No wireless Internet connection running Windows ME

I have an old L866r of Dimension running Windows ME that I recently installed a Linksys Wireless - B PCI adapt to.  Certainly there is a wireless connection and I am able to 'ping' of the router, but I can't connect to the Internet.  Linksys said that there is a problem of TCP/IP with the Dimension.  I can do or should I switch to XP?  It can even support under XP with a Pentium III 866 MHz processor and 258 MB of ram to my system?  Any help would be appreciated.

  • Went from "Windows Media" to "Windows XP SP3". Now, I get "Error Message 871122" trying to get a wireless Internet connection.

    Here are the facts:

    1. to have access to the internet with a direct line to router Ethernet ONLY, but no wireless connection.
    2. verified Harware for "Intel (r) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Net" - WORKS FINE.

    Hi MarvinCohen,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forums.

    I see from the description of the problem, you want to establish a connection to homegroup between Windows 7 devices and iphone or Android.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. We are here to help and guide you in the right direction.

    A homegroup is a group of computers on a home network that can share devices such as Printers and libraries (Documents, photos, music and video libraries). PCs must be running Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows RT or to participate in a homegroup.

    Using a homegroup allows for easier sharing, but if you want to connect the phone then unfortunately, I must inform you that you can not connect mobile phone or android device to a homegroup connection.

  • Internet connection down, windows 8, reset wireless network adapter

    I am running windows 8 on a computer laptop dv6 HP Envy and my internet connection keeps falling every few minutes.  This is due to the wireless network card and I have to reset the connection manually each time.  Even plugged into my modem, the connection drops.  I had my ISP reset the modem, tested and it works fine.  My connection is still down because of my network card.  Help, please.

    If you run the dism.exe / online/cleanup-image /restorehealth it may very well be able to fix the corrupted files. If necessary reruns sfc / scannow.  Hope this helps and if you need another post to help and we will be happy to help you.

  • Loss of Internet connection and Windows 7

    In our headquarters, we have a desktop system running Windows 7, but also an iMac.  The two are connected to Apple's Time Capsule, which serves as a router and a backup for the iMac hard drive. (our Internet connection is cable Internet, by the way.)

    Since upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7, the Windows 7 Desktop faces of frequent Internet connection errors.  Generally, it loses the connection to the Internet several times per day.

    Today, it's the worst event we've seen so far (since the upgrade to Windows 7 last week).  We usually only an Internet connection for about 2-3 minutes, then it is lost and needs to be repaired.

    We enter the control panel > network and sharing Center > issues > Internet connections

    Let us Windows 7 automatically diagnose and repair the problem.

    Whenever he goes through the stages of diagnosis and repair, it ends by "reset the connection area card."

    At the end of the process - after everything has been repaired - we get the following report:

    "Default gateway is not available - fixed.

    Should what measures we take to permanently solve this problem?

    Moreover, the iMac does NOT have Internet connection issues whatsoever.

    Thanks in advance!

    I don't know what you use to assign addresses, so I guess it's a router of some sort. You will need to go to the website of manufacturers, look at the manual and know how to limit the DHCP address field. I changed mine to limit the address 192.168.1.200 thanks 192.168.1.250 DHCP assignment. Your router can use the 10. subnet, so your address may be different, depends on the manufacturer of the router, or if you use a DHCP, the scope with the DHCP server. Gives me 50 IP addresses for all the guests who may want to use wired or wireless connections and should be more than enough. This allows me to attributed to the 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.199 a device and not having to worry about the DHCP server, you try to use one that is applied continuously to a device (printer, switch, PC, server, virtual server, etc.).

    Once this configuration of your router, you will now need to assign a static ip address to your PC. All this is done for the network card.

    On the start menu:
    Control Panel
    Network and Internet
    Network and sharing Center
    In the right pane of network and sharing Center
    Change the settings of the card
    Double-click your network adapter
    Check the box «Détails»
    Note the following lines:
    Connection specific DNS (may or may not exist, depends on the provider)
    IPv4 subnet
    IPv4 default gateway
    IPv4 DNS servers

    Once you have written those down, you can close this box.
    You should be back at the "Local Area Connection Status" box.
    Select the option "Properties".
    Select 'Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4)', which will be in a blue when selected.
    Now, select the option "Properties".
    "IP version 4 (TCP/IPv4) properties" box should have popped up. If so:
    Select the following text:
    "Use following IP address".
    In the IP address box, enter an IP address. Example: 192.168.1.20
    Press the tab, the subnet must fill automatically, otherwise, enter the "Subnet IPv4" value you noted in the above step. Examp, e: 255.255.255.0
    The bridge of dafult, enter the value of the above procedure. Example: 192.168.1.254

    Now switch to the next 2 boxes, DNS servers. You can have only 1 entry in DNS server of the DNS entry you noted from above.
    Enter the DNS servers that you noted above.

    If there is "Connection specific DNS" writing or entries, follow these steps (otherwise, skip the sections "Connection DNS"):
    Select the option "Advanced".
    The "Additional TCP/IP parameters" window should open
    Select the "DNS" tab

    If it has more than 1 input "Connection specific DNS", follow these steps:
    Select it "add DNS suffixes (in order):
    Select "Add..." »
    In the "suffix domain', enter the first connection specific DNS entry.
    Select the option 'Add '.
    Add all the specific DNS suffixes that you noted. You can enter one at a time.
    When the radio button finished choose "OK".

    If you have only 1 entry in "Connection specific DNS":
    Entitled "DNS suffix for this connection", enter the entry you noted above for the "specific" connection DNS
    When the radio button finished choose "OK".

    Check the "validate their output parameters.

    Select the radio button 'OK '.

    Select the radio button "close".

    You should see the "Windows Network Diagnostics' open and check for any problems. I hope that everything is fine and he says 'Troubleshooting couldn't identify the problem' and choose 'Close the Troubleshooter'.
    Close additional boxes or pop-ups that are open and check and make the connection sure allis. If not, go back and check all the steps. the most common are the IP addresses and gateways.

    Good luck. After back if it solves the problem.
