  • Why I still see other appearing in my list of wireless network connection when network discovery is turned off?

    Why other users who are are my nearby?

    Can I be sure that they cannot see me when discovery of the network on my computer is off?

    Should I worry about these other users?

    I am the only computer in my home group, and my wife uses a Tablet using my wireless network key. but no one else has access to my home group.

    Discovery Network turns off the discovery of other devices that are already inside your trusted network (like your TV system game, tablets, phones and other computers).

    It does not affect the list of wireless network connection, which is actually just a list of wifi nearby broadcasting system has found.  You can not turn off without turning off your wifi.  But this isn't a security problem.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    Whenever you turn on your Wi - Fi, it shows the different profiles, you can connect to. If you connect to a profile once again, these profiles might get accumulated in the framework of your wireless connection.

    If you do not want some profiles, you can delete these profiles.

    Follow the steps to remove these profiles.

    1. Start network and sharing Center.
    2. In the pane tasks , click manage wireless networks.

    3. Right click on the connection you want to remove and then click remove network.

    4. In the dialog manage wireless - WARNING networks , click OK.

      The connection is removed from the list of wireless connections that you can view or edit.

    Hope this information is useful. Let us know if you need more help, we will be happy to help you.

  • Equium A60 - no wireless network connection

    Hello world

    I have had a good look through the forums and can't find anything related to this but my apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere :-)

    I set up a wireless home network with a Windows XP desktop computer with a router and a laptop old Win98, WinXP SP2, which I can't connect and an Equium A60. I installed two different network on the A60 USB adapters, seems to be okay with all of them except that there is no "wireless network connection" listed under network connections Control Panel. Both cards work fine on two other machines, so there must be a problem with the A60. I installed an adapter and then uninstalled before trying another.

    Under control-> connections Panel Network, I can see an old broadband connection and the connection to the Local network (which is allowing me to connect to the router via Ethernet, so that the router will work), but the wireless network connection icon is not there. The driver for the USB adapter makes its appearance in Device Manager and is reported as working properly, but if it worked correctly then (I think) a wireless connection icon should appear - it happened with my other WinXP desktop.

    Any ideas of what could be the cause?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I guess that the external WLan USB stick has been recognized one installed correctly. You said it appears in Device Manager. Are you sure that the WLAN USB key has been recognized to 101%? !!

    If the WLAN USB key is recognized correctly, check the properties of this stick. (I think you should right click and then click on properties).

    But if the stick was not recognized, you must verify the properties of the single USB ports and power safe mode.
    Choose the USB single root hubs in device, right click, properties, tab power management Manager and disable the option called allow the computer to turn off the device to save energy.

    So maybe it helps

    Okay, I know I'm stupid. But I think a long time I could have deleted the wireless network icon. I have a desktop computer and I am connected to my modem with my ethernet cable. However, I just got a Roku Netflix player and need to have a wireless network. My modem has a wireless function, but I need this thing to wireless network icon who put in place.

    I checked the forums and they tell everyone to go to Device Manager and uninstall something, then restart your computer.  When I go there my options for uninstall are Intel Pro/100 VE Network Connection and network controller that has a yellow circle with and exclamation mark inside. I'm pretty sure is my wireless card, I had installed but no longer uses.

    So, how can I uninstall? Or is this not what I need to do?

  • I lose the internet connection randomly but never lose my wireless network connection.

    I use a hp pavilion dv9500 with 64-bit vista sp2 and built in a wireless adapter that will fall randomly my internet wireless connection, but maintains my wireless network connection with an excellent signal strength.

    My (non-permanent) fixed
    I know how to reconnect to the internet, but it forces me to diagnose a repair my connection. It then displays "cannot connect to Server primary dns (75.75.75.75)"after which it gives "things to try" who never work and a button 'Reset the ip address' that I click. " repair bar will fill up to half way and go to a new screen solution that shows more 'solutions' and a "reset wireless adapter" button which I click. the remedy bar will fill and then display windows can not solve the problem and go for help. I then manually disconnect from the wireless network and my computer will automatically reconnect to the network and to the internet. It takes about five minutes to fix, but it happens so often that it is getting boring. The process will not work if I only to reset the ip address and then disconnect from the network, only to reset the wireless adapter and then disconnect, or just disconnect from the network and reconnect. I have to reset the ip address and the wireless adapter and then disconnect from the network.

    The internet connection will tend to disconnect when I watch a lot of youtube videos, when I download large files like a game on steam, or just just randomly when I use it. I'll use it for a long time and he can't let it go, but sometimes it will go down to ten minutes after I had just reconnected in a drop-down list. It happens randomly without another warning that download time will increase from 2 mb to 50 k in two seconds all about or stop the loading of a youtube video when I look at it.
    I searched everywhere for an answer, but it's as if it were a new problem for all humanity or just im the only person who does not know how to solve this problem, because there are no forums or FAQ not related to my problem. It is not so much a serious problem such as an irritating problem that appears at inconvenient times or when I just want to relax and watch a video. It takes some time to reconnect and even though I know how it would be better if my connection would just stay connected to the internet at any time.
    I have no idea what the problem could be that whenever I have find I never get related problems. all advice or solution would be great.
    I also share this modem with other three commonly used computers: a wired office and two other laptops that the two are connected wirelessly. both other laptops do not have the same problem as mine. My router is a linksys e3000 wireless router.

