• I want to connect to multiple wifi networks, but with a unique wireless adapter?

  After much research on the internet I found a Virtual Wifi software that makes virtual adapters wireless with a single physical card. I download and installed this software but I don't know how to use it. There is no desktop icon or anything to change in my laptop.

  Can you please tell me some solution.

  I suggest you contact the software manufacturer for instructions on how to put up with your system.

  It should not be necessary buy additional routers.

• Unable to share the printer attached to the XP with windows 7, receive error message: windows cannot connect to the printer: operation failed with error 0x000004f1.

  Original title: printer HP LaserJet 4050 of PCL6 compatible with Windows 7?

  I have a desktop windows xp pro (SP3 5.1.2600) and you have a printer HP LaserJet 4050 PCL6.  The printer works fine connected to the desktop computer with a parallel port.  I'm trying to share the printer on my home network so that Win 7 (6.1.7601 SP1) laptops can use its printing features.  Please help.

  First I tried to add it with \\hostname\printername that returned this error: windows cannot connect to the printer: operation failed with error 0x000004f1.
  I downloaded and installed the Win7 drivers on the HP site on my laptop Win7, that has not changed a thing: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=18318&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=25475&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=4063

• Changing the settings of the WLAN with an Atheros AR5007EG Wireless Network Adapter running on a Vista computer

  How can I set the preset wlan on ONE for an Atheros AR5007EG Wireless Network Adapter running on a Vista computer.  Currently, the default is OFF and I need to use the Fn F1 to bring up the option to turn it on, Iwant my laptop to connect to my wireless router automatically without having to do that.

  Thank you

  Hi Cath.

  In most cases, it is a configuration in the BIOS of the laptop that will solve the wireless by card.

  Then start the laptop enter in BIOS and look for an entry that configure the wireless to be all the time card.

  Where necessary the manual or computer support site must have the necessary info.

• Nighthawk R8000 to Virgin Media Super Hub 2 connection problem.

  My R8000 does not connect to the hub super Virgin Media 1.0 Gbps. I have a line across the R8000 and 150 meg, I get only 96 Mbps.

  My LAN is defined as follows:

  Speed = 1.0 Gbps.

  I made the default settings and that it has not cured the problem.

  If I connect the VM 2 super hub directly to my PC I get 158,2 Mbps when the speed of local area periphery is 1.0 Gbps

  When it is connected to the VM via Wifi hub, I get 157 Mbit/s on the % line GHz.

  Any suggestions on how to get this sort would be very usfulll

  OK I'll look into that. Thanks again.

• NSLU2 - cannot connect a network - xp home sp3 drive

  Hello!

  I have a network of two xp machines connected to a wrt54gl router (dhcp) a xp pro and XP home.

  I bought a NSLU2 unit. I successfully set up according to the instructions of a xp pro machine with a USB plugged into the port of disk1. It shows on this fine machine as a network device, as well as two shared folder (admin and disk1) without further delay. (A minor hiccup: I tried to serve as a dhcp client, but I couldn't for some reason, but it works very well with fixed ip.)

  However, on xp home, I can't connect at all. It does not appear in the My network, cannot connect to it with-. I can see the device in my work group, but that's it, if I click on explore, it hangs for a while, then gives a "no access, no doubt you have no authorization" error.

  I can still access it from the web interface, but otherwise no luck.

  I tried to create a user on the NSLU2 web interface with the same name as the users private XP, without success.

  Someone has an idea what to do?

  There is a resounding slap on my forehead. It was through the firewall.

  (Although now, I do not understand, how NSLU2 forced on another machine with the same parameters...) I just had to add the slug of the IP of the zone of confidence.

• Windows cannot connect to the printer operation failed with error 0x0000007e

  Hello

  OS: Windows 7 x 86 SP1

  Print server: Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 x 86

  Printer: HP LaserJet 8150 printer shared and listed in the directory

  Problem:

  When I try to install the printer in the Add Printer Wizard, choose install a network printer, she finds a driver on the server, installs, then brings up an error (see topic).

