Problems with the modem on L40 (Vista)

Hi guys,.

I am trying to help a friend out with his new laptop computer, as she dosen't have DSL and needs must use dial-up. I'm new to Vista so please tell me if I'm missing something obvious.

Right... I use the same cable modem and telephone line that also works on another PC, and before ask you I pluged it in the modem port and not the ethernet port. I can query the modem ok by Device Manager / modem properties. I noticed that the modem is configured for some software of Toshiba and not a comm port, is this correct? When you look at the software Toshiba itself it looks like the comm3

When I try to create a dial-up connection / use dialer I get the error that it cannot get dial tone, I also tried to change the setting so that he always tries to dial without tone, nothing helps. If it works on another PC ok, I'd say it was the cable modem or phone line.

Any ideas?

See you soon

Hello

Are you if that cell phone is properly connected to the telephone line in the wall?

  • Connectivity problem - problem with the modem or the router of network

    I had a network with 2 computers.  The main computer was a Windows XP operating system and the secondary is a Windows Vista operating system.  There was a modem connection and the router. Due to a storm and a leak in my ceiling in my main computer got wet and I couldn't use it.  I have connected the modem without the router directly to the secondary computer, but it is not recognize the modem.  "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage." So I ran the diagnostics and received a message that there could be a problem with the modem or the network router.  I did the thing 'ipconfig' and there is no gateway.  Is there anything I should do to make this secondary computer main computer?

    Hello

    If you use a router there is no primary and secondary, all the computers connected to the router are equal.

    Many Internet service providers allow you to control some form of autehtication (ID, PW) online journal.

    Your router and the computer humid probably were installed to authenticate.

    If the router does not use it.

    Otherwise, contact your ISP and ask for the help of authentication.

  • Problem with the Cisco VPN and Vista client

    Hello

    I have an easy VPN server configured on a c2811 and users use the Cisco VPN client. Lately, I have users running Windows Vista 64 bit and I need to know what is the correct version of the vpn client, I have to use and the compatibility problems with the server, I configured.

    Thank you and best regards.

    Cisco VPN Client doesn't have any version that is compatible with Vista 64 bit OS. The only customer that Cisco has released that supports the 64 bit OS's AnyConnect, but it is only supported on the CISCO ASA Appliance

  • Problems with the modem Toshiba G450

    Hello

    We faced a problem. We have installed a software and drivers of Toshiba g450 on different laptops to use it as a modem for a mobile phone network. When we have logged in as administrators all fine, when we have logged on as a normal user in the field, the software will search the modem without success. We do not have such a problem with other USB modems.

  • Satellite P200 - 14 H - problem with the software after reinstalling Vista whindows

    I have a Satellite P200 - 14 H, who bought systems Activ of Romania. I got a Toshiba DVD with an image pre-configured Windows and my driver's license windows vista Home premium. After several blue screens windows crashed after 5 days. It was a software problem. I am a network administrator and I need several virtual machines Linux vmware server Windows.

    The DVD provided with the laptop is not really suited to my needs to reinstall windows because it throws my entire hard drive and is not an option. I took a friend a DVD windows vista Home premium and using my key from the sticker on the back of my laptop I reinstalled win without deleting all of the hard drive but only the partition c. I downloaded all the drivers of your site even if I found them really hard (model PSPB6E because that model PSPB6E I don't find it anywhere) everything is good except that "Flash Cards Support Utility" and «» Hardware Setup' give me the following error: "serial number is invalid '. I don't know what to do to be able to use the function keys I knew which are installed by 'Flash Cards Support utility'.

    If it is not good that I did give me another solution that does not need to wipe entire HARD drive, but only the C drive and use the DVD that you have provided or give me access to some place to be able to download all the drivers and software that can be found on the original DVD (those above and to burn DVD and Norton internet security center and so on)

    Thank you very much and please be so kind to give me a solution quickly because I really need this computer and I am unable to use it.

    Hi Adrian

    I'll try to clarify a few things;
    First the drivers for Satellite P200 - 14 H PSPB6E series are placed on the page of Toshiba Europe and it of really not difficult to find.
    Secondly the Vista serial key, which is located on the bottom of the unit cannot be used with another copy of Vista OS! This will not work!

    You have installed the operating system Vista from the CD to friends, but you used a serial key that does not match with the Vista on CD to friends! As a result, you get the message error "serial number is invalid!"
    The utility of Flash cards is required to use the keys FN under Win Vista. It visually shows the use of the FN button.

