Cannot get on Internet at home

I have two laptops at home, the two Dell, same system and configuration.  Initially, they both had McAfee on them.  Now we have McAfee and there your software.  The problem is one of the laptops will not get on the Internet at home.  I can get into any other thing but not at home.  The other laptop has now no problem.  Any suggestions?

I move your message to the Windows forum for networking topic.

The only impact of MSE would have on the PC it is installed on networking issues would be if you do not have to completely remove McAfee using McAfee utility software to delete linked from here:

It is not likely to be the problem, however, given that the PC can access the Internet when docked elsewhere.

My suspicion would be a defective router or misconduct. You have rebooted or power cycled the router? Do you have confirmed that your ISP is not having a problem in your area assuming that cable or DSL is your connection at home?

  • Cannot get on Internet with computer Vista, getting 169 ip address

    We have a problem with Vista my boyfriend. He said that everything was working fine yesterday, and then we left for lunch. He thought that he turned off the computer, but when we came back he was and would not connect to the internet. We first thought it was a bad cable so went out and got a new but no change. I also tried to use the cable from another computer but still can't connect. We get a 169 ip address and the network shows as Public unidentified network with limited connectivity. We have tried to change for private network but always presented as identified and unable to connect to the internet network. I'm sure that yesterday we have a 192 ip address and the address of a default gateway and succeeded to another computer on the network but still could not get on the internet, but failed to get the IP 192 today. I'm confused, what is happening. Help, please!

    More information - Vista computer also has a wireless adapter that when activated, it works but we have the connection Ethernet also works. I tried to connect with the mode safe mode with networking, but get the same thing. I thought to reset tcp/ip, but given that the wireless adapter is able to connect, does that mean tcp/ip works on the computer and running that a fix would be a waste of time? I don't want to do anything that could screw up the wireless adapter. Ethernet is on board so that it cannot be let go and need to reinstall. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks for your reply. I tried to remove the network adapter from Device Manager and allowing windows to reinstall but it does not solve the problem. It is a desktop computer. I started to think about how the cable could have been pulled and could have damaged the Ethernet port and was going to ask you what the lights where the cable plugs into the Ethernet port average. It's a green light solid with a yellow flashing light next to him. I decided to shut down the computer and blow the Ethernet port with compressed air. To my surprise, it works now! Although your answer directly does not solve my problem, it helped me not to do things that do not help and he will think the Ethernet port and what could be wrong with it.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
    Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
    obstacles in the path?

    Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon.

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
    manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
    updated drivers.

    I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
    are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

    Thank you

    Hello

    (1) what you're trying to download?

    (2) how you try to download?

    (3) what browser you are using to download?

    (4) don't you make changes to the computer until the problem occurred?

    Step 1: This error occurs when your browser and IDM are set to run under different privileges.

    Maybe you have set to run IDM with administrator rights. This is not correct. IDM Ouvrezledossier if please, right-click on 'IDMan.exe', select the 'Properties' menu item, switch to the "Compatibility" tab and uncheck the checkbox "Run this program as Administrator" (arrow 2 on the image). In addition, you must remove the compatibility with previous versions of Windows if there is none activated (arrow 1 in the picture).

    If this does not help, try to do the same for the executable file of your browser. In addition, turn off the feature with older versions of Windows and "Run this program as Administrator" checkbox.

    Step 2: You may need to run IDM with administrator once rights to register its DLL files. Exit IDM using "Tasks-> output" of the main menu. Then right click on IDM launch icon in the Windows (arrow 1 in picture) programs launch menu and select "Run as Administrator" (arrow 2 on the image).

    Then exit IDM again and run normally.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • Cannot get Windows XP Home Edition for a mapped network drive / share on a computer of Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    I constantly tried to use the "NET USE" syntax to get a Windows XP Home system to keep & share mapped network drive on a Windows 7 Pro 64-bit of the system and nothing I tried or worked on ANY blog. I can map the current network through made normal drive right click on 'My computer' and then provide a designation of drive letter with the correct path and have had great success using the function "connect using a different user name." However, even with the box checked to re-connect to the opening of the service is WORTHLESS! I made a lot of attempts to use the Net use syntax to create a batch file to overcome this non-functional raw application. I would really appreciate someone who actually had this issue resolved and work. I have looked at all the Windows files on the XP machine, searched the registry about a possible switch, which could make the necessary changes and have made all necessary changes on the Windows 7 system to accept the mapped network share.

    Since you have a network with different OS' I hope that Win 7 is configured to run on asnetwork work.

    If evry thing is configured properly it can be a problem of how your router keep information network. With the help of Staic DHCP or IP static on computers could help solve the problem.

    Just in case you need to reconfigure your network.

    ---------------

    Win7 when configured on the peer-to-peer network has three types of configurations of sharing.

    Group residential network = only works between Win 7 computers. This type of configuration, it is very easy to entry level users to start sharing network.

    Working network = fundamentally similar to previous methods of sharing that allow you to control what, how and to whom the records would be shared with.

    Public share
    = network Public (as Internet Café) in order to reduce security risks.

If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall isactive .

    Since you have a network with Win 7 and the other version of Windows, you must configure Windows 7 as work network.

    In the center of the network, by clicking on the type of network opens the window to the right.

    Choose your network type. Note the check box at the bottom and check/uncheck depending on your needs.
