Guest account not recognize wireless networks

I try to get the guest on my Surface RT account to connect to a wireless network. So far, other accounts, such as my personal account, work very well and I can browse the internet, but when I switch to the built-in Windows 8.1 guest account, it shows that there is no network connectivity at all. In the bar of charms, I select settings and the network not available poster icon. If I select this icon to display the wireless networks, it shows that I am connected to my wireless network and it says "connected". I've disabled the Wi - Fi through this menu and reconnected, but when I use other apps, they tell me that I am not connected to the internet. Any thoughts?

Since Windows XP, guest accounts have not been allowed to initiate an Internet connection. This is a security measure, and I don't think that this is changed in Windows 8.

However, if an Internet connection is already present, the guest account can use.

So, if you want to give access to the Internet Guest account, follow these steps:

  1. To connect to the Internet using a classic account.
  2. Without disconnection, let the guest account login.

Given that the Internet connection is already in place, the guest account will be able to use it.

    Hello

    The Windows 7 RC Device Manager does not recognize my wireless network adapter (for example: Atheros, Intel or Realtek). I tried to install all the Toshiba support drivers, but none of them work:

    After installation, they ask me to connect the unit to my computer (of course it is still on the motherboard!).

    =>, Is there a way to know what is my Wifi adapter?

    that one failed: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD7201PO000SR01.htm (this is the only Word to say "network adapter" with a yellow exclamation point).

    -Online someone knows when will be released Windows 7 drivers on the website?

    Hello

    Before you begin to install all drivers WLAN you can find on the Toshiba site you must make sure that wireless network card, you have exactly. You can check in the Device Manager-online properties-online Details of the local network adapter device.
    Need you an information like PCI\VEN_XXXX & DEV_XXXX

  • Why Satellite L300-10 q does not recognize wireless network

    This new laptop works well on a wired LAN but does not recognize a wireless local area network. Received the message no network found. In the same room with another PC laptop Toshiba the wireless LAN is located and has good signal strength.
    The wireless LAN switch is on and the 'antenna' pictogram led burns red.

    Seems that it is not configured for detection. No idea how to solve this problem?

    Hello

    You´re sure you checked all THE settings? I mean, if the local wired network works and the wireless is enabled, you need to check all the parameters available that could be done. One idea would be to check the L300 on another access point to make sure that the problem persists on different brands of wireless routers.

    Please check this first and make sure that your settings are all on "automatic" so if you do not find the reason, come back and we will try to find another solution.

  • Portege R100: WLAN does not recognize the network

    I have a 2 year old Toshiba R100 Notebook.
    It has a wireless adapter:

    Intel (r) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter

    We have tried several times and had technicians trying to connect to our WAP network office. He simply do not recognize the network and we offer all mailboxes menu to connect. It works fine on WEP networks and open.
    Our network is one: -.

    Cisco Linksys Access Point Wireless-G with SRX, model WAP54GX

    It has been suggested that I have buy a wireless card for WAP networks put in the slot of the card.

    Would you agree?

    If so, then that one would you recommend?

    Hello

    It seems that the card supports only WEP encryption and cannot handle WAP encryption that secures the WLan network.
    Fact is that encryption depends on hardware and not software. This means that if the card doesn t supports the Protocol WAP for the update of the driver will not change this situation, but only a replacement card.
    So I agree with you that the replacement card may solve your problem.

    Unfortunately, I can't give you any recommendations because I m not 100% sure what card uses the WAP protocol, but you can order the Wlan card compatible and supported by the Toshiba service partner in your country. AFAIK the guy order the Toshiba parts directly.

    Hello

    If there is no possibility try test your WLAN functionality with another network wireless (friend or maybe in your company). On this path, you should be sure if the problem occurs only with your WLAN.

    Try to install the driver for your WIRELESS Intel network card. You can find it under http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=1847&lang=eng

  • Airport extreme will reconnect not extended wireless network

    The power to my Airport Express (2nd version; 802.11n) has been inadvertently disconnected and it does not now restore for extended wireless network.  I have an Airport Extreme (802.11ac) that hosts the network.  I have soft, hard, and factory resets to the Express.  Airport utility says that an "unexpected error occurred, try again."  I have, over and over again.  Airport utility finds the Express after a reset.  After initial connect failure, I brought the two devices in the same room.  Should I reset the extreme as well and start over?  V10.11.3 OS X, v. 6.3.6 Airport utility.  Thanks for your help.

    At this point, I would say that you make the Express in the same room as the extreme. Go ahead and perform a reset on the only default Express. Wait for it to finish.

    You should now be able to 'see' the Express in the list menu drop-down airport the two OS X menu bar and on your Mac AirPort Utility. In the menu bar is should appear as something like Apple network NNNNNN. It should appear as a Terminal AirPort Express, AirPort Utility.

    If you get the message "unexpected error", check the following on your Mac:

    • Make sure that IPv6 is configured for: link-local only. You can find this setting in system preferences > network > advanced > Ethernet or Wi - Fi (according to your Mac is connected to the network) > configure IPv6
    • If your Mac is connected to the extreme by Ethernet, activate the Wi - Fi connector in system preferences > network
  • Satellite L500-207 will not find wireless networks

    My laptop cannot identify wireless networks at all and I don't know how to fix it. Everything works fine and I'm aware wireless is turned on and anti-virus scans were clean.

    First of all, the problem occurred after I have reset default DNS for the DNS to google so I wonder if this is what caused the problem.

    I would be very happy any assistance that could be given in the resolution of this problem.

    > My laptop cannot identify wireless networks at all and I don't know how to fix it.

    Does that mean exactly? You can see your WLan or you see another WLan in the neighborhood?
    If you can't see any WLan then this means that the card wireless network is not correctly enabled in this case use FN + F8 to activate the WLan.

    In addition, check the settings of TCP/IP to the wireless network.
    In Protocol TCP/IP properties, you can find the settings as all these parameters must be set to automatically assign the IP address.

    Please take a look here:

    Please consider an update of the BIOS too often older BIOS may cause problems of compatibility with WLan and should be updated too!
