• Ad Hoc network. even if the network is active and is connected to the internet my devices cannot connect and then the network shuts down.

  I'm living in a college dorm and only have access to the internet via a hard line to my computer. So I wanted to give my other accessibility of consumer electronics set up an Ad-Hoc network and share the internet connection. When I originally set up the network it works fine, but after the devices go to sleep or I leave the room it stops working. I had problems to keep the internet connection to share continually, which I fixed it. I then had a DHCP problem with the hard line that has been resolved through troubleshooting function. Now, even if the network is active and is connected to the internet my devices cannot connect and then the network shuts down.

  Is there a way to create an Ad Hoc network that works similar to a wireless router, so when my computer is turned, it works automatically? If so, how can I make this happen without these problems?

  Hello

  I suggest to activate temporarily the antivirus as well as windows firewall and check if it helps.

  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.

  Disable the anti-virus software

• Wireless network adapter cannot connect to the wireless network

  When I start my PC HP TouchSmart it does not recognize my wireless network.  It says wireless network adapter cannot connect to the wireless network and the details said network adapter "Local network connection * 16 ' does not work properly. The strange thing is that if I leave my computer for a few minutes, then restart it twice, it recognizes the network and starts working. Frustrating is that I have to do this everytime I turn on my computer.  It takes at least 10 minutes of starting and restarting my computer before it will recognize my wireless network.   Any help?

Also, I can't access this PC from a PC in 10 Windows on the same network - this error message indicates that Windows cannot communicate with the device or resource. It is available, but it is unresponsive to attempts to connect.

  Hello

  The first thing I would do is follow step 6 in this document to set a static IP address: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02817031
  When it askes for the DNS information, enter in Google DNS. Preferred DNS = DNS Alt = 8.8.4.4 8.8.8.8

  This could increase the stability of the network connection to the printer downstairs.  If this does not help, let me know what OS is on the computer causing problem, because that could cause a problem?  Other than that, you can check the quality of the signal you get form the network and see if this can be a problem.

• printer cannot be contacted over the network

  I have a HP deskjet 656 printer that I added as a network printer. I installed it on my computer laptop windows 7, which went well. However it does not print. The touble shooter printer tells me to 'the printer cannot be contacted over the network. It works from another laptop I have but not my laptop Windows 7.

  I had a similar problem with my new Windows 7 laptop. After a power failure, the laptop would not recognize my HP printer and the error was that "the printer cannot be contacted over the network" so I spent a lot of time to solve the problem. Finally helped the simplest thing was that I removed this printer in my list of printers and added again using the "Add a printer" Wizard and it worked perfectly!

  I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit and I try to install a printer multifunction Ricoh Aficio 1045 on a network.

When I run the troubleshooting printer I get the following error 'printer RICOH Aficio 1045 Pcl 6 cannot be contacted over the network. He said to contact my system administrator.

• XP SP3 cannot connect to WPA2 wireless network, but can Debian on the same PC.

  I have a Toshiba Portege M200 dual-boot Windows XP Tablet PC Edition with Service Pack 3 installed and Debian GNU/Linux codename Wheezy with Debian non-free package firmware-ipw2x00 allowing my wireless adapter to use and wicd package to manage wireless connections.

  Two operating systems are able to connect to a WPA - PSK network automatically without any problem whatsoever.

  Debian is able to automatically connect to a WPA2-PSK network without any problem, but simply Windows doesn't connect at all.

  Windows shows the WPA2 network in the list of available networks and correctly recognizes as having the WPA2 security.  However, when trying to manually connect, Windows ask me the network key (I have enter), then spend about two minutes «Waiting for network...» "with the usual animation and indefinite progress bar.  Windows back me to the list of available networks window, then shows me not connected to everything as if I didn't choose any.  When waiting for Windows to connect automatically, Windows will sometimes appear a bubble icon connection wireless network saying that it could not connect to one of my favorite networks but that he will continue to try.

  I get no error message or any other message of any kind.  Windows just trying with fanfare and fails silently.

  The two operating systems have updates of installed operating system vendor.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  To give a vision a little to the solution "install a new driver" discussed in the Technet forum thread, it seems that the problem here is the same as that commonly encountered when trying to update printer drivers: a user downloads the new driver and installs it but the problem remains.

  What happens is that if the older driver is not removed all first, it is not replaced by the new driver.

  Windows installs hardware devices using INFs.  They are located in % windir%\inf.  Actually, the previous statement is incomplete.  The first time that a device is installed, Windows uses the INF file to create a corresponding PNF file located in the same directory.  The PNF file is a "precompiled" version of the INF file and Windows Setup actually uses the PNF file because it is "more effective" to do.

  If you download a new driver and replace only the INF file and do not delete the old driver files, when you 'day' the driver, Windows Setup examines the old file PNF which points to the old files and uses.

  Then... either completely uninstall the device or at least delete the PNF file appropriate before attempting to install an updated driver.

  And download the new driver from Toshiba or the manufacturer of the adapter wireless in the computer.  Don't understand from Windows Update.
