  Hi, so I have this old Sony Vaio for four years, I used a wired internet connection for the past four years, until what we moved house and received a wireless router. our friend connected to me, and everything worked well, until I had to format the system. I tried the troubleshooting, looked through various forums, but nothing helps, like many, I understood what to do. I reset the router and it works fine on the netbook to my mom, but on the vaio, it says unidentified network - local access only. just to add, it uses a system windows vista Home premium.

• Windows Vista - unidentified network Local Access only tried everything please help

  Hello

  I have an Acer Aspire M1610 running Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 and 2 days ago when I turned it on the internet was not working and it says unidentified network Local access only. I use a wired Ethernet connection. I don't know how it happened as before I had used the computer as usual and the Internet worked very well. I did a lot of research and read a few forum posts about this problem and tried a few solutions but non of them worked. I tried the following:
  (1) disable my firewall and anti-virus who didn't work, I turned their back on immediately.

  2) press Ctrl-Shift-Enter keyboard shortcut to run a command as administrator prompt.  Allow the elevation.

  Type route delete 0.0.0.0 press ENTER.

  Type ipconfig/flushdns press enter

  Restart your computer.

  (3) the internet protocol version 6 clear, disable and enable the thing

  (4) if same Norton software removal tool I had uninstalled the when I got the computer I read that uninstall it by using uninstall windows is not entirely remove it.

  (5) another thing in the command prompt I don't remember exactly what it was, and I can't find the site Web is because I looked so much of.

  (6) I even reset my computer to factory settings and then uninstalled all unnecessary software and trials that come with and used the software again Norton removal tool.

  Does anyone know how to fix this? Any response will be greatly appreciated.

• Local access only under vista on HP Pavilion

  I recently had problems getting a wireless connection with my laptop (Pavilion dv6700) running vista. I had previously run it for 2 years without problem, but after returning from Sweden (where there is still no wireless connection problem), I was often only able to get a local access. Is not on all networks - my University library system works very well, for example, but the personal network of my apartment as well as the network of my parents, as well as a local coffee shop that I had previously connected to fine, only get local access.

  I saw it is a common problem, but have not seen a definitive solution, so I was wondering if someone could help?

• Backup "to a network' grayed out for Windows Vista Home Basic Edition

  Dear Forum:

  Vista Home Basic SP - 2, Win XP Pro Service Pack 3 (signed on as "Administrator" on both machines)

  I'm trying to back up data residing on Vista Home Basic machine on a shared drive on Win XP Pro machine on an ethernet network.  When I run backup and restore Vista HB machine, backup "to a network' option remains greyed out.

  From now on, I can read and write in the public records of the Vista machine from the Win XP Pro machine and I can read and write to disk shared Win XP Pro machine from Vista HB machine.

  I apologize if the question has been discussed previously.  I appreciate all help to address this issue.

  -Kevin N

  I'm sorry, but Windows Vista Basic cannot save to a network location.  It can only back up to a local disk.

  Backup to a network location requires a more advanced version of Windows Vista.

• Impossible to upgrade to windows vista ultimate from vista home Basic using the upgrade disc

  I bought a disc "to upgrade use only" Windows Vista Ultimate at my University and tried to upgrade my current version of Windows (Vista Home Basic).

  At the stage where I had to select the 'Upgrade' or 'Custom' installation option, I noticed that the interface was telling me, 'Upgrade Disabled"with a message that has been along the line"this version of windows is already installed and cannot be upgraded."
  I know that the upgrade disc was probably intended for the upgrade from an earlier version of Windows like XP, but I assumed that because Microsoft also sells discs "Anytime Upgrade" to do exactly what I'm trying to accomplish this I would have had no problem.
  For any help or suggestion that contact would be greatly appreciated.
  Thank you in advance.

  It's all about Service Pack.
  We don't know what you have.

  If Service Packs came pre-installed on the operating system, there is no way to uninstall them.
  You will need to swap the disk to upgrade to a later version that includes the missing Service Pack.

  In this case, your upgrade disk has NO Service Pack installed with it.

  Take it back to the University, if you cannot uninstall SP1 operating system.

• Local access only after the Network Systems Security 2009 malware removed

  I'll try to put all the details that I can here, but my laptop that has the problem cannot connect to the Internet so I won't be able to copy paste n info. Last week, I was struck with the 2009 malware security systems. It was a pain to remove because it stopped all the work programmes and I could not install malware removal software. Finally beat him by renaming the main program folder 2009 for the security of the systems. That he has stopped working when I restarted the laptop and then I was able to install the malware removal software and took remoped.

  Here is the problem. Now that he is gone my network connections wireless and wired no longer work. I get local access only on an unidentified network. I have Windows vista Home premium and use internet with a modem model Cableone cable Motorola Surfboard SB5101.

  Then I called a cable tech support first and they could not help and after all the service works very well on my desktop the same modem and connection. So I called Motorola tech support and they had me do a lot of things for hours (including reinstalling the drivers for the modem) on the phone without effect. Finally, they suggested that I have re-download all ACER Aspirion z9410z drivers and reinstall them. So I did it. Copied to a flash of my desktop drive and reinstalled them. No luck.

