• Connection Internet says 'Local' only and I can't access the internet at my convenience.

  I'm not a computer genius, but I know that's not my wireless which is mess up and not allow me to access internet from my laptop.  If I try to access my home, or somewhere else that provides wireless internet, I always have trouble getting.  IF it connects, it shows 'Local' only and not allow me to access the internet.  It seems to do this when I am on the internet while someone else in my household is on it as well.  Which shouldn't be a problem at all.  I should be able to access the internet if someone else uses it or not.  Never had this problem until I got this new laptop with vista.  It lasts for almost a year now and I'm taking classes online and cannot deal with this problem any longer.  Please someone help me solve this ongoing problem that seems to be quite common!

  Try without commitment TCP/IPv6:

  If you still have internet connection probs, one thing to try is the separation of the TCP/IPv6 (which is done by going to network connection > right click > properties > it uncheck > OK.)

  I'm portable computer maintenance of the customer, a Toshiba Satellite L305-S5885, under Vista Home Premium x 86 SP2, with infections by malicious software and internet connection problems.

  Guys, I'm really hitting my head against the wall on this one, and I would be VERY happy for any help through this. Thank you!

  I thought about it, there was a corrupted installation of Norton 360, the origin of the problem. I've used the Norton removal tool and voila! Internet! Thank you.

• WRT120N Wireless laptop connected to the router, but does not connect to internet

  I have a HughesNet HN9000 modem connected to a Linksys WRT120N router. I have two desktop computers, both running XP Home, connected to the router via ethernet .5e cables and work perfectly. I have a laptop running Vista Home Premium, I am trying to connect to the internet via the internal wireless card. According to me, the laptop connects with the wireless router, as it connects but says 'Local only' - it won't let me access the router IP/control panel. I tried to reset the router / modem as well as the parameters of the laptop, but I keep getting the same question.

  If I connect the laptop and the port #3 on the router via a cable .5e I can browse the Internet. But I need to be able to use the laptop throughout the House so electrician is not an option.

  I found this article which directed me to this download , which worked. If your help is most needed. Thanks anyway.

• A cable is not plugged into the network adapter 'connection to the Local network.

  Hi, I am using a Dell Inspiron E1505... OS: Vista... 32 bit... IE 9...

I have made several attempts to fix using the "Microsoft fix - it Center... didn't help me..." also "diagnose and repair" on my laptop... no positive results... In the window "Network & sharing" "also shows a red X... Please advise... Best regards, John

  Hello

  Reading between the lines a bit here, it is my understanding...

  1. Never use Ethernet, probably because you don't have broadband for some reason any?
  2. Due to the size of the download, you asked someone else to do it with no broadband?
  3. As a result, which is two screens with a red X icon, but never used to be there?

  This icon with the red X is only informative. If you do not use Ethernet then you won't have connected cable, which means that the information you see on "network cable is unplugged" is correct. If you don't like this icon, you can hide...

  • Right-click on an empty part of the taskbar, and then click Properties
  • Click the Notification area
  • You will see a check box for the network, there uncheck and then click OK to hide the icon
  • Reverse this process, if you want to display the icon

  Or is your problem you can connect is no longer with dial upward? If this is the case...

  • Click Start, type inetcpl.cpl and press enter
  • Click the Connections tab
  • 'Never make a connection' values? If this is the case, always select "default connection" (or "Number using whenever a network connection is not present")
  • Click OK

• My connection to the Local network is suddenly missing

  Hello

  Suddenly, I found I can't access my LAN port because I can't found the option to connect to the Local network in network and sharing Center. I also looked in Device Manager, but there is also the LAN card is missing. I don't know why it's happening. The only change I made is configured LAN properties as set as--> advanced--> liaison & duplex speed--> 100 Mbit/s/full duplex. Although I don't know if it has nothing to do with my lack of LAN option, but that's the only change that I made before I see my LAN is missing. then I reinstalled my windows 7 with the hope that it will be recovered, but after the installation of a new windows 7 the problem still persists and also I am very sure that my operating system windows 7 is all ok to install all drivers base because I used the same OS disk for countless times.