  In the Print Service logs, I see the following:

  "The print spooler failed to load a plug-in module, 0x7e error code. See the user context information for event data.

  I can install the printer very well if I choose local printer, new port, TCP/IP, and enter the IP address. This isn't a solution, as users cannot be expected to go through this process, or for me to go around all the machines and do it manually. More I want than the print jobs to the print server's spool, and I think that the local installation method uses the local spooler.

  I tried to install the driver of HP UPD PCL 6, x 86 and x 64, on the print server.

  When I check what the client machine pilot chose to install by going to the properties of the print server, I can see that he chooses the former driver "HP LaserJet 8150 Series PCL 6". I presume that it is incompatible with Windows 7, that's why I am getting the error cannot connect.

  How can I get Windows 7 clients to use the UPD?

  I left our Windows 2003 print server to a Server 2008 and comes to install the HP UPD x 86 and x 64 for each printer. Now everything works perfectly! All XP and 7 customers can install printers network without problem.

  I suspect that the problem was due to have many different versions of drivers on the old print server, and customers did not know which to use?

• Cannot Connect to Host ESXi 4.1 with browser or Client VI

  Hi, I have a strange problem which has persisted since I first installed ESXi 4.1 on a server. First my setup:

  • ESXi Installable on a HP DL380 G6 server, 32 GB of RAM, 4xEmbedded NETWORK ports, Port NIC, 2 iSCSI x QLogic QLE4060C HBAs 1xDual adapter

  • HBAs configured for Jumbo and static IP frames but except that all the settings are default

  We have installed ESXi 4.1 with only the built-in port #1 connected to the switch. Everything went well and we were allocated the only active NIC (vmnic0) as the management interface. Once installation is complete, we were able to connect to the management interface using a browser and the VI client.

  We then connected NETWORK card and remaining HBA ports to the switch without loss of connectivity to the management interface. During our next restart we could no longer connect directly to the host using a browser or the VI client but could still ping the IP.

  We tried to restart the management agents, but it did not help.

  Here are the different startup scenarios, we tested and the results:

  Scenario #1 - Boot with built-in NICs, DP adapter cards, network and HBAs connected to the switch.

  • Can we ping the IP of host of Mgmt? = Yes

  Can • we consult to the IP host of Mgmt or connect using the VI Client? = NO

  Even if we try to unplug the adapter DP and HBA ports after starting we still cannot connect to the management using the Explorer or the VI Client interface. A reboot is required, and the script #2 or #3 must be followed.

  Scenario #2 - start with only the embedded and DP adapter NIC connected to the switch.

  • Can we ping the IP of host of Mgmt? = Yes

  Can • we consult to the IP host of Mgmt or connect using the VI Client? = NO

  If disconnect us the two ports of adapter DP we can then connect to the host via the browser or the VI client without having to restart. We can reconnect them and we continue to have access to the host, and everything is fine.

  Scenario n ° 3 -Boot with only the NIC integrated, including the Mgmt NIC connected to the switch.

  • Can we ping the IP of host of Mgmt? = Yes

  Can • we consult to the IP host of Mgmt or connect using the VI Client? = Yes

  Then we connected the DP adapter and the adapter port HBAS to the switch and all the connectivity was very good. This scenario is our solution for now.

  Other information

  The QLE6xxx ESXi module takes about 5 minutes to load during startup, when the HBAs are connected to the switch, but it loads successfully. Not sure if this is normal or not.

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  Paul

  This looks like a very unusual network for me configuration.

  Could you post a screenshot of virtual network configuration and add a few comments on the different configuration of the vSwitches and uplink connected.

  If I understand correctly that you have at least 3 vSwitches (management, virtual machines, and iSCSI), however, from what you wrote so far I do not completely understand how implement you.

• Connect the airport to the hub of sky - sharing wireless problems

  I just bought an Airport Extreme and try to connect it to my sky network hub (q) existing.

  I had it put in place, with it connected via ethernet to my hub of heaven.

