Access to the wireless network

All of a sudden I can't access my wireless network that I use for this computer for 2 years.  My modem works as I have tested.  But it does not find my wireless network.

Hello

Power Off (Unplug) your Modem (cable, DSL or other type ISP service you are using) and the router and waiting
3 minutes and power and then turn it back on. Then, restart the computer.

Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
obstacles in the path?

Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon. Use a wire or download the drivers on
another computer then transfer them using removable media.

Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

Repeat for card (NIC) network and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
updated drivers.

I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

Make sure you know the details of connection to your router wireless and wired - SSID and password.

You lose connection when you do and have to redo your logon.

  • After that Windows 7 conclusion "No Internet access" in the wireless network?

    I have a USB wireless network card installed in my office. All judging by the "connected network" showed, that he manages to connect to my wireless router, with I can't visit all websites due to "free Internet access". Only if I move my router where (almost) no wall blocking the path between my office and the router, will be solved the problem.

    There is no problems surfing the Internet using my laptop (Windows XP) and the iPad, which also connect to the router.

    I don't know what "No Internet access" while "Connected network" appears. To understand this, perhaps I should know what Windows 7 draws the conclusion "No Internet access" to the wireless network.

    Thank you, everyone. I managed to figure out the problem last night. With this document that I found by Googling, http://www.usb.org/developers/whitepapers/327216.pdf, I tried to disconnect my DVD ROM USB plugged next to my wireless network card and found that this really WORKED, although the DVD ROM is USB 2.0 instead of 3.0.

    In addition, as Shawn "Cmdr" Keene [MVP] said, I really need to I ignore the message "connected network". I ran the Ipconfig/all command frequently and found that sometimes the IP address of my wireless network card was no longer * 192.168.0 and the gateway, and the IP addresses of the DNS servers are null, even if the message "Connected network" remained all the time.

    Hope this helps others who also have this problem, even though my English is not very good. : )

  • T8200: Where physical access to the wireless network adapter

    Hello

    I bought a Tecra 8200. The internal WLAN card does not work. When I activate it with the button on the front of the laptop, nothing happens.
    The card is not recognized by WinXP-> means that it does not appear in Device Manager. It seems that the card is not "under tension".
    However, can someone explain to me how to open Notepad to check if the wiring is correct? I removed all the screws at the bottom of the case, but the keyboard is always aligned with the rest of the laptop, so I can't open it completely.

    Thank you.

  • Local access only on wireless network

    My laptop (Toshiba Satellite L350-203 with Vista SP1 HPE) has lost the ability to connect to the internet using my home network. I have McAfee Internet Security and charge of IE8, but both were present before the problem appeared. My home network is now displayed as 'unidentified public network' and the laptop has "local access only". He seems unable to keep the WEP key for the network as it asks everytime I try to connect. I confirmed that the WEP key is correct. There are 3 other computers in the House that connect without a problem, so I guess that the router is not the source of the anomaly. I tried accessing another network to another place (with any necessary safety information) but get the same result, so that other computers can connect successfully. I am able to access the internet via an account mobile broadband (using a "dongle"), but I added this account after the problem appeared, so once I don't suspect it as being the culprit. Diagnosis in the "network and sharing Center" routines are unable to solve the problem, so any help is most welcome.

    Hello Roy Mac,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

    You receive an error or the error codes when you try to connect?  You're obviously network savy upward so if something seems repetitive please ignore, you tried to delete the location and replace?   Is there any software for the high account mobile broadband that could changed settings?  Are you able to connect to the router with an ethernet cable access to the internet without problem?

    A wireless network uses authentication and encryption to help stay secure. Authentication controls access to the wireless network. Encryption helps to ensure that malicious users cannot determine the contents of wireless data frames.  Windows Vista includes a new wireless network configuration setting. The new setting indicates whether a wireless network is broadcast or not broadcast. You can also use the new configuration setting that a Windows Vista wireless client connects to a non-broadcast network.

    I've added two links below one for Microsoft and one for the installation of networks and networks the Toshiba site.  Please let us know status.   Thank you!

