Problem connecting Wi - Fi networks unsecured with Windows 8

Hi all!

I have problems connecting to unsecure networks that require more authentication via browser thr, as networks of the hotel or Starbucks.
The networks work wirh all other devices I have, but on my laptop with Windows 8, it doesn't.
I get a "limited" connectivity and I can't sign on the browser page.
Why is it so? How can I fix?
Thank you!

Hi Emme,

The issue is limited to any particular Web site?

This problem can occur because of network settings.

Try the following and see if it helps.

Method 1:

I suggest you to run this utility from the following troubleshooting and check if it helps.

Network troubleshooting:

Open the network troubleshooter utility by hitting swipe in the edge right of the screen, tap Find (or if you use a mouse, pointing to the top right of the screen, move the pointer of the mouse down and then clicking search), saving troubleshooting network in the search box, touching or clicking on settings, and then type or identify and fix network problems.

Resolution of the problems of Internet connections:

Open the troubleshooter of Internet connections by hitting swipe in the edge right of the screen, tap Find (or if you use a mouse, pointing to the top right of the screen, move the pointer of the mouse down and then clicking search), entering the troubleshooting in the search box, touching or clicking on settings and then by typing or clicking on the resolution of the problems. Press or click Network and Internet and then press or click Internet connections.

Troubleshooting network adapter:

Open the network adapter troubleshooting utility by hitting swipe in the edge right of the screen, tap Find (or if you use a mouse, pointing to the top right of the screen, move the pointer of the mouse down and then clicking search), entering the troubleshooting in the search box, touching or clicking on settings and then by typing or clicking on the resolution of the problems. Press or click Network and Internet and then press or click on the network map.

Method 2:

This problem can occur if authentication enable IEEE 802. 1 X for this network checkbox is enabled. If this box is checked, but there is no server to authenticate the connection is interrupted. If you turn on the wireless network connection, it disconnects again after a short period.

To disable authentication IEEE 802. 1 X, follow these steps:

a. press "Windows + R" key on the keyboard to open the run window.

b. type ncpa.cpl, and then press ENTER.

c. right click on your wireless network connection, then click Properties.

d. click the wireless networks tab.

e. under preferred networks, click your wireless network, and then click Properties.

f. click on the Authentication tab, click to clear the authentication enable IEEE 802. 1 X for this network check box and then click OK twice.

Method 3:

  • Problem connecting to the Buffalo TeraStation with Windows 7 Pro

    Our network has a server running Win2K AD files.  We have added a Buffalo TeraStation TS - X 2. BTA/R5 for more than a year to complete our storage.  Since that time, we had computers, Windows 2000, Windows XP Pro and Windows Vista Pro, and trendy Home and works very well with the Buffalo TeraStation.  Recently, we have replaced Windows 2000-based computers with Windows 7 Pro computers.  Everything works fine - except that they do not connect to the TeraStation.  I can ping the TeraStation.  I can see the TeraStation.  But when I click on the TeraStation to access folders and files, I get an error as follows: "the folder. \\TS-XLFAA is not accessible.  You might not have permission to use this network resource.  Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.  The user name is not found. "All the other workstations access the TeraStation very well, because they always have.  I can't find a solution to this problem.  I tried setting the 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel' value to 1 and changed "network security: LAN Manager authentication level" to"send LM and NTLM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated". as suggested by others, but it didn't work.  Any ideas?  I have several Windows 7 Pro computers that cannot access the TeraStation storage.  Help!  Thank you...

    Browsing through the posts, I found something that worked.  It was suggested to disable the use of IPv6 in network properties and use the ip address of the NAS instead of the server name.  I opened windows Explorer and typed in the address like this: \\192.168.1.11\ and the server was available immediately...

  • I can connect to my network, but with access "local only".

    Access to the "Local" network only
    I can connect to my network, but with access "local only".  Internet became more intermittent (not sure if that is related or if I guess it) and did not work in several weeks.  Desktop computer is plugged into the router, but have the same problem when it is plugged into the DSL modem.  Other computers on the same router (wireless or other) work very well.  Recently, I removed Mcaffee and installed MS security essentials.  I uninstalled mcaffee of programs and settings then used the mcaffee removal tool to lighten the rest.  I uninstalled and reinstalled MS security essentials.  I thought it might be a firewall issue, but I get error 0x6D9 when I try to start it.  I tried all the steps in the following post, nothing helps.  Any other suggestions?

    Link: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/928233
    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

    9. in the value data box, type 1 and then click OK.
    10. close the registry editor.
     
