Backup Vista network wireless on PC Client

I've seen many comments in this regard, but fail to find a clear solution.

The scenario...

My Vista Premium client is wired to a modem/router ADSL Wireless.  The customer has a second 1 TB HARD drive installed to be used only for backups.  The issue is trying to save a Vista laptop wireless using the Vista backup program in system tools.  Both computers use the same workgroup name.

I have created a shared folder on the backup drive called "laptop".  All actions necessary and safety issues are resolved.  I can create a file on the laptop and send it in without a problem drive backup destination folder.  When you run the Vista backup program, it creates a shot and then fails on the transfer immediately complain of not being able to access the folder (which is the correct path).  I have to admit, even getting to this point has been a task.  Understand the actions, security issues and password problems.  This is clearly a problem with the backup program, and I think probably related to security issues regarding the backup authentication protocol.  There, someone has a solution, and I sure can't find it around Ms.  It's funny how W7 doesn't have this problem.

Note: once the boot minimum finished troubleshooting, move the computer to a normal startup, boot is just to make sure there are no other software interfering

Method 3: I suggest you disable temporary or uninstall your antivirus program and firewall programs and try again transfer the backup on the network location.   See the following links: Vista backup and Restore Center no backup to the network location

  • Results of Toshiba Connectivity Doctor or Vista network & sharing Center

    I bought a 802.11n router to allow additional coverage of my Toshiba with a 802.11n Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN give me and I never seemed to get the extra than I expected! I tried etc. Since a few weeks I got the laptop, and was beginning to lose patience and hope of ever is it solved, however I just noticed something that only confused me even further!

    I always use the connection to a network/network and sharing centre within Vista OS under my control, "connection status" of my networks etc. & it has never showed that the network which should give me ' isn't a 'g '! But earlier I found and used the Toshiba connectivity doctor, and I found it is sometimes shows the connection as a 'n', but still the Vista "connect to a network & Vista network and sharing Center" show the same broadcasting as a 'g '!

    What should I take as the most accurate, I have little additional coverage when I used to have a portable 'g' and a router 'g', but perhaps remotely an additional 2 meters which, depending on how wonderfully better is the "n" does not seem to live up to the expectation!

    I based my results of the exact coverage, physician connectivity Toshiba or Vista network sharing Center, they can be opened at the same time and showing the different results? I do not understand why they say different things? Crikey Ca? s driving me crazy!

    Hi friend

    already tried INTEL drivers? Theres a special broadcast of the site just about your wireless card, so if you please, visit this site and download the drivers from here:

    http://support.Intel.com/support/wireless/WLAN/4965AGN/

    Maybe it s just a driver related problem. And another suggestion: use a single program to connect to wireless networks. Maybe they cause some internal conflicts in the system which turns off the feature n.

    Oh, and Don t forget to check the properties of the device manager/network on some technical parameters. Perhaps, it must be explicitly enabled, also on your router.

  • If I enable security on an ad hoc network, my Windows 7 client cannot recognize the network at all.

    XP host and client windows 7 on ad - hoc network...
    Dear friends, I have set up an ad hoc network between two laptops. The host is running on xp sp3 and the client is running windows 7.
    Now the problem is that if I enable security on the network, the client windows 7 cannot recognize the network at all.
    If I turn off security on the network ad-hoc, everything works fine and I can share files and access the internet on client... Please help

    Ok

    Now, I'm pretty sure that I understand your game up. Well done to get the internet connection, sharing of work (not a simple process) but without encryption.

    I am sure that the problem lies in the Windows 7 laptop (laptop 2). When you switch cell 1 to WEP, you must also pass portable 2 to WEP and provide the WEP key you have configured with laptop 1.

    It's getting late here now, but I'll try to answer tomorrow after I have test it on my two laptops to Windows 7. In the meantime maybe I can point you in the right direction...

    • Right-click the the small icon at the bottom right of your screen on laptop network 2 and then click on Open Network and Sharing Center
    • In network and sharing Center, click on manage networks wireless (nearby at the top left)
    • Click Add, and follow the wizard to create an ad hoc network, selecting WEP and providing the encryption key you configured on the notebook 1
    • Save the network so that you do not have to repeat this procedure.

    Otherwise, when you get to manage wireless networks, if your ad hoc network is already listed...

    • Right-click in your ad hoc network, and then click Properties
    • Click the Security tab
    • Change it to WEP and provide the encryption key
    • Click OK

    Good luck, I will pick up this new after my drowsiness.

