I am having a problem with my network connection. I have a computer on our corporate network that is attached to a gigabit backbone. When I try browse my network neighborhood, the refresh rate is extremely low. It takes 30 seconds just to expand the workgroup. Internet access is fine, I can surf the net with no problems at all.
I am going to try a new ethernet cable and check the drivers for my built in nic on my MOBO. Does anyone have anything else that they think I should check?
i have a problem with my network folder.It seems that I can't see my existing network connections in the folder! I first noticed this when i click on my dial-up connection the connection window won't come up.When i open the network connections folder in the control panel, an error message comes up with this message:The Network Connections Folder was unable to retrieve the lsit of Network adapters on your machine. Please make sure that the Network Connections service is enabled and running.
a pc with windows xp pro suddenly started not to access the internet or the workgroup it normally worked on. ethernet card is present in hardware devices, network connection says it "is there", the IP numbers etc. are all as they were.I have even tried a rollback to the time it worked fine, but no net
when I browse "My Network Places", the browsing is so incredibly slow. It takes a long while when you click one icon in the “My Network Places” for that to open up and go to the next directory or when just first displaying the computers in “My Network Places”, it goes so slow. I use Windows Workgroup on the LAN to share out internet. Everything else, other than browsing the network, works great. The internet browses nice and fast.
This morning I opened My Network Places while my pc was still loading all the programs at start-up and "My Network Places" was fast. After a few minutes it was back to normal low pace. Now I guess it is something running on my pc slowing it down. Is it maybe to do with XP Service Pack 2? Before installing SP2 the network browsing on my pc is fast, after installing SP2, it is slow. Other computers on the network without SP2 browse the network quite fast. All the pc's on the network has XP Pro.
My Winxp machine cannot access my home network or the internet. If I boot up in Safe mode I have network and internet access, but in regular mode my Nic card shows a limited connection error. The last thing I installed before the nic card stopped working was Symantec Antivirus corporate edtion over the network.
I have tried to remove it, but it needs the network to access the uninstall file. I also tried copying the uninstall file onto the computer and this did not work. And system restore will not work for whatever reason.
I started loading my games onto it. Insert the CD, and Winamp would hiccup. Then, when it actually starts installing whatever game I try, Winamp plays at half speed, pops and hiccups, and becomes unlistenable. Firefox takes between 10 and 30 seconds to load an instance, and typing is slow, and shows up on screen in bursts. Furthermore, even my System sounds (right clicking, for example) become slow and broken.
I cannot access any wireless networks( The wireless is turned on), I cannot access a network via a cat5 cable, but i do get assignes an ip address through dchp. I cannot access the internet when using a usb wireless modem, even though it connects i cannot ping anything or surf any website.
I am running a computer with Windows XP, sp 1 and norton antivirus 2004. I had some bugs on the system Coolweb search or look to 2. Ran hijack and adaware. Went one step to far. I can not access the network or the internet. It worked till I messed with the lsp. Ran lsp fix and what is there is suppose to be. Any ideas, I ran system restore and deleted the network card, no luck, short of reloading windows xp, I am at a loss?
Thanks for any help, buddy is not very happy with me...

I am running WinXP on 4 computers connected together via a LAN using a LinkSys Cable Modem/Router. Each computer was set up to run on the same LAN. Each computer can "see" the Internet. 3 or the 4 computers can see each other and all shared drives and printer on each computer. But one computer, an IBMT40 laptop, consistently has trouble see other computers on the LAN and vice versa. This is a relatively recent problem. For more than a year the T40 ran across this network without any problems; then "network not available" started appearing once a week than once a day and now all the time. The T40 has no trouble seeing specific mapped drives on other computers (mapped before these problems started), but when I navigate through My Network Places | Entire Network | Microsoft Windows Network | LocalLAN, the T40 can see the network name (LOCALLAN) , but when I attempt to navigate further, I get an error message indicating that the LAN is not accessible and I probably do not have access permissions. I have rerun the Network setup wizard on the T40 several times. Everything seems to work, but when I attempt to access the LAN, same problem.
