Computer visible on the network

• Make the computer Visible on the network

  I have several computers connected to my router.  Some wireless, some by ethernet.  One of the computers is an old WinXP machine, the others are all either Vista or Win7. (BTW the XP computer connects with ethernet

  1. The XP computer can "see" all the others available in network connection
  2. All new Vista & Win7 machines can 'see' each other
  3. None of the latest you can 'see' the XP computer as available for a connection

  I guess I have to change something in the XP computer to make it visible to others.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  It see all availble devices that are configured for Sharew on the network.

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

  Maybe this can help.

  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.

  Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

  General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#trusted
  Please Note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic.

  If you end up with the 3rd party software uninstalled or disabled, make sure that Windows native firewall is active .

  The Security Panel and the authorization Panel, you need to highlight each user/group and consider that the authorization controls are verified correctly.

  When everything is OK, restart the network (router and computer).

  * Note . The groups and users listed in the screen-shoot are just an example. Your list will focus on how your system is configured.

  * Note . All the users who are allowed to share need to have an account onall computers that they are allowed to connect to.

  Everyone is an account, that means a group of all users who already have an account now as users. It is available to avoid the need to configure permission for each on its own, it does not mean all those who feel that they would like to connect.

• SPA942 not visible to the network after factory reset

  Hello

  A while ago someone at our office a factory reset on one of our Linksys SPA942 phones.  He thought that it worked (it worked flawlessly; but our router has decreased. Great).  The sad thing is, from the factory, it did not work.

  The problem is that no matter what we try - DHCP or static IP - we do not seem to make this device visible on our network. As in, type us its IP address in a browser and do not see the Setup page.

  We have tried everything we can think of.  Subnet mask is correct. Addresses DNS and IP - PBX (for not they should really make a difference) are correct.  I don't see what the problem is.

  Can someone please offer a suggestion, before go me crazy? !!!

  Thank you very much.

  Jarrod

  First of all, thank you for your response. It prompted me to do some play. Here are the results, in case anyone else having a similar problem (a cable by a novice/cheapskate) stumbles across this post...

  We don't have a SPA9000. Simply, we have a Belkin router wired to four points:

  1. downstairs IP - PBX - work

  2. downstairs SPA942 & PC - both work

  3. downstairs SPA942 & PC - both work

  4 floor SPA942 (does not work) & PC (work)

  So... all PC connect perfectly to the Internet and the network, as do both phones down.

  Following the principle of your simple suggestion ("make sure that it is correctly connected to the network") and the first rule of tech support ("is the computer plugged in, sir?"), I decided to reject the hypothesis that the handset was at fault and check if the connection upstairs was to blame (even if the PC we have up there connects very well).

  Bingo! Telephone three works when it is plugged downstairs. Phone two, which worked fine at the bottom, does not work on the floor.

  So now I know what the problem is... but have no idea WHY the problem is. Why don't the floor point network working perfectly for each device I care to plug in - office book server, ATA, fax, you name it - and not for the SPA942?

  I changed all the cables around the router, in order to verify if there was something wrong with a specific port. That has not changed anything. Assume that all router ports are fine.

  So what does this leave... the cable? Seems unlikely, but all other possibilities have been rejected.

  So, I put the phone on the floor downstairs and plugged directly on the router, using another length of cable. Knit then all three phones.

  Look closer to the floor and found wiring that it is three separate lengths of CAT5, joined with connectors RJ45 base (suppose cabler could not to allow/couldn't be bothered buying a cable length).

  Last question... it is likely one of the lengths is a cable cross/patch... that all the devices other than our SPA942 are smart enough to understand this and to compensate accordingly? How the office is wired, it is very tedious and precarious (12 foot ceilings, etc.) to get in there and change the cable lengths, but obviously do so if it is the likely culprit.

  Thanks again,

  JD

• manually download updates from another computer to get the network adapter driver.

  I have a wireless adapter pci wg311v3 netgear that I can't find the drivers for and I heard that windows update can provide the driver, the problem is that I can't update windows without network card.  I can't plug the computer in the network, so there is not another avenue, I was hoping that there is a manual update option for windows update.  Can you be it someone please let me know if this makes / does not exist and if so where I can find it, thanks!

  IF the OS is Vista or Windows 7, Windows Update does not save the update in a reusable format. Why not download the driver directly from the Netgear website and then save it to a USB key or USB external hard drive?

• Computer connects to the network wireless as "local only".

