Computer with Vista unable to connect to the internet through two computers with Windows 7.

Dear engineers,

In our House, we have two new computers Windows 7 connect to Wired internet access.  Our friend came in hoping to play some MMO games with us on our connection (it has windows vista).  When we hung everything upward, by linking to our modem, his computer was visible on my husbands computer, but was visible on mine as a media device.  He could see the two computers, but could not get an internet connection and no viable ping.  We checked the network map and he showed my computer with one? related to my husband then connected to the internet.  Inside, there was an announcement indicating that the following devices are not displayed in the network map.  under of course was listed both our friends media device and the computer device.  I searched Control Panel and gave access to anyone on the login to my husbands system as long as me.  What happens if nothing else can I try to have its system you can connect to our internet?

Thank you for your attention,

Cerisea

Hello

If a computer is not properly visible it generally means that sharing is not set correctly to match your system.

You must also set your computers with the computer account of the friend as a user on your computer.

Everyone does not mean everyone wishing to connect.

If the accounts are presented only for John, Jill and Jack, setting in the folder with all permissions saves the effort of definition permission separately for John, Jill and Jack.

Everyone isn't everyone group, only John, Jill and Jack.

In general.

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.

For the best newspaper of the results of each computer screen system and together all computers on a network of the same name, while each computer has its own unique name.

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#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 the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

Win 7 networking with other version of Windows as a 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.

Vista file and printer sharing - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx

When you have finished the configuration of the system, it is recommended to restart everything the router and all computers involved.

If you have authorization and security problems, check the following settings.

Point to a folder that wants to share do right click and choose Properties.

In the properties

Click on the Security tab shown in the bellows of the photo on the right) and verify that users and their permissions (see photo below Centre and left) are configured correctly. Then do the same for the authorization tab.

This screen shot is to Win 7, Vista menus are similar.

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 . There must be specific users. All means all users who already have an account now as users. This does not mean everyone who feel they would like to connect.

    It came with Vista on it, but it is basically screwed up... There was no recovery disk... so I did a clean install with a XP disk... all right except that I can't get on the internet... In the OTHER DEVICES ethernet controller PCI device, PCI Modem, SM Bus controller, unknown device and video controller (VGA Compatible) are all highlighted with a yellow question mark...

    Hi Dreman1970,

    ·         What is the brand and model of the computer?

    Of yellow exclamation, PCI Modem and other devices Ethernet controller describes the drivers necessary for the device are missing.

    I suggest you use another computer connected to the internet to find your manufacturer's Web site. Then you need to find the driver to download links for your computer model. Once you have downloaded the drivers, you can transfer them to your computer and install them. Once the drivers are installed, you will be able to connect to the internet.

    See the following article for more information on installing the drivers:

  • Unable to connect to the internet through guest account

    We cannot connect to the internet using the guest account. I suspect a security update or my mischievous adolescent son changed a setting. This just recentlty that happened (in the past 48 hours) HELPS... I spent over 2 hours trying to get it online. The journal of WMD works very well and I was able to create another account just to see, and it also connects very well. What is the problem and how can I fix it?  Thanks, Biggator

    You do not want to connect to the Internet by using the guest account because it is precarious. In fact, you won't use the guest at all account. The guest account is a special system account, not one for when you feel hospital. For some reason, it is disabled by default in Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Linux, Unix and OS X.

    On TechNet:

    "The guest account is intended for users who need temporary access to the system. However, if this account is activated, a security risk may exist because an unauthorized user could have anonymous access to the system through this account. »

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb418978 (TechNet.10) .aspx

    So if you have enabled comments, turn it off now and create a standard/Limited (Vista, Windows 7, XP Professional/XP Home) for your visitors. Call the new user account to something like "visitor".

    And since you mentioned a teenage son:

    My home use 2 desktops and 1 this labtop and 2 days ago, I changed my wireless router.

    2 desktop computers connect to router with wire and there is no problem to use internet. but my laptop

    could ' t connect to the internet with no wire or cable. So, I tried to connect the Modem directly and can connect

    Internet. Only my labtop cannot connect to internet through this router (desktops work well).

    So, first I thought of my lancard which might be too old, so could not provide this new router, but no way

    because the desktop is older than that.

    Now, I want to just connect to internet with wire or wireless, either. Please help me.

    Please could someone help with this?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    To my knowledge, the router first with the data from your ISP.

    If done correctly, you should be able to connect to internet via LAN cable.
    Did you check that first? Do this!

    So if you can properly connect to internet via LAN cable, I would recommend set up the WiFi network on the router.
    There is a will to put the SSID (name of the WLan) encryption settings, MAC address filtering, firewall, etc.

    If these settings have been configured correctly, then you could try to configure WLan settings on your laptop!

  • Unable to connect to the internet through hp5510 printer

    As the subject line says:

    It's a printer Photosmart 5510. It prints and scans perfectly and all four laptops I installed it, the hp update downloaded software.

    When I first set up the printer, I was able to access additional applications online. After about half an hour, I lost the internet connection through the printer.

