Help! No wireless connection

It's probably under the heading of stupid questions, but I need help to fill my wireless connection.

I had a Thinkpad for Christmas.  Already, I have a desktop and a laptop and use a Lynksys router.  I connect the office via the electrician and the laptop wireless.  I have had my Thinkpad 'connect' to the wireless router. In other words, it wll show a 'link' with the wireless router, I am able to turn on and off and use the appropriate security key to use my wireless signal.  However, there is no internet connection.  I just get a page showing no connection.  When I use an electrician directly from my modem to the Thinkpad, I have a connection.

I'm obviously a novice in computer science.  I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you.

  • HELP linksys wireless USB adapter: (model # WUSB54GC) "acquiring network address" not actually connect to the internet! ?? Windows xp pro

    Hello. Ive been at this for 4 days now, I can't find a solution. I'll try to remember as much as possible regarding what ive tried.

    here goes...

    long story short, due to unfortunate system errors, I have reinstalled my OS XP home to xp pro. PC works great now! problem is... now my wireless adapter wont connect to the internet.

    When I had xp home edition installed, I could just plug in the adapter, and a few seconds, it would connect to the favorite network. (with all settings on Auto) no problem.

    now that ive put in OS, it's just cycling "absorbing the network address" infinitely...

    his watch the access point, the preferred network, showing the signal strength and do not show errors in Device Manager. right-click and choosing fix do not work. It gets stuck @ renewing IP address scene. its not send or receive packets under status.

    He EXPECTED to be functional? It uses a 10-digit WEP key.

    Ive tried both the linksys wireless monitor and the windows zero configuration utilites.i since removed the lynksys software screen because it never worked anyway. WZC is that used to work on xp family.

    I used " ipconfig/all" to determine the values of the network on the host pc. I tried manually punching in those values (IP address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS settings, according to the suggestion of a networking of friends) on the adapter wireless itself; using tci/ip options. still does not connect.

    Ive tried different USB ports, all that seems to do is to change the number of the wireless connection.

    It just does not connect to the internet.

    I have the driver I need for this after contacting linksys. I also disabled windows firewall and the firewall/antivirus of 3rd party associated with the network.

    He knows questions w / windows xp professional and this particular wireless adapter? (WUSB54GC) that's the only reason why I can think of that is not connected.

    what I forget? internet hard wiring of an ethernet port is not an option because there is no ethernet card installed in the pc.

    any help is greatly appreciated in advance.

    Thank you.

    Sorry it took so long for me to return.

    It was a setting under working group which had to be adjusted from reinstalling windows. (something that has been disabled I forgot, don't remember what it was since its been like 3 weeks)

    that he got the running dhcp... That is to say. allowed 4 dependence to work progrmas, boom, problem solved.

    the adapter now works with the automatic settings, using WEP encryption. as it should, and it was.

    Thank you very much for the replies, I appreciated the help.

    I can not make a wireless connection for my printer, using a Macbook Pro (osx v10.9). I used to have one until I changed my router and now unable to connect. I tried the router WPS button and using the initial report of installation CD supplied with the printer but still nothing. 'More'. on my mac airport utility cannot find the printer (and yes the wireless on my printer button is flashing blue and I checked that I use the most up-to-date software for the printer).

  • Need help with Photosmart C4795 Wireless Connection

    What I have: HP Photosmart C4795

    What I use: Macbook OSX 10.9.5, wireless network with WEP security, running, I'm not sure if I have WPS or not (don't know how to say or use it)

    Problem: I used it as a wireless printer without problem for the past five years.  Recently, I moved and cannot find out how to configure the wireless connection.  USB connection works fine.  I still have the installation software, and as far as I can tell, it is updated (I'm not positive however.)  When I run the HP Installation Wizard, I've got to the point where I select "Set up for wireless" and the HP installation wizard crashes every time.  I scoured the forums and have found conflicting advice about this problem.  Someone please give me a clear answer. is there something I can do to get the job of wireless or no wireless capability is no longer works with Mac OS x 10.8 or superior?

    Ah ha! I thought about it.  For anyone who uses an ATT Uverse router, maybe that's your problem.  My router is a NVG589 of Arris.  I don't know about other routers, but I guess that's the same thing.  These routers are capable of WPS, but their default settings have the WPS is off.

    You have to

    1 access to the properties of your router via a web browser (Safari, Internet Exploere, Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.) to the address http://192.168.1.254/mdc
    "2 click on 'Edit your settings or wireless security'", you will need the code printed at the bottom of your router.
    3. turn on the 'Wireless Protected Setup (WPS)'

    From there, you should be able to follow the Setup instructions for printers WPS enabled found here: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02273853

    This next set of instructions is specifically for anyone who has a Mac and running the version OS x 10.9 or higher.  (If you don't know how to check this, click on the apple icon in the upper left corner of your screen.  Select "About this Mac" a box will appear with the information of OS x).

