Adding a Mac laptop to the network... does not connect

I admit that I suck at the implementation of wireless networks and I am a silly when it comes to Mac and compatibility, so bear with me.

I have configured my WRT54GS router dated in our apartment and it connected very well with my desktop running XP.  I set up the WEP keys and gave it to my roommate so that she could access as well.  She's on a new Mac laptop. She typed in the key correctly (the key worked for me) and she gets only a message "cannot connect".  No error message, just that the connection has failed.   My office is running on wireless too (the LILY is in the living room) so I tend to think that this isn't our DSL modem or the router.

I have to install LELA on his laptop so he can connect?  If so, can I download the driver from the website? In addition, what its firewall blocking the connection?

Thank you.

  • A PC on the network does not connect to internet

    This has proved to be very difficult.  A PC on my network has been to connect to the internet.  I thought it was because I installed a new router, especially when I moved the PC to connect directly to my cable modem - when he was working.  But I also thought that upgrading to Windows 7 from WP would take away any problem on the PC - but it didn't.  Thus, with the help of an expert on a Linksys forum, I've implemented (to my satisfaction anyway) is not a router problem.  Indeed his inspection of ipconfig/all and stuff has shown that everything was normal with this PC as well as others.  The PC collects the IP address, etc., it is simply not receiving data from the internet.  I had already checked that it was not a firewall, using Norton Uninstaller issue to ensure that everything was gone.  The network adapter works and I've updated the driver.  I have since also rolled back to XP for doing the same thing and still nothing.

    The expert from my router comment was "well, the IP of the computer configuration is correct and the router works as you have other computers that connect to the internet via the router. It seems that if the installation of Windows has serious problems on this computer. I suggest that ask you in a Microsoft forum on how to reset the configuration of the network on your computer to make it work again. So far I would say that it is not a problem with the router or caused by the router. »

    The only thing I would add is that system restore has failed for a while on this PC.  Of course I would have used it to try to solve this problem, but I can't.  I tried various fixes for whom these for one, there included opening in SafeMode etc, but nothing worked.

    Help please!

    Hi, sorry bit slow on this - alert does not.  The answer would have been wired and Wireless does not, but I just reinstalled a Linksys network adapter and hey presto it works!  I haven't been back to try the wired LAN but guess it still does not.  So I think that the diagnosis of network card is OK but incorrectly excluded earlier because the PC said that he was OK and wireless did not work either at this time.  But I guess it's possible that uninstall and then reinstall the Linksys may have released something somehow.  BTW I had disabled the native Windows Firewall also.  Was it wrong?

  • 114 the desire does not connect to Asus all-in-one wireless but connects to the wireless network

    I just bought my HP ENVY 114 e all-in-one last week and I tried to connect it to my computer (Asus all-in-one Windows 7 64-bit) and while he wil connect to my wireless very well my computer (or my cell phone which is also an Asus running windows 7 64 - bits) cannot identify it.

    Using the disc doesn't help nor did try manually to add in 'Add printer' in my computer and all the interest to get this particular printer was because it was wireless. If I have to plug in a USB key then I have saved money and bought a less expensive model. All my devices are on the same network, and their firewalls is turned off so that it does not hinder the process.

    When you browse the drive Assembly he asks the IP and I get it exactly as it is on the screen printer that I even printed it out and double checked 5 times and it was exactly the same, but he keeps asking for me to be reintroduced to it since the computer cannot identify the printer.

    Any help would be great I prefer not to have to pack up this thing and take it back...

    Unfortunately, the router and the printer do not get along at this stage.  The IP address changes too often and it is possible that the router has its own firewall.  A large number of firewalls, outside the Windows Firewall, sees a lot of traffic from hpnetworkcommunicator.exe and blocks preventing the software to find the printer.

    I saw this model of router and it doesn't have a built-in firewall.  Unfortunately, I could not see their manual without you register on the site.

    It may be preferable to set a static IP address for the printer in the router's routing table.  To do this, you acceding to EWS the router.  If you don't know how to set the printer's IP address in the router, you can try to contact the vendor of the router.

    Otherwise, I would recommend checking the firewall of the router.  I saw a router cause problems with an overactive firewall in place.

    If you happen to have an extra router around, you can try to use it instead of Paul's to confirm that it is the router.

    EDIT

    You can try to put a static IP address on the front of the printer.  I'm personally not too successful with setting a static IP address on the front panel when the SAP does not load, but this could be one of those cases where it does not.

    First, print a Network Setup page by going to Configuration > Wireless > Network Configuration > print Network Configuration.

    Then, go to settings > network > IP settings > change to the manual.

    Once it is replaced by the manual, it should allow the IP address, default gateway and the subnet mask.  Use the subnet mask and default gateway of the print network configuration.  Use an IP address that is not in use on the network.  You can change the last number of the IP address on the print.  For example, 192.168.1.50 could be converted to 192.168.1.250.

    Setting a static IP address on the front panel does not set servers DNS which is necessary for ePrint operate on this printer.  Now that the static IP address has been set on the front panel of the printer, try to access the SAP by entering the IP address that comes to be defined in a browser address bar.  If the printer load, you should be able to set DNS servers and be ready to go from there.

  • My laptop with Windows Xp does not connect to the internet, please help me!

    Then my laptop, as indicates it works on Windows Xp, but even if I'm supposed to be connected to my home network, when I run Internet Explorer, it can not connect to internet. Any help and insight will help. Please help me!

    I'm sorry that had to retype all of this, but in essence, that everything indicates that things work correctly with your Internet connection.

    To translate, the first bit tells us that your router assigned your computer 192.168.0.12 IP address.  The own IP address of the router is 192.168.0.1

    The result of ping 127.0.0.1 indicates that your computer can communicate with itself (the adapter is OK)

    The 192.168.0.12 ping result indicates that your computer can communicate with your router (that we already knew because otherwise your computer don't would not have been assigned an IP address).  It also means that you are connected to your local network.

    The result of the ping 192.168.0.1 is similar to the 127.0.0.1 test.

    And finally, the ping Google result shows that you are able to access the Internet.

    Knowing all this, you probably need to reset TCP/IP or Winsock, or both.

    Manually:

    Open a command prompt window and type

    netsh winsock reset {enter}
    netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt

  • Remote Desktop in the network does not work

    First time VPN newbie. I need to set up the vpn for a small company of friends using RV082 so, as a test, I put up here at home using a very basic configuration. The network topology looks like:

    Cloud-online cable modem => RV082-online-online PC win7 DIR655

    On a remote site, I launch QUICKVPN, enter the necessary data and connect. Setting up the Office remotely and put the IP address of my pc at home and the user name to logon and after a minute or two, he says "unable to connect to the computer" (or words to that effect). My home PC has been configured to allow remote desktop connections and this has happened in the past, but not since the installation of RV082. There is nothing in the logs of the PC, or in the newspapers of the RV082. What should be my line of inquiry?
