wireless network connection fails to connect to internet-local only connection

too much time invested to leave now... Here is the configuration:

HP dv2500 presario with home premium Vista 64, SP2... can connect to the internet via ethernet, wireless local = only... Network router is Netgear WNR3500L with 5 machines to sp3 of xp connected without problem.

Been to the grinder on this one-darn google redirect everything began, had to shut down the network, reset the router, safe & bring systems up to one at a time running 3 to 6 programs of malware to clean each box...

So I've updated driver, roll back driver, many forums, tried too many things with the same result... Performed system updates to restore, all - same result... Last step was MS support article that I followed step by step without resolution, so I hit the button... got support with regard to the identification number of the product, system would detect not, therefore entered manually & get a message no valid... I can go for $ 49, but just too stubborn to throw good money after bad at this point... Yes - I have removed the connection, hardware, resettled, updated, restart, stood on his head and blew bubbles outta my ass and still just get a local connection... This message is sent to a mobile solid XP pro sp3 5 yr old rock... SEND HELP PLEASE!

You must set up a wireless internet connection in the network as well as the connection sharing normal LAN wireless and connect to it as well as the local connection.  If you don't do this, you will not have an internet connection.  You need both.  You must also enable some features in the main area sharing network to access the internet - they are quite well defined.  If I were you, I remove all wireless Vista machine and set up from scratch.  I would like to even re - install the wireless network card drivers /, firmware or software just to be safe.

I hope this helps.

    Guys, I'm really hitting my head against the wall on this one, and I would be VERY happy for any help through this. Thank you!

  • I lose the internet connection randomly but never lose my wireless network connection.

    I use a hp pavilion dv9500 with 64-bit vista sp2 and built in a wireless adapter that will fall randomly my internet wireless connection, but maintains my wireless network connection with an excellent signal strength.

    My (non-permanent) fixed
    I know how to reconnect to the internet, but it forces me to diagnose a repair my connection. It then displays "cannot connect to Server primary dns (75.75.75.75)"after which it gives "things to try" who never work and a button 'Reset the ip address' that I click. " repair bar will fill up to half way and go to a new screen solution that shows more 'solutions' and a "reset wireless adapter" button which I click. the remedy bar will fill and then display windows can not solve the problem and go for help. I then manually disconnect from the wireless network and my computer will automatically reconnect to the network and to the internet. It takes about five minutes to fix, but it happens so often that it is getting boring. The process will not work if I only to reset the ip address and then disconnect from the network, only to reset the wireless adapter and then disconnect, or just disconnect from the network and reconnect. I have to reset the ip address and the wireless adapter and then disconnect from the network.

    The internet connection will tend to disconnect when I watch a lot of youtube videos, when I download large files like a game on steam, or just just randomly when I use it. I'll use it for a long time and he can't let it go, but sometimes it will go down to ten minutes after I had just reconnected in a drop-down list. It happens randomly without another warning that download time will increase from 2 mb to 50 k in two seconds all about or stop the loading of a youtube video when I look at it.
    I searched everywhere for an answer, but it's as if it were a new problem for all humanity or just im the only person who does not know how to solve this problem, because there are no forums or FAQ not related to my problem. It is not so much a serious problem such as an irritating problem that appears at inconvenient times or when I just want to relax and watch a video. It takes some time to reconnect and even though I know how it would be better if my connection would just stay connected to the internet at any time.
    I have no idea what the problem could be that whenever I have find I never get related problems. all advice or solution would be great.
    I also share this modem with other three commonly used computers: a wired office and two other laptops that the two are connected wirelessly. both other laptops do not have the same problem as mine. My router is a linksys e3000 wireless router.

    I can't connect to the internet using my wireless network connection. I had made the diagnosis and he stated that "the DHCP is not enabled for the wireless network connection. I had checked the DHCP, but it has been activated!... Someone would give any suggestion for me to solve the problem?

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type services.msc and press enter . Search The Client DHCP and check if it is enabled or disabled. If disabled then turn it on and see if the problem still persists or not.

