Need help to understand why my WiFi connection times out after an hour?

Windows XP Pro SP3. Dell Latitude D600; NetGear WNA1100 USB adapter

I connect WiFi to one of the two cafes the. In two places, I get about an hour of connection, and then he falls. I use IE7 both FFox.

In a store, I lost the connection with the error message: "this problem occurred because the network has not assigned a network address of the computer." To another, I actually get a blue screen with the error caused by the .sys associated with my NetGear app (I forget the real name until I see the BSOD - athuw.sys or something like that?).

To reconnect, I gotta make a stop full and energized. REPAIR don't reconnect - "could not renew IP address". Even REBOOTING won't let me no reconnect - there must be a full stop and repower.

Windows Firewall is disabled; I use ZoneAlarm free instead. Could there be a conflict? I know that ZA never remember the profiles that I put in place, although the NetGear app not.

According to a post in the forum of NetGear, the automatic configuration service is disabled. (http://forum1.netgear.com/showthread.php?t=1133) (Yes, I have posted this question directly on the NetGear forum - no one has picked up on it.)

If anyone has any ideas I can try (possibly some detailed instructions as I am not very savvy system), I'd be very grateful!

Welcome & thank you for your comments.

  • WiFi connectivity is lost after 12 hours on 32RL938

    Hi all
    I have a very strange and annoying questions on my 32RL938 aruond wifi connection.

    I set up the TV and connect to my wifi at home and everything is very well four approximately 12 to 15 hours.

    After leaving the TV in standby for a while (let s for example during the night) when I start it up again, I realize that, although my TV says it s connected to my local WIFI s there is no access to the drive Toshiba Places or DLNA network.

    The network connection test fails also.

    If I check on the router to the TV has a valid IP address and look connected, but no matter what ping test it s ip fails.

    The only solution I was able to identify this problem is to restart the router.

    After the reboot, the TV connects fine to my network and I can access the Internet on this subject.

    What is very strange, it's my house, I have 6 other wi - fi devices (laptop, phone android, printer, Tablet, etc.) that work perfectly well as my TV shows that there is no link.

    Because the ruter is not in my room it is quite difficult to restart every day.

    Please let me know if you experience this kind of behavior and what could I do about it. I also tried with static and dynamic ip for television, but the behavior is the same.

    > The only solution that I managed to identify this problem is to restart the router
    > After reboot, the TV connects fine to my network and I can access the Internet on this subject.

    For me, it looks like a problem of router and not as a problem of TV connection.

    But you can also check if the latest firmware is installed on your TV

  • a wifi connection time-out

    I have a Compaq 8510w running Windows XP. He has trouble establishing a connection wifi to my router. I get a message that it has limited connectivity because the network has not assigned an address. I have run the routine repair several times without success. However, if I simply leave it for 10 minutes, XP manages finally to make the connection.

    I already had another Compaq 8510w presenting the same symptoms. I have a dozen of the devices that use the router: none of them have no problem with the wifi connection.

    Any ideas how to avoid the delay in establishing the connections please? TIA... Greg

    You could try to update your wireless drivers and pass Windows Zero Configuration (WZC) to IntelProset configuration.  The Proset software can take advantage of the features built into your wireless chipset and it works better.  HP has a very good website of the Compaq and HP computer drivers update.  Just go to
    http://www.HP.com
    and follow the links to drivers and support.  Enter your computer and operating system model number and it will take you to a list of the most recent drivers for your computer.  In the section 'Drivers-Network', the latest driver for the Intel Pro Wireless is dated April 10, 2009.  After downloading/installing this driver, see the "Software - Solutions" section at the bottom of the page and download "Intel Proset Software. as of December 3, 2010.  That spend you WZC configuration of Intel and give you a chance to better performance.

  • Need help to understand why "1 is always equal to 1" is required in my tip Action

    I use 7 Captivate and publishing as a SWF file.

    I have an interaction that works, but there's a script I use (that I found in a tutorial) that I do not understand the purpose of.

