I need help setting up a network between Windows Vista and Windows 7.

• Need help setting up a network home wireless to the working group. I tried everything I read and nothing has worked. I got lost.

  I just received a more recent laptop and wants to set up a network so I can transfer files back.  It seems that it would be a fairly simple network to set up, but obviously I'm missing something.

  It must be a wireless network.  I have a wireless router, two Toshiba laptops, running a Windows 7 and the other runs Windows 10, and I have a printer.  I can access internet with laptops or both if the router does not seem to be the issue.

  I read articles that said I had need of a homegroup, but that did not work.  Then I read an article saying since my computers running different operating systems, that I couldn't use a homegroup that I should use a workgroup.  I followed the instructions given in the article and which don't seem to work either.

  The names of working group on both computers are the same and so are the passwords.  The computer names are different.

  I was on the old computer and when I go into Windows Explorer, under network, I can see the two names listed, however, when I click on the other computer, I get a message saying that the computer is not on the network.  I got the internet service at the time so the router was working.  Another time I tried to copy a small file to the other computer and the message said I didn't have permissions to do so.  I got the same message when I tried to add a folder to the other computer in the network area in Windows Explorer.  I get the same types of messages when I try things peers, while on the new computer.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  So far, since I got the new laptop, I spent nearly three weeks, trying to get things to work.  This seems to be the biggest challenge of all.

  Hello

  Maybe this can help.
  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 .

  Reinstalling Windows XP to the factory setting would not be the first option.

  It is possible that some third-party programs or the services installed on the computer interfere with the installation of service pack 3.

• I followed the instructions to set up the home between my Mac and iPhone sharing 6, but I don't understand all the music on my iPhone

  I followed the instructions to set up the home between my Mac and iPhone sharing 6, but I don't understand all the music on my iPhone

  I have confirmed:

  (1) devices are on the same network

  (2) I am connected to my AppleID with the same account

  3) are my OS up to date (Mac 10.11.2) (9.2 iPhone)
  (3) I closed iTunes and the App has reopened

  (4) I turned my iPhone off and rebooted (and confirms the foregoing)

  On my iPhone, I see in my music library, different ' kind' listed (e.g., classic, recently added, music of the 1990s, etc.) but they are all empty.

  Im hoping to see the music I have in iTunes on my Mac and play these songs on my iPhone.

  IM thinking, music that would be shared from my computer to my phone will be on the cloud?

  (I did not all default to add my music in the cloud at the moment).

• Trying to set up a network with windows 7 Home premium

  I'm trying to set up a network on windows 7 Home premium, but could not find this secpol.msc. I read the posts on the guy with vista home premium and similar problems. I tried the advice given to him:

  Open regedit and locate the key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contrl\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel

  Set this value to 1 (is default on 3) "send LM and NTLM".
  See the Q823659 knowledge base 
  

  I got in the case of the LSA and found no LmCompatibiltyLevel, he was not in the file or it contained a folder with that name.

  I also read a post from someone about windows 7 as follows:

  On Windows 7 Home Premium, secpol.msc or this registry key is set.

  However if you add a new key named LmCompatibilityLevel DWORD value at the specified location and the value of '1' it seems to work to allow
  "Use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated".

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel

  But my problem I do not know what he meant by 'DWORD '.

  If someone could help with this problem, it would be great.

• 'How to' set up a VPN between a UC540 and a SR520 with remote IP extension

  Hi all

  I need help in establishing a link between a head office UC540 and a distance SR520 I want to use a PC and an IP phone in. This remote site is the first of many.

  I found several examples of IPsec VPN site, but none with references to some VLAN voice and data, should I worry or the phone will only work.