  The respectable and sharing Centre, explains that the modem works correctly when you look at the status. But the auto for windows diagnostic tool says to check the IP settings automatically and reset the network card. The two fail to trouble when ran. Here are all the parameters of the network connection.

  Physical address: 00-1A - 66 - AA - 64cB
  Active Yes DHCP
  Autoconfiguration IPV4 address 169.254.195.250
  IPv4 mask subnet 255.255.0.0
  Net Bios on active TCP/IP Yes
  Link-local IPV6 address fe80::1878:12 d 5: a566:c3fa % 36
  Servers of DNS IPv6 fec0:0:0:ffff:1 1%
  FEC0:0:0:FFFF:2 1%
  FEC0:0:0:FFFF:3 1%
                                                  
  IPv4 and 6 are defined automatically detect the IP address and the DNS.

  Hope that gives enough information. There no mater if I use eithernet and USB to connect or wireless. I have the same problems.

  Another thing that can be part of the problem.

  It started after removing the systems security 2009 malware as well.

  When loggin, turned off the laptop, a blue error screen appears. Here are the details generated for it. I'm working on the research of which the question is to be set by the online search.

  Event name BlueScreen
  OS version 6.0.6000.2.0.0.768.3
  local ID 1033
  BCCODE one

  OS version 6_0_6000

  I hope I will get this fix as well.

  Any help will be greatly apprieciated. If more information is required only, let me know and I'll get it.

  Thank you all.

  Hello Oxilas,

  I suggest that you use a friend/co-worker Vista DVD and do a repair installation.

  Repair facility:

  You can reinstall your copy of Vista while keeping your files, settings and programs by performing a repair install or an upgrade on the spot with the following steps: (Note: this still does not resolve all problems, especially if the corruption was caused by a 3rd party program or service, you may need to do a clean install) (if this is not successful.)

  <><><><><><><><><><><><>

  Please make sure that you back up all the important data before you continue. Please visit: methods for your backup files.

  Always make sure that you have the means to reinstall your programs, or by an installation disc or access to the installation files.

  <><><><><><><><><><><><>

  1. Insert the Windows installation disc in your computer's DVD or CD drive. You must start Windows installation while running your existing version of Windows.

  2. on the Install Windows page, click install now.

  3. on the get updates for installation page, we recommend getting the latest updates to help ensure a successful installation and to help protect your computer against security threats. You will need an Internet connection to get the installation updates.

  4. on the Type your product key for activation , we strongly recommend that you type your 25-character product key in order to avoid problems during activation.

  5. on the page Please read the terms of the license , if you accept the license terms, click I accept the terms of the license.

  6. to the which type of installation you want? page, click upgrade to begin the upgrade. You can see a compatibility report.

  7 follow the instructions.

  Note: If your installation disc doesn't include SP1, and you are updated, then you must uninstall it before proceeding with an update install. Start-> Control Panel-> programs-> see installed updates, then select Service Pack for Microsoft Windows and click on Uninstall.

  Note: Tit the following settings is reset by default:

  Its computer system

  Device drivers

  Visual effects

  Windows Mail

  Windows services

  If you notice missing files after the upgrade, look in the following folders:

  C:\Windows.old

  C:\$INPLACE.~TR

  C:\$WINDOWS.~Q

  These files can be eliminated with disk cleanup as "records destroyed by upgrade to Windows".

  Delete files using disk cleanup

• A Vista Home Premium key is usable in Vista Home Basic?

  Hi all

  A friend asked me to reinstall her PC at home that does not have Vista Home Premium installed and a key tag takes precedence over the box - but no recovery on the HARD drive partition

  I only have media for Vista Home Basic used as well as the thought that the key Premium would work with Basic as it's a version below, but it is not.

  Is it possible to activate Basic with a premium key has it or can I use a copy of premium to operate?

  Thank you very much

  "Is there a way to activate Basic with a premium key has it or can I use a copy of premium to operate?

  There is NO way to do it.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Vista Media recovery obtaining and/or using the Vista recovery on your computer Partition to factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

• Windows Vista Home Basic 'local only' access via ADSL router, broudband

  Hello

  I've set up a new router broadband wireless ADSL to connect to my broadband PostOffice.com existing Standard.

  The router is a Belkin F7D1401uk Surf N150 model.

  It is facing up and running and I can use other machines to connect to the internet through it. A netbook running Windos XP SP3 and a mobile phone (Nokia X 6), but my laptop main running Windows Viast Home Basic SP2 (32 bit) do not have wireless internet access.

  It is a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 2727 laptop. If I connect to the new Belkin router using an ethernet cable, I can connect to the internet. But when I unplug the ethernet cable and turn on the WiFi I see a connection to the modem Belkin Wireless, but on an 'unidentified network' and with 'local access' only.