    Select Mac OS X.

    Select the third option OSX v10.10 Yosemite, Mavericks Xv10.9 OS and OS X v10.9 Mountain Lion.

    Select Option 1: Wireless Installation (EVEN IF YOU ALREADY HAVE IT CONNECTED VIA USB.)

    Skip the second step and proceed directly to step three.

    Select the second method: install the software using Apple software updates

    Follow the instructions for the method of the push button.

    I hope this helps for those who had as many problems as me!

  • IM problems with my wireless connection, it says my DNS server does not respond, what is this, can help to somone, thanks

    IM problems with my wireless connection, it says my DNS server does not respond, what is this, can help to somone, thanks

    Hello

     

    Thanks for posting the question in the Microsoft Community!

    You can't use the wireless connection and the message that the DNS server is not responding.

    The problem may occur if the computer is unable to connect to the DNS server.

    To check, I suggest you follow the steps:

    Method 1: Re-register the DNS

     

    a. Click Start. Type cmd in the search box and press ENTER.

    b. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
    ipconfig/flushdns (there is a space between ipconfig and /)

    It will display the message properly emptied the cache of DNS resolution.

    c. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
    ipconfig/registerdns (there is a space between ipconfig and /)

    d. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

    ipconfig/all (there is a space between ipconfig and /)
    The command ipconfig/all command displays for all your network adapters, TCP/IP in Windows settings.

    If your IP address of your Local network connection is 0.0.0.0 or 169.x.x.x (where x is a number any), then your computer does not receive an IP address from router.
    If this is the case, try this:

    i. enough at the command prompt ipconfig and press ENTER

    II. ipconfig / renew in command prompt and press ENTER

    The test again by typing ipconfig/all to see what is the address? (If you are on a router, it should start by or 192.168.0.x or 192.168.1.x 10.x.x.x)

    Method 2:

    a. click Start and then click Control Panel.

    b. go to the networking and sharing Center and then click on change adapter settings.

    c. right-click on connection to the Local network and select Properties.

    d. Select Internet Protocol Version 6, and then click Properties.

    e. choose the DNS server to obtain an address automatically , then press Ok.

    f. Select obtain IP address automatically.

    g. Repeat steps for Internet Protocol version 4 as well.

  • Bluetooth wireless connection

    MacBookPro OSX El Capitan; Version 10.11. Retina display - MacBookPro connects to the printer HP C6150 help electrician with no problems. not then attempt to use the bluetooth connection.

    To a printer wireless connection works using old MacBook. Bluetooth connects to the mouse and works very well.

    Select the Bluetooth device-

    The computer icon shows - not connected

    Apple mouse - connected

    Hello analyst.1,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I understand that you can print from your MacBook Pro to your HP using Ethernet and wireless printer, but not via Bluetooth. I know how it is important to ensure that you can connect to your printer via Bluetooth. I'll be more than happy to help you with this.

    Use OS X El Capitan: Add or remove a printerand make sure you have the latest version of the software installed and printer connection instructions, specifically, this section:

    Add a Bluetooth printer

    1. Update your software: choose the Apple menu > App Store, click updates, and then install the listed software updates. Even if no updates appear, this ensures that OS X has the latest information on printing software you can download from Apple. If you don't do this, you see a message that software is not available when you connect your printer.

      If you have a printer AirPrint, you have no need to check the software updates.

    2. Prepare your printer: use the instructions that came with your printer to unpack the printer, install the ink or toner and add paper. Turn on the printer and make sure it is not the display of errors.

    3. Connect your printer: follow the instructions that came with your printer to make sure it is ready to connect through Bluetooth. You must also make sure to activate Bluetooth and set up the printer Bluetooth as a new device.

    After connecting your printer, if you see a message prompting you to download new software, be sure to download and install it. OS X will automatically use AirPrint if your printer supports.

    Have a great day!

  • How to configure a printer wireless connected to Time Capsule?

    I just bought a printer HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M577z MFP Flow. It has capabilities of wireless printing. So far, I was able to connect wirelessly to one of my MacBook Pro computers, but only by having the printer create an Ad - hoc network that allows up to 5 devices to connect to the printer. But that of not what I want because every computer should manually disconnect the Wi - Fi network, connect to the Ad hoc network, the print job and then reconnect to the Wi - Fi network whenever a print job is required. It is very difficult and frustrating.

    What I would like is striking is the printer act like a network printer by wireless connection to my Time Capsule. I can't connect the printer to the USB port of time Capsule because they are far away from each other, and I don't want to use cables throughout my place. But I have no idea on how to do it because I can't find this option in the menu of the writer or configuration of the United Nations the HP utility software.

    I hope someone here could help me, please. Thank you!

    I have an Epson printer, so some of my experiences may or may not apply.

    I also have a time Capsule, and my printer and Time Capsule are far apart.

