• Satellite L650 - unable to connect to the public network (has no valid IP address)

  Hello

  Toshiba satellite L650 laptop computer (with windows 7 64-bit), I bought two days back and I'm unable to connect to the public network. Sometimes, it must be connected to the public network and after a few minutes it disconnects. I get the message "wireless network doesn't have a valid IP configuration him."

  I have visited many forums and did everything, but of no use.

  1. people with disabilities the tcp/ip V6 of the registry.
  2. the DHCP is enabled. With the help of the automatic IP (DHCP)
  3. also tried with a static IP configuration.
  4. uninstalled the antivirus provided with laptop computer (Norton).
  5 disabled the windows firewall.
  6. restored to factory settings.

  I called Toshiba Tech support as well and they have suggested that it may be a problem of H/W but I don't think that so that it can be hardware problem because sometimes he must be connected to the public network. Now I'm left with no option except return the laptop to Toshiba (I'm less interested in this because I know that sending laptop for replacement will be more frustrating).

  Can someone please give some other suggestions for this problem?

  Hey,.

  Can you connect to your home WIFI router correctly?

  If you have problems with the public network connection, you should ask the owner of these networks. Usually, there is always a contact, you can ask if you have any problems with the connection.

  What you can try is updated WLAN driver from Toshiba's official website:

  If it doesn't work, ask the person contact I mentioned.

• RESOLVED - unable to enable IPv6 in Windows 7, so unable to connect to the homegroup - ZoneAlarm was the problem

  My problem is that I can't turn on IPv6 in Windows 7.

  My goal was to set up a homegroup three computers so that I can share a printer that is connected to one of them. They are all running different versions of Windows 7.  A desktop computer has created a homegroup, and a second desktop computer connected successfully to the homegroup and can print using the first computer printer.

  The third computer is a portable computer. When you go to the homegroup settings page, it says that the homegroup is available. But this computer is unable to join when you click on the "join" button. The convenience store said IPv6 must be enabled.

  Option is checked in the IPv6 network card settings. (The install button is also active and uninstall is dimmed. I don't understand why this should be as I have read that you cannot uninstall IPv6, if it makes sense for the uninstallation to be grey, why install would be an option? Confusion between.)

  Here is what seems to be the root of the problem. In the registry settings, in the section IPv6 DisabledComponents is set to 255 (disabled). I change it to 0 (all features enabled), but I can't always connect to the homegroup. I restart the computer and the value 0 is changed back to 255.

  I can't activate IPv6, it isn't surprising that the computer cannot join the homegroup as I read that this function requires IPv6.

  Can any expert from Microsoft give me some advice on how to operate the homegroup?

  Thank you very much.

  I have now found the answer to my problem. This is a setting in the free ZoneAlarm firewall. I will describe the solution in the case of meeting other people that.

  I have the default setting of the version of ZoneAlarm is that it disables IPv6 when it starts. (I don't know if it's the same for all versions).

  Although I tried disabling ZoneAlarm (and my separate anti-virus) so he was trying to set up group residential, just turn it off has no impact on registry settings - DisabledComponents is always set at 255 until you change to 0 and, critically, restart the machine. Then, the parameter 0 (enabled) will come into force. Or so it seems to me as a layman.

  But if you did not disable the automatic startup of ZoneAlarm (like me) then as soon as you restart the computer, ZoneAlarm starts too and resets the 255, new registry entry to disable IPv6. If you can't join a homegroup.

  The solution is to open ZoneAlarm and choose firewall, hand and advanced. Then you will see the option to activate IPv6 networks. When I didn't do the notebook had no problem joined the homegroup.

  I don't know why I have the same problem on the second desktop computer. Maybe it's runnning a later version of ZoneAlarm to allow IPv6 - I haven't checked.

  In any case, I spent hours looking for this solution, so I hope that the description above helps someone else that has a parameter of the problem until a homegroup because of what seems ZoneAlarm made IPv6 settings in the registry.

• HP ENVY 15-k163cl: HP ENVY 15 updated to Windows 10, now unable to connect to the network

  I've recently updated to Windows 10 with my laptop (from Windows 8) and remember, Windows 8 was working fine but now that I've updated for Windows 10, I can't connect to my home network.
  
  When I turn on my laptop, it is not automatically connect to my network and when I try to connect from the network settings, I get an error "Could not connect to this network" and I have to wait at least 30 minutes before it automatically logs. After waiting that it works, but my laptop goes to sleep or goes inactive for awhile, it disconnects again and I have to wait
  
  I connected via hotspot and it worked fine, but all of my other computers laptops HP connects very well and they are 10 Windows as well. Only this laptop is upward, so I guess it's a problem with a new driver.

  Hello:

  The only suggestion I can offer would be to install the latest driver for the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 adapter - 802.11 and see if that helps any.

  The 2nd driver on the list is W10 x 64.

