By selecting automatically to a specific wireless network

My computer connects to another network other than mine wireless regularly, and then I have to change the network manually.

I can force my computer to logon to a specific network?

Thank you

Hello

In fact, you can change the order in which your computer connects to networks, drag the networks upwards or downwards in the list of wireless networks. To change preferences for the network, right-click the network, and then click Properties.

As you mentioned that your computer connects to another network, this problem may occur if one of the following is true.

1. your computer is located between two networks that you have connected to before.

To resolve this situation, you can do the following:

(1) move your computer to one of the networks. With the access points or routers 802.11 g and 802. 11 b, is the maximum range of up to 150 feet (46 m) indoors and 300 feet (92 meters) outdoors. With 802. 11A routers and access points, the maximum range is 50 feet (15 meters) indoors and 100 feet (30 meters) outdoors. These ranges are in optimal conditions without interference. Keep in mind when deciding where to locate your computer.

(2) turn off the automatic passage in one or two network profiles. Please follow the steps:

a. Click here to open manage wireless networks.

b. right-click on the network profile that you want to disable the automatic switching, and then click Properties.

c. click the tab connection, clear the connect to a network more preferred if possible check box, and then click OK.

2 If a network on your list of preferred wireless networks the same SSID as another network that is in range of your computer, Windows might try to switch between the two routers or access points because they feel that they are on the same network. This can happen in places such as apartment buildings or neighborhoods where people have the same network hardware and have not changed the default settings.

To resolve this issue, give a unique SSID in your router or access point. See the documentation provided with the device to find out how to change the SSID.

3. in the meantime, please visit the help and Support Windows for more information.

  • Can the utility Airport automatically adjust a mobile wireless network to a non roaming wireless network?

    Greetings,

    I have expanded my wireless Ethernet (network roaming) cable network.

    The Time Machine (primary base station) and the Airport Extreme (base station #2) lights is green and two base stations work properly when played back via the AirPort Utility.

    I disconnected the cable Cat5 LAN of the time Machine (happening at the WAN on the Airport Extreme connection) assuming that the go-ahead would begin orange flashing on the Airport Extreme.  He did not.  Everything always worked as far as I could tell.  If I had the cable connected or not, everything worked again 'normal' as it should as far as I could tell.

    So here's my question: by disconnecting the ethernet cable from the Airport Extreme, does mean that automatically toggled Airport Airport Extreme for a network utility not travelling?  In other words, rather than extend the network via ethernet, wireless network is expanded wireless?

    What Miss me?

    Return to the configuration with the Ethernet cable connected to AirPort Extreme

    Open AirPort Utility, click on the AirPort Extreme, then click on modify in the window that appears

    Click on the Wireless tab at the top of the screen

    Check the current setting of the network Mode

    He must "create a wireless network.

    Is it?

    If this is not the case, the AirPort Extreme has never configured for a roaming set up in the first place.

    How can I disable the automatic connection on wireless network connection?

    In the lower right corner of your screen, you have an icon with several bars.  It is the WiFi icon.  A click on that and you will see a list of WiFi connections.  Right click the one you want to change, and then click Properties.  Click the connection tab and uncheck the box to automatically connect when the network is in range.  And then click OK.

    I hope this helps.  Good luck.

  • Specific wireless network does not connect in Windows 7, but does in Windows 10?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L750D laptop, it is about 3 years old now.

    I use Windows 7 for a while. Everything works fine to connect wireless at home and more than other wireless networks, but the hours was spent without success to get it to connect to the wireless work (Ministry of education, that's why this included fiddling around with the proxy settings and user authentication options). I got it to connect properly this wireless in the past, but to another school.

    I had given up on actually being able to use internet in my class to improve the education of students.

    I upgraded my computer to Windows 10, then suddenly, following the same steps that we had tried before, my laptop had no connection to detnsw disorders. Hooray, 21st century learning!

    Unfortunately, some of the hardware in my computer graphics or something couldn't handle Windows 10 (or I couldn't manage Windows 10 and what he did to my outdated laptop), so I had to use the restore function, which came back my computer to Windows 7 without having to format my computer and re - install Windows 7 from an external source.

