Home wireless network users can no longer connect to the internet via router, but can connect to the network

Modem Arris Touchstone telephony Windows Vista on PC, router Linksys WRT54G2, Netwk disk, Set netwk as private.

My father's home network no longer works. All Pc's are running Vista. DSL is connected to the Modem Arris. Modem is connected by ethernet to the LinksysWRT54G2 router, that is connected to the PC. Other Pc is able to connect to the local network, but not to the internet. Main PC connects to the internet with a separate connection. See the other PC on the network. Daddy has no save the password and can not get him out of Linksys.

Never mind. After 6 hours I fixed it. I don't know how I did it, but I think it was because I have unplugged and pressed the reset button on the modem for 10 seconds.

    Hello

    Check the firewall it is maybe it has been reset.

    In general.

    Most laptops have a physical switch for the wireless card. Read the manual of the computer and make sure that the wireless adapter is on.

    Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_dm.jpg

    If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

    Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_connection_tcp.jpg

    Make sure that if there is Wireless Utility a utility vendor is not running with the native Windows wireless utility.

    Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.

    Above everything is OK and it connects to the wireless router. Log in from any computer which is, or can be connected to the router with a wire wireless, disable wireless security, make sure that the wireless streaming is enabled and try to connect with no. wireless security.

    When the work turns on the Wireless security.

    Note * people sometimes make mistakes in writing and retype the password for security.

    Another way is to copy in the menu of the router and then paste it when asked of the wireless card.

    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

  • Home wireless network connections cut - a router issue?

    I have 2 PC:

    1 desktop running XP (SP3) on a H61DE/S3 Asrock mobo and Intel G620 2.6ghz CPU. RAM = 2 x 2 GB.
    2. laptop running Windows 7 + Intel i3 CPU
    3 wireless router D-Link DSL-2680 =
    The office is directly connected to the router via an ethernet cable wireless.
    I created a wireless network which consists of my office and cell phones with the help of a USB and the XP Wizard on my desk. I then clicked on "Network Setup Wizard" in the Control Panel on my desktop (XP) and created the network connections.
    When I boot-up the two machines, I can see and access the connections network of desktop and laptop.
    HOWEVER, if I let the machines for a while and then come back, although I can see the icon for "DESKTOP" in my network places on my laptop, when I click the icon, the cursor looks like this market, but then an error window appears stating that it cannot find the device and I want to diagnose the connection. When I click YES, sometimes, it detects the OFFICE and sometimes it doesn't.
    The same thing happens on the desktop when I click on the "PORTABLE computer" icon in "My Network places".
    The strange thing is, when I try to connect via Start Menu / run / \\'IP address on the laptop or desktop, I can connect usually either to the PC.
    The questions are
    1 can you explain why I should b affected by these connection question - is this a problem of compatibility between window7 and XP?
    2. what type of home network, maintained by the router or directly between the laptop and desktop computer without involving the router?
    Thank you
    I assume that the HOMEDESKTOP, in this case, XP is the master browser because it is physically connected to the router and it is this machine that I created the wireless network and local.

    N ° master of domain is chosen in an election.  All devices have an equal chance of being elected little matter how they are connected. (A domain controller can always win, but that's neither here nor there).  The problem here is that the Win 7 machine doesn't listen to the broadcasts and therefore think that it is the only device on the network and therefore chooses himself as master of go.  The XP machine is involved in a normal election except that the Win 7 machine does not participate because he is not listening.  They both choose and for a while, you have two masters to browse.  The only listening to computer (XP) finally gets tired of hearing machine Win7 and abandoned as a master browser.  Win 7 becomes the only browser then, but it does not work because he doesn't listen to any computer on the network.  You can check this by bringing a window prompt (start-> Run-> "cmd") and enter the command:
    nbtstat - a HOMEDESKTOP
    or
    nbtstat - a ROMANLAP1-PC
    If the targen computer thinks that he is a master of travel, you will see a line "__MSBROWSE__".

    For some reason, keeping the folders "My Documents" opened on both machines maintained the connection for 15 hours that day.

    Anyway that you can keep the active connection, the machines will partner with the other.  Once a connection is idling, then it must re-establish contact and is when the master browser or a response of diffusion is necessary and the Win 7 machine is unresponsive.

  • Laptop will not connect to my home wireless network

    I've had my laptop for a few months and my home network wireless also. My laptop has always worked perfectly until last night, I was in the living room and my phone cut because it ran out of battery. I went to restart, and when I did, NO network could be found, and several others usually appear outside my home network. The wireless switch is turned on and I rebooted the computer several times, I ran the wizards and shooters of boredom, I started the wireless zero configuration, but nothing happens. everything he says is "wireless networks could not be found", and when I click on the message, a black box appears with a message saying "windows has encountered an illegal instruction. I don't know what to do. my laptop model is a Sony Vaio, but that's what I know. My ipod connects to the wireless perfectly, so I know its my laptop that needs fixing.

  • Home wireless network connection problems

    What should I do if I normally connect to the wireless network does not appear?  It is not a network card problem, because I can connect to other wireless and school and other places.  I tried to reset the router, ping and by unplugging and seeing what I could understand on the computer at home, but nothing does.  Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Have you tried other computers to connect to your router? You use both wire and wireless
    connection?

    Unplug the modem and Router 3 + minutes. And then reconnect the modem - when it is running
    Plug in the router - when it is running - restart the computer. This is known as a hard reset.

    Check with your router manufacturer support.

    Hi EWQuince,

    The information you have given it seems that the printer is not on the same network as the computer. If the printer was on the same network as the computer, the IP address would be 192.168.1 instead of 192.168.33. You must run the printer Wireless Setup Wizard and make sure that you connect it to a network, the computers are connected. Once you have the printer connected to the same network all your problems should be solved.