    By setting this registry key to 1, Windows Vista's trying to get an IP address using the BROADCAST flag in DHCP Discover packets. If that fails, he will try to obtain an IP address without using the BROADCAST flag in DHCP Discover packets.
    You can also try uninstalling and reinstalling the driver for the wireless card.

  • I have a problem connecting to the internet. A windows security message appears requesting a user name and password.

    network/security problem

    I have a problem connecting to the internet. A windows security message appears requesting a user name and password. I spoke with my internet provider and they say it's problems with windows. Administering the computer was an old laptop that isn't in use anymore so I can't change the admin settings. Is that what you can offer and do you need more information about me?

    How you connect to the internet, dsl / comcast / wireless.

    The installation disk of your ISP to the main computer, then put it to the top with a modem what ever, after that you can reload the disc of routers and probably have to reset the default password,

    Once you get the configuration of your Internet service provider again then your router again you can re - enter the wireless or wired computers to the new network,

    It identifies the network properly even when I put the password - and that is the password - the comment poster 'there was a problem connecting to the network.  The WiFi network, you are trying to reach cannot be found. "Yet he already told me that the network is correct.  Frustrated!

  • PROBLEM CONNECTING TO SQL 2008 EXPRESS WITH ASP CLASSIC BETWEEN THE WORKSTATIONS ON A PRIVATE NETWORK

    I have created a private network (no internet connection) of four workstations, each running a SQL Express 2008 installation.  All four laptops are running Windows 7 Professional.  I created a homegroup for this private network.  While I don't care sharing of files between the four workstations, I have three of them in order to connect to the SQL 2008 Express database on the fourth mobile through channels of connection in the classic ASP programs.  Each of the four laptops can see others in the network.  I can ping the ip addresses of each to the other without any problem.  When I try to launch the ASP program on three laptop computers that attempt to connect to the SQL database on the fourth, I get the server does not exist or don't access denied error '80004005'.  The same program can also run on the fourth laptop and connects to the SQL database with no problems.  I tried to use SQLOLEDB and SQLNCLI10 provider in the chain of connection on the other three.  This operation fails.  I tried to add the IP address of the computer hosting the database as a Data Source in the connection on the other three string and still fails.  Named pipes and TCP/IP are enabled.  Each laptop can connect to the instance of SQLEXPRESS executed on each, but I need three to be able to connect to the instance of SQL Express running on the fourth.  Any ideas what I can do wrong?  This connection string works fine in the ASP program to connect to the local database on each laptop:

    Connection.Open "PROVIDER = SQLOLEDB; Server = computername\sqlexpress; UID = MyUser; PWD = MyUserPassword; DATABASE = MyDatabase ".

    Nothing seems to work for the chain of connection than the other three laptops to do to connect to this database on the fourth laptop.

  • Unable to connect to wireless networks more. ("Windows could not connect to (SSID)")

    Hello!

    Something very strange is happening with my laptop (dv6-3060ee). Up to this day at noon, everything worked well, including the wireless network. So, I set my computer to Hibernate and came to the House of my parents. As I turn it on and try to connect to the wireless here, I can't. I get this error "Windows could not connect to (name of the network).

    I'm on W7 Home Premium 64-bit and the card wireless in an Atheros 9285 b/g/n (model number can be a problem, I have it does not properly check).

    Things to consider:

    -I don't know that this is not a router problem or hardware WiFi card because:

    1. I can connect to the router and get internet access on my phone and with the other computer normally.

    2. on the laptop, I can not connect to the network without wire inside W7, BUT with HP QuickWeb (this system of Opertaing before loading windows), I can normally connect to the network and access to internet.

    -Have you ever tried, without success:

    1 reinstall the driver for the wireless card / Unistalling the driver and install it again

    2. change the encryption on the router. (Even with no encryption I can't connect)

    3. of course, restarting the computer, turn off/on of the network card, reset the router

    So, I'm sure it's a problem with Windows. I did some research here and in other places and other people seem to have the same problem, but I couldn't find any solution.

    I didn't install any software today which could cause conflicts.

    So, can someone help me, please?

    Thank you

    Thank you for your help, but I'd already sorted.

    The problem was really the driver, an update had been installed by the HP update program and it makes the device stop working. This problematic driver was March, I can't remember the version number.

    I went to the Device Manager and pressed on "Roll Back Driver". Windows restored to an October/2009 driver, 8.0.0.238 version number, and now it works as it should.
