Windows could not detect a dial-up modem

Win 7 trying to get the dial modem to work.  When you try to set up a connection from the network and sharing Center numbering, I have 'Windows could not detect a dial-up modem.

Modem is properly installed in the Device Manager and power light is on.  I know that the modem works because I tested it on a backup system.

My research of troubleshooting led me to check Remote Access Connection Manager, which does not start and causes error 1068.

Hello

I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

Method 1:

Disable the security/firewall software and check if it helps.

Disable security software: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Disable-antivirus-software

Warning: If you need to temporarily disable the security software, you should reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

Enable or disable the Windows Firewall:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
Note: Please make sure that you enable the antivirus software after the test to keep your computer protected.

Method 2:

Try to activate the Remote Access Connection Manager dependency services and check if it helps.

Follow the steps to enable the Remote Access Connection Manager dependency services:

a. Click Start, type services.msc in the search box and press ENTER.

(b) in the services window search for addiction services:

Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol Services

Telephony

Internet connection sharing

Remote Access Auto Connection Manager

Routing and remote access

c. right click each service one by one and start the services.

d. make sure that the problem is solved.

Also read the following article from Microsoft and check if it helps.

    Recently, I noticed a triangle appearing little attention with my network icon in the taskbar. When I right click and solve problems, it comes with this message.

  • Internet connection issues "Limited or no connectivity." and "windows could not find a certificate to log on the network.

    I'm so unable to connect to the internet?

    Hello.

    I'm so unable to connect to the internet.

    Since I've renamed our WiFi network and add a WEP key, I have problems with wireless connection on my
    Windows XP computer desktop, which is a Dell Dimension 4700.

    The questions that I get connection are...

    "windows could not find a certificate to log on the network.

    "Limited or no connectivity."

    I did all the solutions I could try to fix the connection problem!

    1. once I received the message "limited or no connectivity", I click with the right button on the connection and click on repair. It is not always connect for me and I got the "limited or no connectivity message.»

    2. then, I disabled the network connection and then enabled. That no longer works.

    3. I tried to withdraw from the ordered list of connections, and it still doesn't work.

    4. I checked the driver manager, and initially the Ethernet driver was outdated and missing of its pilot. He had a yellow question mark with a black sign and yellow with an exclamation mark inside.

    5. I used DriverZone, downloaded the driver, installed and rebooted the computer after the installation of the it. Apparently, it worked. But I could not always connect.

    6 I have ensured that I entered the correct WEP key, and then adjust the settings correctly. I did it like 10 times in a row and would not always connect.

    7. I tried to go to the command prompt and typed in IP Config/All and that's what I mean.

    Windows IP configuration
    Node type: unknown
    Active IP routing: no
    WINS proxy enabled: no
    ETHERNET connection to the Local network card
    State of the media: Media disconnected
    Description: Intel PRO/100 VE Network Connection
    Ethernet card 2 wireless network connection:
    Suffix the connection-specific DNS: (EMPTY)

    8. after that, I typed the command: ipconfig/release
    and then I got this error...

    No operations can be performed on the connection to the local network, although it has its media disconnected.

    9. after that, I tried Googling for some solutions, and the solutions I found were not any use.
    A solution was

    10. opening of Services...
    Start | Run | Type: services.msc | Click OK |
    Scroll down to and double-click Client DNS | Set to automatic on startup
    type |
    Click apply | Click the Start button | When it starts, click OK
    Do the same for the DHCP Client.
    Do the same for the remote procedure call (RPC).

    and it still doesn't work.

    11. when I look in the menu network connections, I see my connection with a lock on the side, with a red X under the lock and key. In the description, I see not connected, protected by a firewall. How could I remove the internet connection firewall? I disabled the firewall and that did not work.

    12. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the network card and who does not work either.

    It is not the network itself that is the problem.  It is not the modem or the cable. There are no disconnected son or something like that. We have other computers in the House and the internet works fine on other computers. As I said, since I renamed our WiFi network and added a WEP password, I had problems with connecting to my Windows XP computer.

    My computer has updates that must be installed as well. Updates would fix the problem? I just need to have internet.

    What should I do? Thank you for your time.

    Sincerely,

    Justin

  • Can not solve the problem "Windows could not find a certificate...". ».

    I read through all the posts related to "Windows could not find a certificate...". "but still failed to get a solution for my problem.

    Well, I have no problem with the installation of this modem to router Wireless G ADSL2 + for both my notebooks of Vista, they work perfectly.

    However, I have difficulties with 2 other computers that move on the XP version. This version XP 2 PCs sometimes show the connection of the signal very strong to my network and sometimes simply shows "Windows could not find a certicate to connect to the network.

    Even when it indicates strong signal to my network connection, I can still surf the internet/LAN.  Where is the problem?

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks for the reply.

    Nonetheless, I have chosen the way easier and solved the problem.

    Connect the network cables for these 2 not for PC XP update and they work just as perfect as my other 2 portable VISTA wireless.

  • Windows could not get a list of devices from Windows Update. Try again later

    Original title: Windows 7 list printers cannot be updated
    I installed a windows 32 bit 7 OS several weeks ago on my workstation Futitsu-Siemens and followed the instructions on the HP Wizard to try to install the HP Deskjet 990c printer driver for my HP 6122 printer. According to the HP Wizard, the only way to do is to update the list of printers by clicking on the "Windows Update" button in the dialog "add a printer".  I clicked on this button several dozen times in recent weeks, and every time I get the message "Windows could not get a list of devices from Windows Update. Try again later.

