Alienware M17x no network connection

I can't any internet connection on my M17x. wireless or wired, it says Internet access but cannot find all pages when I try to go to Yahoo or such. I tried to restart, opening to the top of my network domestic, so it is not secure on that temporarily, etc.. All other computers in the House are fine (2 laptops and desktop computers wired computers 2). When I try to run the troubleshooter, sometimes he says no problem found, other times he says that there is a problem with my modem to broadband. I don't think this is true, since the other 4 computers are working properly, but I tried to restart my modem and my wireless router. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

He solved. The only thing I did recently was to install an upgrade for my ZoneAlarm security system. I uninstalled ZoneAlarm completely and booted in safe mode with network and got cable internet connections and wireless! I restarted in normal and re-installed mode ZoneAlarm site and it still works fine.

  • Only intermittent problem with wifi on alienware m17x with qualcomm wireless killer

    Hi, I have an alienware M17x with windows 8.1 and qualcomm wireless killer. I have a serious problem with intermittent wifi, that appears when I use programs like Skype, steam, multiplayer games, etc.

    Even if the wifi is connected, the connection suddenly stops working sometimes, especially when I use the applications mentioned above. (if I try to load a Web page during this time, the page remains attached to "resolving host"). Strange thing is if I disconnect and reconnect to the wifi Internet starts working immediately. Or I can wait a few minutes and the connection is re-established automatically. This isn't a problem with the network, because I had this problem on countless wifi networks I've worked, and all my other devices work fine in the same time, that my laptop no longer works.

    Additionally, this problem occurs only on wifi, if I use a connection cable, this never happens. (this is not yet a case of the wifi signal strength, as happens even when I am sitting right next to wifi router and wifi in the notification area icon is visible full signal).

    In the last months, I tried various possible solutions, but none of them have solved this problem:

    -Updated to 8.1 windows

    -Update of the qualcomm network drivers

    -Stop of various applications that I think might have been the origin of the problem

    -Uninstall completely different applications

    -Close all anti-virus programs

    Still after all of these steps, the problem persists. It would not be a big problem, as the loss of connectivity is not permanent, but what makes multiplayer games completely unplayable on my alienware machine. :(

    Just today I tried to launch AlienAutopsy test for my network card in Killer Wireless - N 1103 several times, and each time that the "transfer of data verification test" failed due to no connectivity (all other tests passed very well, only this one test failure all 6 times). I thought that it could be linked and gave me some hope that I might be able to target the cause of this unique problem. Therefore, I post here. If anyone can help me, it would be much appreciated!

    +++ S.O.L.U.T.I.O.N. +++

    at bost performance I had the USB AE2500 adapter, when I plug in the Device Manager recognize as "Unknown device" and no matter what I do on the Web, nor what I download Linksys it used to recognize and install the adapter.

    When I thought that maybe the adapter is broken, I have a 4 year old with win7 lenovo machine that had no problem what so ever grateful and the installation of the adapter and conect to my 5 GHz Wireless.

    in a nut shell it annoyed me.

    If there is a solution out there, please, point me in the right direction

  • R4 SERIOUS Alienware M17x adapter issues

    I had the typical Alienware M17x R4 "connected load does not," since I bought this laptop. I spent almost $3 k on this thing, and I've been through THREE Dell OEM 240 Watt adapters because of this problem. These things are expensive, like $100 a piece. Whenever I have buy a (I have more warranty) the problem goes away for about 2-3 months, then comes back. He arrived at the point where it's good now I write this on 70% battery, and I can't get it fixed.

    Usually, when I boot it says "the card is not taken in charge, blah blah blah, please press F2 for boot menu"

    And I usually get this screen:

    Usually I would disconnect and reconnect my adapter in all 20 times until he finally said a/c Adapter Type: [240W]

    but it is blocked to [Unknown] once again, and this time it isn't give.

    I tried all the recommended methods.