  All the tips and suggestions accepted with gratitude,

  Jerry

  Here is an example of configuration LAN-to-LAN VPN between 2 IOS routers:

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/Tech/tk583/TK372/technologies_configuration_example09186a0080194650.shtml

  Assuming that your example:

  VLAN 1 - data - 192.168.19.0/24

  VLAN 100 - voice - 10.1.1.0/24

  And on the other side:

  VLAN 1 - data - 192.168.20.0/24

  VLAN 100 - voice: 10.2.2.0/24

  The crypto ACL would be:

  access-list 150 permit ip 192.168.19.0 0.0.0.255 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255

  access-list 150 permit ip 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 10.2.2.0 0.0.0.255

  Crypto ACLs on the other side are the following:

  access-list 150 permit ip 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 192.168.19.0 0.0.0.255

  access-list 150 permit ip 10.2.2.0 0.0.0.255 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255

• Need help setting up network home (Windows 7 Professional)

  I don't know why I have so much trouble with this.  I think that I never properly put in place a network before.  Usually, I just turn on my router with a password, and then the phone and other devices connect directly to the router.  I just got a new computer with Windows 7 Professional and it is prompting me to create a home network - and have apparently created a new password for the 'network' that is different from the password for the router.  I have a feeling that this will be easy, but I do not get set up correctly.

  First question, in the instructions to configure the network at a time given, was asked if all "clients" had a "wifi protected setup" button

  What is a 'client' on the network?  My router Linksys has one of these buttons (I pushed him, but he could not get connect/setting up with Windows 7).  Is a router from a client?  If so, a client what?  (I do not understand the use of the term client.)

  Here's what I would do.  I have internet entering a cable modem.  Ethernet to the modem router Linksys WRT54G.  (I don't remember the exact model.  It has a button "wifi protection setup.  Ethernet to the router to the desktop.  The router's Ethernet compatible HP printer wifi (which is currently on its own network).  The Windows account has two users (mine, of my wife).  The goal is to have a single network, with the office and the connected printer, and who I can connect with my iPhone.  And I want to be able to print wireless from my iPhone to the printer.

  Here's what I did.  There is a lot of information, but if all goes well it will prevent additional questions.

  I have reset the router and went to the 192.168.1.1. page.  In the Administration tab, I created a new password - which I thought was the password for the network.  I was not the case.  In the wifi tab, I looked for a place to put a password, but could not find one.

  I went on the computer, the network options in Control Panel to add a new network.  I was able to get a new network with the computer (LAN) connected to the router, but I couldn't get wifi to set up.  He told me to press the setting button of protection wifi on the router, but after a long delay, he said that he could not establish a connection.  Finally, I got a message (I don't know how) if I wanted to connect older devices to the network, I need to put a code - 12 letters/numbers with dashes.  I don't know what types of devices called it.  So, I found in managing network a "network key" tab  It was the same code - and it also seemed to work as wifi password.  But I can't change it to something that is possible to remember.

  And I can't do the printer on the same network as the computer.

  I guess I'm going something wrong.  Can someone point me in the right direction?

  It seems that if the printer is in 'ad hoc wireless' mode - it is just sitting there with his wi - fi enabled: indeed, 'here I am; connect to me if you want to print. »

  You need to connect the printer to the network wireless router.  It's pretty easy, but if you want a specific rather than general instructions, please provide the exact model of your HP printer.

  Generically, see--> http://www8.hp.com/us/en/campaigns/wireless-printing-center/printer-setup-help.html , you will probably end by using the option of 3rd or 4th.  In step 4 of the "HP Wireless Assistant', 'the WEP key or a WPA password' is the 'wifi password on the router" - which really, you must configure except if the House really is miles from any other civilization.

  "Referring to the first paragraph above, what I called the mode"ad hoc"seems to be what HP calls impression of"peer-to-peer"."  More specifically, in the FAQ at this link, your printer seems to currently be configured as described in "how to print wireless without a wireless router?

  Although he adds a little more complexity, I highly recommend that - after that you get things market - you read the FAQ section of HP on "a static IP will keep my computer against the loss of communication with my printer wireless."  In an environment with multiple wi - fi devices (for example, several iPhones), if the printer is turned off for a while, when you turn it back on it you will find that your computer will display is no longer her.  Print jobs will appear to work, but nothing will print.  If this situation arises, the solution is this FAQ section.