    My current configuration looks exactly what you are looking for: a wireless network provided by Time Capsule than all my Apple devices to a wireless connection, and my printer connects to the same wireless network.

    When I first bought the Epson printer, I needed to connect it to the Capsule of time via a USB port.  This sounds as if it were true for you as well.  So, for this very short period. I moved the printer via the USB port next to the printer, the connected Time Capsule, made the setup and then the printer recognized my standard wireless network.  I've returned to steady state, which I use now, with the printer and the far (actually on different floors) Time Capsule.

  • Portege 4000 - Installed W2K - wireless connection problem

    I installed W2K the Portege 4000. XP was too heavy a resource for this system.

    After you install the network driver wireless Cisco (3.5.13.0) of your Web site, I am unable to get a wireless connection. In XP this comes automatically with an icon. The network device switch that I also installed did not help.

    Although LAKE 2 is activated this still does not pick up wireless.

    Any ideas?

    Hello @adityarai82,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support! The forums are a great place where you can find solutions for your problems, with the help of the community!

    I read your post about the WiFi problem and wanted to help you!  I understand that you have tried the troubleshooting steps a lot already, without success.

    Try to review these steps, offered by community member @Great-Christine-Tree:

    First of all, we have a step by step guide to guide you through the process of diagnosis here:
    Troubleshooting your wireless network and Internet access

    A second option is to try the following steps:
    Powercycle the network:
    1. turn off your laptop.
    2. unplug the power to your router.
    3. disconnect the power to your modem.
    4. wait at least 45 seconds.
    5 reconnect the modem and wait for it to come back online.
    6 plug in the router and wait for it to come back online.
    7. turn on your laptop and test your connection.

    Turn off the power to the adapter:
    1. open Device Manager. (Win Key + R > type devmgmt.msc > OK)
    2. expand the network adapters.
    3. right click on the Ethernet adapter / wireless, and then click Properties.
    4. click on the power management tab.
    5 remove the check mark next to allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
    6. click on OK.
    7 test cycle.

    Reset the TCP/IP settings on your PC:
    1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
    2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
    3. in the window that opens type "netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt" without the quotes and press ENTER.
    4 restart your PC and test.

    It can also help to reset the winsock catalog:
    1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
    2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
    3. in the window that opens type "netsh winsock reset" without the quotes, and then press ENTER.
    4 restart your PC and test.

    Reinstall the NIC drivers:
    1. download the drivers from here , but do not run them again.
    2. go to your Start menu/screen and type Device Manager.
    3. expand network adapters.
    4. right click on the wireless adapter and choose uninstall.
    5 install the drivers downloaded in step 1.
    6. restart your PC and test.

    Test an ethernet connection:
    Explicit. Test if the problem persists on a wired connection to the adapter hardware troubleshooting wireless can be directed to the appropriate areas.

    Test another connection:
    Many people excluded their home network as a problem if another device working on the same network. Networking is not as simple as that. Each device interacts differently with your router or modem and it is impossible to exclude the settings for this device until the laptop has been tested on another network.

    If these steps do not resolve the problem, try this document published by Microsoft for network management issues: wired and wireless network problems. You can change the operating system with the drop-down list in the upper right of the document.

    Source: fixes Common for wireless connectivity problems.

    Please let me know if this information helps you solve the problem by marking this message as 'accept as Solution', this will help others easily find the information they seek.  In addition, by clicking on the Thumbs up below is a great way to say thank you!

    Have a great day!

  • WT200 3G - manager says wireless connection is off

    Can someone please. I have a Tablet WT200 and try to use/installation of the component of the 3G...
    But the wireless connection manager continues to tell me that the radio is turned off.

    There is no switch and I've searched the net for a solution but I have seen the same question but not the answer.

    Help me! PLEASE, I BEG YOU!

    Does not WT200 Tablet contain a physical switch to turn on WLan. You must ensure that the communications function wireless (in Win 7 settings) is enabled!

    You can do this in the start menu-> Control Panel-> network and internet-> network and sharing Center
    Here, press Set new connection or a network

    At least, you should go to: start-> all programs-> Toshiba-> network & connectivity-> Wlan indicator settings
    and may display the State of the Wlan connection system

  • Loss of wireless connection casual on satellite C660-115

    Hey,.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite c660 (2.5 years now, I think) and I have problems with my wireless connection (for 3 weeks now).
    Never had any problems with my connection before.

    When I use my laptop + - every hour my laptop disconnects Internet and immediately connects again.
    My computer is often used for playing games online and after 3 weeks, it's starting to annoy me, because I need to restart the whole game etc...

    Now, I have already updated all my WLAN drivers, I have the latest version of the BIOS update, and I adapted my energy profile settings to make sure that my computer is not turning off my wireless connection.

    I really think that the problem is on my computer because I have the same problem on 2 different networks.
    Don't know what to do, I hope someone can help me.
