If you can connect successfully on your local LAN but can't remember, from a remote location, you have TCP Port 3389 open on the firewall and/or router as the server/host DRC PC is behind. Call using the public IP address of the router or the server/host DRC if your connected directly to a modem. You must also assign the host/PC one DRC address static IP of the server so if you restart the server/host DRC PC it keep its local LAN IP.

  • Computer Vista laptop cannot connect to new wireless router

    I had the laptop for about a year and a half, and he has a history of being pretty skittish about the wireless connection.  Often he simply refuses to do so.  During vacation last year, for example, the other three laptops connected family easily to wi - fi hotel, but mine has refused to.  There are a lot of other moments when the laptop could not connect, but I was able to connect to two most important places - home and work - without much trouble, and so I haven't looked too hard to solve the problems of connection up to now.

    This week, I replaced the router in my original configuration.  The old Netgear router kept giving up the connection between her and my ISP.  The new Linksys router looks rock solid in this regard.  I have a desktop running XP computer that is wired to the new router Linksys, and he sees the internet very well.  My laptop Vista unable to connect (wireless), however.  He sees the network with a lot of intensity of the signal, and it tries to connect.  I get a message saying that the connection takes longer than usual, and then another message saying 'connected.'  However, I do not have internet access, and I see other devices (just the XP desktop, really) on the network.  The Network and Sharing Center shows my laptop connected to the 'unidentified network', and then there is a red X between this network and the Internet (represented by a grey globe).  Laptop computer signals its 'access' as "local only".

    From the desktop, I can access the internet, so the router is connected to the points upstream.  From the desktop, I can also access the router configuration pages, and I see that it does not list the laptop as a dhcp client, even if the laptop thinks that it is connected.

    ipconfig on laptop computer displays a wacky IPv4 address: 169.254.2.91 and I guess that the laptop does not get an address passed to the router.  I think that there should be a 192.168. *. * address if it worked properly.

    Now, I was pretty sure my laptop's wireless adapter to work properly.  It always connects to the old router and it always connects to the work.  But to be sure and really test the new router, I went out and bought another USB adapter wireless.  When I plug it into the computer to Office XP, the Office connects to the router and can see the internet (even with the connection cable is disconnected).  So the new router and the new wireless USB adapater properly.  When I plug the USB wireless adapter into the laptop, the laptop still can't connect and still not get a good ip address assigned by the router.

    I've been at this for a few days now, and I could really use some help.  I read a few items in the Microsoft forums that was supposed to fix the problem.  One of them told me to try to start a program called DHCP in the Administrative Tools folder.  I do not have this program on my computer.  Another told me manually change my registry (ouch!) and add a new DWORD value, and set its value to 1.  I did, but it did not fix the problem.

    I would be very grateful for any help.

    Alright.  I am home to work and back again.  I have read several posts with people reporting problems similar to mine, so I guess I'm not alone in this.  In a thread, the experts proposed to start in Mode safe mode with networking.  So I gave that a shot.  I still couldn't really connect - just this 'local only' without an assigned IP address.

    One thing I did notice, is that my laptop brand and its wireless adapter seem to get a special mention in most positions.  I have a HP Compaq Presario CQ50 Notebook PC running Vista Home Premium SP2, 32-bit version (even if the processor is 64-bit).  The wireless adapter is an Atheros AR5007.  Several other people with this card have reported problems.  Maybe it's the cause?

    I look into updating the driver for the card, even if yesterday's test with the separate USB wireless adapter showed that the problem could not just be limited to the Atheros card.  To search for a driver update, I connect my laptop to the router with an ethernet cable.  It's nice to see the web on your laptop.  No update driver does.

    For fun, I try to establish a wireless connection with the router, while the wired connection is still in place.  Looks like maybe it worked?  I say a little prayer and unplug the ethernet cable...

    It's a miracle!  I have a wireless connection to the router and beyond, to the internet.  Huzzah!

    The network has a real name, too, instead of just 'unidentified network '.  I want to change the network type from the public to the private, which I was unable to do while he was still 'unidentified '.

    Can I terminate the connection so that I can see what happens when I try to reconnect.

    Another miracle!  It connects to and still see the internet.  Callooh!  Colay!

    Next test: see what happens after a reboot... (please, please, please)...

    Ch-ching!  It works again!

    Final (?) test: reinstall the McAffee internet security suite and restart.

    And it still works.

    Here's a recap of what I found:
    1. laptop could not connect wireless router again, despite dozens of attempts in which I get every available straw
    2. laptop computer could see the internet when connected to the router
    3. laptop could connect wirelessly to the router while the wired connection is in place
    4. Once this first wireless, laptop computer was able to connect to the router even when the wired connection has been removed and the computer restarts

    I would describe my discovery above as a work-around rather than as a solution, however.  It does not always help me stay connected the next time I'm on vacation, for example.  But perhaps the information I provided can help experts to diagnose the real problem a little.

    I look forward to hear something back.

  • now I connect to bt openzone, but internet cannot connect to the DNS PRIMARY server

    I use bt openzone when far but now it connects ok but internet programs cant open and said diagnosis primary dns server cannot answer. I don't know why this has happened. Would it be when I installed AVG free in lieu of Norton

    I completed my registration with avast in license number. How I did it I don't know I could not find the screen with the orange ball, but a glance at the registration page and am a year.

