Hardwired Computer Into The Router
May 28, 2005
I have 4 computers on a D-Link wireless router. My wife uses the wireless feature. All computers connect to the net flawlessly. The two downstairs computers are hardwired. One is a Pentium 120mh running Win98, the other is a P4 Running WinXP Pro. I started a Home network using the P4 and made up a Setup disk which I installed on the rest of the computers. The two downstairs computers and the wife's laptop all work with the network. A recently purchased Dell Dimension 3000 completes the system and it too was hardwired into the router but refuses to co-operate.It neither sees the work group or can be seen by the others. I have tried several things, including disabling the firewall, pinging seems to work fine. I tried contacting Dell, but that was a bust.

My guess is the router has a built-in firewall, which slows hemps download speed? I read 100Mbps with hard wired, and 54Mbps max with wireless.

I am hoping somebody on here will be able to help me. I just installed a wireless router so the kids could have the Internet on their computer. I went into the setup and set times to limit how late they could be on. When the time comes that they should be shut off the router disconnects them and then reconnects them shortly thereafter. I have it set to shut off at 9:00 p.m. and turned back on at 8:00 a.m.. I am using a Linksys systems router.

All right here is my story and my problem.I am using router Thomson Speedtouch 780 WL and Windows XP SP 2 Version 2002. Everything worked well until one day my connection dropped and now doesn't work. I reseted router and couldn't set it up again on my PC! (web browser doesn't open router webpage) but it worked everything well for laptop. My PC doesn't say like router would be unplugged, but it says that my connection is "Limited or no connectivity". I can't even use Mail programs/MSN on my PC, but all works on wifi/laptop using cable.My config settings seem to be same as on laptop and I reinstalled my ethernet driver but nothing has got better.

I need lots of help, I have a HP system with Windows XP Pro. I tried to connect the system as a 2nd system to a linksys router.. went under network connections and no icon there in order for me to connect it to the router. Don't know how to set this up. That is one problem. The other problem is that when I start the system it will go to the Welcome screen and wont go any further. I tried reinstalling the Windows XP Pro but I think I really screwed things up

We run Comcast high speed, two computers running though a router setup. My son "opened a port" to speed up his game play. My computer now crawls. Pages take too long to load, and I now sometimes get the server error message here, server not responding. Any idea what I can do. My son seems baffled, but I know he doesn't want to sacrifice his warp speed game play.

I'm having problems with my LAN connection and router.Although the LAN connection is connected and firewalled, the router is on with all the lights working, i cannot get on to the net. When I open my internet browser to go to a web page it begins to search for it, however then displays page cannot be displayed message and informs me that the server cannot be found or a DNS has occurred.Sometimes i get a bubble pop up saying limited or no connectivity.
Before the connection stopped working, my main computer was connected directly to the router and there were two laptops also using the router wirelessly. However now none of the computers can access the net The connection works if i remove the router and use a broadband modem.I cannot configure my router as no instructions came with it relating to its use and after numerous attempts at contacting the manufacturers

I've posted this on other forums but to date, no one has been able to help at all. And please read the whole thing as others have posted responses but they aren't relevant.I have a small home system, an XP SP3 desktop, a Win7 Laptop, a file server, and a LinkSys router WRT310N (my third router).The problems seem to occur on the XP desktop. Starting about nine months ago, http requests would become corrupted. Once when I tried to access a page on NYTIMES.COM, I got that page, but on the WASHINGTONTPOST.COM (page not found, of course). Now, about once a day or more, I get some sort of corruption. Mostly, I lose network mappings (I have a small home system); and also at the same time, I cannot get any documents via HTTP; or just some seemingly random sites, I get URL not found, or today, the comments on some blogs don't appear at all. USUALLY, rebooting fixes this, so I reboot several times a day.
THE Win7 Laptop NEVER has any problems. Both are wired into the router. When the problems occur, I cannot raise the router from the desktop; nor can I access any documents via HTTP even using IP addresses. I can however, ping successfully.ONCE I noticed that when the problem occurred, and my phone was using the wireless connection to the router, it too had the same problems with its browser. BUT the WIN7 Laptop never has any problems.I've used MALWAREBYTES and other Anti-virues, but they find nothing. I've tried repairing the stack with "netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt" but that doesn't work either.

I just got a Airlink101 wireless 4 port router (AR325W). $15.00 at fry's. Great buy, and had to get it.I want to just use the wired setup. Not the wireless.How do I turn off the wireless part. I do not want to use it yet, and I do not want anyone else to use my connection over the air. My home computers are already set up in a wired network. This is my first router, so I'm a bit unused to router jargin. I did a quick scan of the complete manual, and saw how to set up the wired and wireless part, but nothing about turning it off the wireless. Maybe it is as simple as not connecting the antenna. I don't know. Anyone have any thoughts?

