• Network Wi - Fi has disappeared from the list of available networks

  My network name has disappeared from my list of available networks and all 7 of my wireless devices decreased by connectivity.  When I plug in the router, the computer searches the available networks and the indicator light on the Ethernet cable is green, which indicates a good connection, I.  When I click on the connection status icon in the menu bar it says I am connected to my network, but I have "no Internet access.  Simply unplug the router or on the button reset gave no positive results. In addition, my computer is several security updates, for Windows and my package of Microsoft Office when he lost of connectivity, which may or may not have something to do with my connectivity problems, I don't know.  Is someone can please help me diagnose this connectivity problem?  Also, I have a Linksys WRT54G Router model # v8.

  In addition to everything above, I notice an unsecured network called "Linksys" keeps coming back when I plug in my router and canning when I disconnect it in the process of disappearance.  Linksys is NOT the name of my network.  This seems awfully curious, why what is happening?

  Thank you for your help.  My router was broken, he was not talking to the modem.

• Why I still see other appearing in my list of wireless network connection when network discovery is turned off?

  Why other users who are are my nearby?

  Can I be sure that they cannot see me when discovery of the network on my computer is off?

  Should I worry about these other users?

  I am the only computer in my home group, and my wife uses a Tablet using my wireless network key. but no one else has access to my home group.

  Discovery Network turns off the discovery of other devices that are already inside your trusted network (like your TV system game, tablets, phones and other computers).

  It does not affect the list of wireless network connection, which is actually just a list of wifi nearby broadcasting system has found.  You can not turn off without turning off your wifi.  But this isn't a security problem.

• HP Deskjet 3050 - unable to connect to the WPA secure wireless network

  Hello

  My first post here so please excuse any misstep on my part.  I bought this HP Deskjet 3050 a week ago and have since been war with it.  I would be really grateful if someone could possibly give advice on how I can solve this problem.

  I am unable to connect the printer to my secure wireless network, even if the other computers, cell phones, etc. are connected without problem.  I tried WPA, WPA2 and WPA2-Mixed modes with the same failure security. Specifically, the 66% reached Connection Wizard, then displays the error that the wizard can not find/network printer.  If I disable the security, the printer connects very well.

  I use a Linksys WRVS4400N router with firewall and associated firewall disabled settings.  The router broadcasts on 802. 11 g / N mixed mode.

  I install the software provided on the CD for installation on a Windows XP SP3 System.  I confirmed that the PC and the printer are connected to the network are the same.

  The issue as well, if you will allow me: I have not yet tried these drivers, but I see there are any updated drivers for the printer in date from 14/12/2010.  The release notes indicate the improvement of networks, but do not develop beyond that.  Does anyone know if there was a known problem with the connection to secure networks that has now been corrected?

  Finally, just a note that I am partially blind and using a screen on all systems reader.  I'll try my best to be as helpful as I can to please forgive me if I can't find the settings, etc. on screen and sometimes need help for a little more detail.

  Thanks in advance for your help, I really enjoyed.

  Have a nice day,

  All the best for now and take care,

  Hussein.

  It is not the fact that it is impossible, is the fact that this was not done, yet.

  Hello

  first of all, my apologies for the delay getting back to you.  Poor health means that I had little time or want to do great thing on the side of the computer of htings.

  In any case, I am please to say the problem with the HP 3050 failing to connect to my network is now resolved.  There seems to be a bug with the installer, and that seems to include the version the most recent publication Dec 2010.

  To resolve this problem, I did the following:
  1. disable all security for the network options, so it's just an open network.
  2. connect the HP 3050 to the network by using the installation wizard. This time it connected OK for me.
  3. Locate the IP address of the printer.  I used the table of customer list accessed by my router interface. You may be able to get this through the printer on the menu screen, but as I am partially blind, it wasn't an option for me.
  4. Enter the control panel of the printer to http://ip.address.of.printer for example http://192.168.2.108
  5. under Advanced options, configure the network settings, including the password and the Security Protocol.  Don't forget to enter the SSID of the network exactly as it is configured on the router.
  6. apply settings, disconnect from the control panel of the printer.
  7 log in the router configuration panel and re-apply the security options.  Make sure they match these match those entered for the printer.

  I hope it will be useful to others in the same position.

  Thanks again for your time.

  Best,

  H.

• disconnecting from the ad hoc wireless network

  I have problems with the ad-hoc wireless network connection. Internet connection is not necessary, I want to just connect two laptops vista to play Civilization4. We had two laptops connected properly for a few days and enjoyed the game. But now the connection does not appear to work properly.

  Two portable computers connect to each other and then after a short perion one of them disconnects with a message saying "in waiting for other users to connect."

  It's the same no matter what either portable sets up the connection.

  We tried to establish new connections of two laptops and welcomed the connections between each of them also, the problem is the same.

  We have tried to disable the firewall without success

  There are other parameters that we should look at?

If you have several USB devices, the USB network adapter can share, bandwidth, power or both to a level that it causes, you experience the symptoms described in the Symptoms"" section. To resolve this issue, try the following suggestions:

  • If the computer has more than one USB bus, connect the wireless network adapter to its own USB bus. Connect other USB devices to a different USB port. As a general rule, two USB ports share one USB bus.
  • Disconnect all USB devices that are unused or not.
  • Use a powered USB hub to connect the adapter to your computer.

• Unable to connect to a wireless network with Windows 7 computer laptop.

  After resetting my router netgear wireless home network, I have not been able to access my own network with my laptop. I already had access to the internet with a wireless ethernet cable and ankles bound to the router. After reset the netgear router, I was able to access the internet from two other laptops XP and an Acer mini wireless with no problems at all. But my new laptop Toshiba with Windows 7 could not connect, even if he could detect the network. I tried all day even resort to the ethernet socket and wireless cable, but even that would no longer work. I was able to connect using this same cable attached.

• How to share Sony Micro Hi Fi to a wireless network on Windows media player on my computer

  Original title: Media Player

  I am new on this forum and not particularly computer.

  I spent most of today trying to get my new Sony Micro Hi Fi to a wireless network with my computer to listen to music from my hard drive.
  I use Windows XP home and Windows Media Player 11.
  I managed to make a connection between my computer and the Hi Fi, but the Hi FI maintains e-mail "No Server"
  In Media Player, if I'm going to Library / Media Sharing icon CMT MX700... is displayed in the window but the 'Allow' button is not active, so I can't leave.
  If I click on the 'Settings' button and go to this page, I have the box "allow computers and new devices automatically" checked.
  I checked the router multicast TP Link setting is disabled. I tried disabling my Macafee firewall and also open the ports recommended for media sharing.
  I was also in the it management services and value Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service, HTTP SSL and automatic Plug-and-Play Auto Start Up.
  Can anyone offer advice?
  Thanks in advance
  Don

  Thanks for your advice.

  I followed it and any other links I could think of, but never had the Windows Media Player to the network.
  However I bypassed the problem with advice from the Sony Support by installing Serviio software that worked immediately.