    The interaction is contained on a single slide where a user clicks on two buttons in order any and a chart is displayed after the second click. Each button, I advanced conditional Action where I first check that it will always be true that "1 equals 1", then assign each variable with '1', then ensure that each variable is equal to 1, after which the graphic appears.

    The part that confuses me checks if "1 is always equal to 1." Why is this necessary script in this case? Is it necessary because I'm including a tip Action Standard (assign variables to '1') within the conditional Action Advanced? Or is related to the fact that I do everything on a slide (do not use a slide event on enter a conditional Action executing advanced)?

    Thank you.

    As usual, Rick explanation is awesome! It won't be fun to add more details.

    It would have helped if you don't say what tutorial you are talking about. This could be one on my blog, where I often use a "standard action imitated" it is a decision in a conditional action. The condition, I mainly used was 'IF 1 is equal to 1'. Article 1 (over 4 years): combination Standard and conditional in a tip action was even in Captivate 5 help documentation.

    Probably, I'll write a new blog post, because of the new shared actions. It is now better is to not use this simple condition more 'If 1 is equal to 1' If you use shared in Captivate 8 actions. It would take too long to explain in depth in this forum, so my idea on a new article. This condition could function without problems "Een if equals Een. Do not laugh at the word 'Een' which is the Dutch version of the written number 1. Be careful, because Captivate is case-sensitive, that 'If Een equals een' will not work.

  • Need help with understanding PowerCli scripting by LucD

    Hello

    I'll give you the standard statement that I am a noob powercli and don't really know what I'm doing here.  Here's a script that works because it runs without error and gives a report but I need help to understand this under his weight.

    Connect-VIServer '< our vcenter >' - user < user > admin-password < admin-user-pwd >

    $allvms = @)

    $vms = get - Vm | where {$_.} PowerState - eq "Receptor"}

    $start = (get-Date). AddDays(-1)

    $metrics = "mem.usage.average".

    $stats = get-Stat-entity $vms - start $start - Stat $metrics

    $stats | Group-object - property {$_.} Timestamp.Day}, {$_.} @entity.name} | %{

    $vmstat = "" | Select the day, MemAlloc, MemMin, MemMax, MemAvg, VmName

    $vmstat. VmName = $_. Values [1]

    $vmstat. Day = $_. Group [0]. Timestamp.Date

    $mem = $_. Group | where {$_.} MetricId - eq "mem.usage.average"} | Measure-object-property value - average - Maximum - Minimum

    $vmstat. MemMax = [int] $mem. Maximum ##dfsdf

    $vmstat. MemAvg = [int] $mem. Average

    $vmstat. MemMin = [int] $mem. Minimum

    $vmstat. MemAlloc = $_. Group [0]. Entity.MemoryMB

    $allvms += $vmstat

    }

    $allvms |

    Export-Csv "c:\ < folder > \ <>.csv file Destination"-noTypeInformation

    It connects to our server vcenter server and offers two days of data.  Today and yesterday, all with a timestamp of 0:00.  See below for an example of a virtual machine.

    VmNameDayMemAllocMemMaxMemAvgMemMin
    < name VM1 >07/05/2016 0:004096181818
    < name VM1 >06/05/2016 0:0040963612

    8

    The MemMax, the MemAvg and the MemMin are for this day?  Just the max of this period of sampling time 0:00?

    What I'm looking for, it is to find that the use of the maximum memory of virtual machines are for the whole day.  So I hope that I can remove memory of VMs that do not use it.  I was listed on the change $start = (Get-Date). The value of AddDays(-1) to $start = (Get-Date). AddDays(-30) and see what things alike.  I want to be sure however that the value for MemMax is the highest value for a period of 24 hours.  That is to say for the 07/05/2016 the given virtual machine never used a maximum of 18% of his memory attributed the 06/05/2016 the maximum amount of memory used was 36%, and so on that I extend on the date range.

    Kind regards

    Michael

    It then becomes a rather simple Get-Stat script.

    $vms = get - Vm | where {$_.} PowerState - eq "Receptor"}

    $start = (get-Date). AddDays(-1)

    $metrics = "mem.usage.average".