    I installed a windows 32 bit 7 BONES of several months on my HP laptop and the printer list updated without a hitch to include many more HP printers that are on my computer Futitsu-Siemens including HP 990c.

    What should I do?

    Here's what I found my system which is an Z210 64 HP running windows7. I just updated my Bios to v1.35

    What I did to get the update to work once and what I have to do each time to add another printer by using the Update window.

    1. open (Ctrl-Alt-Del) Task Manager

    2. click on tab of abuse, then Services button (bottom-right)

    3. under the name to find "Windows Update".

    4. right click "Windows Update" and select stop. do not close

    7. go back to served, right click on "Windows Update", and then select start

    Now the "Windows Update" button should work. For me I have to do every time I have to install a printer that requires me to use windows update

  • "Windows could not get a list of devices from windows update"

    I've been looking for a solution for several weeks now. Many people seem to have the same problem. But no one has yet been able to solve the problem.

    First of all, let me clarify the problem explicitly:

    In the Add Printer Wizard: "Windows could not get a list of devices from windows update"

    Specifically, the problem is that Windows Update *broken* in the Add Printer Wizard. (Windows Update, otherwise works fine. But not in the Add Printer Wizard.)

    Find a workaround to add the printer, which mostly does not work what I have read, would be only to solve the secondary problem of the addition of this printer. Except, it would not solve the main problem which is Windows Update *broken* in the Add Printer Wizard.

    Details:

    I have been setting up three new PC running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I had to add an old LaserJet 5if connected to a former print server. I created the IP Standard port, then clicked on the "Windows Update" button to update the list of printers. It worked on the first perfectly, as it has in the past with other computers to this place. Then I started to work on the other two at the same time. I'm lazy and started to perform several tasks such as installation of MS Office, Security Essentials (less than 10 units at this office, BTW), etc. while the Add Printer Wizard was updating the list of devices. One of these things, I can't remember which, required a reboot.

    And that is where I am certain that things broke. Restart has occurred while the two computers are in the middle of the list of loading from Windows Update System. I not interrupted the first PC. But the other two were interrupted and now they can't get a current list of Windows Update.

    I tried the FixIt tool at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 . He says he detects a problem and claims to have fixed. Except, it isn't - little matter how many times I run.

    Ideally, the FixIt tool above must be updated or a new tool must be created by Microsoft to resolve this particular problem. Type of the error in any search engine, and you will see this question from several years back. It's happens often enough to justify the creation of Microsoft or update a FixIt tool.

    Any thoughts would be helpful.

    I have exactly and that no ONE reads what you say or what other people say everywhere. Only the upgrade Assistant printer does not... The update of the Printer Wizard do not work. Windows Update works fine.

    Ronday,
    You are right that if few people read what they respond to these forums. That's the kind of non-response, I found everywhere on the Internet about this issue. (The value of the community is sometimes over-rated, if you ask me). Apparently, using characters fat is not enough to focus on the fact that the issue is not with the printer compatibility since, as I said clearly A) this printer has installed fine several times in the past with the same OS and in the same office and B) that I clearly THE issue is that updated the list of devices , in the Printer Wizard, *Do NOT*!  
    However, I came across a suggestion on another site. I haven't had the chance to try it at the location of this particular customer - I'll do it later this month. Here is the link to the suggestion for you to try as well. Scroll to the end to ignore any non-response:

    Hi, most likely caused by one installation failed (not the Wizard), you need to do a bit of detective work, lets first try the easy solution: -.
    1. go to start, run and type regedit.
    2. go to the registry editor for
    HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\current version\installer\inprogress.
    3. click the inprogress key and note the name of the file contained on the
    right to databasepath (must be .msi extension).
    4 rename inprogress oldinprogress.
    5. close the registry editor.
    6. open my computer.
    7. navigate to C:\Windows\Installer (Installer file is hidden by)
    par_defaut, views folder check "show files and folders" also uncheck "Hide protected system files", do not forget to cancel it when you're done)) and rename the file noted in step 3.
    8 restart the computer and try the installation again.

    If it works, then Michel deserves all the accessories. At least he or she tries to solve the real problem.
  • Windows could not search for new updates after the troubleshooting and repair of updates

    My computer Windows 8 began to refuse to install windows updates.  I've been through the troubleshooting steps in Help and online.

    Now, what I mean is "Windows could not search for new updates", code 80073712.

    Troubleshooting Windows Update tool, solve problems as an administrator, gives:

    Error Windows Update Database that can be detected 0 x 80073712... Fixed.

    Windows Update components and need to be repaired... Fixed.

    I'm skeptical about the 'Fixed' part, because if you run it again... he finds and it 'fixed' the same problem.

    DISM.exe/online/Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and /scanhealth the two report error 14098: component store has been corrupted.

    Feel free to ask me questions to debug it, I'm fairly technical...

    Hello

  • "Setup could not detect all the printers.

    I've recently set up a new computer and the network.  The host computer is running Vista.  I have connected a Deskjet 6940 via an ethernet cable into the Linksys router and can print from the host computer.

    I have a laptop which is under XP Pro, and who has a connection with the network.  I downloaded the driver from HP on the laptop to try to connect with the 6940, but during the install process, I get the message "Printer not found - Setup could not detect all the printers on the network."

    Firewalls on both computers is disabled.

    When I type the IP address in the address of the host computer or on the portable bar, I page of the printer, including its SSID.

    I tried to type the IP address in the field suitable for the installation of HP on the portable routine, however and always got the "printer not found."

    Ideas?  TIA
