No Internet connection after system restore

I had problems to open Windows Live Messenger last night, and I tried to do a system restore, as I noticed there were a couple of updates that have been installed throughout the day where I suspected may have caused the problem.

I went back to a restore point from the earlier in the day when I heard that Messenger was working. Of course, Messenger open instead of crashing on startup.

Unfortunately, I am able to connect to the Internet. Network connections settings say it's "id" my wireless network, but nothing changes. Is no longer, I get an IP address. I have other computers on the network that connect without problem.

I tried to install a Wireless N USB adapter and the problem still remains. Finally, I gave and did a complete restore to factory settings. Good news is that I can now get a connection. Fortunately, I had my backup files.

Research online, it seems that many people seem to have had similar problems, but not after a system restore.

  • Satellite C660 - no Internet connection after updating BIOS

    I am a novice user and have a Satellite C660 under warranty that I don't use for surfing the net and Ebay so I hope I can explain my problem!

    Toshiba bulletin board said that the need to update BIOS, so I followed the instructions but since then I have no internet connection, and cannot restore the connection that I lost all help Toshiba Bulletin Board today lost and none of the programs to sort the problems work - e.g.set assistants etc. I did not yet create rescue disks, but if I try to create them now I'll be able to restore to factory settings?

    Can someone tell me if it's a failure caused by the BIOS update or I would return laptop to John Lewis for repair? Thank you very much for reading this

    Hey Buddy,

    The default settings in the BIOS load after update? If this is not the case, go into the BIOS and load the default settings. You can enter the BIOS if you press F2 before Windows start and then press the F9 key to load defaults. Then save & exit the BIOS Setup.

    You can access the Internet now?
    You try to access the Internet with LAN or WLAN connection?

    Also check device manager if all devices are recognized correctly.

    > I did not yet create rescue disks, but if I try to create them now I'll be able to restore to factory settings?
    You can create the Toshiba Recovery disk every time. Just launch the pre-installed Toshiba Recovery Media Creator and follow the instructions on the screen. You need just a few blank DVDs to create the discs. Disks contain a factory image of settings which can be restored each time and how many times you want to so with these disks, you are on the safe side ;)

    I lost the internet connection after acceptance of your latest updates. How can I cancel the updates?

    Debbie

    How do you know that the loss of your internet connection has nothing to do with the Windows updates? You must find the reason for the loss of the connection.

    How do you connect? Is a wired or wireless with a modem or a router? If a router is the router shared with another computer and this computer can connect to the internet? You need to determine if the problem is a fault on your computer or a failure to connect to your internet access provider?

    What error messages are reported?

    Event Viewer reports

    1. normally, when an error occurs on your computer looking in Event Viewer should be your starting point to find a solution. More related system errors are recorded and get an exact copy of the relevant report is important. Unfortunately, is not easy to understand reports and most of the users computer need help with their interpretation. I have to say later interpretation.

    2 Event Viewer includes three main newspapers of Windows. Here's the Application, security, and system. For purposes of troubleshooting system is by far the most important.

    3. to access the system log, select Start, Control Panel, administrative tools, Event Viewer, in the list on the left of the window select Windows and the system logs. Place the cursor on the system, right click and select filter current log. Check the front of the error and click OK and see you only reports errors. Click the Date and time column header to sort. You may need to click a second time to see the last report above.

    4. a tip for posting copies of error reports! Run Event Viewer and double-click the error you want to copy. Select the Details tab and check the box in front of the XML view. Click the copy button to place a copy in the Clipboard and close Event Viewer. Now start your message and paste it into the body of the message. Make sure that it is the first dough right out of the event viewer.

    5. He cautioned against three types of reports, information, and reports errors. In most situations, it is the error reports that offer the best information but sometimes WARNING reports provide useful clues.

    6. all reports have stamps date and hour and when troubleshooting, it is important to focus on the latest reports. Reports of studies from the point when the computer is started, and then check if a similar report appeared in the previous session. If errors do not repeat investigation as to why they happen is wasted effort.

    7. in the individual reports the most important information is the event ID and Source such as these help when looking for help on the internet. The description is just as important and copy the exact text to use as search criteria greatly helps achieve better results when using Google. Not paraphrase descriptions when other people asking for help.

  • Vista 32 bit loses the internet connection after about 10-15 minutes.

    I lose my internet connection after 10-15 minutes.

    The message says local access only.

    The only way to reconnect is to restart the computer.