    Now she continues to refuse to connect, even advise that to contact the network administrator.

    It's driving me crazy. What is different between the 2 operating systems that allows to connect without fuss one way and deny the other way?

    I have triple checked everything I could think of that could prevent the connection, including the drivers and my antivirus, nothing helps.

    Is this just a case of Resistentialism that cause me to seriously consider spending the money that I have not currently on a new laptop just so I can show the occasional Youtube educational video?

    Has anyone else had a similar problem, or is it just me?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query to the Microsoft forum. I will definitely help you with this.

    The problem may occur if the network drivers are not correctly updated or you need to change the network settings.

    Method 1: Please follow the steps described in the article Microsoft help to the given address:

    Using the troubleshooter from network in Windows 7

    How can I troubleshoot network card?

    Method 2:

    I suggest that you change options for both the systems on the network in the Advanced sharing settings (Open Network & Sharing Center > Advanced sharing settings to change):

    -Enable network discovery

    -Turn on the file and printer sharing

    -Turn on sharing so anyone with network access can read and write files in public folders

    -Turn off password protected sharing

    Now, try to map the drive, follow these steps:

    1. click on Start, click on computer and click map network drive in the options under the address bar.

    2. in the drive box, click the drive letter to use.

    3. in the folder box, type \\server\share, where you can type the IP address of the drive to be mapped. For example, if the IP address is 192.168.6.xxx, you type \\192.168.6.xxx.

    4. click on Finish.

  • Unable to connect to a specific wireless network

    I'm currently sitting in a café, connected to their wifi WPA2 with my MacBook.

    I can not connect to the same network with my iPhone 4S. It just do not see it--other networks, Yes, but not the coffee. I tried to reset the iPhone; the other networks still appear, but not the one I want to join. I tried to connect manually several times with 'other '.... ', using my MacBook to check SSID and password of the wifi, but the iPhone says that it cannot find the network let alone accede.

    It's a signal very strong: the wifi bars are entirely black in the menu bar of my MacBook. My iPhone can see half a dozen other wifi networks, including those where the router is not as tight as one that I am trying to connect. I can not not connect to others: either they are password protected, or require a customer relationship or are not worthy of trust.

    What is going on?

    Just to add: I know that the standard Apple FAQ on connectivity issues iOS wifi; they are not a help here.

  • Creating a wireless network

    I have a desktop HP m7250n with Windows XP Media Center Edition (32 bit) operating system.  This is related to my modem/router.  I would like to know what I have to do to allow my laptop's wireless operation, running Windows 8 operating system and my tablet, Tablet, Android Jelly Bean 4.2 running within my living space.  I am really a novice and have no experience with such things. It would be greatly appreciated if someone could guide me through this.

    Hey Noirion,

    Microsoft has a good article on how to do this: https://www.microsoft.com/athome/organization/wirelesssetup.aspx

    Basically, you'll need:

    • Internet connection at home
    • Wireless router
    • Devices (such as your laptop and Tablet)

    Since there are infinite combinations of internet providers, hardware (modems for example) that they use and wireless routers - it isn't really a step by step guide "one-size fits all". The main steps are:

    1. Buy a wireless router. There are a lot of routers wireless on the HP Official Store.
    2. Follow the instructions supplied with the wireless router to connect to your internet service (via modem).
    3. Set up some kind of security for your wireless network (ideally WPA2 security with a password that you choose) - many wireless routers have a "Setup Wizard" which allows you to configure security. You do not want your neighbors or strangers to connect to your network home!
    4. Configure your wireless devices (book of exodus, compressed, PS3, etc) to connect to your network wireless by selecting the name of your wireless network and entering the password you chose, all network configuration menus on your specific devices.
    5. Enjoy wireless connectivity!

  • Wireless configuration of HP C4780 with new router and Mac (wireless network not found)

    About 10 months ago, I bought a new router. I already had several problems connecting my HP C4780 to my old router, and after setting up the new router, I was totally unable to connect the printer wireless to my router.