    I had installed using the automatic ip address selector and he gave me an address of 169.254.xxx.xxx.

    I have re-configured manually with a 192.168.xxx.xxx and even if the printer was working well with the PC it still wouldn't connect with internet.

    I have reset to factory settings and automatically and manually configured without success. Also, I restarted my router and changed the wireless channels.

    I can not yet use the eprint service anddownload any apps.

    My son tried to use a proxy, but it still wouldn't connect.

    As I said... .it worked for a short time and then stopped.

    Is there any solution for this?

    Thanks for any answers

    Hello

    Please try to manually set the DNS addresses in the EWS page:

    From your web browser, go to the EWS by typing the IP address of the printer.

    Enter the network tab.

    Click Network

    Click on the network (IP) address

    Under the DNS address Configuration, select manual DNS server and provide the following parameters:

    Define DNS preferred as 8.8.8.8

    and the alternative e-mail address 8.8.4.4

    Click on apply and try to access the Web Serives again.

    If the connection still does not work, and that the configured proxy address, enter the Web Services tab.

    Click the Proxy settings.

    Uncheck the option button, make sure that any field is left blank and click on apply.

    Original title: I accidentally turned off the program that allows my computer to connect to the Internet

    Hi Tunasushiroll,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem.

    The problem can occur for various reasons, including incorrect TCP/IP settings configured, firewalls third of anti-virus programs blocking the connection, or due to bad the advanced sharing settings. So, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if you system is able to detect the wireless network.

    Method 1:

    Run the troubleshooter network first, and then test your Internet connection.

    Open the Network Troubleshooter by hitting on any fly in the Dashboard screen, quilting Search(or if you use a mouse, pointing to the top right of the screen, move the mouse down and then clicking search), entering the network troubleshooterin the search box, type, or by clicking settingsand then by typing or clicking on identify and fix network problems.

    If the problem persists, try the following method.

    Method 2:

    Second of all, please check if the WLAN service is started and set to automatic. If it is stopped, then I suggest you to start the service and set it to automatic.

    1. Press the Windows key + R, type services.msc in the Run dialog box and press ENTER.
    2. Select the Autoconfiguration WLAN service in the list and double-click it.
    3. Change the startup to Automatic type, then click Start to start the service.
    4. Click apply and then click OK.
    5. Restart the computer and verify if the network is detected. If this is not the case, go to method 3.

    Method 3:

    Reset the DNS and TCP/IP settings.

    1. Press the Windows key + X, click prompt (Admin).
    2. Please enter the following commands and press ENTER after each one.

      netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt
      netsh winsock reset
      ipconfig/registerdns
      ipconfig/flushdns
      ipconfig/release

    3. Restart the computer to check the issue.

    Check if the system is able to detect the network. If this is not the case, go to method 4.

    Method 4:
    Temporarily disable the security software (if any), and check if it helps.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • Computer shows it's connected, but unable to connect to the Internet

    Original title: also connected but unable to connect

    I have a HP Pavilion a1710n 64 Dual Core Processor running Windows Vista Home Premium.

    The computer shows that I am connected to the internet, but I can't connect to IE or firefox.

    My Internet Protocol Version4(TCP/IPv4) properties shows that the two buttons marked for obtain an IP address automatically as well as the use the following DNS server address.

    My network card is NVIDIA 10/100/1000 Mbit / s, and the computer shows that it works correctly. I tried to do a back roller and re - put to date but still the two marked buttons.

    Large number of background information...

    I was trying to understand why the windows installer did not work on my son's account. I went in systems and changed to start and automatic manual. Rebooted PC and the firewall do not come. Tried to do a restore, but failed and lost all my restore points.

    At this point, I lost my internet connection to know after vainly trying to figure out the problem I contacted an ATT(my internet server) of things ATT me had to do was change the properties to get the use of a DNS server address automatically and had typing me the address. After reviewing the many things ATT concluded there was not a problem with my connection and the PC is configured correctly and suggested that I should speak to technical support and of course, it was not free.

    Tech support determined there was something that crashes me to connect to the internet and had run me malwarebytes. He detected 24 traces of adware and 2 traces of a virus in the registry database. I deleted everything and still no connection to the internet. Next Tech had me run Combofix and says everything should run fine after that. Still no connection to know Tech # 3 had executed me guests of orders with ping commands. Finally, he had me check the auto config button and that's where I discovered the two buttons were lit. Tech said "can't be." Well it is. That's when I tried to roll back the driver, but no luck so tech says only option is to restore the whole system.

    GRRRR... After several internet searches that I'm about to do except nothings saved and whenever I try to use my backup and restore fails.

    Any help would be appreciated. I'm still fairly new to PCs so please be patient with me. Laughing out loud

    I know that my options have been counted, I was able to save what was important and made a full system recovery. I am happy to say that I'm back on the internet.

    Thank you very much for your help and support. I learned a lot on my computer, as well in location wonderful are the microsoft forums :)