    I have a new laptop at home which has windows xp sp 2 is installed.  I am trying to connect to my wireless network.
    I get the following error;
    The network password needs to be 40bits or 104bits depending on your network configuration.  This can be entered as 5 or 13 ascii or 26 hexadecimal characters.

    I gave my father a new laptop computer this fall and he gave me one that had given him his friend... I've never worked with XP Pro...

    We have several other phones on this account wireless at home.

    You try to login with the wrong encryption method and you have this implemented extremely secure wireless network.

    Have a computer connected to the router with an ethernet cable. Examples given are for a Linksys router. See the manual of your router or the router mftr's Web site. for the parameters by default if you don't have a Linksys. Open a browser such as Internet Explorer or Firefox and in the address bar type:

    http://192.168.1.1 [Enter] (it is default IP address of the router, which varies from router to router then check your manual)

    This will bring you to the login screen of the router. The default username is blank and the Linksys default password is "admin" without the quotes. Enter this information. You are now in the configuration of the router utility. Your configuration utility may be slightly different from mine. The first thing to do is to change the default password because * all * known default passwords for different routers.

    Click the Administration link at the top of the page. Enter your new password. MAKE A NOTE SOMEWHERE THAT YOU WILL NOT LOSE. Re-enter the password to confirm it, and then click Save settings at the bottom of the page. The router will reboot and show you the box of connection again. Do not fill in the user name and put it in your new password to enter the configuration utility.

    Now, click on the link wireless at the top of the page. Change the network name (SSID) wireless by default to something, you'll recognize. I suggest that my clients not use their surname as the SSID. For example, you might want to name your network wireless network "CastleAnthrax" or similar. ;-)

    Click on save settings and when you get the prompt that your changes were successful, click the wireless security link which is just beside the Basic Wireless Settings link (where you changed your SSID). Most computers purchased during the last 4 years have the wireless hardware that will support WPA2-Personal (also known as WPA2-PSK). This is the desired encryption level. If your wireless hardware is older, use WPA. Don't use WEP, because who is easily broken within minutes. So go ahead and set the Security Mode WPA2-Personal. Do this and enter a password. For example, you could use the password ' here be dragons, beware you scurvy dogs! The password is what you enter on all computers that are allowed to connect to the wireless network. MAKE A NOTE SOMEWHERE THAT YOU WILL NOT LOSE.

    At this point, your router is set up and if the computer that you use to configure the router will normally connect wireless, disconnect the ethernet cable and wireless of the computer should see your new network. Enter the password that you have created (exactly as you wrote it with all capital letters and punctuation) to join the network and start surfing. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • How to install Photosmart B109n-z on a DHCP network wireless

    I'm trying to install a HP Photosmart B109n-z on a wireless network.

    There is no DHCP server on the network.

    I can install and print using a USB cable.

    When I try to reconfigure the display of the USB wireless I get a message that says printer

    use the IP 169.254.95.189 which is not compatible with the address IP of the PC 10.1.9.1.

    HP documentation * recommends * using a DHCP server. So I guess it's * possible * for

    do without. But I have found no instruction to do so.

    There is a related announcement with the following title:

    > Resolved: Photosmart B109n-z - setting a static IP address on the printer on an active DHCP server router
    > 04/01/2010-11:24

    That the display shows:

    > Type the IP address in a browser.  You will see the internal settings of the printer.

    But when I go to http://169.254.95.189 I have a connection delay.

    169.254.95.189 ping succeeds. When I run a tool of command ' arp - a', I can see the printer.

    The above has been done using a Windows Vista-based computer. To get a second opinion, I started a Linux machine

    and did a ping 169.254.95.189. Which failed. Then I did a

    > Add a route - host 169.254.95.189 gw 10.1.6.1

    10.1.6.1 where is my wireless router. Then ping succeeds but looking upward of http://169.254.95.189

    still gives a timeout.

    So my main question is: how to set up printing on a DHCP-less network wireless.

    And a second question: the printer is supposed to listen on TCP port 80 (http) or a magic

    necessary to turn on.

    IP STATIC ASSIGNMENT HOWTO FOR HP PHOTOSMART B109n-z

    The following instructions allow to assign a static IP address on an HP Photosmart
    Printer B109n-z without using a DHCP server, and without using a router. The
    statements can also be used for other types of printer setup.

    Necessary equipment:
    -A HP Photosmart B109n-z printer
    -A computer with a wireless network card

    Laptops usually have a wireless network card. Stationary computers
    usually not.

