My Windows XP laptop does not connect to my 2WIRE router wireless, but do my other laptops. It will only connect with the ethernet cable. What is the problem?

What I'm doing.

1. my laptop is a Toshiba XP

What serial number and model of Toshiba?

What type of encryption 2wire router uses for now? Type of WEP or WPA? If the latter do you know if your XP laptop wireless card supports WPA (some older cards only). If you find that this is the problem, you can go to the WEP encryption or buy a WPA compatible device to use instead of the current device on the XP laptop.

If you don't know how to find this information...

The range and the model are probably on a sticker on the bottom of the laptop.

I think that there is a sticker on the side of 2wire routers (leastways are those provided by BT) gives you the encryption key and this might also state what is the type of encryption. Or, if not, open a web browser such as internet explore/firefox etc and go to http://gateway.2wire.net, somewhere on the router admin pages, you will find information on wireless security/encryption.

Regarding the card laptop wireless, I can help with this if you give me the range and the model as requested above. I can, also, be able to determine from the description of the device in Device Manager. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc and press ENTER. Network adapters (click on +) and transcribe the wireless adapter that there are listed in a response to this post.

  • Thunderbird does not connect with the server

    Another recent problem is Thunderbird does not connect with the server. I don't know if sent mail will go out, but I know I'm nothing receive.

  • Does not connect with the e-mail server after update.

    Thunderbird ran an auto update yesterday. Then it just stopped working. It does not connect with the Comcast email server. An error message appears "Unable to connect" and "the connection was refused when attempting to contact live.mozilla.messaging.com. I don't want to uninstall and reinstall for fear of losing my emails and address book. How can we get Thunderbird set, there is no tool in the toolbar to enable the debugging and correction of program errors.

    I use Thunderbird version 38.1.0.

    Thank you.

    The problem solved itself, Thunderbird has just started working. I followed the thread suggested by Christ1 and found none of it applied. No malware, no browser, no certificate error security block. I did, however, in Thunderbird, under Tools/Options/General uncheck the button for "When Thunderbird launches, show the Start Page in the message box." I do know that if this helped, Thunderbird still do not access Comcast mail for hours after that, even with several stops and restarts.

    Until the next problem...

    Dynamic link does not connect with the aftermath?

    Hi Robert,.

    Dynamic link works between versions of similar applications. Make sure you have the same version of both applications.

    For example, Premiere Pro CC 2015 won't work in dynamic link with after effects CC 2015

    First Pro CC 2014.2 will work in dynamic link with after effects CC 2014.2 and so on...

  • I just installed a new router and now my desktop running Windows XP computer does not connect to the internet.

    Hello

    I just installed a new router and now my desktop running xp computer does not connect to the internet. I know that it is not the router because I plugged the cable into my laptop running 7 and it works fine. When I try to dhcp I get 169..., when I put manually the IP just get no access to the internet and can not ping to the router address. I tried to run the net work Assistant, emptied my dns, disabled all firewals, still nothing.
    Any suggestions?
    original title: connectivity Limeted

    The zero configuration utility works very well. But it is a desktop computer and on cable. All other wired and wireless PC in the office is working well, then it's definitely this PC. He came out of nowhere, I install a network printer on the PC but that's all.

    Your messages are a bit terse, but if I understand correctly

    • You have a router connected to the Internet and multiple computers connected to the router, some Ethernet cable and others by wireless.
    • All but one of these computers can reach successfully from the Internet via the router.
    • A computer that can't browse the Internet is connected to the router via an Ethernet cable.
    • You disconnected the cable between the router and the desktop problem and connected it to a Windows 7 laptop and the laptop connected to the Internet via the router.
    • You haven't seen any error message (except, perhaps, a message on "Limited or no connectivity").
    • You have installed Windows XP Service Pack 3 (or at least Service Pack 2)

    Assuming that all the foregoing is an accurate summary of the situation, I suggest that you do the following:

    Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
    Type the following lines and press ENTER after each line

    Netsh reset winsock catalog
    netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt

    Close the command prompt window and restart the computer.

  • BlackBerry Torch 9860 smartphones does not connect with the pc via the USB port.

    We have a new Torch 9860 which does not connect with a PC via the USB port.  What should do?

    The answer is YES

    Well, then your USB port is likely.

    Restart the PC and BlackBerry (with smart BlackBerry power onthe phone, remove the battery for a minute and then reinsert the battery to restart).

    Then, connect with the USB cable and a rear main USB port at the back of the PC, not a front USB port.

    Hear a ringing or sound from the PC indicating that the BlackBerry is connected?

    Start the BlackBerry Desktop Manager software. Give it a minute to recognize the connected BlackBerry device... you see the code PIN of BlackBerry on the PC in the BlackBerry Desktop software?

  • Satellite C660 WIFI does not connect with the channel 1 of the router

    Hello

    I have this problem for several months. I connect my laptop with the D - link DIR-615 as a WAP browser.

    I can't remember, but the fact is that I can't connect more with channel 1 of my WAP.
    Connection with the other channels is no problem.

    Other laptops or the available have no problem connecting to channel 1.
    He's tried a recovery, remove and reinstall the driver for my WIFI.

    All know what to watch?

    Kind regards

    Jacky Deschepper

    Where have you changed channels settings: within the router or the wireless network adapter?
    Is that it s any laptop you are using. It s always a matter of the WLan card that is integrated.

    Usually, you can change the Wlan card settings in the properties.
    Go to Device Manager-> Wlan card-> right click Properties-> Advanced tab
    Here, you would be able to change the available settings.

  • G70 213EM Windows 7 Fax does not connect to the modem

    "Hi, my G70 213EM let me use Windows 7 Fax, when I try to send a fax, it tries to detect the modem (HDAUDIO Soft Data Fax Modem with SmartCP) and reportsan error occurred - try the operation later or contact your system administrator '. He has worked with the release candidate, but not now with Windows 7 Home Premium full version.

    I questioned the modem via Device Manager and obviously only the fault I can see is a line in the newspaper that says ' DSR is low during the initialization of the modem. Verify the modem is turned on ' , but it responds after that? very strange.