    Get-Stat - entity $vms - start $start - Stat $metrics |

    Select Timestamp,@{N='VM'; E={$_. @entity.name}}, Value |

  • Server responds only in time, FTP is not supported on this server [connection timed out after 15001 millseconds]

    Hello

    I repeatedly get the message "the server responding is not in time, FTP is not supported on this server [Connection timed] out after 15001 millseconds" when you try to download via the built in Adobe Muse FTP uploader. I've been in contact with my host who is hostbaby, and they said my ip address was blocked but when they unlock it is the same thing. I tried to change the automatic method and also to change the passive mode, but not joy.

    Any thoughts on how I can fix this?

    Have you checked with any FTP client to access your server host separately just to confirm if they are blocking access?

    You can try any as Filezilla FTP client to confirm access to the server with the same identifiers.

    Thank you

  • Need help to understand political static with Nat No.

    Hi all

    I have a Pix 515e with 6 interfaces. 5 interfaces are considered as internal that we don't want any translation NAT occur between them. We want only NAT between the 5 and the external interface.

    I created a No_Nat ACL successfully to not manage any portion of nat.

    What I have trouble understanding is the static command to allow traffic between higher levels to lower levels and vice versa.

    I understand the

    public static inside_address outside_address (indoor, outdoor)

    for the part of NAT translation.

    What I do not understand, this is when the inside address and address outside are the same, what order are going. For example, my inner interface (192.168.1.0/24) (sec100) is where the live servers, and I have another interface named accounting (192.168.2.0/24) (sec75).

    If I don't want no nat occurs between these two, I have the following

    No_Nat of the 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.2.0/24 ip access list permit

    No_Nat of the 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.2.0/24 ip access list permit

    NAT (inside) 0-list of access No_Nat

    NAT (accounting) 0-list of access No_Nat

    Now how can I enter the static command?

    Maybe

    static (inside, accounting) 192.168.1.0 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

    or

    static (inside, accounting) 192.168.2.0 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

    or

    static (accounting, inside) 192.168.1.0 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

    or

    static (accounting, inside) 192.168.2.0 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

    I do not understand the prescription for it and why it would be used one verses the other way. Is the security level determines the order? Do I need two static command, one for each direction?

    Thank you

    Denny

    Hello denny

    static can be defined in any way... its only traffic that determines what it... for example, if accounting dmz is access to any server on your inside interface, you normally want the accounting servers see the original on its public IP server inside... so, you will end up as static

    static (inside, accounting) 192.168.1.0 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

    only the above static command is sufficient to establish connectivity between inside and dmz accounting. u don't need 2 static on any sense...

    Similarly, if you want to inside users to access a server on the dmz accounting, you can write a static type

    static (accounting, inside) 192.168.2.0 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

    hope you understand. Let us know if you need help... but normally a statement nat 0 is more than enough for the inside / dmz communication

    Kind regards

  • Need help creating automatic setup of WiFi for XP Win 7, etc... Get errors on XP

    I have 100s of Win 7 and Win XP computers and I need a way to automatically configure WiFi. Some will be made for students and others for personnel etc. I did hours of research on this mega and using a Win 7 PC to create export to a USB key that is susposed to work on all versions of XP upwards. But, of course, it isn't. This works for Windows 7 and Vista, but not for XP.

    Here's what I did...

    1 a tried using the XP "Wireless Network Setup Wizard" to my XP PC. But it is defective and not allow you to create an installation WITHOUT any encryption, of course it is not acceptable as our WiFi does not use it. We use a system of Access Point Aruba which forces authentication VIA AD/connection on the first attempt to navigate the web. No encryption AT ALL as much as the WiFi client installation is concerned. I also did a profile exactly as I want only it except that I put in bogus WEP settings so it creates the SMRTNTKY with the WSETTING file. WFC file in it and then edited the. WFC to remove file but then it wouldn't work which is NOT ACCEPTABLE.

    2 went to a Win 7 PC as it does from there is supposed to work on Vista and XP too and had no problem using the option 'Copy this network on a USB flash drive profile' and it works perfectly for Win 7 and Vista, but - error on XP with the following message...