    The software that you used with Windows XP to connect to wireless networks is not compatible with Windows Vista. Alternatively, you can use Windows Vista to configure wireless networks.

    To connect to a wireless network in Windows Vista, follow these steps:

    1. click on Start

    Collapse this includes this image

    , then click on connection to.

    2. click on the wireless network you want to connect, and then click connect.

    Note During the connection process, you may be prompted for a key WEP Wired Equivalent Privacy (). If you do not have this key, contact the network administrator to help wireless.

I go around and try to understand it. Someone at - it information to solve this problem? Both computers are runing Windows XP Pro SP3. My wireless router is a Belkin54g (F5D7230-4V8000)

    You can control a with either wireless network adapter software integrated in Windows XP (or WZC Wireless Zero Configuration) or with software provided by the manufacturer of the card (for example, Intel PROSet/Wireless), but not both at the same time.

    Most, but not all, software configuration wireless no Windows is smart enough to disable WZC automatically.

    There are a few sites that offer "safety tips" for wireless networks which includes 'hide' your wireless network by disabling the SSID broadcast.  This is not a good idea and does not, in fact, your wireless security.  See http://blogs.technet.com/b/steriley/archive/2007/10/16/myth-vs-reality-wireless-ssids.aspx if you have disabled broadcast SSID of your router, automatic configuration won't be able to find it.

    I get a message that the network is secure, and the second computer guard trying to acquire an address, but will not acquire an address

    If you have enabled encryption wireless router (a very good idea), you will need to enter the correct password in order to connect a find an IP address. What type of wireless encryption configured on the router?

    This second computer using Windows to configure the Wi - Fi connection and was working fine until I tried to connect the Dell laptop upward. Then the IBM laptop cannot acquire an address.

    You have changed something else.  The idea of a wireless network is to allow multiple computers to connect; connection to a computer shouldn't affect how another computer connects.

    The easiest way is to configure your router to connect a computer using an Ethernet cable (if you connect wireless, you will be disconnected when you make a change to the configuration of the router wireless).  For the Belkin router User Guide is here--> http://cache-www.belkin.com/support/dl/p74559-f_f5d7230-4v8xxx_manual.pdf

    Open a web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.) and type 192.168.2.1 in the address box.  You should get to the home page of the router. Click on the "Login" link at the top.  The default password for the router is blank (no password) unless you changed it.

    Click on the link "Channel and SSID" under the heading "wireless" on the left side of the page.

    • Make sure that there is to check the "Broadcast SSID"
    • "Wireless mode" should be "g only" or "fashion g and b" (the latter is necessary only if you have a very old b wireless adapter in one of your computers)
    • I suggest you let off QoS (but click on "more info" or see what says the User Guide)
    • The wireless channel should be 1, 6 or 11.  If you have no difficulties, let him you will find
    • "Protected mode" should be off (but click on "more info" or see what says the User Guide)
    • If you make changes, click on "Apply Changes".

    Click on the 'Security' line under the heading "wireless".  You should be able to see both what type (if any) encryption is configured (64-bit WEP, 128-bit WEP, WPA, or WPA2) and the password (if any).  Unless your computer maps are old, you should use WPA2.  If the adapter in one or more of your computers is too old to be capable of WPA2, use WPA.  Regardless of the bit, WEP length, is easily broken.

  • Router E4200, cannot secure the wireless network

    When my E4200 wireless network appears on a discovery list of wireless networks, there a padlock beside him in devices (like my Xbox and iPhone) that who would use to show that it is a wireless network, requiring a password. When I use my Xbox to connect wireless now, he said: "you connect to an unsecured network. Are you sure you want to continue? »

    I used the web portal to select 'Factory Reset' of my router. I also told my iPhone to forget and not automatically connect wireless network. After factory reset, I went to the configuration section of the web page wireless network access router, put a new name for the wireless network, personal WPA2 enabled for 2.4 and 5 GHz networks, developed a completely new password for two I had never used before and then looked for the network on my iPhone. I chose it and it connected right away without asking for a password. Still once, the network does not appear with a padlock next to him in the list of devices to the network from my iPhone WiFi and my XBox says always that this is an unsecured network.