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type cmd , and press enter . At the command prompt, type ipconfig/all and press ENTER. Now, check the IP address, default gateway, DNS etc. If you find all the information is correct, but you cannot yet access the Internet so if you connect the wireless network is secure or not. To determine the glance to the wireless network icon in the taskbar, then click on it. It will show you the available wireless networks. If there is a "yellow shield" present on the network icon, the network is not guaranteed, if there is no "yellow shield" does while the network is secure. In a secure network, you might have a "network security key. In this case try to disable the 'Network security key' option for this network. To do this:

    Open Control Panel , click network and Internet , click network and sharing Center , click manage wireless networks on the left.

    In the list select the wireless network and do a right click, select Properties, Security disable tab all options that is, in security type do not select no authentication (Open) and to the type of encryption , select none . You can also activate the automatic connection and SSID settings to further enhance connectivity, on the connection tab, click to select the "connect automatically if this network is in range " and "check boxesto connect even if the network is broadcasting his name (SSID) .

    For more information click here and see how you can determine whether a network is secure or not.

    If the problem still persists, then check your firewall settings and make sure that the firewall is not blocking your Internet connection. Some software Antivirus has a built-in firewall and they block by default all unknown connection to the tightening of security.

    Try to restore Windows Firewall default settings. Open Control Panel click on network and Internet , click system and security , click Windows Firewall , click default settings .

  • An error occurred while renewing interface wireless network connection: unable to contact your DHCP server. Request a expires.

    I use an Acer Asspire One with Windows XP. We have wireless through AT & T Uverse. The netbook has an Atheros AR5007EG Ethernet card.

    A number of things have taken place lately: I had not used the Acer for some time and the battery was dead and would not recharge. I could book until when it was plugged, but could not get on the Internet. I found online that the solution to the battery problem was to download a new bios that worked wonderfully and it is now loaded. Recently, our AT & T router died and was replaced. I put the new WEP keys in two other computers, and they connect to the Internet. I can't connect to the Internet with the Acer. I tried ipconfig / renew and get the error message: "an error occurred during renewal of the wireless network connection interface: unable to contact your DHCP server.» Request a expires. No operation can be performed on Local area connection while it has its media disconnected. "On the tab"Choose a wireless network", it shows my network and said"absorbing the network address"but nothing happens. When I do ipconfig I see that there is no IP address.
    I took the computer to Starbucks this morning, ran ipconfig / renew and she acquired the IP address and I was able to connect to the Internet. I brought the computer home and tried and failed to connect. The IP address is back to 0.0.0.0 and the error message appears when I try to renew it.
    I hesitate to make a lot of changes since it was working with a different network.

  • Wireless network connection is not a valid IP configuration / wifi problems

    I recently bought a laptop Asus G74 from Best Buy. It is currently running Windows 7 x 64 home premium. I am away from home on a job to work on a project for my company and during the two weeks have stayed at the same hotel with the same wireless, leaving home for thanksgiving between stays. The first week I spent the unsecured WiFi, download programs and games and play. I left the House, returned and used the wifi day, realized there is an ethernet cable in my computer bag laptop and connected to the hard line for the next day. I went to a colleague of room (a room down), went to look for the WiFi, and the trouble started.

    Diagnostics Windows network tells me that the wireless network connection is a valid IP configuration. I thought it would be something to do with the drivers, so I opened by Device Manager, went through each of my NICs 5 or more and look for the updates of drivers. A couple said they have successfully installed, but nothing has changed my ability to connect. Then I thought about rolling back the drivers, but since I've had the laptop for such a short time (less than 30 days) the option is grayed out. It wouldn't make sense since I could connect the previous week on the same wireless.

    From there, I decided to try a system restore to a point when I was getting into at first hotel. Restarting the laptop and the restore was successful. I tried to log in again and the same problem arises. I downloaded a couple of my favorite, Malwarebytes, and SUPERantispyware tools. Both have nothing.

    So I did some research and digging and scholar on ipconfig (flushdns / release / renew) with an elevated command prompt. I tried these and they told me my media is "disconnected" and cannot be released or renewed. I found this strange since I can see the wifi network. I tried to use the Fn + F2 to toggle the wifi and WIMAX (no idea which is incidentally) with simple ipconfig and media disconnected status does not change. I also read that disabling ipv6 might help, so I did this and still no dice. I restored system again for the 2nd point earlier and it still does not connect.