    I would recommend another way of installation
    First, you must use the DCD from Toshiba recovery. Back up your data first!
    Then after installing the OS, create a new partition and install your favorite OS (Linux, XP, etc.)

    If you n t to use the Toshiba recovery but CD the original Microsoft CD Vista then you need to use the original series OS key that belongs to the MS Vista CD.

    Good bye

  • Anyone having problems with the modem from Cox and Time Capsule

    Hello

    Lately my internet falls down every day or every two days with Cox. I have reset the modem, the time capsule, the routers extreme apple, etc. shut down and restart my whole network. I called Cox every two days to refresh the modem.

    I heard that I may need to reconfigure my Time Capsule (acts as a router) to avoid this problem.

    No one knows what to do here?

    Thank you

    Please, try the following:

    Open the AirPort on your Mac utility (Finder > Applications > utilities > AirPort Utility)

    Click on the image of the time Capsule

    Click on edit in the window that appears

    Click on the Internet tab at the top of the next window

    Click the Internet Options button at the bottom of the window

    Make sure that the IPv6 configuration is set to Local link only

    Click on save, if you make changes, then click Update at the bottom right of the window

    When Cox fully implements IPv6 (they are not), you may be able to return to the automatic configuration.

  • Problems with the response time of Vista

    I bought a Dell Inspiron Laptopn with Vista on 17/05/2007. Mine is the slower machine in the office, and despite a 3 GB of memory. I recently bought a Dell Vostro with Windows 7. Great job with the product "7". How can I update my Dell Inspiron with Windows 7, I'm really sick of the speed it fires.

    Also my IE crashes while browsing

  • Problem with the drivers after changing Vista-> WinXP on R61i

    At first I want to mention that I am new to this forum and my native language is not English (sorry for the mistakes of language).

    Computing: Lenovo R61i 8943 g

    Foreplay:

    In the new computer Windows Vista has been installed, but I decided to switch to a Windows XP Professional.There had a few issues with the SATA controller (computer has no floppy drive). After all, I managed to install a new system.

    Description of the problem:

    I can't install the drivers to the computer (internet does not - same wired: ethernet, there is no sound, etc.) In Control Panel-> system-> device-> devices Manager there are yellow questions marks (with small exclamation points) around: network controller, PCI Device, unknown device (what is?), video controller, and video controller (VGA compatible).

    There is no CD that came with this computer, so I tried to find the necessary drivers on the internet.

    On the page

    Lenovo, drivers and downloads support

    I chose [network] to refine the results (first I want to activate ethernet Internet connections) and clicked on

    Broadcom NetLink Gigabit Ethernet software for Windows XP - ThinkPad R500, R61, R61e, R61i

    There is a file 7yra02ww.exe. At the last moment of the installation, the following window appears:

    Broadcom NetLink Gigabit Ethernet Software for Windows has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

    I don't know if I tried to install the appropriate driver. After I tried to install Access Connections (think Vantage Technologies) of

    ThinkVantage Access Connections for Windows XP, 2000-computers portable, but it also fails.

    Could someone help me what to do (what drivers to install and how)? Thank you in advance. Matthew.

    Thank you, Tim_Lenovo. My second post was about a possibility of making the easy instalation, but no one answered. Thanks - next time I'll use the system update

    I don't know what you got almost everything square away exactly means (I'm not so good in English), but I think it speaks of my redundant work.

    And the solution of my problem is very easy! I installed what it takes and just use the control panel-> power-> advanced options. (I think that my mind needs a rest!). In device manager there is a yellow question mark on unknown device (without power management there are two unknown devices without driver), so I thought that I need an additional driver. That's why I was always looking for appropriate software. A solution was so close to me

    I hope that the system update helps a lack of driver for a device unknown (I wonder what it is).