    Hi DustinMoor3,

    Follow the troubleshooting steps posted by Shekhar (marked as the answer) in this thread to solve the problem with no connection to the primary DNS server, in particular the method 2 worked for other users.

  • Wireless network connection problem

    Nice day

    I have a wireless network connection problem and I ask for help to resolve.
    What surprises me that this problem appeared suddenly, I used to connect to the WIFI correctly but two days ago my laptop could not connect to the WIFI and more.

    Other devices and computers connect with success so I think that the problem in my laptop.
    I don't have any changes on my laptop or windows, antivirus, drivers... updates or installed new software.
    Troubleshooting of Windows detected 'router or access point issues '.
    -Reset the router does not resolve the problem
    -Network adapter is enabled.
    -State of wireless card "working properly" and "update".

    I read a solution on this site, which was to change the properties of the wireless adapter, but the changes mentioned does not appear in the pilot of my laptop...

    * My laptop info. :
    DELL INSPIRON 3521
    Windows 7-64 bit
    Dell WIreless 1703 802.11b/g/n(5.2GHz)

    Sorry for this long to make, I appreciated all the help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Have you tried to reset your laptop to a time before this issue started with a Windows 7 Restore Point?  If it is a parameter change or software this restore point can help solve what is at the origin of the problem.

    I'd also, of course, when you are resetting the router, to make sure that you let it sit for at least 30 seconds to a minute before plugging power back in.  You may need to do a few times to clear his memory to be able to connect.

    In addition, have updated the drivers for the wireless card?  What version of driver currently installed in the system?  You can consult our support site, enter your serial number and click on drivers & Downloads to find the driver for your wireless card.

    Finally, have you tried to empty the wireless profiles that are currently stored in your system?   If you delete the profile current wireless (which is to control your connection to the router), reboot your system, and try to reconnect Windows will rebuild the profile and hopefully allow you to log in again.

    I would like to know if any of this helps.  To help resolve this more effectively please click on my user name Dell Todd and send me a private message with the Number of Dell Service from your system.  Please keep all troubleshooting and discussions on this thread open so that others can find the information they need to solve their problems.

  • Why are these networks 0033, livedoor-web, mobilepoint shows on my wireless network connection

    Why are these networks 0033, livedoor-web, mobilepoint shows on my wireless network connection? At Microsoft this downloaded without my knowledge in my laptop in the network connection and the internet? Are these safe to use and that they cause to slow down the internet connection?

    Your wireless network card is just a receiver (transmitter).  As for a 'normal' radio on which you are listening to music, news, sports, etc., your wireless network card will 'listen' to any nearby wireless network and provide you with a list of these networks:

    Wireless networks that do not require a security password appear with the icon of the shield, as the "linksys" network in the figure above.

    In general, you should only connect to networks that you know are secure: your own, networks that you know the password, or maybe a public network such as those provided by restaurants and other commercial establishments.

    None of the networks that list you are likely to be public networks.  You will not be able to connect (because you do not know the password) or you should not connect because they might be dangerous.

  • Problems connecting to the internet using the wireless network connection

    I can't connect to the internet using my wireless network connection. I had made the diagnosis and he stated that "the DHCP is not enabled for the wireless network connection. I had checked the DHCP, but it has been activated!... Someone would give any suggestion for me to solve the problem?

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type services.msc and press enter . Search The Client DHCP and check if it is enabled or disabled. If disabled then turn it on and see if the problem still persists or not.

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type cmd , and press enter . At the command prompt, type ipconfig/all and press ENTER. Now, check the IP address, default gateway, DNS etc. If you find all the information is correct, but you cannot yet access the Internet so if you connect the wireless network is secure or not. To determine the glance to the wireless network icon in the taskbar, then click on it. It will show you the available wireless networks. If there is a "yellow shield" present on the network icon, the network is not guaranteed, if there is no "yellow shield" does while the network is secure. In a secure network, you might have a "network security key. In this case try to disable the 'Network security key' option for this network. To do this:

    Open Control Panel , click network and Internet , click network and sharing Center , click manage wireless networks on the left.

    In the list select the wireless network and do a right click, select Properties, Security disable tab all options that is, in security type do not select no authentication (Open) and to the type of encryption , select none . You can also activate the automatic connection and SSID settings to further enhance connectivity, on the connection tab, click to select the "connect automatically if this network is in range " and "check boxesto connect even if the network is broadcasting his name (SSID) .

    For more information click here and see how you can determine whether a network is secure or not.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/how-do-I-know-if-a-wireless-network-is-secure

    If the problem still persists, then check your firewall settings and make sure that the firewall is not blocking your Internet connection. Some software Antivirus has a built-in firewall and they block by default all unknown connection to the tightening of security.

    Try to restore Windows Firewall default settings. Open Control Panel click on network and Internet , click system and security , click Windows Firewall , click default settings .

    Hope this will help. Thank you.