    1: I emptied the power to remove adapter, battery, and freezes for a minute, then plugging power back. I did about 6 times, and it always starts up an adapter not recognized.

    2: I tried to unplug and plug the adapter cord

    3: I tried to use different ankles

    4: I tried to reinstall the BIOS A12 several times, does not

    5: I tried uninstalling the driver for ACPI compliant battery check, still nothing

    6: I tried to run ePSA assessment of seed, which tells me that this:

    That my battery is charging to 255 Watts instead of 240 Watts.

    7: I tried to replace my battery and my card. Several times. 1 warranty, the rest of my pocket.

    8: I tried to let the computer stay off for a while, cool completely.

    9: I tried to update all my drivers.

    I am completely out of options, the only thing is to possibly replace my motherboard, which would be ridiculous that this is going to be long and costly. I'll probably just have to take my business elsewhere I got extremely poor support just because my warranty has expired. I won't pay $300 for another year of warranty, so that they can work on the setting of a defective product.

    I just want to know if you have any suggestions where to go from here? If it's fixable?

    If not, what other phones would you recommend that would not have this problem?

    Hello

    It seems that you tried all recommend them troubleshooting procedures for this type of problem. We believe that it is a problem with the motherboard, since you've already tried to use different adapters. For this type of repairs, we recommend that you check with ztronics.com.

  • Alienware M17x R4 Support

    I'm having a problem with an Alienware M17x r4. My daughter was in the middle of a PC game, and he is just off. Before turning it off, she said his battery was about to die, but she had a few minutes of life. She first thought it was just the battery, so she hooked up and we have nothing. I noticed that the green light on the power cord was not on so I unplugged the power cord and plugged. The light going on, and then it will slowly go away. I bought a new charger and plugged. The blue light until I plug it into the computer. The only way to get the light back on is to unplug the wall and plug it in again. The light stays on as long as I don't plug it into the laptop. I read about this on another site. Someone said it was the motherboard. Is this true?

    Unfortunately, so it is my daughter's cell phone if it was something funny in the days before, she said. I remember the fan if extremely hard, the other night (that was a first). The laptop is on, but she was not using it at the same time. She used again at night until it no longer works and said that happens again. I checked the fans to see if they were dirty and they weren't too bad. Them cleaned anyway, I'm not sure if it really solved the problem of fan until I can put it back on.

    If this is not the motherboard, what else should I check before I have pay fortunes to fix? I bought it refurbished almost 2 years ago for about $1,300. You know everything, just not if it should be fixed or not, but I'd not really to buy another if I need to.

    I tried troubleshooting and sought a similar problem here before posting but could not find one. Sorry if this is a duplicate question.

    Thanks for your help!

    This looks more like a case where the video card is dead.

    It is a common symptom in our computers. When the charger goes dim when you are connected to the computer, it's probably a problem with the video card.

    We have only on workstations as well.

    I hope you find this information useful.

  • Sierra periodically drops network connection

    I installed Sierra last night.  For the third time today, I was told that I was not connected to the internet.  The first two times I have recycled my modem and returned.  This time, before that I did, the system which I would put in sleep after that I lost the internet, woke up spontaneously and I was connected. And now, the same thing that happened to me last night also happens to know that after you put the system to sleep, in a few seconds, he wakes up immediately without doing me anything. (Which had itself set last night, but now it is again).  No doubt these two are related?

    No idea what is happening and how to solve this problem, so it doesn't continue to occur?  Thank you.

    Tonight after the system into sleep, I woke it and again, for the fourth time today, I have had no network connection.  I waited a while and was connected again. So I think that there is something of how Sierra handles sleep taking offline or something similar.  I always hope that someone here can help with advice about what to do to fix this problem.  Thank you.

  • Why El Capitan 10.11.6 wonder to accept incoming network connections to iTunes12.5.1?

    WHENEVER I'm starting iTunes12.5.1, I wonder by El Capitan "do you want the application"iTunes.app"to accept incoming network connections?