    1 BACKGROUND

    B109n-z has four ways to communicate with others:
    (1) there are buttons and a small screen on his forehead.
    (2) it can print and scan pages
    (3) there is a USB connection
    (4) it has wireless capabilities.

    We will use (1), (2) and (4) to set a static IP address.

    2 BUTTONS AND DISPLAY

    If you're reading this, chances are that you tried to install the B109n-z and that
    the installation failed. The installation may have left the B109n-z partially
    set up, so the first step is to bring the B109n-z to its initial settings.

    On the front of the B109n-z there is a small screen. To the left of the
    It is a column of three buttons. To the right of the screen, it
    is a column in addition to three buttons.

    In fact, the buttons are just touching sensitive areas next to the screen. Each
    button's background light that the printer can turn on and off. During the
    light behind a button is disabled, the button is invisible.

    The buttons in the left column are labeled with an arrow to the rear, an 'X' and
    a symbol "OK." The buttons on the right hand column are all labelled with dashes.
    To the market, the screen displays something like this:
    Scan
    Photo
    Copy

    The background light of all three buttons in the right-hand column are on. Now press
    the button to the right of "Scan", i.e. the highest button in the right column.
    Now, the screen displays something like this:
    Wireless menu
    The scan to PC
    Scan to memory card

    Now, press the button to the left of the menu "wireless" to get this:
    Turn off wireless
    Wireless configuration
    WPS

    This option enables the radio into the printer. The screen comes down to this:
    Turn off wireless
    Wireless configuration
    WPS

    Now press the button next to "Wireless Setup", then press
    the lower right button until something like 'restore wireless settings' is
    selected. Then press 'OK' (the button at the bottom left) and answer 'Yes' to 'are '.
    "ensure that" issues. Now, it comes down to this:
    Enable wireless
    Wireless configuration
    WPS

    Finally, if the wireless radio is turned off, turn on the radio wireless with the help of the
    button at the top right.

    Now, the radio of the printer is on, the printer has an IP address of 0.0.0.0, as well as the
    printer Wireless Announces that he runs a computer-to-computer wireless
    (ad hoc) network without security. The SSID of the network is "hpsetup".

    3. CONNECT TO THE PRINTER, STEP 1

    Now, you need a computer with a wireless interface card. Ensure that the computer is
    on. If the computer runs windows, ask for a list of available wireless
    networks. If she runs something else, do something similar.

    In the list of available wireless networks, you should find a named
    "hpsetup". Connect you to it. Ignore the warning that the network "hpsetup" is
    situation of insecurity.

    If there is more than one network named "hpsetup", one of them will be your
    printer and the others can be printers in your neighborhood. Those of other
    could also be the work of airborne viruses that have infected your neighbors
    computer.

    4. PRINTING CONFIGURATION

    If you followed the instructions above, the display will show this:
    Enable wireless
    Wireless configuration
    WPS

    Select "Wireless configuration", let "print the network configuration page.
    selected, then press OK. The printer now prints a page that says things like
    this:
    IP address: 169.254.95.189
    Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0

    5. CONNECTION TO THE PRINTER, STEP 2

    Now assign the same subnet mask and IP address similar to laptop you such that:
    IP address: 169.254.95.190
    Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0

    The operation of bitwise AND of IP address and subnet mask of the printer must be equal to the operator AND the IP address and mask subnet of the laptop.

    You need to know how to set the IP address and mask of the subnet on your laptop. If you have struggling to survive on a network without a DHCP server. But if you need an update: go to the 'properties' of the network connection and choose the TCP/IP settings.

    Now open a web browser such as Internet Explorer, Firefox or whatever and look for http://169.254.95.189

    Now you can set up the printer using the web browser as an interface. To set a static IP address, do the following for example:

    -Click on the Networking tab
    -Choose wireless along the left side
    -Choose the IPv4 tab
    -Click on the manual button IP
    -Enter the desired IP address
    -Enter your subnet mask (255.255.255.0 unless you know otherwise)
    -Optionally enter an IP of the appropriate gateway (see INFRASTRUCTURE NETWORK below)
    -DNS leave empty
    -Click 'apply '.

    When you click 'Apply' you of course lose the connection to the printer.

    Now close the web browser, set IP address and the subnet of the laptop to what it was and try to connect to the printer using any IP you assigned.

    6. CHANGE NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE

    If you want to change an ad hoc connection to aid in making a
    network infrastructure, you need a wireless router. Ensure that the
    The gateway of the printer IP is the IP address of the router in Section 5 above.

