wireless connection (WRT300N) to the wired router (BEFSR41)

itself...  I have nice small router 4 ports and a WRT300N that I attach to the router.  Looks like it should be 'easy' but it is not just plug n play.  I'm not an expert... probably the WRT300N must be differently configured when it is connected to a router if it was connected to the cable modem.

Help is greatly appreciated.  Even if it's just a pointer to info - I don't mind doing my homework, but can't find anything about it in any documentation that I ran across.

BTW, we have a good reason to not simply use the router without wire, so no need to think that, thanks...

  • I need this laptop wireless connection to my office wired printer. How

    I want to this laptop wireless connection to my office wired printer. How can I do that. I tried to do the thing of the shared printer, but my office is old and uses windows xp, and of course, this laptop uses windows 7. My printer is an epson stylus photo r320. I want to have my wife's cell phone to also be able to access the printer. I connect to the internet via a cable comcast and have a linksys N Router e2500. I want to do this as cheaply and simply as possible. Thank you

    Hello:

    First you must enable sharing of files and printers in Windows XP. During this process, you need to change the name of your to WORKGROUP MSHOME workgroup to match the workgroup name in Windows 7.

    You should also turn on file sharing and printers in Windows 7, and turn off password protected sharing.

    When you have done all that, click View workgroup computers on the XP PC. You should see the two PC listed.

    With the laptop to Windows 7, you should see the printer connected to your computer listed with the desktop computer (you may need to click on see the whole map when you open the network and sharing Center). Click on the printer and click on connect. I hope that the printer is capable of Windows 7. If it isn't, it will give you an error that it cannot find an appropriate driver or another error.

  • Installed wireless Belkin, unable to see network, get error windows cannot configure this wireless connection and starting the WZC abuse

    Hello

    I have a belkin wireless router that worked on my primary computer and a portable computer for years.

    Recently, I moved my main computer and now it dosnt seem to work. Belkin is installed but when I ask to see available networks, it says that windows cannot configure this wireless connection and starting the WZC abuse. Belkin still works fine on my laptop so I know no there is not a problem here. Can someone help me please? I tried to type in %SystemRoot%\system32\services.mcs\s as with a question of people, but all I get is windows can't find this.

    Any ideas please?

    Thank you

    * original title - Help... problem with belkin wireless *.

    Let's see if I can cut through it.

    You wrote:

    Click the Wireless Networks (see this picture) - I did

    Is the box 'Use Windows to configure my wireless network' checked or unchecked? There is no such box.

    I connect using - he says belkin. another box saying this connection uses the following items. then underneath there are 3 tabs - install, uninstall and properties. If I press on properties it says name provider and in this box, it says windows index.

    It seems that you don't have not clicked the "Wireless networks" tab, after you open the properties of your wireless adapter.  From your description, you look at the 'Général' tab: click HERE to see the "Général" tab Click HERE to see the 'Wireless Networks' tab.

    There are 5 columns: name, description, status, startup type and log as.  The values for the last 3 columns should be started, automatic and Local System - on my screen there are 4 tabs at the top - general, connect you, recovery and dependency.

    You skipped a step... 5 columns are in the 'Services' window initial... you arrive at "4 tabs at the top", AFTER you double-click the Wireless Auto Configuration.

    Status of the service which includes 4 boxes. stop suspend and resume. the button highlighted in the start menu

    Just to the right of the expression "Service status", you should see a Word.  On your system, this word probably is "stopped."  The 4 buttons (boxes) are how to control the service.  Because you said that the highlighted button is 'start' which means that the service is currently stopped, and you will need to click on this button "start" to start.

    I strongly suspect that you had used the Belkin utility to control your adapter - and now, you also started WZC.  As I wrote above, you can have both running at the same time.

    When you click the icon of your "Belkin", do you have a screen that looks like this: http://www.wi-fiplanet.com/img/2006/belkinn1/08.jpg

    If so, you should return to the utility Services and 'Stop' the automatic configuration service.  If you want to use WZC instead of the Belkin utility, see http://en-us-support.belkin.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/40/related/1

    I'm not familiar with the Belkin Wireless networking utility, but many wifi manufacturer utilities can be used to turn your wifi on and off, then maybe your was off (the adapter on your computer - not the router).  If you identify the model of the card you have in your main computer, I'll see if I can find the manual on the Belkin website and maybe give you a little more information.

    Hello

    Old laptops use to come with very little memory.  Since then, software exceed the amount of memory installed

    Check the amount of memory you have and see if you can upgrade.

    You can find and expanded manual on Dell' support for the laptop.

    Regarding the wireless.

    It is possible that the wireless card is not operational and need to reinstall drivers.

    Maybe this can help.

    Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_dm.jpg

    If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

    Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_connection_tcp.jpg

    Make sure that if there is Wireless Utility a utility vendor is not running with the native Windows wireless utility.

    Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.

    Above everything is OK and it connects to the wireless router. Log in from any computer which is, or can be connected to the router with a wire wireless, disable wireless security and try to connect with no. wireless security.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300-1EA - wireless connection, drop all the time

    Hi, I have a problem with my wireless connection fall all the time on my Satellite Pro A300 1EA.

    It happened earlier, but I've fiddled about a little with change of drivers and the removal of the connection settings for the registry and it then worked fine for months, until yesterday.

    There were several updates for Windows installed yesterday, but none of them have been updated driver for the wireless card, and they don't look like they should cause problems. The fact that the problem happened before makes me think that the updates can be anything to do with it.

    I use the * Intel PRO/Wireless 3945/4965/5100/5300 * for Vista 32 - bit version 12.2.0.11.3 drivers from the Toshiba download page.

    Other computers on the same access point have no problem, so I think it is specific to this laptop. The connection speed is normally 6 Mbps, but I cannot even check e-mail now without the abandonment of the connection.

    Laptop will be thrown against a wall soon if no one can help you.

    Thanks in advance.

    Edit: I've already made sure power settings are at maximum to the WLAN card, even if on battery, or what power management.

    Hello

    Have you tried to use the Windows System Restore feature? After that your WLAN should work fine again.

    In addition, I can recommend the latest WLAN driver in the Intel page, it s version 12.4.xxxx. I installed the driver on my Qosmio laptop and don t have any problems with it: [www.intel.com].

  • Wireless connection dropping on the Satellite C660-195

    Hello

    I recently bought a new Toshiba Satellite C660-195.
    However, I have problems with the wireless connection. When I bought the laptop, it was full of all the annoying and resource hungry programs Toshiba install there. I have reinstalled Windows on the laptop, just install the drivers and software, I wanted and needed. I have problems with the wireless to stay connected. I can detect wireless networks and connect to that I want to be on, I have to add is a connection at home (I'm not fly: P).

    However, the continuous wireless connection down, becoming 'limited' as it says in system tray icon but then turns back on and the process just keeps spiraling on, on and off.

    The wireless I connect works quite well using Xbox consoles, at first I thought it might be the router but after that a second thought if found the wireless on the Xbox is fine then I surely can't be the case? The laptop is Windows 7 64 bit

    Thank you

  • Wireless connection: adapter with no signal router

    The adapter wireless in my Dell vista basic laptop deoes does not receive signal wireless to my router.

    Hello

    Turn off the router and the Modem - wait 3 minutes and reverse. Restart the computer.

    Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
    Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
    obstacles in the path?

    Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon. Use a wire or download drivers
    on another computer and use removable media to transfer to your system.
     
    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
    manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
    updated drivers.

    I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
    are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.
