Of the wired wireless

I have a new dv7 in transit. This will be my first experience with the radio.

I currently have an Ethernet wired home linking two desktop computers and two printers via a netgear router with VPN and hardware firewall to the internet via a modem cable. The two existing computers are running Windows XP SP2, will lead the new laptop Vista Home Premium 32-bit. I was told that the systems should have no problem of communication between them as a peer network.

Clearly, I can simple cable the new computer to the existing network, but would like to have freedom of movement for the laptop offered over a wireless connection. The new laptop will be wireless "N".

I'm looking for are suggestions, or links to other sites, to connect wireless to wired network. The existing network is running well so I prefer to leave the router existing in place if possible. Can someone suggest a simple gateway (read inexpensive) to the existing router? Or, the router will have to be replaced to ensure a reliable and secure?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might be able to offer.

dv7t-1000CTO Vista Home Premium (32 bit)
DV6-1350us Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)

Thanks again for your response. Looks like I might as well have an "N" router to take advantage of the ability of "N" of the new computer laptop to good quality. I was lucky enough to have set up the network with minimum conflict, I guess I can do it again. I made some superficial point access material prices and found that it is just cheaper than a good router minimumly.

  • Ranging from the wired wireless and vice versa

    I have users who have laptops and connect to the network via a cable, and then decide to leave (as due to a meeting), so that they log off and back on the radio.  Then, at some point, they decide to reconnect.  When they do, they lose the connection to their files and lose changes and others.  I think it's normal behavior, is it?

    The wireless network is natted on the cable network, so the TCP/IP addresses are different. Wired is 192.168.100.x, wireless is 192.168.10.X.

    I actually found the reason, but thanks for the reply.  Additional examination of the end-user concluded she was disconnected while she had open files across the network, then re-login and turning off the wireless, again with these files open.  Then she stated that the files have been insensitive.  I think that, since our wireless is a range of different addresses, which she connects to the without wire when you are connected to the wired network, then disconnect, but when going back to the wired network, it is probably turn off the wireless before she was able to negotiate a connection on the cable network.  These valleys have a problem to connect via ethernet, while the wireless.

  • Current file to use when it is disconnected from the network wireless/wired - shared network drive

    Hello

    We have a problem where we receive a "file in use" message when you are disconnected from the network. To reproduce the problem, what we do is:

    (1) connect to the wired network wireless disabled with

    (2) create a test document

    (3) to enter text and save on network share

    (4) remove the network cable

    (5) add additional text

    (6) reconnect the network cable

    (7) try to save the file to the network share

    At the beginning by clicking the X is the new message you want to save. Click Yes and the message arrives until the next time you hit the Hit of X no. and he loses the last change.

    From here we then go up to the network share, open the file and it comes up with "file in use. Open read-only. File is opened by us (Administrator account), and there is NO temporary file in the shared folder.

    Tried so far:

    -Run net config server/autodisconnect:-1 for trying to stop it disconnect the share

    -Checked pane, pane preview and off 'display the description of the pop-up window for folder and desktop items '.

    -Windows Update

    We try to reproduce on wired connection, because it is easier to reproduce that disconnects wireless. Seems to have an impact on several operating systems. Share folder is shared on a Windows 2008 R2 x 64 machine.

    Is this a known problem or is there something that we can configure to try to prevent the locking file after logging out? Ideally, we want the decline to go unnoticed and provide uninterrupted service to the user, unless they are trying to save during the fall.

    Thanks in advance for comments :)

    Thank you all who responded and have tried to help me. Before posting, I tried most of the mentioned patches, including upgrading my firmware of the router. In addition, I went to Device Manager and scanned for changes and checked the properties under the Advanced tab of the Wifi link adapter. I tried the update driver and deactivation and activation of the device. None of this has worked.

    Finally, I uninstalled and then reinstalled the Wifi card. It worked. I guess the driver software became corrupt and data of the register of the device had probably need re - install, this is what worked. This seems to happen when upgrading Windows operating systems prior to WIN 7 and later people lose their wifi connection. Then this problem develops.

    It worked for me. I hope this works for others with the same problem.

    Once again I thank you all.

  • WRT310N V2 - unable to connect to the wired LAN, wireless is OK

    I know that there are similar problems posted everywhere, but I can't seem to find the right solution. My WiFi works fine but cable did not see the router or on the internet. A few details:

    I can communicate between hosts and wireless on the router.

    The router assigns the IP both wired and wireless.

    The wired connection works on the laptop and wireless works on it, too.

    Wired does not work on the desktop, there is no wireless capability.

    Cable cannot reach 196.168.1.1, wireless can.

    I have updated the firmware of the router.

    I installed the latest drivers for the NIC.

    The office (cable) connects to the internet via cable modem, without going through the router.

    I have no firewall active or other security features.

    Same results with Firefox, IE, and Casimir FTP.

    I turned off, turned on, rebooted, changed the ports and everything else I can think.

  • Wired laptop but unable to connect to the laptop wireless wireless PC can connect cable PC OK

    I have a wired network on whiich, I connected a WAP54G access point for my laptop wireless to children. They are never anything other that connect to the internet, so I never noticed this before. Now, I bought my own laptop and that you want to connect from my main computer but the laptop is not visible on the network. I then connected directly on the laptop to the network wired through an ethernet cable, and it was visible from the wired PC as you would expect. Back fi he returned invisible.