  I am running Vista Home Premium SP2 on a HP Pavilion laptop.  I've never had any problems to connect this machine to a wireless network before, in hotels, at home, or anywhere.  My current home network is a modem - cable-> wireless-> wireless netgear n300 router.  My laptop connects to the internet via the modem cable directly or a wire from the netgear router.  I have a second, almost cell identical (it's intel, while the one who does not is AMD) which connects to the network wireless without any problem.  Two iphones connected wirelessely without any problem.  My HP laptop is the only one who refuses to connect to the internet.  Connected to the wireless network, it has access "local only".

• Internet connection is unreliable - when a wireless computer connects to the network, all other stands and the router needs to be reset

  I have a home wireless network with a new router Belkin (no separate modem). There are four laptop computers in our House, which connect to the wireless network. One of them is Windows 7, both Vista and the other is XP.

  Sometimes the internet works perfectly well and all four laptop computers are able to connect simultaneously. But more often... when a new laptop is on and attempts to connect, all current laptops get kicked out of the network all together and are unable to reconnect. The network broadcasts always and appears in the list of available networks, but we are unable to connect.

  Other times, if my roommate is very well on the internet and I turn on my laptop, I can't see even the network, despite the fact that it is to use! If I turn the router off and on again (sometimes we do this several times) it works OK again.

  Sometimes this happens several times a day, other times we go days without having to reset. The problems are more frequent when the old Vista laptop is used which is what made me think it may be related to computers (or their settings) rather than the router.

  Thank you

  Alex

  You may need to check every laptop and the router, to be sure.

  Go to the website of the manufacturer of your Belkin router > make sure you have the latest Firmware for it.

  Go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/notebook > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for it last network adapters Vista drivers > download/install the.

• Computer connects to the network, but not to the Internet, connect to the only local

  Hello world

  OK, so I have a HP computer with the installed version of Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit. I've had it for almost 2 years now and have had no problems connecting to Internet... until now.

  I can connect to networks... both wireless and cable, but I can not get Internet. I used the IP, subnet mask, gateway and server settings DNS to another computer that works with this specific local network just to see what happens... my computer has failed.
  Until recently, I could connect to this WiFi connection in a coffee shop, but the last time I tried it didn't work. I've connected to the network but not the Internet. He told me that the DNS server did not. I'm starting to think that something is wrong with my computer.

  I saw that the solution for some people running the Norton removal tool, however I had uninstalled Norton almost as soon as I got my computer 2 years ago and ran McAfee instead. I don't think that Norton should have an impact on me more.

  Is there a solution to this problem... or I'll just have to try everything that is out there?

  Thanks for your help!

  Hi MomPlaysBass,

  Finally, my problem has been resolved - it wasn't my computer after all. The modem may only be connected to a computer. If you want to connect to another computer, you can connect the computer to the modem and then put it back. My computer worked fine after that. Whenever we want to switch between computers, even if I have to reset the modem.

  I don't think you have the same problem, but just in case, you can try to reset your modem - it's a button on the back or a small hole that you can reach with a pen... Hold the stylus for about 5 sec or maybe a bit more and then let go. That should reset your modem and might help you with your problem. Your computer should also have created a restore point... If all else fails maybe you can try to get back to the final point where your computer worked.

• HP Envy 4500: Printer connected to the network; laptop computer connected to the network; laptop cannot find the printer!

  I searched through the forums and read a few threads about similar questions, but do not yet have a solution to my problem.  The printer is connected to the network (even printed page "Congratulations, you're connected" with all the relevant information).  It is on the same network as my laptop.  However, when I run the exe to install on my laptop, it does not find the printer, even when I put the IP address the printer gave me on the congratulations page!  I have run Avast Free Antivirus 2015 on my machine, but don't see any particularly troubling parameters which could interfere.

  Any thoughts on how I can get the laptop to see the printer?

  Henchman21,

  Thank you for the information you have provided to us. I will be you initial steps that could solve the problem.

  Solution

  1. do you have the HP Envy 4500 connected to your computer via the usb cable

  2. If you have installed the correct software for your HP Envy 4500 and the drivers on your computer, you will need to run

  * Note: If the software and drivers for the HP Envy 4500 does not work or does not work the .exe, you must uninstall it in add it and remove programs.

  2 1a, you should download the drivers and software for the HP Envy 4500 on-site HP click on this link.

  2 2 b If you have correctly downloaded it you must connect the HP Envy 4500 device to the computer via a usb cable and launch the installation. Usb printers will be automatically detected by your computer. Installation of HP Assistant there will be a point he will ask you if you want to configure the computer for wireless connectivity, it's time that all wireless information stored on your computer will be transferred to the HP Envy 4500. If this does not work! and I know that it will not...

  3. you should check if you have administrative rights on the computer.

  I hope that the solution I provided will work for you.

  Let me know if the steps above don't work for you

  Thank you
