Internet disconnects and cannot find wireless network periodically. I have to restart to fix it temporarily.

SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!  I have a very old laptop, since 2002, I think, that is running XP Home. Recently my laptop started to cut all of a sudden and then cannot find the wireless network. I know that this is not the WiFi because my other laptop works very well. When I restart the laptop, it works up until I try to download something and sometimes turns off while I'm browsing. I have a RTL8185 wireless card, which I replaced it with the same model. Still no change. I spent weeks in different forums, try to understand this point, and I don't have a chance.

I thank very you much for your time. I called my ISP and he told me to try restoring the system to determine if it was the settings or if it was the hardware. Instead, I decided to search the Internet how to speed up my network because Chrome was really slow on the cell affected.

I happened to run across this Web site
When I disabled all protocols except TCP/IP Protocol, the network WORKED! Now the Internet works, I can download large files and browse shared files with the same speed as my other laptop!
I hope this can help someone else with this problem!

  • DMA2100 cannot find wireless networks

    Hello

    I just unpacked it 3 DMA2100 to use at home with my HTPC. I started to configure the first DMA2100 but are struggling to find my wireless network.

    A network is found, and it's the ISP´s Internet router that goes right in the Internet (and so I don't want to use ).

    I connected the DMA2100 to a wired gigabit port and configured it and did the firmware upgrade to the latest firmware (. 12).

    I then rebooted the DMA2100 and retried to search for networks. Same problem, only my ISP´s router appears.

    Then, I turned off the router ISP´s (thinking maybe it's a bug that shows just the first available wireless network), restarted the DMA2100 and tried again. No networks where found.

    I have 4 laptops in the House all are my two wireless networks and use them successfully. I have 3 Xbox 360 that uses wireless and find all networks with success. I have a PS3 which is all networks and use them successfully. In addition, on most devices, my neighbours networks shows (two) on all other devices, depending on where I place it upward.

    Not on the DMA2100 tho.

    My personal router in the House is a D-Link (curse) DIR-855. I can't say I m satisfied with it, but I had no problem with other devices connected to it. The SSID broadcast is turned on and I ve never seen not see if friends up or so come with their laptops.

    I seriously need some advice and support to get this working. What can I do to make these DMA2100 find my wireless network?

  • Qosmio G30-182: Drops Wlan connection & then cannot find wireless networks

    I use currently v.11.1.0.100 driver for Intel(r) Pro/Wireless 3945ABG, which is the last driver I found here at Toshiba.

    My problem is that I lose my wifi connection, randomly my home wlan (using WEP protection) and my University (WPA-Enterprise). After the connection drops, it is impossible to find all nodes wlan unless I reboot.

    Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? It is a bit frustrating to have to restart randomly because I need my network connection!

    It's OK, it s good to hear that a BIOS update solved your problem. :)

    Hope that this wireless broadcast could be resolved with the same procedure on other models of the machine.

    Error message:

    All changes to your system until the problem occurred:

    I was looking for a solution anywhere, including the hp Web site and forum and manual PDFs.

    I have a problem to connect to internet wireless (I can connect using a cable). The wireless button is on (seeing the key F12 is blue), but "Intel My WIFI utility" tells me that the "hardware radio switch off." I was looking for the switch on the case and sought a shortcut to do this - but could not find.

    As a result - my laptop cannot recognize any wireless connection, even if they exist for sure!

    I also used Microsoft System Restore to restore to an earlier date - before the problem accrued. There was no difference.

    Also, I reinstalled the drivers wireless Intel, Intel PROSet and my WIFI for Microsoft Windows 7. It does not help either.

    Help, please!

    I managed to fix it!

    I had to get into the BIOS and enable the network card in there!

    Hi Tatiana,

    ·         Have you tried to install the drivers from the manufacturer's Web site?

    ·         Have you checked if the network card works on another computer?