    The wizard found no information needed to set up a network, or the information was not usable. Try to rerun the wizard to your original computer.

    After reviewing the files generated between the XP method to export a WiFi profile to a USB key and how to Win 7 well, I found the following differences, all related to security settings. Of course, it's a bug or a design defect and a BIG problem for the IT Pro.

    Here's what my two WSETTING. Resemble WFC files.

    For XP I have:



       
            011C0F3E-EB0F-46B8-BA95-267ADEA25EC3
            0B4E59B8-8317-46B2-B8C2-C46850162E6C

            0
            0
       

    For Win 7 I have:



       
            01BC3658-4F27-42D1-92F7-3F7CF581A75E
            0B4E59B8-8317-46B2-B8C2-C46850162E6C

            0
            0
       

    There seems to be ONLY two lines which differ between the two files and are as follows...

    For XP:

    WEP
            12345

    For Win 7:

    None
           

    As you can see that the difference is in the security settings that I don't use. (This is a choice made by the powers above me and I have to work with that. MS should keep in mind at ANY moment the IT pro should have the last say on optional parameters is NOT MS)

    It seems that Microsoft, when they created this tool never intended be used by computer professionals as they force the settings for the IT Pro to decide at ANY TIME, not Ms.  IE to use WEP/WPA etc, or NONE.

    So am I missing something? How do I create an automated way I can run thousands of times without error on XP, Vista or Win 7 to configure profiles WiFi which will have NO apparent safety, but who actually do?

    I would VIA reg setting if I knew where to find all the reg settings to do, but the hours of Googleing gave this info. Everything seems to point to the network VIA USB method profile, which would be perfect if it worked on XP. If there was a simple file I could copy from a master system of its many clones then it works. I could wrap it in one. BAT file or use INNO Script to create a file of configuration etc. Many ways I could do if I could find any files, settings, etc., I would need control.

    It shouldn't be rocket science. I've seen where Microsoft has said they recognize the need for professionals like me to be able to automate this process for any tech user, but then the tools thay do aren't for the professionals that they take away the option of PROFESSIONAL (on-site tech who knows the most, is NOT MS) to decide, using their knowledge intament businesses must make choices about the use or non-use of WEP etc (it's a theme common in MS assistants, just look at the hack job SYSPrep is based by default on the local Administrator profile profile, a MAJOR mistake and a security risk, rendering it useless in a corporate environment where the local Admin profile is preconfigured with options parameters, links, etc. to the things a pro IT does not that the general user to see or to do but they need on the local admin ONLY)

    Thanks for any help you can give.

  • Need help to understand the network of vSphere environment

    Hello

    I need your help in understanding the network environment in vSphere. Please see the diagram and the text below:

    vm.png

    NIC #1 - Management Port (access from client vsphere, vCenter server)

    NIC #2 - Port of VMkernal (for iSCSI, vMotion, etc.)

    NIC #3 -?

    #4 – CARTE NETWORK INTERFACE?

    Q1 how allow external users to access services over the ESX host? (for example, IIS, FTP, Exchange, NFS)

    Q2, what will be the role of the other two network cards? Is it connected to the physical switch?

    * Ask you all to please help me by sharing your knowledge / experience on the network portion, you have made in your environment as NIC how, what to do with that. *

    I really need to understand the networking of concepts in vSphere, hope that your help!


    Best regards: Yash

    With an additional NIC with 2 port a general configuration might look like this:

    vSwitch0 - vmnic0, vmnic1 (connected to different physical switches)

    Network VMkernel management

    VMotion VMkernel network (own IP network, own VLAN)

    Better if they is configured as active / standby.

    vSwitch1 - vmnic2, vmnic3 (connected to different physical switches)

    Trade VM

    vSwitch2 - vmnic4, vmnic5 (connected to different physical switches)

    VMkernel iSCSI (own IP network, own VLAN)

    Ideal if it is added to the component Multipath iSCSI, which is quite easy to vSphere 5.
