• Pavilion p6-2310: can no longer connect to our wireless network

  All of a sudden our PC no longer has a connection to our wireless network.  We looked at the list of installed programs and it shows Ralink RT539OR 802.11bgn Wi - Fi adapter has having been installed today - but we have no install anything today.  Is it a coincidence that shows like this and all of a sudden we can access our wireless network?  How do we get working again that it is necessary as soon as possible?  Thanks for any help.

  Thank you.  I'm like a dog with a bone when it comes to these things and not rest until I get solved.  So, I found something in the knowledge base of the forum who pointed me in the right direction.  Using Device Manager we uninstalled and reinstalled the card wifi, and bingo, it works again.  Ceases to amaze me, but how a computer works fine 1 minute and then the next time that you are never going to use it, boom, something does not work.  And you did nothing to change anything so that it does not work.

• Computer has limited or no connectivity and no IP address is assigned.

  My computer is connected to my router but it says that my computer has limited or no connectivity. He said: no ip address has been assigned. I've already changed my router. It is connected to the router by an Ethernet cable. I know the router works well because I called the company and also my ISP. They told me to get a new router, which I did, but it still does not work. I have 2 laptops connected to this router and an Xbox 360 connected to it. I called the ISP customer and also the router company. I changed the router and I also tried another Ethernet cable, and they do not work. I tried to unplug my router and return connection and it does not always work. Help, please!

  This forum is for posting comments on the web site of Microsoft Answers, is not for technical questions.  Your question belongs here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/networking

  The presence of the "169" address indicates that your printer is not able to get an IP address from your DHCP server.  Check the network settings in the printer.

  Hello @fairgame,

  Thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support! The forums are a great place where you can find solutions for your problems, with the help of the community!

  I understand that you have a problem with the WiFi and wanted to help you!

  First of all, try to review the next steps, offered by community member @Great-Christine-Tree:

  First of all, we have a step by step guide to guide you through the process of diagnosis here:

  HP PC - troubleshooting Internet and wireless network

  A second option is to try the following steps:
  Powercycle the network:
  1. turn off your laptop.
  2. unplug the power to your router.
  3. disconnect the power to your modem.
  4. wait at least 45 seconds.
  5 reconnect the modem and wait for it to come back online.
  6 plug in the router and wait for it to come back online.
  7. turn on your laptop and test your connection.

  Turn off the power to the adapter:
  1. open Device Manager. (Win Key + R > type devmgmt.msc > OK)
  2. expand the network adapters.
  3. right click on the Ethernet adapter / wireless, and then click Properties.
  4. click on the power management tab.
  5 remove the check mark next to allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
  6. click on OK.
  7 test cycle.

  Reset the TCP/IP settings on your PC:
  1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
  2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
  3. in the window that opens type "netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt" without the quotes and press ENTER.
  4 restart your PC and test.

  It can also help to reset the winsock catalog:
  1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
  2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
  3. in the window that opens type "netsh winsock reset" without the quotes, and then press ENTER.
  4 restart your PC and test.

  Reinstall the NIC drivers:
  1. download the drivers from here , but do not run them again.
  2. go to your Start menu/screen and type Device Manager.
  3. expand network adapters.
  4. right click on the wireless adapter and choose uninstall.
  5 install the drivers downloaded in step 1.
  6. restart your PC and test.

  Test an ethernet connection:
  Explicit. Test if the problem persists on a wired connection to the adapter hardware troubleshooting wireless can be directed to the appropriate areas.

  Test another connection:
  Many people excluded their home network as a problem if another device working on the same network. Networking is not as simple as that. Each device interacts differently with your router or modem and it is impossible to exclude the settings for this device until the laptop has been tested on another network.

  If these steps do not resolve the problem, try this document published by Microsoft for network management issues: wired and wireless network problems. You can change the operating system with the drop-down list in the upper right of the document.

• Unable to connect to the wireless network

  I have a Pavilion DV2000. I am running Vista 32 bit. Used to connect to my home wireless network, it stopped.  I have another computer that still works with the wireless network, so I guess that the wireless network is OK.

  When I look at the HP wireless assistant, it shows the conections of bluetooth, but does not show the wifi connection (as it does not exist).

  When I click on the network icon in the tool bar it ask to search for wireless networks, it says that there is not.

  When I look at the list of drivers for network devices there is no wifi driver.  I installed the driver broadcom on the site of HP rebooted and I still don't see the driver and the PC cannot yet see the wireless network.

  I looked at the list of hardware in Windows system information utility and it shows the Broadcom device, but it shows the address MAC is not available and there is no memory listed address.

  Does anyone have suggestions for a next step?  Is this a problem with the hardware with the broadcom device?  Is it possible to test?

  I found the solution to a different thread.  Reach:

• Photosmart C4599 connects to the wireless network

  System details: Windows 7 64 bit, HP Photosmart C4599 Limited Edition. Wireless network (Netgear router) with visible SSID and MAC filter.

  As the title suggests: my wireless printer is not connecting to my wireless network more. The reason that it is 'more' is because he used to work. But my wireless router has started to lose the internet connection - and I read somewhere that it might work to change the broadcast channel of the router (instead of channel 11 to 13). And it helped.
  But since then, the printer was not able to connect. I tried it back - and interruption of the internet connection but the printer worked (a little).

  I tell myself that I have to reset the wireless printers Setup, I don't know how to do.

  Ok.  I think that the issue would be with the channel.  It might be too high a frequency for the printer to communicate properly.  You can have a heavy traffic on any channel, it depends on what is around you.  I recommend trying channel 1 or 6.  You should be able to download a parser for your smart phone wifi see what are the channels have less useage.