Also, the other 3 computers can see all shared drives on the T40.
I have two PCs. One is having Win XP and another Win server 2003. Now when i access any audio files from the server through XP it playbacks corrupted. It gets scrambled and gives weired high pitch sound.... How can i solve this problem? All other files i can access properly....no problem...
After upgrading from NT 2000 to XP Pro and SP2 connot access network printers .. They can be pinged so no connectivity problem.Tried deleting them then cannot add.Search they show up but when try to add error says wrong printer name or printer not online.One thread said to uninstall network card and wireless card,but this is not a network problem.Local printer is O K.
I have a network running XP Home on 3 laptops and 1 desktop. All computers can use the internet and printers fine. One laptop (IBM) can share files with the desktop but the other 2 laptops (both the same make etc) give the error "The user has not been granted the required login type at this computer" when I try to access them from the desktop or the IBM laptop. All the references to this error message say to go to Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Local Settings but XP Home does not have this option on any of my computers.
My system specs: Win XP Home with SP1.I am having problems connecting to the internet from programs such as msn messenger, mozilla firefox,various ftp programs and updates.Only IE (6.0) and WindowsUpdate are the programs with internet access.When I try to ping on any IP address (except 127.0.0.1), I am getting the error 65:"PING: transmit failed, error code 65." At the time this problem started: 1. the computer had quite a few viruses on it (like DerBiz/Trojan.Win32.Dialer.gp). 2. we tried to install SP2, but it caused problems with ZoneAlarm and system became very slow. So we uninstalled it.
I now cannot access my wireless network in the house. I have a Linksys WRT54G router. The Int, WLAN & Ethernet lights are on. When I get into the home internet connections "details" on my HP, it states "acquiring IP address" and list all 0 (zeros.)
Loaded a fresh install of Win 7 SP3 in a Compaq 5205us desktop. The net interface is recognized, the network connected symbol is there, but I get no access. The 5205us says it needs the ATM network controller.
I'm trying to gain internet access on a wireless network from a PC without a wireless card through a laptop that has a wireless card using an ethernet cable in Windows XP but keep getting limited or no connectivity. It wont let me turn on internet connection sharing on the laptop because 192.168.0.1 is being used by the gateway, what can i do?
I have a laptop here running XP Pro that can login to the network, process/run login scripts, access the internet, mail servers, shared drives and other various network resources however the laptop in question cannot be pinged, accessed or otherwise be seen on the network (i.e.: \LaptopShare$, \IP.ADD.RE.SSShare$; ping IP or host = request timed out) The routing tables look fine, it is authenticating as it should, we've tried two different subnets, releasing and renewing the IP, even used a hard coded IP but the machine could not be pinged or otherwise accessed. I thought maybe the TCP/IP stack might've been corrupted some how so I removed all of the protocols and clients for that NIC however TCP/IP would not disappear from the list. I removed the device from device manager and upon Windows reinstalling the device, after a reboot of course, there was no change. Aside from reimaging the machine, what else do you suggest I try.
1. There is no icon that says the internet is connected in my system tray, even though it is.
2. I can access the Network Connections folder, but there is no connections displayed.
3. When i got to click 'change windows firewall settings' i get an error : Due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display Windows Firewall Settings'.
4. I cant access services.msc, get the following error message: Unable to open service control manager database on.
I am experiencing an odd problem. I have added my pc via a network card and cable to my son's computer. He has broadband access to the internet and the intention was for my pc to be able to share this access. However, I frequently find that my pc will not use the network system to connect to the internet but can only do it via dial up even though my sons's pc is permenantly on and connected. When it does use the network broadband works well.