  • Problem with the Modem devices: Modem already used or not properly configured

    I use windows 8. Until last night, my laptop was working fine, but now it rejects all the modem devices, I try to plug it. I tried to connect to internet via Auntie photon and reliance netconnect +, but this message "Modem already in use or not properly configured" keeps on appearing two modem devices? Is there a problem with my OS or my laptop? Help, please

    Thanks for the solution.
    Well, my problem was similar but different too. The method to uninstall the modem device is correct. I tried, but still it did not work.
    My problem was that I have 3 different modems installed on my pc, but I used one of them. So I would uninstall only one I used. It turns out that we have to uninstall all modems. Its pretty simple, but its not so obvious. I thought about it later in like 2 days. I hope that people reading this don't have to wait 2 days to fix this problem.
  • Problems with the modem with XP Pro

    I upgraded to XP Pro and cannot create a dial-up connection because this option is not available for me. I checked the Microsoft support pages and enabled dial-up as suggested by using regedit.
    Still no difference. So I guess that the modem or the modem settings are the problem.

    In Control Panel, if I go to phone options and modem, I see "Toshiba Software modem AMR COM4" but, if I go into the settings of the Modem in Control Panel, I get the message that the modem is not installed correctly and I have to uninstall and reinstall. I did this several times without success.

    He drives me crazy - can anyone help?

  • Problem with the modem after reloading XP on Satellite Pro M10

    I recently rebooted XP on my Pro M10 and now I get the message in the Modem Properties: Diagnostics: Query Modem - "the port that the modem is attached could not be opened. This is perhaps due to a hardware conflict. Check the Device Manager to verify that all devices are functional. As far as I know, the device displays the modem (COM3) Manager works OK. But it's not!
    Can anyone help? Thank you.

    Hello
    Before starting the discussion on the modem can you please be more specific with the term reloaded? You reinstall the unit using the recovery CD or Microsoft full version CD?
    It is very important because after the installation of the recovery CD, it should work properly because the image of Toshiba includes the correct driver for the modem. Otherwise, you should try to reinstall the modem using the right of the page to download CD Tools or Toshiba driver.

  • Satellite A200 - 13 M - XP x 64 - problems with the modem drivers and webcam

    Hello!
    I recently installed Windows XP x 64 on my laptop.
    I have two devices that do not work properly.

    (1) does anyone know how to get the driver for the built-in modem? There is no version the x 64 required for download.

    (2) the webcam does not work. I had a problem of 'Windows Image Acquisition': error telling me to put this service to activate the webcam. The problem is that this service is, by default, already activated.

    Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    You are right. 64-bit drivers are not available. Unfortunately, 64-bit version is not supported. To be honest, I'm sure that the modem is not so important for you and you can turn off this feature.

    I can't say much because I use the 32-bit operating system only on webcam.

  • Problem with the modem does not

    I come from Netflix through Wii I can get on it and upload a movie, then when I go back and try to get another or do something else, he says I am offline. The modem no longer works. I can't use WiFi on Iphone either. I can close my modem for a bit then he put on my internet Iphone works and will Netflix. I get Netflix early looking around, then he'll do it again.

    Thanks for any help.

    Let's see... your post included Netflix, Wii (by Nintendo), iPhone (by Apple), an unidentified modem (which may or may not include your wireless router) and does not mention your ISP.  Why do you ask your question in a forum of Windows XP?

    Just guessing, but I would say you should replace your wireless router or talk to your service provider.

  • I have a problem with the download of Windows Vista Service Pack 2.

    Original title: Vista SP2 help for download

    I just download Vista SP2 on my Compaq Presario PC and it seemed to install correctly.  However, after it restarted my computer, nothing happened.  The computer was on, but he was not making a noise and the screen was black (and eventually appeared in mode 'sleep').  After about 3 hours of this, I restarted my computer manually. When I turned it on the Tower made a lot of noise (sounded like a blowing fan), but the screen remained black and didn't try again to exit mode 'sleep' (even when I moved my mouse and restarted my monitor).  I am unable to do anything on my desk now, then, what can I do to fix this?

    Thanks for the help.

  • Strange problem with the button "Enter" in Vista on Satellite P300-225

    A few weeks ago I don't remember exactly when, Windows Vista on my Satellite P300-225 began to spend an incorrect applications scancode when you press the Enter key. It always sends the scancode of key keyboard, even when I hit than the alphanumeric part of the keyboard. It was working properly some time ago, but suddenly, it just started acting like that. No remapping all keys.

    Since there are very few programs that Act different on these two keys, it has become quite an annoying problem.

    The strangest part of it, is that the problem seems to be somehow related to Windows Vista, as the keys are properly reported on Linux.

    If anyone has any idea, please let me know.

    > I'll give a try to uninstall the keyboard in SafeMode but.
    Please post the result.
