change unlimited network meter in Windows XP

There's an answer posted for Windows 8 (and it solved the problem for my laptop). Now, I need to do the same thing for my desktop PC (which is Windows XP). How can I change the Win XP to see a unlimited network?

The feature of appoint a network connection or a wifi mobile broadband as "measured" has been introduced in Windows 8.  It is not available in XP.

Some new Norton products also incorporate a network measurement parameter, but only for the use of the network by the Norton product.

  • Cannot change network type in Windows 8

    How can I change a network or private so that file sharing is allowed? I thought that you could click on it from pop to subwindow network on the right side of the screen, but only my physical network connection is listed.

    More details:

    I have a physical Ethernet connection which is defined as a private network. Sharing files and any other communication on my LAN works fine. I also have a virtual connection through LogMeIn Hamachi which is defined as a public network. I can't find a way to change this. How to change network type in Windows 7 does not work in Windows 8.

    Once, I was able to change the type of Ethernet from the public to the private network by selecting that I wanted to turn on sharing. Although now I cannot access the menu to change that pop on the pane by clicking on the icon of simple network. I was also able to do it once with the Hamachi network, but only the physical card network seemed to save the change after a while. At a time the network Hamachi was not identified, but he has switched back to show as a public network. That's if everything goes though temporary and can be another problem together.

    I don't want to make an exception in my firewall, or make registry changes that specify all unidentified networks are established privately (two suggestions I found on the web so far).

    So it took me a while to find this also, I fixed it by searching for troubleshooting as suggested above. In troubleshooting search box (top right) type homegroup, and then select the resolution of the problems of the residential group, even if you're not using home group, part of the diagnosis allows you to change the type of network from public to private/home, I jumped the diagnostic network also step and allowed me to very easily change the type of network.

  • How can I change the network to a WiFi connection profile in Windows 8?

    When I connect to a wireless connection, it automatically assigns me for the Public Profile. But, I know to trust the network and want to select it as private, so that I can use the share.

    In previous versions of Windows, it was easy to change the WiFi profile. For example, in Windows 7, I would go to the network share and click on the name of the profile, and it would allow me to change it. Now, in Windows 8, the profile name is static text and is no longer provides a link that allows me to edit the profile.

    I tried to remove the profile and add it back, using the context menu on the WiFi network and "forget this network". But he never asks on the profile or sharing when I add the network.

    Try this:

    -Show the charms

    -Select settings

    -Select the network icon

    -Right click (using a mouse), or press and hold (with your finger) on the name of the network connection, that you care

    -A menu will appear to allow you to control the sharing, so to go from a private and public profile.

  • Active network of machines Windows 7 returns to 'Public '.

    Hello:

    I have a large number of machines which is imaged via SCCM about two times more than a year. All machines have the same brand of equipment and model, and they all receive the same exact image. The problem we run into is that after that all these machines were imaged and joined to the domain (automatically) a seemingly random percentage of these systems receive their 'network location' value 'Field network' for some reason any.

    The first user that connects to one of these problem machines will open with the 'Set network location' window to choose the network that the machine is turned on (IE. Public, home or office). What we have done so far is to identify these machines problem manually log and set the network location to "domain network. This is important for us since we use certain firewall restrictions using the domain profile to some software packages work so as to give access to the RDP connections. "However, sometimes even after we manually configure the network location ' field network ' location will be change back. When I connect these systems and see that the location is set to this bed "mondomaine.fr 2 (Unathenticated)" and below that says 'Public network '. Sometimes, even the machines who initially didn't have no problems with the network location will change 'field network' to the 'public network' I mentioned above.

    I noticed that if we restart one of these problem machines enough times, it will eventually return to the regular 'field network' on its own. But you are also not guaranteed it will stay like this at the next reboot.

    I compared the logs on the problem machines in newspapers on systems without problems and I do not see anything else. I looked at the logs on the domain controller and did not notice anything out of the ordinary either. The network location awareness service is enabled on all these machines by default. I know that I can remove and readd the machines to the domain and that the problem could more that probably go far but it's impossible for us to do every time we have these systems of images. At this point, I would like to know why this is happening as he keeps occurring each time that recreate us the image on all of these systems.

    I have seen this problem mentioned on the web a bit without a single identifiable culprit. A while back, I found this MS KB: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2524478?wa=wsignin1.0 that describes the problem I encounter almost to the T. However, once I downloaded the "fix" and tried to install it, it tells me that the fix is not for windows 7, even if the Web page indicates that it is.

    Someone met by reason of why this happens and a permanent solution?

  • Mapped DFS network file causes windows Explorer to hang

    Hello

    I have an environment running windows xp service Pack 3 and distributed file system (DFS) mapped network.
    The domain level is windows 2003 service pack 2 and server dfs are running in windows 2008 service pack 2.

    whenever a client machine connects open Windows Explorer / my computer on a slow network or vpn, Windows Explorer / my computer freezes for ever. The computer can operate correctly, except for this problem. The only way is to cut my cable network or perform a restart.
    I suspect it's due to the unavailable to the dfs file server SMB 445 port.

    I have found no solution or the hotfix of google or microsoft knowledge base.
    I also tried to find ways to change any dfs registry to reduce the interval or prevent as much as possible.
    For the moment, I am naïve, thank you for any help or experience to solve this problem.

  • There is no managing networks wireless in Windows 8. So.

    Original title: There is no managing networks wireless in Windows 8. So, how to remove one or remove a wireless network that has been implemented?

    Vijay think it has solved a client (re: answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-networking/how-to-delete-a-network/e8be6c6d-e2d9-4a5e-926e-afbfd2d66a7a).

    I can follow his instructions to the point of step D (re: "d. in the pane tasks, click on manage wireless networks. '). I don't have this option in the network and Internet, component; and I am the owner & administrator of this PC. Anyone know how to remove a wireless network configuration?

  • Need to programmatically change the network on an interface is

    Hi all

    A VSwitch our ESX servers is configured with multiple VLANs and I have a requirement for per program (command line) change the network Virtual Machine is too connected.

    Does anyone know how to do this?

    Thank you

    Darin

    You can manually edit the .vmx VM (s) configuration file and vimsh vmware-vim-cmd wrapper allows you to refresh the configuration VM (s):

    [root@himalaya root]# vmware-vim-cmd vmsvc/reload
    Insufficient arguments.
    Usage: reload vmid
    
    Reload the virtual machine state from afresh.
    

    Unfortunately the virtual machine must be powered off the coast, I think that to do this.

    If you need to do while the virtual machine is running, you'll want to take a look at the API of VI and watch in the ReconfigVM_Task() http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk25pubs/ReferenceGuide/vim.VirtualMachine.html#reconfigure

    It is also implemented in the VI Perl Toolkit Utilities in the form of script: http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/viperl15/doc/perl_toolkit_utilities_idx.html and you can watch the script called vmreconfig.pl http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/viperl15/doc/vmreconfig.html

    The VIPT must be running on one or the other Windows/Linux or on VMware VIMA/vMA, not on the Console of Service of ESX classic