    When using my internet browser to access router, WiFi networks are both classified as WPA2 Personal and each has a password in the password box (and Yes, I recorded the changes - that's what it shows even if I disconnect and then reconnect to the router access.) I tried to remove the power cord for 30 seconds and plug in again and there is no change.

    It's quite a recent change, like maybe the last week or more. I don't know if there was a firmware update or what - my router is configured for auto updates and when I click to check the latest updates, it says that there are no more updates available.

    TL; Dr: said access my router my wireless security is turned on. None of my wireless devices see as secure WiFi networks and each of them can connect without having to type a password.

    Do a reset factory and set up from scratch.

    If this fails, try this:

    Manually download the FW file to the local office of PCs.
    Reset the router, use IE or FF with all security disabled add-ons, load the FW file and let you treat.
    Factory reset the router once more and set up from scratch.

    It comes on it comes up with the error message:

    Question: You have manually entered the name of the network (SSID) cannot be found.
    Solution: Check that your wireless router is powered. When to manually enter the name of your network (SSID), make sure you enter exactly including upper and lower case and spaces.

  • HP Photosmart B109: cannot connect the printer to the wireless network

    I have some setting wrong my printer for wireless printing. It has worked well in the past, but with my new macbook air - this isn't.

    I can't access the function where to add the printer to the wireless network (my router does not support WPS so his password WPA).

    I remember setting this up on a PC - easy with the driver provided by HP, but on the Mac, the configuration tool does not appear to be a function where I add the printer to the wireless network - and HP did not provide a driver, because it is supposed to work with the mac built-in software.

    The manual says only: "follow the instructions on the screen", but the printer does not have instructions on how to connect - on-screen tests, only that it is connected...

    Anyone who knows how to add the printer to a wireless network?

    Hello @Joahkim!

    Welcome to the HP community!

    I understand that you have a problem to set up all-in-one printer wireless HP Photosmart (B109n) with your new MacBook Air OS x 10.10. I want to help you with this.

    Have you changed your router or your password since the MacBook Air? If this is not the case, your printer can still be connected to the network and the trickiest part of that place will be done for us already.

    We will print a Network Configuration report to see if it is connected:

    • On the Control Panel, press the button next to Scan. The Scan/Wireless menu.
  • Problems connecting to the internet using the wireless network connection

    I can't connect to the internet using my wireless network connection. I had made the diagnosis and he stated that "the DHCP is not enabled for the wireless network connection. I had checked the DHCP, but it has been activated!... Someone would give any suggestion for me to solve the problem?

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type services.msc and press enter . Search The Client DHCP and check if it is enabled or disabled. If disabled then turn it on and see if the problem still persists or not.

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type cmd , and press enter . At the command prompt, type ipconfig/all and press ENTER. Now, check the IP address, default gateway, DNS etc. If you find all the information is correct, but you cannot yet access the Internet so if you connect the wireless network is secure or not. To determine the glance to the wireless network icon in the taskbar, then click on it. It will show you the available wireless networks. If there is a "yellow shield" present on the network icon, the network is not guaranteed, if there is no "yellow shield" does while the network is secure. In a secure network, you might have a "network security key. In this case try to disable the 'Network security key' option for this network. To do this:

    Open Control Panel , click network and Internet , click network and sharing Center , click manage wireless networks on the left.

    In the list select the wireless network and do a right click, select Properties, Security disable tab all options that is, in security type do not select no authentication (Open) and to the type of encryption , select none . You can also activate the automatic connection and SSID settings to further enhance connectivity, on the connection tab, click to select the "connect automatically if this network is in range " and "check boxesto connect even if the network is broadcasting his name (SSID) .

    For more information click here and see how you can determine whether a network is secure or not.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/how-do-I-know-if-a-wireless-network-is-secure

    If the problem still persists, then check your firewall settings and make sure that the firewall is not blocking your Internet connection. Some software Antivirus has a built-in firewall and they block by default all unknown connection to the tightening of security.

    Try to restore Windows Firewall default settings. Open Control Panel click on network and Internet , click system and security , click Windows Firewall , click default settings .

    Hope this will help. Thank you.