• Connection to the wireless network printer

  My power went market last night and now my Deskjet 3050 a is no longer connected to my wireless network.  How to reconnect?  I don't have a usb cable to connect the computer to the printer.  It's the first time that this has happened - I've had this printer for over 2 years now.

  OK, I pulled down the manual and you do not have an installation wizard, sorry. You will need to use a USB cable from the printer and follow the instructions on page 32 of the User Guide to get back attached to your router.

• Comouter is no longer automatically connects to the wireless network.

  Until recent netbook Hannsbook my wife automatically connected to our wireless network when turned on.  We recently took a trip and used a different wireless network.  Back home, he is no longer automatically connect when turned on.  Software Troubleshooting in the Windows 7 Home Premium says he has been "manually disconnected' and it restores the connection.  I deleted all the other networks wireless to the computer.  Page manage wireless networks correctly identifies the network and says it should connect automatically.  BUT IT'S NOT!

  Once connected, the router works fine.  The connection is NOT lost when the computer goes into power saving mode. How do we get to resume its old custom to connect automatically when the computer is powered?  My wife is a technophobe and have to mess around to make the connection can be the drop of water!

• Connection to the wireless network trouble at the start of Windows 7

  I have configured my computer will automatically connect to my home network, but at the start, it aims rather to connect to 'SoftAP-C0', a network with zero signal strength that probably belongs to one of my neighbors. It is impossible to connect and displays "waiting for users ' instead of 'connected' or 'disconnected '. I then have to disconnect this network manually connect to my network home and enter the security key. Because my computer never gets to actually connect to the network SoftAP, I can't access the configuration window to disable the automatic connection (if it is still what makes my computer trying to connect to it in the first place.) Is there another way to access its configuration (otherwise than through the network and sharing Center)?

  Hello

  You can see a list of available wireless networks and then connect to one of those networks, no matter where you are. The wireless networks appear only if your computer has a wireless network adapter and driver installed and the adapter is turned on.

  If you want Windows to ask permission before attempting to connect to a wireless access point, you can Turn off wireless on the laptop.

  You can have a switch on the laptop turns off the same. Turning off Wireless is specific to the model of the laptop.

  You can follow the links below to set up your preferred networks.

• Unable to connect to other wireless networks

  RE: Unable to connect to other wireless networks

  • My computer is a HP Pavilion dv7 1232nr Entertainment Center
  • My OS is Windows Vista 64 bit
  • I have installed many things over the past year, but know that at some point, I was able to get on free Wi - Fi in hotels

  I am able to connect to my network, but when I try to connect to others, I'm unable to do. I have their password and my computer SHOWS I have a connection, but actually I'm not. When I try to connect to the Internet, the server is not found. I called the support/supplier for the last network owner and he told me that even if I "thought" I was online, I really wasn't. He said that it is probably a router configuration for that person that does not correspond to my computer. As I was just visiting, of course I didn't mess with their router. This happened to me twice, with once the provider is the same as mine, but the only way I could get connected with a hard link.

  So far, the only thing I did is to see if I could connect to free wireless (municipal library) and was unsuccessful. I think the problem is with my settings, but am not sure. I have to be careful to change anything because I can't afford to lose my connection at home because my job depends on it.

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks for any advice you might be able to share.

• HP 7520: HP 7520 will not connect to the wireless network

  There is some additional information to

  http://forums.Xfinity.com/T5/home-networking-router-WiFi/HP-7520-will-not-connect-to-wireless-networ...

  on this issue.

  Have several APs for a single wireless network allows the printer foolish law.  (Not a Repeater, a second AP connected to the local network with the same configuration of network for security, etc.).

  I solved this problem.  In accordance with the discussion on the link, the problem is that the printer cannot connect to a wireless network if there is greater than 1 for a wireless network (SSID) name wireless access point.

  This thread has had several useful suggestions, but what finally solved the problem, it's the second point has access to a mode where I can create a 'virtual' access point and, above all, a SSID associated.

  Note that not all access points or routers support virtual APs, but this function seems to be more common over time.  Older models is not able to do that.  However, a new access point is sometimes cheaper than a new printer.

  If you do not understand the jargon in the procedure below, I recommend that you find someone who does, then they can do it for you.

  Solution:

  1. On one of the wireless access on the network, create an a new virtual AP with a slightly different name SSID (for example < name of the network - > _1), on the same VLAN (usually VLAN 1).  You may need to put the AP in "multiple AP mode" or something similar, and then restart the AP.  All other settings (DHCP, security, mixed mode b/g/n, etc.) must be the same for the new SSID.
  2. Run the printer Wireless Setup and connect it to this new SSID
  3. Confirm that the printer can be seen by other devices on the network

  Tips:

  • Check the security is the same as the original SSID, Alternatively you can create a vector of insecurity in your network.  Do not WEP-128 when the other SSID uses WPA2 AES, for example.
  • The AP I had had several resets to make it work because of the mode and parameter changes.
  • If you connect the SSID but cannot connect to or be seen by anything on your network, check the new SSID/AP is in the same VLAN as the original.
  • Because the printer is not roaming, and the speed is not a problem for me, I used the access point that could support this solution, which is deeper and slower than my primary AP.  I have not noticed any problems.

  The printer has been reliable on the wireless now on the new SSID, 48 hours.

  I have not upgraded any software on a client of the printer (PC, Mac, phones).

  I think that it is a positive confirmation that the problem is with the implementation of the printer of the stack of network and not with the driver or client software on remote devices.  The 802.11 protocols provide for a network name (SSID) wireless with several access points using different MAC addresses.  I suggest this HP look into this as a potential bug with their network printer for the 7520 protocols stack.