Thinking of buying 2 Acer Aspire 3002LMi Sempron 2800 laptops but am unsure what would be the best router for setting up my home network in the Uk. Which is the most reliable-Belkin, Link Sys,BT or Cable & Wireless.

I have a client with a DLink DI-804HV VPN Router. They need to connect with PPTP using the Windows XP "Network Connections". I am able to connect to the VPN with no problem. Their IP structure is 192.168.2.x subnet is 255.255.255.0 and DHCP is turned on with a range of 192.168.2.2 - 254 If I have a user from the PC #1 with 192.168.2.100 ping the PC #2 with 192.168.2.200 then he gets replies with no problem. If I ping him PC #1 (192.168.2.100) I get a reply through the VPN. If I ping PC #2 (192.168.2.200) I get no reply.
So, I had him take the PC #2 192.168.2.200 out of the network (unplug the ethernet) and manually change his IP PC#1 to 192.168.2.200 I cannot ping him. If he changes his IP to anything other than the one DHCP gives him I can't ping him. The only option I can find for the PPTP server settings in the DI-804HV is "Virtual IP of PPTP Server" which I have tried changing to 192.168.5.x and 10.0.0.x with no luck on either.

I have two PCs here that both have fresh installs of XP. One is XP w/ SP2 the other is a Compaq branded version. Neither machine will get on the net. They are both using a Cat5 Ethernet connection to a router. I can get to the net fine with my other PC which is connected to the same router. I can ping the router from either of the problem boxes, but can't get to the router setup page from the browser on either one. I am assuming that it is not spyware related, since the machines have never reached the net.I am sure this must been something small I have overlooked due to a brain fade.

I am running two computers(One PC and a Laptop, both on XP) on a small network. I have a Motorola Cable Modem, and a Motorola Wireless Router, which seems to be working fine. I can connect to the internet on the Laptop. However, the PC is the one that cannont. I'm not sure what is happening, but I've tried rebooting the PC and unpluging the modem for few seconds, but nothing yet. The Local Area Connection says-"Acquiring network address." And my IP address is currently 0.0.0.0

let me start by saying I have had a horrible time with wireless networks for my PC. I have a PC downstairs and a PC upstairs (they are about 10 feet apart through the floor). The PC downstairs is connected to the router/modem. I recently bought a new gateway adapter (Realtek RTL8185). I installed it and everything was fine. Now my problem is every 2 minutes it disconnects, but then reconnects right back (this is bad news for online gaming). The speed is okay, but I have tried reinstalling and everything. It works fine after a restart, but then it starts to disconnect/reconnect, and then just stop all together.

I've always used ZoneAlarm as my Firewall but I was just now questioning the necessity of it when my OS already provides me with a (FW). XP Prof Would the integrated FW suffice or is there really an adv to having Zone alarm? related question: If my goal was to gain on resources would getting a router eliminate completely my need for a FW?
Thus maybe freeing-up resources?

It all started about a week ago when i upgraded at home from cable modem + router to a Cisco combo provided by the ISP - Cisco EPC2425. We have 5 PC's running locally - 2 physical and 3 wireless, and out of them my PC is the one with the problem, the rest are just fine - i'm typing this from one of the laptops.I run XP Pro SP2 Version 2002. The PC is a E6300 with 2x2GB of DDR2 800 ram, motherboard is Gigabyte EP31-DS3L, and video is a Leadtek 8600GT.I use the same software for close to 2yrs now - only difference is the AV which has been Kaspersky 2010 for 3months.I use the XP firewall.As browsers i use the latest Firefox with NoScript and the latest Opera.The problem was that soon after we put in the new combo my browsers died. Pidgin has issues, Opera actually manages to check a page.I have tried repairing the connection, uninstalling the connection, uninstalling the LAN, disabling noscript, changing my DNS - it is taken automatically from the router and the router has DHCP and i'm not really sure that i managed to change it either, and even reinstalling the OS. Reinstalling the OS seemed to fix the problem, i did not have it for almost 5 days, but all of the sudden, it's back, and it wasn't simply in full effect, it was gradual. It started as pages taking longer to load, having to refresh constantly to get them to work and after a restart, they stopped working altogether, yet Opera is still working - not sure for how long though.MMO's work, WoW and EVE have no issues on the affected PC.I'll try to be a bit more clear. Router was installed, my browsers died, everything that would require a DNS died, and so did pidgin - i use google and MSN on it. I reinstalled the OS, and it worked fine for 5 days, than it started again. Current status is MSN not functioning, Firefox not functioning, Google talk functioning 50% of times, and Opera still functioning - not sure for how long.PS: No, i did not have norton installed.

I used a retail version of XP Upgrade to upgrade my 98SE to XP Home. I activated it. Can I use the same Upgrade to change my son's 98SE to XP? I have him on a network using a cable modem and router. Or must I buy another pgrade specifically for him?