    Does anyone have ideas, what could cause this behavior?

    Thanks for all your comments

    Presumably using your XP or Vista!

    You need to change network settings into the laptop to allow remote connections according to the directives of the wired connection.

    You will also need to make changes to the false firewall XP/Vista has as well.

    FYI: The WAP54G has no way to filter all network traffic, so the question is not to the AP.

  • Automatically use the wired on wireless LAN connection when using the docking station

    Hey guys!

    I use the my T500 with the Advanced Mini Dock @TheDude recommended in this thread: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T500-Recommended-Compatible-Docking-Station...

    I had almost a month now, and whenever I anchor my laptop I have to pass the connection wireless switch off hard or using FN + F5 and extinguish this particular radio.

    Is it possible to have the computer automatically choose the wired connection when it is available, otherwise use the wireless radio?

    I use Windows 7 Prof 64 bit.

    Thank you

    ThinkVantage Access Connections (AC) can be configured to do this. Change your location profile and change the order of the adapter associated with this place, for example, order first as Wired and Wireless second.

    When I am connected Wired and I pull the Ethernet cable, AC will switch to using wireless automatically. When I put the Ethernet back in, it starts automatically by using the wired and wireless don't report limited or no connectivity (which means that the switch has occurred). You will have to perhaps set up wireless in AC power options, i.e. disable radio when not in use (I did not sentence again).

    This could be similar to a docking station solution. Mine is without docking station; When I'm at the office and go to a meeting, I pull the wire and have continuity.

    Ideally, the CA should provide a solution. But it may take some fiddling.

  • wireless system tray icon disappears when the wired connection is present

    When I plug in ethernet, the wireless icon disappears in the system tray.  Sometimes I connect to a Wi - Fi, and at the same time.

    Is there a way to make it stay put?

    Hello

    It is not possible to show the two notification icons when you connect to a Wi - Fi network and at the same time in the system tray.

    When you connect to a wired connection, it will display the wired connection icon and if you connect to the internet wireless, it will display an icon of wireless connection. Both will appear in the same time.

    However if you have connected both cables and wireless Internet, it will show you one of the two icons based on the priority that you have set.

    We can change the priority of the network connections and make them follow an order of desired connection. You can make Windows 8 use wired connection instead of wireless. When you start your laptop, if there is a wireless connection, your Windows laptop will connect to the Wi - Fi connection. Even if you connect to a wired connection, usage will continue to be the Wi - Fi connection. This is because, when more than one network connection is available, Windows uses the one with the lowest metric value.

    To change the priority of network connection, follow the steps.

    a. press the Windows key + C.

    b. Select Search and then type network connections.

    c. now, click the ALT key to open the convening of Menu bar. Click on advanced settings. This will open the properties box.

    d. under the tab cards and links, you will see the list of connection and Windows services related to the order in which they are consulted by network connections and others. The default value is Wi - Fi, Ethernet, and then remote access. The network connections service manages objects in the network and remote access connections folder, in which you can view the local area network and remote connections. Using up and down arrows, you can change their order and set it according to your priorities. When you change the setting as shown above and make Ethernet as first choice, your laptop will use the wired connection first by choice.

    e. click OK and the output.

    Your Windows PC will now follow this order of priority when the detection of the available network connections.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • Force the VM to use the wired ethernet port instead of wireless

    Hello

    I use ver 9 workstation.  I have my host computer (win 7 64 bit) connected to our network of offices using the connection with wireless computers.

    I use a windows xp based virtual machine image that connects to devices of 3rd party via the ethernet port wired in Bridge mode.

    Is there a way to force the workstation on the use of only the cable connection and don't EVER try to connect via the wireless?

    At the moment I have to disable the wireless for the workstation to access cable port, if the without wire is activated, so you may not see anything on the wired port...

    It also causes headaches with ip address conflicts (3rd devices use the same IP range as our network of offices) if I don't have the VM running and wireless power.

    Any help or advice would be appreciated

    Use the virtual network Editor to bind to the target adapter for VMnet0 and set the NIC of the virtual machine to use connected by a bridge.

    Might be a question that was answered before, but not was not able to find a specific answer, I 1 R7000 acting like normal router and switch (therefore wireless and wired devices are connected) to expand both my signal wireless on the upper floors and create additional ports wired, I bought a second R7000. My question is when I put the device in Access Point mode will be the devices that are connected via ethernet cable communicate via wann connection or the connection wirelessly to the main router R7000?

    the Setup is so--> r7000 as router Modem - connection--> R7000 as accesspoint--> multiple connections wired to various wired computers.

    Hi Jer9009,

    Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.

    ·         Could you give the exact error code or error number you get?

    To connect multiple computers, install a network adapter in each and run a network CAT5 cabling to connect each one to a hub (and thus the other.) The computer that will serve as a transition will have a standard network card for wired and a wireless network adapter that will connect to the wireless (WAP) access point or gateway on the second network.

    A network bridge is software or hardware that connects two networks or more so that they can communicate. You can create only a single bridge network on a computer, but a bridge can handle any number of network connections.