    I have reset the system to the printer on my Mac, I have reset the settings on my printer wireless, I downloaded the latest HP software, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the HP software several times and I have had no success. When running through the Setup Wizard, I was able to select the printer and method (wireless network set up by USB) before plugging the USB key. After that, the Setup Wizard says "Device not connected" (DUH!) and the screen select network said simply "no discovery goes Wi - Fi network." I ran the print to the printer from the Network Configuration, and he identified 15 networks (mine included). So, it seems that the Wi - Fi receiver on the printer still works...

    Any suggestions?

    P.S. This printer has been nothing trouble since I got it, and I wouldn't recommend it to ANYONE (I like actually...).

    After attempting to run the installer on my boot camp Windows 7 Ultimate version, I fell at last on an obscure statement in the configuration of the PC software for the c4780. It says to connect the computer to the router using the router WPS button.

    I have reset the configuration on the printer and turned off wireless the wireless, then I pushed the the router WPS button until the blue WiFi light on the c4780 lit. THIS SEEMED to BE THE KEY STEPS to CONNECT THE c4780 to MY ROUTER.

    After that, the configuration and setting up the printer on my Mac using the system of preferences was a piece of cake. Functions of the printer and the scanner work with Mac drivers.

    Problem solved... For now... This printer is so buggy, I have no doubt I'll have similar problems in the future.

  • A neighbor's wireless network is more powerful than mine, so my MacBookPro selects every time.  How can I eliminate the network of neighbour from the airport to the research?

    Wireless network from a neighbor is always "found" by my Airport first, then my MacBook links to it.  But I want to find my own network, of course.  Question: How can I remove this neighbor of the network function research network?  Is it still possible?  In other words, I want my laptop to ignore this network around when I wake up from my laptop.

    On your Mac laptop...

    Open the preferences system (gear on the dock icon)

    Open network

    Click WiFi on the left panel to select

    Click Advanced in the bottom right of the window

    Here you can see the list of networks that 'remembers' your laptop and connect to the network at the top of the list first.  If you want the laptop to connect to a specific network, click the network name to highlight, and then drag it to the top of the list.

    Now, click to highlight a network that you do not want your laptop to 'remember', then click on the - (less) button at the bottom of the list to remove the network. Do the same for other networks that you no longer need.

    Click OK at the bottom right of the window

    Click on apply in the next window that appears

    Close the windows and then restart your Mac.

  • My PC (Windows 7), will automatically connect to the new networks unknown wireless is in the range. I want to stop it.

    I found a variety of positions that describe how to disable the "connect automatically" option for a specific network you connected to in the past (via 'manage wireless networks), for example:

    They do not resolve my problem because my computer connects automatically on * new, unknown * networks that I've never connected to the front (and also, even after it connects to these networks, they do not appear in the list under 'Manage wireless networks').
    Apparently, it set to the default behavior to automatically connect to the new network he meets, and I need that to turn off. Thank you.

  • Automatic, log in via the wireless network bridge

    The main router (provided by the ISP) which brings the Internet to my home is connected to a media player.  I have a USB adapter wireless (Linksys N Series) and an ADSL Modem / gateway (Linksys WGN Modem) connected to my PC.  I can't create a wired connection to my PC from the main router as its some 25 metres, and I don't want to shoot the son as long.

    I used USB wireless network adapter to connect to the router and was able to surf the net and a reasonable speed without a lot of data loss.

    I've also set up a wireless bridge on my PC (Vista Home Premium).  The network bridge is created by merging the connection to the local network (which is the ADSL modem) and the wireless connection.  Once I created the bridge, I was able to read files with the PC via the media player.

    The problem I have is every time, I stop the pc and reboot, the network bridge / connection is not started automatically.  I had to go and re - create the connection every time.  I don't understand why this is happeneing.  Is this due to weak signals received by the USB modem or another reason.  What is the solution?

    Is there a better way to set up my home network.  Any ideas / help would be very appreciated.  Thank you