  Kindly help me how to solve this problem, because I can't use any Ethernet connection in my computer.
  Thanks in advance...

  The total absence of the adapter is a hardware problem.  Is this a desktop or a laptop? If Office on the motherboard or card adapter?  If it is a laptop or onboard there may be an option to enable / disable in the BIOS which might be worth checking out.

  Hey,.

  The drivers that you downloaded are WLAN Card and has nothing to do with the connection to the local network (Ethernet) normal

  I think you should check the Web from Toshiba site to download the latest LAN driver. You can find the drivers for Satellite Pro A40 in * archives *.

• Satellite A105-4114 will not recognize the connection to the local network

  Whenever I plug my cable ethernet to ethernet port on my laptop, the ethernet port does not recognize my cable, even if the lights are flashing. I updated my LAN driver a week ago, and it has not really helped. My internet service is provided by my apartment complex at the school, but I don't think it has anything to do with it, because I had this problem last year living in dorms and at home. I have to restart my computer everytime for my computer to recognize the connection to the local network. Can someone help me please?

  Driver: Intel (r) PRO/1000 PL Network Connection

  Wireless connection works fune.

  Hello

  First of all, you should check your LAN cable.
  Sometimes the laptop may not be correctly connected to the LAN as a result of a defective cable.
  In addition, you should check if the network card is properly recognized in Device Manager. He should t be a yellow exclamation!
  In addition, you must check the settings for the TCP/IP protocol in the LAN card properties.
  TCP/IP must be set to automatic. I assume that you are connected to a server and the server supports supported a range of IP addresses and assigns it automatically.

  Last but not least check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS.

• Post updated to SP3 and IE 8, some systems cannot connect to the local network

  A number of machines on my LAN that have recently been fixed to the last State (installed XP SP3, IE 8 and all dry and updated crit) seemed to lose all capacity for networking.

  Device Manager displays all problems, systems were released in market, on a a system restore was performed at a week back but the problem persists. They will not collect a DHCP, our work with a fixed IP address.

  They can only be connected with the local administrator account - domain accounts will not work

  The event log is giving nothing away - very curious!

  I'll try to include measures:

  1 netsh winsock reset (reboot)

  2 netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt (reboot) http://support.microsoft.com/kb/299357/

  3 Uninstall SP3

  I would avoid if possible reconstruction so I welcme possible any other suggestions as to the cause or corrections

  Turned out to be a problem with the site switch - switch reboot solved the problem

• Impossible to connect to the wireless network when the wireless Internet is filled to connect to the Local network

  I tried to fill the connection between my laptop Wi - Fi and an ethernet cable LAN via the connection to the Local network for my xbox 360. However, when the connections passed the wireless connection would show that it is disconnected and would not reconnect. When I tried to repeat the process sometimes the same thing happens sometimes it says that it is still connected.

  However, be that as it may, both times I could not load any page of the website from my laptop and xbox connect any.
  How can I create a network bridge and get the wireless internet to connect please?

  Any help to fix this would be appreciated,

  This Microsoft Knowledge Base article might help: bridge may not work with a Non-Promiscuous Mode network card .

  If not, I recommend to delete the network bridge and enable sharing of Internet connection on the wireless network connection. Boulder computer Maven

• Lost connection to the local network

  I have a Latitude D420. The wireless connection works fine, but when I connect an ethernet cable to the port, nothing happens. If I restart my computer with the cable in place, clear amber at the rear lights and remains until the login page appears. Then, when I choose a user icon to open a session (any user), the light turns off and the light indicating the connection on my router. When I look at "All network connections", the connection to the LAN does not - only the wireless and 1394. In Device Manager, connect to the local network does not appear.

  It seems that the ethernet card may have been fried, as the light comes on for a while. Someone at - it ideas? Thank you very much.