    You can now install the software on the CD supplied with the printer. If you have previously installed the printer simply to connect a USB printer,
    the USB cable, insert the CD and reconfigure to wireless technology.

    During the reconfiguration, you will be asked which network to use. Select your
    own network (that of the router to use). Do not select the
    ad - hoc hpsetup network.

  • Satellite L300 - 17L - don't see networks wireless detected

    Hi all

    I just bought a Satellite L300 - 17L. All drivers seem to work except for the wireless card.

    First, I installed the driver indicated by this site, but I discovered that the map is actually a card Intel Pro 3945, not Realtek as specified in the section of the driver.

    Now I have installed the driver for the INTEL PRO 3945ABG, 11.5.1.15 version and also the PRO Set utility, and I do not see the networks wireless detected.

    I have a colleague who sees many networks using the same card but on another laptop.

    You should first check if the WLan router and wireless network cards use the same WLan standard.

    In the properties of card WLan (in Device Manager), you can check this settings, choose the Advanced tab.

    I would recommend also check if the WiFi network was activated properly

    Good bye

  • Unable to connect my P1102w printer to my network wireless (using Mac OS 10.6)

    I have a home network wireless vanilla (D-Link to a cable modem) and a MacMini running OS 10.6.8. My Mac laptop and 4th. GEN iPad work seamlessly. But my attempt to long hours to connect my new HP P1102w network was totally frustrating, despite a careful study of the documentation pdf, device/self test the printer configuration sheet, sailing on this forum, I'm looking at a slew of videos YouTube/HP and following all sorts of directions.

    The only consolation is the printer works fine on USB connection.

    Here are a few questions I met and that stopped me in my tracks:

    Carefully following both instructions pdf and video operating instructions online to HP, I get by step 6 w / no problemn. but then I go to step 7, which says:

    "Under the Mode of Communication , Infrastructure -click, select your network SSID from the list of names of the network (SSID)" and then click on the button. ""

    Problem is that there is nothing in this window. What I see is a State of the Wireless: enable or disabled (according to choice). And even if I try to select enabled, happening right now for people with reduced mobility. Aside: I note that the printed instructions show a copyright date of 2011. It's ancient history in the world of the CPU.

    Other issues: the single IP address I can find for the printer is the IPv4 address, but it is only for direct printing Configuration. What is the IP I'm looking for?

    Address of the printer hardward, I suppose, is your MAC? Boy, I sure could use better use of language here.

    So, needless to say, I'm stuck. It seems that it takes THAT hard, but so far nothing that I could find on the HP support or forums seems to help. Thanks for any advice you can provide.

    PS. I wouldn't go back this printer because I am a lover of HP printer, two decade, but alas, I might have if I can't find a solution.

    Dear Gemini02,

    Thanks a lot for your helpful answer. It seems very complete, and I'm happy to give it a status of resolved problem, although I have not yet tried.  The reason is, one day before receiving your message, I benefited from technical support from HP that came with the guarantee of my printer (Oh!) I would have called them first before going on the forums. Lesson learned) and they took me in hand.

    I quickly reached a support person surprisingly knowledgeable and helpful tech (work of the night in Manila, PI shift), and I quickly accepted allow access remotely to my Mac and printer. For much of the next hour she practically held my hand as she walked through a fairly complex set of steps (very similar to yours) and here!, the problem has been resolved. She later sent me the steps she helped me through, as follows:

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: WIRELESS PRINTER CONNECTION

  • Cannot connect my Photosmart C4780 to my network wireless (home)

    Hello

    I searched this forum and tried to solve my problem, but none of the elaborate suggestions.

    I have a Photosmart C4780 and am under OSX10.8

    Recently, our internet provider changed our wireless router and our SSID. As a result, the printer that is connected to the original network and properly functioning has stopped working. I tried to connect the printer to the new network, but failed. He said now that the printer is connected to the hp network (something) and I can't change it for the new SSID.

    Could you please tell me what to do? I have installed the software mentioned in the HP website, plugged the USB cable into the printer to try to set it up, but it says that the printer cannot find any existing network (although I'm next to the printer and connected to the intended network wireless)

    Fact a little kind of hard-reset on the printer can be a good strategy? How can he do?

    Thanks in advance

    Pedro

    PS: The printer works correctly when printing via USB

    PS2: It is not an option to return the SSID of the router to the previous

    Hi @pedroa

    You say "I have installed the software mentioned in the HP website", but there is no software for the compatible with 10.8 c4780. Mountain V10.8 OS X Lion: installing and using the printer on a Mac with the Mountain Lion.