  I have 2 external hard drives connected to the Airport Extreme and was a time machine back to one of the attached disks.  That everything worked very well, wait for the back up has been extremely slow (she had only managed 30 GB in 3 hours, and to do a TB).  I realized that the airport had created a wifi network of its own, and I was wondering if it was interfering with my main one sky, so I turned off the wifi at the airport.  Now I can not connect readers to share.  Utility can see them, but on my macbook, when I click on to connect to the server from the airport, it does not connect.

  Should it?  I know I shouldn't need to run 2 wifi networks if my Airport Extreme is connected to my router from Sky via ethernet?  With gratitude any help appreciated!

  Catherine

  When it is connected to the hub Sky by Ethernet, your AirPort Extreme should be reconfigured as a bridge.

  To do this, use the AirPort Utility, as follows:

  • Run the AirPort Utility.
  • Select the extreme and then, select change.
  • Click the network tab.
  • Change the router Mode to: Off (Bridge Mode).
  • Click on update and allow the base station restart.

  Hello, Legobookkirby

  To connect your DVR Media Center, you need to use a tuner card. As far as I know, there are no wireless solutions to do this.

• No connections avalible on windows 7 with a working wireless adapter.

  That's what happened. I was in a Skype call with my friend and we had a connection error after about 30 seconds. Immediately I thought that it was my internet because my internet was very uneven, lately. After resetting my router and comeing back upstairs, I had the No. are networks avalible on my screen. Initially I thought that the proablem lied through my system services application, because that's where I set the proablem last time I had this proablem. What I did after that was I have activated the service autoconfic wwan and wlan autoconfiguration service. Has nothing. According to what I've done, I went to control panel and pass to solve my adapeter wireless even if it has been enabled and connected. Then I went in my device manager and tried to update the drivers on my adapter wireless by uninstalling it and then put it back. Then I noticed that teredo tunneling Pseudo-Interface was defective. I went to check and saw that he cound not start and had an error code 10: cound device does not start. I went to google and learned how to turn it off, and I did. After that he appeared more in the Device Manager which is ok because I thought that it would fix the internet. He did not.before all this I did a before a "critical update" windows system restore but that also did not help. I started running out of options. Please help me.

  It seems to me, of course, that your wireless network card is toast, no matter what that says Device Manager.  However...

  I didn't ask and you don't mention what you use a wireless router.  Is it possible that the router configuration has changed to the Wireless-N only, Wireless-B only, or some other setting with no Wireless-G?

  Indeed, is it possible that your wireless router has its section wireless disabled or broken?  Do you have any other wireless device that you can use to determine if the router is working OK?  If possible, test with a device near your desktop (it sounds as if your router is at some distance away).

  MalwareBytes AntiMalware (free) is not an antivirus.  It's a scanner antimalware on demand/remover that is intended to be used with an antivirus program.  See https://helpdesk.malwarebytes.org/hc/en-us/articles/201861736-Does-Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware-replace-antivirus-software-

  Similarly, for Windows 7, Windows Defender is an anti-spyware program and not an antivirus (Microsoft makes things very confusing by reusing the same names for different products).

  If these two are security programs only you, your system is vulnerable, and you must install a real antivirus program.  Free offer of Microsoft - Windows 7 - is Microsoft Security Essentials.

  For now, I suggest that you run the ESET Online Scanner (free), but I don't think that malware is the cause of your Wi - Fi connection problem.

  D - Link does not appear to be any drivers for the Rev B of your adapter for what version that went Windows XP 32-bit.  D Link says that you should connect to the Internet using your wired LAN connection and get the driver right from Windows Update.  When you uninstalled and reinstalled the adapter using Device Manager, have you checked the box to delete the driver software?  If this is not the case, do it and then try to reinstall.  You need to be connected by an Ethernet cable in order to re - download the driver from Windows Update.  See http://www.dlink.com/uk/en/support/faq/adapters/usb-adapters/how-do-i-install-my-wireless-adapter-correctly-in-windows

  

  I doubt that D-Link updated its Wireless Configuration Utility for Windows 7, but if that was the case and that you use it, disable or uninstall (check Control Panel > programs and features).

  Other than the above, I'm sorry but I'm out of ideas.