    "Authorized" it the first time, why is it happen again?

    This isn't a small problem of snitch I deleted all the rules of LS for iTunes. Start iTunes and get two windows permissions. The small window reproduced every time I restart iTunes.

    I reinstalled the OS X 10.11.6 and downloaded iTunes from the iTunes site and reinstalled. I always get the menu 'accept' whenever I start iTunes.

  • Why do block/allow the python network connections?

    Whenever I restart my computer, I get a popup window asking me to deny/allow incoming network connections to python.app. I checked my firewall settings and they are configured to allow incoming network connections. How can I fix so I did not have these messages?

    Create a new account and start in this account. If the problem persists, it may be another application is triggering demand or maybe it's that the firewall application is causing the problem. Function where and how you use your mac OS firewall may not be necessary.

  • TimeCapsule loses network connection

    I have a TimeCapsule (new version of turn 2014) and I noticed that my backups are not being every hour. Utility app showed 'device not found' on the network.  I restarted the time capsule - it connects to the network successfully for about 3 minutes and then "Device Not Found".  I restarted my TimeWarner cable modem then restarted TC even question.  My wifi router is the TimeWarner modem and I have 60MB of speed that I'm guaranteed up to 50MB, so all right from the internet side.

    I did a soft reset... same question.  I did a hard reset and used the previous settings - same issue (3 minutes network, and then click device not found a few moments later).  I guess I can do a default network but since absolutely no changes to the network settings have work probably months (7 + months) I don't see why this would happen.  I don't want to lose my entire backup (s) risk is... I have no other way to save my December 2015 MBP.  * Funny, it is the TC network shows, if I hit him "save now" finds TC but TC for 3 minutes then turns off network; However, the backup actually occurs successfully. But will not back up again until I restart then the TC on the network these 2-3 minutes before losing the connection.  Help.

    I have a MBP 15 mid-2015 "and capital El v10.11.6.  My TC etc are all up to date on the versions of software too!

    Many users have posted on the forum with the same number of "Device not found" in the last days. Looks like almost every new post is about it. This is one of a few minutes there are, for example:

    TimeCapsule loses network connection

    Rumor has it that the 10.11.6 recent update is part or all of the problem, according to the opinion.

    The "fix" of the day is to disable Back to My Mac in AirPort Utility, that seems to work for users who have helped with my Mac. Of course, you lose functionality when you do this.

    No solution yet for users who do not use Back to My Mac, because they cannot turn off something they did not.

    Apple is silent, not so much we can do until Apple recognizes that there is a problem (which they are not since yesterday when I spoke to them).

    Stay tuned.

  • Firefox cannot connect to a local server subdomain if no available network connection.

    Hello

    I have a laptop that is configured as a local server using Apache. On this, I use "localhost" as the domain and have several subdomains.
    Now, if I have no network connection (to any other device) available on this laptop, and then with Firefox I am only able to access the domain 'localhost', but none of the subdomains and get a "Server not found" error on these. If I have a network connection, I can access the domain and subdomains with no problems.

    What it could be and what can I do to make it work without a network connection?
    I also tried with Opera and Chrome, and they can access subdomains anyway.
    Unfortunately however I prefer Firefox, then Yes... I am here.

    Kind regards

  • network connection is not available when using the photos on apple tv

    While using Apple TV and pictures, I get a message that says don't: no available network connection.  I check other programs and they have an available network connection and all is well.  This happens intermittently, but once it happens, you will need to restart the apple tv several times and I hope that solves the problem.  I use icloud photo library and I am trying to access my photos.  Is this a known issue?

    This could be one of those cases where the message is just a generic "connection failed" message. So he doesn't mean what he says, just that it cannot connect to the server iCloud.

    Together there is automatic DNS in your network ATV settings?

    Are you sure that there is no interference from WiFi? If there is no interference, a reboot should be enough.

    When photos fails, you can use another application that uses the internet?
