Windows 7 and DSL Modem lock up

This problem has been ongoing for the last 6 weeks, before the system has worked well for 2 years.

I have READ of border, I have 2 computers wireless to the router configuration. If the laptop is connected directly to the router, it works fine, it's just the wireless portion that no longer works. In collaboration with the border, we tried 3 different routers, change channels and other settings without help.

I'm at the point of tests that the problem seems to be with my office w/w7. If I leave my computer turned off during the night, the next morning the DSL is online and working with the laptop. (It has an internet connection). Start the office and everything works well, especially for everyday. Reverse the process, turn off the laptop and leave the office on it all night, the next morning, the DSL should be reset as he turned off the wireless part.

Still working with Frontier, one of the technicians mentioned support a problem with windows 7 filling the buffers DSL and not flushing flushing them, problems disappear in DSL is the power to bike.

Yet once, this configuration has worked for 2 years with a few resets modem. Also, I tried a Netgear N300 Wireless Router with the same results. I'm suspecting a Windows update 6 to 7 weeks, which may have started the problem, but that is only a guess.

Good ideas out there?

It was necessary to call Dell and reload the drivers wireless on the PC.

  • Windows SteadyState and MSE for locked user? Locked user _save files on the desktop? Add the locked user language

    I use Microsoft Windows XP SP3 and Microsoft Security Essentials.

    I did 2 locked users:

    1 locked with custom Restrictions user running Internet Explorer and other Internet browsers, write and draw and nothing much and is welcomed by right clicking on the program icon only run under other Creditentials.

    2 power User, made from MMC with Chater way to have more power that any user who can not only surf the Internet, but also play games online, and this user is also locked.

    My question is: how to make 1. User has locked protected with Microsoft Security Essentials, cause seems MSE is not protect this account, and I can't be sure because of the locked account cannot see even if it is protected, I put MSE on startup but that does not put MSE icon on the taskbar. If it is not protected is not a good cause for the idea that the user navigates Net.

    Another thing I want to do:

    For both locked users able to save files to the desktop and I have it unchecked in Windows SteadyState, but when I connect them and when I log into files are not saved on their desktop computers. So what is the point of selection/deslecting in sign of Restriction if the files went once they logout?

    I wanted to do administrator can retrieve files from their office soon logs in.

    Is - it possible and keep them locked?

    One last thing - since English isn't the only language to be used on 1 locked user account

    How can I put language so that the user can switch between EN and another language

    Thank you for your replies,

    Hi Jade000,

  • Best to use with Windows 7 and AT & T DSL modem

    I have a Windows 7 computer and am also having implemented for AT & T internet DSL soon. I want to have a combined modem/router and I'm having a hard time finding anything that is compatible with Windows 7. Any suggestions?

    I wish that the modem/router works really well, thank you.

    I have an AT & T provided Motorola 2210 modem for a DSL connection, I at a different location. In this case, I do the configuration of the modem to the PPPoE connection and can connect to a computer using a wired Ethernet connection. The Motorola 2210 acts as a router and recovering a DHCP address. That works very well for a computer.

    https://SkyDrive.live.com/?CID=25ab668da65c8fbe&ID=25AB668DA65C8FBE%21118#CID=25AB668DA65C8FBE&ID=25AB668DA65C8FBE%21308

    If you use a router make sure you put the DSL modem into a bridge or go through fashion and have the router handle the PPPoE connection. Here is how I have the Motorola 2210 configured in this scenario.

    For routers that are compatible with Windows 7, see this list of Microsoft, although Jack pointed out, any router should work.

    Personally I use an older ZyXEL NBG334W router with two machines Wireless Windows 7, IE. a desktop and a laptop, plus a wireless HP AiO printer and an iPod Touch.

  • I use to manage my DSL modem via an ip address. When I enter FF8 I wonder where to save the file. Why and how can I prevent the FF8 to do this?

    I use to manage my DSL modem via an ip address. When I enter FF8 I wonder where to save the file. Why and how can I prevent the FF8 to do this?

    And now, whenever I'm in an ip address that I wonder if I want to download the file.

    This happens when the modem server does not send the file in text/html, but with a different MIME type.

    I tried adding index.html in the event that the server can send this file as text/html.

    If your DSL modem has a support Web site, then you can try asking it there advice on how to configure the server modem.

  • Satellite U500 - problem with Windows 7 and HSDPA USB modem

    Hello
    My wife recently purchased a Toshiba Satellite U500, that came pre-installed with Windows 7 64-bit.

    A few days later, I bought a modem high-speed HSDPA USB by Alcatel. The problem started immediately that we plugged the modem, that drivers would not install.
    Then I went to the Web of Alcatel site and found the drivers for windows 7 for her. But then we hit another road block since now the drivers are installed and it does not detect the modem, but whenever we try to connect to the internet, screen flickers at the connection for a moment and then disconnects again.

    I found cela a lil strange so I tried to connect using my own pc which has a 32-bit Windows 7 and it works fine there.
    It is the same for a machine that still had Windows XP. Makes me think its something to do with 64-bit Windows 7 itself. Could someone help please?

    Thank you and best regards.

    I don't think that someone here can help you with this problem. You will be very happy if someone on this forum has exactly the same model of laptop including same USB modem.

    In my opinion, you have two options: either you can clarify this point with the support of Alcatel (they have enough experience with own products) or with people from the nearest Toshiba service provider service.

    Have you tried to test the features with the Win7 32-bit version?

  • How to use Windows Fax and Scan if a modem has not been built in my PC?