    As you know, this printer has not a wizard wireless version in the front panel instead us would typically connect the USB cable from the printer to the computer and run the installation wizard.

    Because you have 10.8 on Mac, and it there is no full feature software and drivers, you won't be the configuration wizard, to configure the printer. You may be wondering now, well how can I set up then?  Good question, we will restore the default network printers and the printer will have its own IP address designed for whats called an Ad-Hoc connection (wireless router). We will put the computer on the network printer and then print a report to get the printers IP address. At this point, we can access the built-in web server (EWS) and run the wireless from there. Once the printer on the network with the router, we can put the computer on the network and vuala that the printer and the computer will be on your network.

    To restore the default network settings - since you have done this before I guess you know how, but for others who can see the message, here are the steps

    1. Press the wireless button
    2. Select wireless settings
    3. Scroll and select default network.  Press Yes to recognize
    4. The radio turns off (the blue LED turns off).  You may need to press the wireless button to turn on wireless

    Put the computer on the network printer (temporary)

    1. click on the symbol of the airport on the upper left side of the screen Mac
    2. choose the network looking compared to the printer (we could say a variant of the name of your printer or HP setup) - it may take a few minutes to make it appear

    Print the wireless network test - wait a few minutes to make sure the computer have established an ad hoc connection, otherwise the report will not have an IP address

    1. Press the Scan button (it also the wireless menu button)
    2. Select wireless settings
    3. Testing wireless access, then select.

    The wireless network Test prints, search and note the IP address.

    Open a browser (Safari) and enter the IP address in the URL (address bar).

    Click on the network, on the left tab, click on wireless or 802.11.

    At this point, we are looking at fore 'start the wizard' should be on the right side.

    As soon as we will have to set up the printer to your network, you can put your computer on your own network.

    Now you can add the printer in system preferences and print

    Please let me know if that fixes the problem, thanks.

  • HP Photosmart B110a all-in-one: unable to connect to the home network wireless HP B110

    Hello

    I haven't used my printer for a while, so put in a new cartridge and tries to connect to my wireless network - domestic (the printer is next to the Belkins router). I've also upgraded to Windows 10 recently (also have a laptop with W7).

    The printer detects the SSID for wifi and after you type the router password wireless (WPA - PSK), it is NOT authenticated.

    The password IS CORRECT (100%) but it fails on the section of SECURITY depending on the display and the summary diagnosis. The message of the report is:

    Your route wireless requires a password WPA securitg. The password configured on your HP printer does not exactly. Run the network setup wireless for re0enter your network wireless WPA security passphrase.

    I need this because the only way I print is wireless email / I send it to the email address designated and it prints - it is not physically connected to any laptop / pc.

    I tried several times, including inputtingthe SSID manually, swtiching OFF etc.

    Please help - thank you in advance.

    Best regards

    Disable and remove temporarily the password on your routers SSID. Now try to connect to your SSID unsecured. Are you successful? If Yes, go back and add WPA2-AES with a password and try again.

  • Current file to use when it is disconnected from the network wireless/wired - shared network drive

    Hello

    We have a problem where we receive a "file in use" message when you are disconnected from the network. To reproduce the problem, what we do is:

    (1) connect to the wired network wireless disabled with

    (2) create a test document

    (3) to enter text and save on network share

    (4) remove the network cable

    (5) add additional text

    (6) reconnect the network cable

    (7) try to save the file to the network share

    At the beginning by clicking the X is the new message you want to save. Click Yes and the message arrives until the next time you hit the Hit of X no. and he loses the last change.

    From here we then go up to the network share, open the file and it comes up with "file in use. Open read-only. File is opened by us (Administrator account), and there is NO temporary file in the shared folder.

    Tried so far:

    -Run net config server/autodisconnect:-1 for trying to stop it disconnect the share

    -Checked pane, pane preview and off 'display the description of the pop-up window for folder and desktop items '.

    -Windows Update

    We try to reproduce on wired connection, because it is easier to reproduce that disconnects wireless. Seems to have an impact on several operating systems. Share folder is shared on a Windows 2008 R2 x 64 machine.

    Is this a known problem or is there something that we can configure to try to prevent the locking file after logging out? Ideally, we want the decline to go unnoticed and provide uninterrupted service to the user, unless they are trying to save during the fall.

    Thanks in advance for comments :)