When I try to access my desktop from my laptop and desktop to laptop, I keep getting a message that says that I do not have access permissions to network resources. I set up my network, enabled file/printer sharing, and configured firewalls to allow the network. My network has been working fine for about a year now until just recently. (I didn't install anything new, and I keep both computers updated everyday.)
this problem is a little tricky to explain.I have 2 computers (A and B) on a home network, connected through a router and hard-wired with Cat5 cable. They are both running Windows XP Pro SP3 and file/print sharing is turned on. Simple file sharing is turned on.Both computers can Ping each other successfully. Both computers can "Net View" each other successfully.Both computers can see the other's shared folders in My Network Places.Computer A can access the shared folders on Computer B and transfer files, etc.
I have a new pc freshly installed with XP SP3. I used it as a server, I shared the two harddrives and mapped them as drive F and G on the network. The sharing and mapping is successfull, however, after a few minutes of being started (or after the pc has been restarted), the sahred folders and harddrives were self-disconnected for unknown reasons. My colleage timed it, and the sharing lasts only 15 minutes after restart then it is disonnected from the network. When i say disconnected - i mean i can't be seen from other PC's connected to the network, i need to restart the pc (again and again) in order for the harddrive and folder sharing is restored. I can say it is disconnected because the sharing icon (a hand with a disk drive on the palm) disappears and other PC's cannot access it.
I recently discovered that something is wrong with my wireless network in my home. Let me start by saying I am not real good with computers, just enough to be dangerous. It's been at least a year ago, but somehow I was able to get my network set up after I got help getting my wireless router (Linksys WRT54GS) set up. I have a desktop and a laptop. First off, I can get internet access on both machines, so I'm good there. The router is wired to the desktop and I connect to the internet wirelessly with the laptop. In layman's terms, here is how I would access my files on one machine from the other when things worked. Once I had the network set up I created a MY NETWORK PLACES shortcut on each machine.
Once opened I somehow created an icon for the folders on the other machine. How I did this I cannot remember. Now, the only tabs showing on the desktop for example are an tab for my router and everything I chose to share on the desktop; nothing for folders to be shared on the laptop like there was. However, right now that's the least of my problems because when I click the tab for VIEW WORKGROUP COMPUTERS I get an error message saying "Jonsnet (my network name) is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The network path was not found." However, when I click MY NETWORK PLACES on the laptop and then VIEW WORKGROUP COMPUTERS I do see a tab for the laptop as well as the desktop, but when I click on the desktop tab I get said error as well.
This applies to a relatively new laptop (Portable1 UX520), with Core Duo Processor 2.0GHZ, Windows XP with frequent and regular system updates (using Windows Updated). I also have Notebook Hardware Control installed, but this problem did not seem to correlate with the install of NHC.
XP boots up totally normally, and I have very few startup applications booting to minimize battery usage. Everything gets booted, and the harddrive stops spinning, applications are accessible...all seems totally normal, except the networking options don't pop up on the system tray, and I can't access the internet with either wireless or wired connections. It takes several minutes (like 3-5) before these icons pop up and I can access the network which, on a laptop that I frequently use for wifi connections, is totall unacceptable.
I have 3 Windows 2000 computers in a network.When I try and access another computer in my network I get this Windows error:(Name of Computer) is not accessible Not enough server storage is available to process this command.All computers in the network have 1GB or more in memory and even after removing all firewalls I get this error.Sometimes after re-starting each computer several times I can connect... but most of the time this error occurs.I'd appreciate it if anyone can give me an idea how to solve this problem.
I have three Windows XP computers and a DG834G ADSL modem on a wireless n/w.Connectivy beween the three computers has slowed to a CRAWL. Internet access is OK.
I have 2 computers I am trying to network together and share a dsl connection. One my wireless laptop everything is fine. On my desktop my connection is very slow I have tried everything I can think of and I am still at a loss. The other thing that is happening is my printer is hooked up to my desktop If I try to print from my laptop on the printer screen it says it is spooling but after about a minute it just drops off and never prints. I am using a Westell versalink modem/Router from verizon. I thought the router was not working right so I took the D-Link router back to best buy and ordered this one from verizon but I am still having the same problem. So the next thing I tried to do was reinstall windows on my Desktop but I am still having problems. If I switched from a hard wired system with my laptop and went wireless would this help. Any help with this problem would be great.