    Original title: fax and scan Windows

    Why bother to preload a tower PC with windows fax and analyze if the PC has a modem and in fact does not even a wireless receiver.  When an ordinary user like me go buy the adapter wireless and go buy the fax modem, it's like going to a car dealer and make them ask ' you want this car with tires and wheels, or even that it is? »


    So when you go to Best Buy and Staples to find a fax modem for this PC HP who did not, and what they have is a Zoom modem that works work, WHAT ARE SUPPOSES to DO THEN?

    It is hardware problem, not an operating system. Windows does its part by providing the software needed to complete the job.

  • My dell Inspiron 1150 windows xp password son has locked and the screen will not change, we do not know the password or have we not the reset disk, how can connect to reset password

    My dell Inspiron 1150 windows xp password son has locked and the screen displays the dell logo and says that I need the master password or administrator, my son can't remember and we do not have the reset disk, is it possible to get and reset the password or enter the system

    If you are using XP Home Edition, the built-in Administrator account probably doesn't have a defined password. You can start in safe mode, where this account will be selectable when connecting. It allows to connect and change the password of your normal connection.

    To start in safe mode, keep hitting F8 twice a second after turning on the PC until you get the start menu where safe mode is selectable by the up/down arrow keys, and then press ENTER.

    If you are using XP Professional, try to connect using the built-in Administrator account. You don't need to do it in safe mode (although you can if you wish). If your normal login screen is a display of the user symbol and hit ctrl-alt-del twice to get to login to text entry. Type administrator as the user name and try a blank password.

  • After I downloaded beta Security Essentials, my computer say suddenly that he was not a genuine copy of Windows running and locked up.

    original title: the customer service is horrible

    After I downloaded beta Security Essentials, my computer say suddenly that he was not a genuine copy of Windows running and locked up.

    I called last night and got a foreign person has attempted to resolve the issues and could not, so he told me that I had to call back after 06:00 to speak to someone in the United States.
    So I called back today at 06:00 and got one of those who are running around things voice control that didn't fix my problem at all. After much effort, I got a live person. Again, it was a foreign person (why make me wait all night and get up early to call?!?!)
    This woman told me to restart. I told her that I had rebooted about 10 times since the day before and each time he took forever to load back up the box that tells me that I need to activate windows. She has reiterated, "I ask you to restart." I knew he wouldn't do ANYTHING, but I did and after the session it forever (as I told him it would be) she told me that I had to remind once I got up the box again. I called after that I got the box AND HAD TO START OVER again ONCE with someone new. Of course, she was trying to pass me to someone else.
    Of course, after all this trouble, no MS sells a product key for Vista, it is abandoned. So I need to go buy Windows 7 and she told me that I'll LOSE EVERYTHING when I install it - all my documents and family photos are gone forever. Why not take my money and sell me a product key instead of let me in trouble?
    The worst ever undertaken. Of course, MS doesn't care because they have a monopoly.

    You should not need to buy anything except the recovery disc for your machine (if the built-in recovery partition does not work), unless you really need Win 7 for some reason any.

    That being said - the COA sticker on your machine is readable? If Yes, then you should have no problem with a Windows 7 upgrade version - but you will need to either use activation by phone, or installation methods described here...

  • Has anyone seen a fax USB modem that works with Windows Fax and Scan?

    So far I'm 0 for 2.  PC Fax modems seem to be a lost art.  A few months ago, I tried a USB fax modem and tested the receipt of the fax.  The modem answers the phone, the fax sender starts the transmission and... nothing happens.  Eventually, the sender times out with an error.   Same computer, same Windows Fax and Scan software, with an old modem connected to a serial port, all works well.  Modem manufacturer was not able to help.

    And now the same problem with another PC, the modem is different, different situation.  This time I don't have an easy fallback to a serial port.

    And that leads to my question - no matter that matter where in fact seen a fax-modem USB in the field send and receive faxes using Windows Fax and Scan on Windows 7, and if yes, what was the make and model?

    Thank you

    -Greg Scott

    Hello Greg,.

    Thanks for the quick response.

    You can view the reviews of the product in the manufacturer's Web site and see if that helps.

    Also for the Windows Fax and Scan, when your PC or computer would be equipped with a fax modem (or connected to a fax server), it can send and receive documents such as a standalone device. Windows Fax and Scan even includes a handy tool for the design of custom cover pages.

    Also refer to:

  • ISAM speed application issues since update to windows machines 7 (the opportunistic locking and SMB)

    I have a client system that runs an ISAM application, which worked OK on the SBS 2011 machine and windows XP SP3 machines

    The client has since upgraded its workstation to windows 7 x 64 workstations and ISAM application provider recommends that disable us opportunistic locking and also SMB v2 (e.g. force the workstation to communicate via SMB v1)

    We followed the steps described in the various sections of Microsoft KB (2696547 & 296264), and as a result still having very slow network performance.

    Then we found another reference external from the Microsoft site on disabling SMB digital signing, due to the use of SMB v1, and how that can sort out the problem with the speed of network problems.

    The customer had it since and it has improved performance, but it's still not at the same speed, as it was on Windows XP clients.

    is there a way to force windows 7 and SBS 2011 to use SMB 1 protocol and completely disable SMB 2, or we should create a new Member Server to use this ISAM application for sharing files.

    the application is integrated in the line of business customers to change with a huge expense, but the seller request said that intend it to upgrade applications to use some form of plan of database in the future, but it is at least 12 to 18 months away.

    Hello Paul,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you have issues with Windows 7 and SBS 2011 uses SMB 1 protocols and completely disable SMB 2. So I would advice to follow the link below to post your query in the TechNet forums, because they have more expertise on this issue.