    Download drivers card network from the manufacturer's website and check manually.

    http://www.TRENDnet.com/downloads/list_subcategory.asp?SUBTYPE_ID=1353

    Alternatively, you can deal with this problem due to security software. I suggest that disable you the security like anti-virus and firewall software and check if the problem persists.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Call the helpline for the manufacturer of your network adapter. It is likely that neither Windows nor the router have problems, it's just a matter of getting the configuration on both put in place settings to work properly together. The manufacturer of the router will be the best resource to learn how to configure their device.

  • Computer laptop Windows 7 can not find wireless network connections

    My Samsung RV510's laptop had windows 7 on front and without wire worked but recently my hard drive for this laptop broke and I had to get a new HARD drive. Now I have a new one that I installed windows 7 on it and now it cannot find wireless network connections even if there is a broadband router in the same room as the laptop. When I try to connect to a wireless network, the computer does not find.

    You have turned on WiFi?  Have you checked Device Manager to see if your wireless network card has a driver?  The different procedure for Urning edited that WiFi on East and model, so you for each brand will have to read your user guide - I promise he won't give you the leprosy!  :-)  To check the driver, click Start and right click on computer, then click Properties.  Click on Device Manager and look for the entry that says that the network cards.  Click the arrow to the left and look to see if

    There is a! or? next to him.  If so, you must download the driver appropriate from your manufacturer.

  • Satellite A100-495 - Intel 3945abg wireless network card cannot find wifi networks

    Greetings,

    I have some problems with networks wireless on my laptop Satellite A100-495.

    The problem is: my wireless adapter (intel / pro 3945abg) doesn't seem to find wireless networks. If I portable place very close to my router wireless (such as 1 m) - connection can be established. If I move away (~ 5 m)-no connection or 'very bad' quality and constantly broken. Other notebooks I've tried still have "very good" quality at the same range.

    This happens with other routers as well. And I can not any sign of wi - fi in my Uni (my colleagues have no problem with their machines).

    I tried to play up with some parameters. Reinstalled adapter. Downloaded the latest drivers. Nothing helps.

    A tip? Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    Something like that happened to me a long time ago.
    I used the Wlan configuration option to own Windows. For several months, I use the Intel Proset configuration utility to establish the WiFi connection!
    It works!

    In addition, I have disabled the power Wlan option in the Wlan card properties save and adjust the intensity of the signal at top. I remember, in the advanced properties, you can find the 802.11 option preamble. The value is Long and short on my laptop.

  • Equium - cannot find all networks to connect

    Not very computer savvy so will try to explain the problem as best I can.

    I can connect to my internet connection via ethernet cable, but cannot connect wireless (although I have before).

    The wireless function is enabled and the orange light comes on. When I open connectivity doctor and go on the radar screen, my internet connection appears (along with a few others)
    When I hover over the connection icon at the bottom of the screen, it says that "wireless connections are available", but when I click it it establishes that "windows cannot find any network" then understand that there must be an easy way to solve this problem, it can not find all networks to log, mine or one of my neighbors!

  • Windows cannot find any networks, but Ubuntu can! (X 32 Vista Home Premium)

    I recently replaced a faulty laptop computer mother board with an identical model (only difference is a newer version of the BIOS). After restarting Windows (Vista Home Premium 32 bit) I can't find the networks wireless where I can see usually eight networks at least an unsecured connection, but now I get nothing.

    I replaced the wireless card Atheros with an Intel Pro 3945ABG driver and installed the latest version and that I still get the same error "Windows cannot find any networks", I can get access to the internet via an Ethernet cable but I am unable to connect wirelessly. If I try to manually configure the wireless connection, I get "unexpected error occurred".

    I started the system from a CD of Ubuntu to check that it was not a hardware problem. Wireless card perfectly, sees all the networks, connects and works very well.

    It seems that something inside Vista has failed since even change the wireless adapter for a different manufacturer and the results of the modeling in the same error, pointers?

    Kind regards

    Jason.

    SOLVED

    It turns out that Kaspersky Internet Security is at fault and he was very happy to work via ethernet it had mutilated all WLAN connections.

    Removal of Kaspersky and all of a sudden all the wireless networks have re-emerged.
