue where it takes anywhere from 30 seconds to 3 minutes to connect to my local network.It will show all the available networks in the list, and either if I wait, or if I try to click my automatic network and click "connect", it still takes a large chunk of time.This happens on all of my saved connections, as well as any public connections I try to access.I believe my wireless is run through Intel My Wi-fi, though for some reason the icon is no longer in my icon tray.
I am going crazy. I bought this Samsung Laptop with Win7. The system finds my wifi network and asks for my password but it wont connect and everytime it gives me a different error
- Problem with Wireless Adapter or access Point
- dhcp is not enabled for wireless network connection 3
- Not favorite profile selected
I tried the usual unplugging the modem/router, didnt work. I plugged the laptop directly to the modem, didnt work.
My wifi at work will recognize the wireless network and says it's connected. Yet there is no internet. So I use the Ethernet cable and internet works. My wifi connects immediately on my home wifi router with no issues. I had wireless working flawlessly last week, but all this week it won't connect.
I have a Desktop PC and a netbook. They are in the same room and so is my router. My router is a 2Wire from AT&T. All these devices support wireless G. My file transfer speeds from my desktop to laptop is going at a dismal rate of around 800KB/s. I am connected to my router at 54Mbps with my WiFi cards on both the systems. I am trying to figure out where this bottleneck is and try and speed this up.
-I am in an apartment building. There is least interference on channel 11 so I have set my router to use channel 11.
-The router is set to work at either B or G but I know I'm definitely connected by G on both the computers since I'm connected at 54Mbps.
-I have full WiFi signal on both computers and there is hardly any interference in my apartment that I am aware of. My internet bandwith is perfectly fine.
-Transfer rates between these two computers through a LAN connection is blazing fast. Its connected at 1Gbps and transfer rates are around 100MB/s
-If I connect the desktop and netbook in the Ad Hoc mode, I get a pretty steady 2MB/s
-In the registry, I have set the NetworkThrottlingIndex to FFFFFFFF hex (so throttling is essentially turned off) but that makes no difference.
i have an internet wifi at home and there are about five computers/laptops and mobile phones and other device that is connected to my wifi and i want to find a way where i can block website on my home wifi so none of the the devices can access the sites, the site that i meanly refer is adult sites.i have tried OpenDNS but my internet provider does not allow 3rd party dns resolvers, so i am looking for a software or something like that which can block adult site meanly.[CODE]
I am using HCL ME 74 series laptop with win 7 OS 32 bit. recently my OS crashed and I reinstalled the OS. surprisingly there are no netwrok controllers in my device anager. the network adpters give by HCL have been used. But the system is detecting the wifi networks all around but not connecting. The HCL ME series gives some funny buttons to press: set wifi enable -> Fn+F11, and bluetooth -> fn+F12 . both are enables.
I don't have an Android device, but today AndroidAP showed up in the wireless network connection box.It has an option selected to connect automatically and every time I turn it off it turns itself back on again. I'm a bit worried that it's someone accessing my network. Why this is showing up and how to get rid of it? I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium.
So basically new folders added by uTorrent to my "Download" folder which is shared to everyone on my network don't show up when I access the older from any computer on the network. (except the one where the files are located)I have to say they do eventually show up... I guess when I restart the host or something maybe?
Yesterday I got my friend to download windows 7 on my mac via bootcamp. I got it back today and I tried my wireless at home but didn't work. So I tried LAN line as well, which didn't work either. I went through few sites, they all told me to go on device manager and update my drives. The problem is that i can't find either modem or network adapter on my device manager.