    I use a devolo home plug network system. It is connected to a 210 of BT router travel.

    I also have a new computer recently bought and installed Windows 7. There is no problem with that.

    Maybe it's a coincidence, but the problem started only since the installation of the new model.

  • No internet connection AFTER startup, but only works during the boot.

    Hi all

    Have a Win XP MCE (Media Center Edition) Dell laptop running.  I can only connect to internet when the system is even start, and I click on the shortcut to IE or Firefox. Once the system completes the startup it connects me to the internet WITHOUT problem & with good signal and good connection speeds.  System connect wirelessly through a Linksys router.

    If I left the initialization of the system ended up - and I'm trying to connect to IE or Firefox - the hourglass appears for a minute and then disappears and I get no connection!

    This means that I must always start the internet connection while system is always initialize, and if I end the connection I get only back to restart system in place and opening connection when appear the icons on the desktop for IE or Firefox!

    I am puzzled by this and have no idea what to do to solve the problem!
    TNX a lot!

  • Impossible to uninstall Symantec Endpoint Protection after system restore

    Hello
    a program has been uninstalled (Symantec Endpoint Protection)
    After have rebooted and still have problems to install a newer version, I decided to do a system
    Restore prematurely, I uninstalled the original version.
    (Since I couldn't find the installation files or my license info)

    The old version worked again.  Now I am able to start the
    new version, the old version will not uninstall.

    It just sits there in a small box with a bar saying Windows of progression
    in the configuration of Symantec Endpoint Protection and it remains as it
    for as long as I left, at least 25 minutes.

    I thought that the system restore would put things back exactly as they
    have been, but it's apparently not the case.

    OT: Impossible to uninstall after system restore

    Any ideas on that?
    The OS is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit 64-bit.
    I found this, but have not yet tried.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall/en-us

    I was able to cirumvent the problem by a selective startup in Msconfig.

    I disabled all startup items, all services not MS, restarted and then uninstalled

    successfully.  However, I met another strange problem.

    After uninstalling old version, I rebooted (the system was still selective

    startp) I put a new restore point and installed the new version successfully.

    Later, realizing msconfig has been arrived at "selective", I went and

    has tried to return to Normal startup.  However, when you select normal

    and hit 'apply', it immediately jumps to selective.  I have never seen it before.

    I didn't know how to solve.

    Instead, I uninstalled the new version of the AV program, jumped to the restore point

    I did before I installed, rebooted, open Msconfig and have been correctly set up

    In normal mode.  Then reinstalled the AV.

    Everything is OK now.

    You ever heard of this problem of msconfig before?

  • No internet connection after wipe system

    OK, so recently, I wiped my Alienware X 51 R2 to its default state of factory, but once the system itself wiped completely to its default state of the internet connection did not work. Apparently, the internet connection problem was caused by a problem with the wireless adapter, I don't know what the problem is with the wireless adapter.

    I tried to solve the problem, but that did not help and I used the alienautopsy program to analyze the hardware systems but everything was fine. I also checked in the Device Manager and everything rolled up very well here also, so apparently by what I can tell there is nothing physically wrong with my wireless adapter.

    So, if somebody knows what's going on with my computer and how to fix it, help would be very appreciated!

    (I have a Windows 8.1 btw)

    If you expect to see 9 connections when you click left the Internet next to the battery icon on the bottom of the bar of the screen, then that would be wireless.    IF the computer is off line without seeing any other connections, you must be connected with an Ethernet cable. Looks like a problem with wireless.  If it was a problem with the Ethernet cable, the first thing is to ask if you have a cable connection with special protocols, as a name and password, or.  phone call to your ISP can clarify if this was a problem.

    1 check out the switch airport connection.    If the wireless connection is set to.    Windows 8 may sometimes have a problem with these devices to vote does not correctly.

    2. try to return these two going back and forth, giving a minute or two for the OS to see the change and see if wireless starts to see possible links.  Even restart between the evolution of the position of the switches.  (? which resembles a waste of manoeuvre of the silent time.)   It is therefore preferable to three before performing reboots.

    3. right click on the connection icon, choose ' Open network and sharing Center", where you can find things in turn also power off and reset the wireless connections.

    4. you can go to the Dell website, with your Express Service Code and find specific downloads for the hardware in your computer, where you can find Wireless, which Alienware technology recommended that you try to reinstall, as well as the other driver for the Ethernet driver.  Once you have a downloaded copy that you know how to find him, then we can reinstall that over and over.   As well as the network driver.   Spades, just download them all.