  Here is a copy of what I get when I run "ipconfig/all" at the command prompt:

  Windows IP configuration

  So, it looks to me that use wireless I have an IP address and the default gateway and DNS servers are correct.
  But I do not understand why I "local access" only.

  Can anyone suggest what I can do to get my laptop connected wireless to the internet please?

  Kind regards

  Hello Ttard,

  Thanks for your post.  One of the solutions, I saw about this problem is to go to your system manufacturer's Web site and download / install the latest driver for your computer wireless.

  This thread is very long, but has some great troubleshooting in steps.

  Please let us know if this information helps with your problem.

• unidentified network and local access only

  We have a wireless connection and our router is realtek. However, our network is unidentifyable! He said that it is a public network and gives local access only. When an ethernet cable is plugged into our computer to the router connect to the local network overrides this and we have local and internet connection.

  What is the problem that causes our network to not be recognized? I tried to diagnose and repair and renew the IP address, and none of these work.

  Its very frustrating...

  Thank you
  Christina

  Hello CJ135,

  Please make sure that your computer is configured toe "obtain an IP address automatically".

  Open (run as administrator) command prompt and enter the following commands...

  -netsh winsock reset

  -nbtstat - rr

  -netsh int ipv4 reset

  Restart you computer *.

  Method 2

  If you would please check that you have installed SP1 you Vista computer and on the XP computer you have installed SP3?  So that you can make networking 2 computers successfully, they must be on the latest Service packs.  Just click Start and right click on computer and go to properties.  This will tell you what Service Pack you are running.  While windows are open.  would you please check the name of working group on both computers.  It is imperative that all the computers on your network are on the same workgroup.  For example, Vista default workgroup is labeled "Task force" and working XP Group is labeled "MSHOME".  So that both computers to interface with success, the workgroup name must be the same.  In addition, please make sure that 'everyone' has full control on the folder and the shared folder.  If you please you would follow with me as best as possible, I'd be very happy.

  Method 3

  If you have a 3rd party software such as Norton or Mcafee security, disable temporarily and attempt to connect.

  Please check if you are able to connect to the internet.  If you please you would follow with me as best as possible, I'd be very happy.

  Thank you

• Local access only on wireless network

  My laptop (Toshiba Satellite L350-203 with Vista SP1 HPE) has lost the ability to connect to the internet using my home network. I have McAfee Internet Security and charge of IE8, but both were present before the problem appeared. My home network is now displayed as 'unidentified public network' and the laptop has "local access only". He seems unable to keep the WEP key for the network as it asks everytime I try to connect. I confirmed that the WEP key is correct. There are 3 other computers in the House that connect without a problem, so I guess that the router is not the source of the anomaly. I tried accessing another network to another place (with any necessary safety information) but get the same result, so that other computers can connect successfully. I am able to access the internet via an account mobile broadband (using a "dongle"), but I added this account after the problem appeared, so once I don't suspect it as being the culprit. Diagnosis in the "network and sharing Center" routines are unable to solve the problem, so any help is most welcome.

  Roy Mac

  Hello Roy Mac,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

  You receive an error or the error codes when you try to connect?  You're obviously network savy upward so if something seems repetitive please ignore, you tried to delete the location and replace?   Is there any software for the high account mobile broadband that could changed settings?  Are you able to connect to the router with an ethernet cable access to the internet without problem?

  A wireless network uses authentication and encryption to help stay secure. Authentication controls access to the wireless network. Encryption helps to ensure that malicious users cannot determine the contents of wireless data frames.  Windows Vista includes a new wireless network configuration setting. The new setting indicates whether a wireless network is broadcast or not broadcast. You can also use the new configuration setting that a Windows Vista wireless client connects to a non-broadcast network.

  I've added two links below one for Microsoft and one for the installation of networks and networks the Toshiba site.  Please let us know status.   Thank you!

  The software that you used with Windows XP to connect to wireless networks is not compatible with Windows Vista. Alternatively, you can use Windows Vista to configure wireless networks.

  To connect to a wireless network in Windows Vista, follow these steps:

  1. click on Start

  Collapse this includes this image

  , then click on connection to.

  2. click on the wireless network you want to connect, and then click connect.

  Note During the connection process, you may be prompted for a key WEP Wired Equivalent Privacy (). If you do not have this key, contact the network administrator to help wireless.

• Vista connects to my router, but for local access only.

  I am running windows home edition vista 32 bit on my laptop and until today I had no problems with my internet connection.  I've updated my norton 360 today and had no problems until I rebooted a few hours later.  I can connect to my router but it gives me local access only.  My Linux Ubuntu 10.4 and Mac OS X system is running to the same router with no problems.

  What can I do to connect my Vista laptop to internet?

  So I got on my windows to try what you say and guess what. -_ - (indifferent face) my vista decided to take my wireless and give me access to the internet after most of the month.  I don't know what happened.  I didn't have anything new in the last three days... It's fixed now, but I still don't know what it does break.  Any ideas as what caused it?