• upgrade to windows 10 and unable to connect to the Netgear router

  After the upgrade to Windows 10, I get a connection limited to the router.  I have tried everything that seems to indicate that I have seen but not solution.  I went back to 8.1 and everything is ok.  Drivers are all to date I can say.  The problem seems to be related to the default gateway or the lack of it.  It is not good to reset the router.  My labtop HP running windows 8.1 works fine but my Dell Inspiron gets only limited access to the router. I need help to solve the end.

  keybaud

  I do not have a Dell, but I'm having a similar problem with the Netgear WNDR4500 v1 router and an ethernet Intel I217-V adapter. 10 Windows does not recognize the router is via the Ethernet connection, but it does not work with a wifi dongle.

  This is to help, adding that I don't expect Dell to solve my problem. :-)

  Hello

  Not sure what help I can give since I know not what system you have, and if it is considered compatible Win10, but here is the link to the driver Windows 10 ethernet Intel 1217 - V cards.  ((NOTE: le lien que je fournis est pour la version 64 bits de Windows 10.))  If you have installed the 32-bit version and then to just change the drop-down list of BONE near the top of this page))

  I would also say that updating the firmware on this router would be your next step.  See if one or both of the Exchange help people.

  If this isn't the case, then remove all your system's ethernet drivers, reboot and see if Windows 10 has all the innate drivers that may work.  Or else let Windows Update search and download a driver.  Who has the strongest chance of finding a compatible driver.

  I hope this helps.

• Printer on Windows 7 PC, unable to connect with the laptop with Vista

  I have a Lexmark 2600 Series printer on a Windows 7 32-bit computer.  I am not able to connect to the printer with Vista laptop for my wife.  I can share files and see the printer.  I try to connect and I get "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Impossible operation completed (error 0x000003eb). "I tried to install locally and change the path without success.  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Hi Zyfot,

  First of all, I would say that you add the printer on the vista computer and check.

  1. open Printers by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, hardware and soundand then click Printers.
  2. click on Add a printer.
  3. in the Add Printer Wizard, select Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer.
  4. in the list of available printers, select the one you want to use, and then click Next. If your computer is connected to a network, only printers listed in Active Directory for your domain are displayed in the list.
  5. If prompted, install the printer driver on your computer. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
  6. follow the steps in the wizard and then click Finish.

  Also, make sure that the print spooler service is running on the windows vista computer.

  A print spooler is the service that temporarily stores the disk printing hard or in memory until the printer is ready to print.
  You must be logged on as administrator to perform these steps.

  1. open Administrative Tools by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type Administrative Tools, and then click Administrative Tools.
  2. double-click on Services. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
  3. right click on the print spooler service, and then click Properties.
  4. under the tab general , next to Startup type, make sure that Automatic is selected.
  5. If the service is not already running, under Service status, click Startand then click OK. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  I hope this helps!

• aftering updated firefox to version 8.0, that the Navigator will sail is no longer to any Web site. An error window appears with "unable to connect to the server (where you point)!

  Using windows XP pro.

  One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, 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 and the plugin-container and the update process.

  Hello

  Here's the situation - I'm setting up a mobile registration system that uses the remote wireless via a router dedicated to the sound system.

  I use the router on the PA system to remotely control my mixer and software only on the cable network.   The wireless network is used to communicate with the internet and send audio files between my workshop and the meeting place during a broadcast so that the engineer can have a production finished execution until the crowd clears, so the band can sell a CD of the show.   There is no use between the two networks and they need to run independently of the other.

  I'm having a problem where network connections will only be activated at any time.   I need to have the wired adapter and adapter wireless running at the same time.

  I'm good on the sound equipment, but know little about networks and computers.  I am open to suggestions or advice.   A procedure step by step on how to do that would be nice (as a network for Dummies!  (LOL).

  I am at a loss to know where to start, so any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  I understand that you get an error message when you try to connect to the Windows store. You have problems with other Web pages having the same error, or are you able to navigate normally?

  With a bit of checking, it seems that it's an unusual problem, but there are several causes. Here are a few pages of various related forums that can help:

• Pavilion 140 550 - t: unable to connect to the windows service

  Not sure if it's the good advice of post, but here goes.

  Just got the HP computer yesterday and installed Norton Security, Malwarebytes, and Windows Live Mail (do not like the version of Mail). Now, when I start it, I get "Unable to connect to the Windows Service" pop up and WLM crashes when I try to open it. What the DEVIL?

  Had the same problem on the one I just replaced. My laptop became the 'Group Policy' error thing, but I think I fixed it.

  Any suggestions? Windows is a joke!

  If it is Norton Security, then it's a firewall as well and firewalls blocking things, it's that they are supposed to do. So demand for three, you said that this is probably the cause.

  But if you do not want to test it, then try the system restore I've mentioned or reload the image origin, then just put in place the email again and see if it works without the other two installed, first to see if it will work with anything else in the picture.