    I then left my hub bt (router) and tried to get with bt openzone and to my surprise, it works. I tried twice and each time bt openzone put me in the btfon and and I opened MSN.

    I think we can say the job done.

    Thank you for your interest and your help.

  • Old computer reinstalled XP cannot connect to the internet. Could not find the iexplore

    I have an old computer.  I reinstalled Windows XP on it about 30 days ago.  I can't connect to the internet.  I bought 2nd hand computer and I bought my own version of XP directly from Microsoft.  I can't activate.  I can not even find iexplore.  Any suggestions?  I installed a driver for the ethernet card and still nothing.

    I've never dealt with XP MCE, but from what I've seen, you can get ambiguous messages during the installation process.  MCE was never intended for installation by end users; It came normally pre-installed on computers that have the necessary equipment to support additional features 'media '.

    It seems to me that if you have to start over.  First of all, you should get a prompt for "Windows XP Professional CD2" - who wants to have the second of the two CDs.  Then you should get a prompt for "XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD." In response to this prompt, insert the CD first back in.

    Assuming that work better than before, right-click on desktop and select Properties.  If the display shows service pack 2 - which I believe it will be - you only need to install sp3.

    There are 153 images in this catalog, all on 1 external. Which does not seem right, or you expect very different numbers, could you give me an idea of what numbers you expect?

    This seems to be an empty catalog with any folder. It seems to me that you have opened an empty catalog somehow. Could you please try file-> open the recent item and see if any of the other catalogues listed is the one you want? If this does not work, could you please try to restore a recent backup of your catalog file and see if the situation is resolved?

  • Why "problem loading page" appears when I try to start firefox? I can access the page relevent medium of internet explorer, but firefox cannot connect to the web.

    A few days ago Firefox has stopped working when you use the shortcut or exe. file. The message http://en-gb.start3.mozilla.com/firefox?client=firefox-a & rls = org.mozilla: en - GB:official appears, even if when I paste this address in internet explore it works. What is preventing firefox to connect?

    One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox without you informing on this subject, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox.

    See Server not found - the problems of connection and Configure the firewall so that Firefox can access the Internet and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls

  • Satellite A505 - sees, but cannot connect to, Wireless Router Win7

    I have a laptop Toshiba A505-S6980 running the 64 bit version of Windows 7.

    It worked fine a few months previously, to connect wireless to my O2 2 wireless router (the notebook has a REALTEK RTL8191SE wireless card).

    I also have a desktop running XP computer that I use to connect to the same router. While on the desktop, I noticed several weeks ago that the router has been implemented with no WPA and WEP security, so I decided to change the router to WPA. The desktop PC was fine with this, but the laptop complained and wouldn't connect, failure of authentication and just stating "unable to connect to xxxxx". At the time I assumed it just couldn't handle the WPA authentication for some reason any and decided that I would probably turn to WEP to a later date to make it work again. At some point, I remove a ' O2 Connection Manager ", which had been installed when I bought a 3G dongle O2, where he has confused the issue, but it made no difference. In the meantime, I tried to connect the laptop using a wired connection and worked well.

    I now (a few weeks later) decided that I wanted to use the wireless laptop then redefine the router to WEP expect this to work, but it didn't. As with WPA, he did not get past authentication when I put the key to security in. So, I try to understand the problem...

    What happens;

    (1) the wireless laptop sees my router (and neighbors), but just cannot connect.

    (2) I can connect with a laptop computer on the same USB wireless adapter.

    (3) I can connect the laptop to the router using a wired connection, and there is no problem.

    (4) my desktop running XP computer can connect to the router as WEP or WPA Wireless if the router is ok.

    (5) this worked several weeks ago!

    What I've tried;

    (1) I have installed the latest REALTEK RTK8191SE driver.

    (2) I tried to disable the security on the router, no joy.

    (3) I deleted all the profiles of network on the laptop.

    (4) I have tried with Norton antivirus and firewall disabled (but have not uninstalled) but no help.

    (5) I tried to do a restore of the system to the closest possible point and no help.

    (5) I uninstalled the wireless network adapter and its driver in Device Manager... Windows 7 can see the of it after a reboot and re - installed (using the old default driver), but it does not work. Then, I re-installed the latest version from REALTEK to ensure that it is up-to-date.

    What's weird is that

    (1) it works ok using the wireless USB adapter

    (2) the integrated REALTEK wireless adapter works to a point such that it can SEE my router, connect simply do not

    (3) authentication failure almost instantly

    My suspicions are that an automatic update of Windows 7 or the O2 Connection Manager has somehow screwed it upward. I have uninstalled the O2 connection manager and tried to uninstall the automatic updates but there are many of them and I don't know how far back, I need to go. Also, because it authentication immediately, it seems that it is not giving him a chance to actually work.

    Does anyone have any ideas on how I can proceed or had a similar problem?

    This is a really silly situation. In any case, I recommend you to use the Toshiba WLAN drivers only.
    I put t know what Realtek module is inside but try please install driver WLAN http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads

    All that you have done is logic and I think I will try the same thing.
    Have you tried to connect to WEP or WPA is disabled? I mean free WLAN without protection.
    Have you tried to connect your laptop to a friend's router?

    I really put t know what is the problem here but there are a few bad setting it.
