I can't seem to be able to connect to my wireless Internet on one of the computers I have. (It's NOT a laptop) I plugged the router into the computer and it can't find my network, or any, really. It works on a different computer. I'm guessing the wireless config is turned off or something. I have played around with the computer and can't seem to turn it on. Where would it be located? I'll post updates as I get them.
View 2 RepliesI have too much info and would prefer not to have to do this. The problem is my wireless connection shows that I am connected at full strength but web connection will not show up. I ultimately have to put the computer on standby and then turn it back on before wireless will actually work. I thought it might be a problem with my router but it happens anywhere I go, with any wireless connection. My spouse has a laptop as well and he is able to connect everytime right away. Also just recently I plugged my earphones into my computer and they play through the phones as well as the speakers. Usually gateway has great help but not this time.

View 3 Replies View RelatedThe wireless connection can't be established easily, I have to restart the system in order to connect, especially, when I wake my laptop from hibernation or standby. I updated the wireless adapter driver, I also changed the channel in which my laptop connects to. I read some articles that state the problem but after following almost all of them, I couldn't pull off anything. It takes many attempts to connect to my university wireless router. I would emphasize on the wake-up. I have 2 other laptops and they connect in a speed of light. All of the laptops have Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/BG Network connection and the same latest driver.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just re-installed Windows 2000 and I have a strong wireless signal to the usb adapter but cannot get connected to the internet. What is it about 2000 networking that is the trick to this? I have it set up to obtain an IP address automatically. By the way it is connecting to a wireless access point, not directly to the router. The access point is piggybacked off the main router.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI had a problem trying to connect my Canon Pixma 4000 so that I could access it wireless via our home LAN. I have one laptop(the wife's) attached directly to the router (cable service from Optimum). My laptop is used wirelessly from another part of the home. All was working well, except I could never get the printer to work so that I could use it wirelessly, so I had it plugged in directly to my laptop. Up to this point, it was all ok. I have AVG and ZoneAlarm running on both computers. A friend, (really) was at my home and volunteered to connect the printer so that it would work wirelessly. He is a UNIX administrator, manages a number of pc's too. I thought, "this is great, my own administrator".
To shorten the story, he removed ZA, the computer will not work wirelessly, only works when connected directly to the modem and the printer doesn't work wireless. I called ZA, and they guided me through removing all the "orphans" that were left behind, so that cleared up a problem whereas I could connect to the net, but couldn't get to another url. I did not re-install ZA yet, because I don't want to add anything else into the mix. I will post a HJT log if that is what is needed. I DO NOT care if the printer works wirelessly. I will live with it connected to the back of my computer, BUT, I do want my laptop to work wirelessly so that both me and my Frau can be on-line at the same time. I have been through the IP address checking, all is ok there. If I try to connect via the SYSLINK wireless, I get nothing, even PING ing different sites gets no valid response. Regrettably, I have some tech knowledge, but not enough to figure out this one.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI followed the advice of the sticky above and with my "refreshed" XP Home Installation on my Dell Desktop, I can't connect to the Internet. The "find a connection" Wizard seems to want to find a dial-up connection and nothing in the way of broadband. I use a Linksys Wireless G PCI Adapter card. The reinstallation did not wipe out any documents or user created files, so am wondering if there is a place in the old Windows files that I can use to get my old connection?

This is what is happening, I can connect to the internet if both my ethernet and wireless are connected. If I disconnect the ethernet cable I cannot connect to the internet but I can ping websites (I pinged google with zero packets lost). The wireless connection seems to be configured properly. Here is the ipconfig /all (with ethernet disconnected and wireless connected):

I reinstalled the wireless card software and it it talking to the router but I can't get to the internet.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been using a Belkin Wireless Router on my XP Pro system for some time but now it will not connect to the web. I think the problem has been caused by a virus but my system appears clean now. As it stands I cannot access the Router Configuration because the message "Network Not Available" appears. I have been in contact with my ISP, Belkin and have replaced the router with a new one all without success. I have looked into the WZCSVC and other services and when checking the dependencis the nessage "WMI:Critical Error" appears. All settings on the system are correct for setting up the router but it will not access the web. it seems the computer will not allow the router to "talk" to the web. Whatever caused the problem also appears to have deleted the system restore poits.

View 7 Replies View RelatedMy home wireless network is connected at excellent signal strength, and the other computer on the network can access the internet, but once or twice a day, none of the browsers on my operating system can load anything until I restart. Also, TrendMicro can't update until restart. Possibly related: The last time this happened, I checked task manager and found two copies of rundll32.exe, but only one copy once I restarted. The computer was nuked about a month ago, I've kept my user privileges to the minimum and I perform frequent updates and scans, so a trojan seems unlikely, but maybe it's a driver problem? Also, on one occasion the wireless showed limited/no connectivity, but this is not usually the case.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy problem is : When I called Verizon yesterday, I was told that to connect the printer to the router, I do not need the print server. I was asked to locate the ethernet port at the back of my printer, plug the ethernet port cable and connect it to the Verizon router. Unfortunately, my printer does not have an ethernet port. I was told to call HP,and I did but did not get much help.What should I do to get my wireless printer work? I have a PC and a laptop. Prior to Verizon, I have a DSL and Vonage, both routers and print server did not have the same problem.

View 10 Replies View RelatedWe have two laptops and one wireless (HP Photosmart C7280) printer. Our laptops both connect to the internet wirelessly through a router. I was able to install and can print wirelessly from my laptop (a Mac) with no problems. However, we cannot figure out how to print wirelessly from my boyfriend's laptop (a Dell). We have installed the printer software and the printer itself on his laptop, and the laptop is able to identify the wireless printer over the network. We made sure that the printer is set to "online" and that file/printer sharing is turned on. But, whenever we go to print any kind of a file, we get an error message simply stating that the printer was unable to print and that we should run the troubleshooter. So, we run the troubleshooter, and we get this message:"The troubleshooter was not able to ping (detect a connection with) your print server. This might be the cause of the problem. Verify that your network is configured correctly and that you are connected to the network."
I am more used to working with Macs and my boyfriend is computer illiterate, so we're a bit lost as to what this means. I was able to set up a wireless network connection on his laptop, but beyond that I'm not sure what else to do. Most of the other advice I've seen online involves a wireless printer that is wired to one computer, and another laptop trying to wirelessly access that printer through the connected computer...if that makes any sense. Our printer isn't wired to anything, and we just can't figure out why it'll print wirelessly on the Mac but not on the Dell laptop. Any ideas?

View 14 Replies View RelatedIf i log onto my computer and just go into network connections, the computer is not able to look for wireless networks. if i hit the button to find networks, it gives me some strange error message. i have noticed though that i can fix the problem if i manually go into services and start the wireless zero configuration service myself. i configured this service to start automatically, and to keep restarting if attempts to start fail, but for whatever reason, the service does not start on its own when i boot the computer. once i start the service, i am able to connect without any problems.
The error message i get says something about finding more than one wirless device. i have a belkin usb wireless card, and before i installed the one i have now, i had another that coincidentally was the same size and also made by belkin. thinking that maybe some software was still on the computer, causing it to find both, and consequently not being able to connect to either, i uninstalled all the software for both routers and deleted all the related program files off of the computer. then i reinstalled and...got the same exact problem.