    5. I know that for me, because I always support, (and I live in the United States) so I can call the Alienware Technical Support, who really know what they're doing and can probably talk you through all of this, or if you have a wired Ethernet goes, they can remotely you and fix it without having to worry about this.   Alienware Tech have been great to fix things that I messed up.   I hear rumours that they are not so big in other countries.

  • Difficulty of internet connection after Security Tool Virus

    My mothers computer caught the security tool virus.  I finally had to reload Windows XP and Windows XP now works, but I can't connect wirelessly to the internet.  She got ahead through Linksys.  When I look under the modem it says connection cable to cable.  I'm assuming I erased the other information that I need to connect on the internet.  Any help will be appreciated.

    Here are some ideas of the fallout that occurs in your Internet settings after some infections have been deleted and how set things straight.

    Depending on how you removed the infection (the removal procedure is well documented), sometimes there are a few other things to do later.

    Some malware knows that you will try to get in the Internet to try to find a hair removal method if it adjusts things on your system to prevent you to do so.  Even if you delete the malware using several analytical tools, tools cannot tell if the Internet settings have been modified by malicious software or put you that on purpose so he leaves the only parameters (and your system cannot connect).

    The malware hope that you will not be able to understand these things and give up and just reinstall your XP, do an install repair or by using a Restore Point.  Sometimes it breaks these things too, but you can usually remedy without the use of one of these methds (which aren't really patches at all)...

    If you have reinstalled XP, this may not apply to your situation, but it would be a good start:

    We will check your network connection properties.

    Some malware will alter these settings and your anti malware software can't tell if you have changed the malware changed them or so, after removal of infections, it will leave just the settings as he finds them (it is usually a good thing), but can leave your disabled Internet access.
     
    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Inetcpl.cpl

    Click OK to launch the Internet Properties Control Panel, choose connections, LAN settings.

    Or, in Internet Explorer click on tools, Options, connections, LAN settings.

    These settings control your Internet access for all browsers.

    On most environments, not independent, there will be check automatically detect settings and the other boxes are (as Proxy Server) is disabled.

    Automatically detect the setting checked =
    Use the automatic configuration script = unchecked
    Use a proxy server for your LAN = not checked

    Make changes, then click OK, OK to save the settings.

    Check your settings for how your network adapter gets its IP and DNS settings.  On most home systems, these parameters must be defined for the system will get the settings automatically.

    If you have another system on your network that works, you can compare these settings with the settings of the system which is not a work and make adjustments.

    Click Start, settings, Control Panel, network connections, and then select your current network connection.

    On the general tab, click Properties.

    In the drop down in the Middle, find and highlight the selection of Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties.

    In the Internet Protocol Properties window, the usual selections are to get the IP and DNS settings automatically.  Select the following two options:

    Obtain an IP address automatically

    Get a DNS server address automatically

    The rest of the options on the screen should then be grayed out/not available.

    Make changes, then click OK, OK to save the settings.

    Restart your computer and test your connection.

    If it still does not work, check your settings are still in place after a restart and then release and renewal IP of your network device configuration settings.

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    cmd

    Click OK to open a command prompt window, and then type the following commands:

    Restart your computer and test your connection.

    If this does not work, follow these steps:

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..

  • interruption of the internet connection after installing vista sp2, only a local network

    Hello
    Since I installed vista sp2 last week, I have no internet connection. Just, my laptop connects to the local network. I had already tried to uninstall sp2, but this does not resolve the issue. A restore of the system has not been successful (do not know why, windows just said failure of system restore). I also deleted my antivirus program and my firewall...
    The internet works occasionally for a short time and when I start in safe mode.
    Because I live in a House that I have to use a fix ip, gateway and dns. After you install sp2, windows says my default gateway does not match my ip address and subnet mask when I change the properties of TCP/IPv4. Using another laptop with XP, the internet connection works with the same settings.
    I would be grateful for a quick solution, without formatting ;)

    I've highlighted the TCP/IPv6 line of course ;) the button was inactive when even
    in the registry, I saw WHAT TCP/IPv6 is already disabled

    my internet actually works, but I don't know why
    I deleted the file DisabledComponets for TCP/IPv6 in the registry, rebooted, create one, rebooted and it worked
    but I do not know why :)
    I hope that my internet is still functional