    Drop-down wifi icon in the bottom right of the screen, after trying to connect to the network unsecured wifi here (BWCamarilloInn), it reads 'Unidentified network' and under it "no internet access. I had different flavors of this message, including "limited access".

    I thought I'd try a cross-check to see if it was not on the end of the hotel. I pulled out my laptop backup enterprise and was able to immediately connect to the wifi, and my colleague from work related to his phone and his netbook. I saw another thread somewhere on a Windows forum that suggests a clean boot. Tried, has not changed anything either.

    Currently I have about 5 different adapters according to the Windows Network Diagnostics: the 1/2 LAN connection and Wireless Network Connection 1/2/3.
    I also have 5 in the drop-down list of the network adapters in the Device Manager.

    Intel Centrino WiMAX 6150
    Intel Centrino Wireless-N 6150
    Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport adapt
    Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport adapt #2
    Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller

    and a separate drop-down list called adapters Intel Centrino WiMAX, with a menu drop down called function Intel® Centrino WiMAX 6150 driver.
    They are all updated when right click and check for driver updates.

    I also looked through the different adapters and checked to see if the ipv4 settings have been defined to automatically detect the IP of/etc.

    The laptop is great and I wouldn't really have to take it back to Best Buy. Other problems seem to be of culture that may be useful to know. Patch of League of Legends sometimes throws me an error "kernel patch pvp.net has stopped working", or just sits on the main projection before it hits the pitcher. Sometimes, it goes past the pitcher and he's here without connect to or start the main game. I heard that this has to do with the network stuff. I am computer literate, but I'm not terrible with networking or internet configuration stuff. If anyone can give me a hand, that would be much appreciated. I'll help you as much as I can. I've also attached the current ipconfig info (I'm connected to the internet via an ethernet to the wall cable, League of legends should therefore be able to launch).

    Thanks in advance.

    Hey, sorry for the slow response. Just got home a few days, and since then, I've been able to connect both the wifi just next door (I'm on the end furthest from the beach with her, but I can still connect) and on my netgear n wireless router. I can also access the router dashboard. Fail to starbucks so just wifi next door was the next best thing. ASUS finally answered after 11 days, saying I should reinstall the wireless driver, which I told them was one of the first things I did. Well. It seems that the hotel wifi and I have no idea why this is the case. I was able to connect to the wifi at the hotel the first week and not the second while they might have changed something. I have no idea. I'm just glad that it connects to other networks, both guaranteed and no guaranteed. I'm just a bit worried that it might happen again in the future but I always wear a hard line in the event of an emergency and a business laptop backup.

    With this new information, should I worry still try to fix anything with the hotel wifi, or do I just leave it as is? Thanks for the support continuous, 100 times better than ASUS right now: P

  • Wireless network connection

    I am an employee of Life Insurance Corporation of India.When I turn on my PC in the office premises, a connection named "dlink" appears in my PC. After the connection (without using any modem or external device) I can browse the internet. How is that possible? The brief description of the connection is the following:

    Hi SANJIT_78,

    ·         The computer is connected to a domain environment?

    ·         Are you facing any performance issue with wireless network connection?

    ·         What operating system is installed on the computer?

    The computer you are using apparently have a wireless network interface installed in it and therefore can detect and connect to any available wireless network. The dlink network is the name of a wireless network available in your area and your computer to connect to this wireless network.

    Wireless networks more private need a password to connect to them and therefore are protected. But the dlink network to which you are connecting is apparently a public wireless network, and it doesn't have a password to connect to it. So which allows any user to connect their devices to this network wireless. Due to this insecure wireless network mode, your computer displays you the message "the information transmitted through this link may be visible to others". If you want to connect to this wireless network, I suggest you first protect your computer with a good program antivirus and firewall.

    To enable the Windows Firewall on your computer, you can check this link:

    How can I turn on or turn off the firewall in Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later versions?

  • I can't print due to the "wireless network connection" doesn't have a valid IP address.

    Cannot print wireless

    I can't print due to the "wireless network connection" doesn't have a valid IP address.  How can I fix this problem myself (an absolute non-techie)?

    Hello

    -Did you change your computer, after which the question began?
    -Check if you are connected to the network?

    The question seems more like a network connection problem. I would like you to do the following.

    Method 1: run the Network Troubleshooter utility and see if the problem persists.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/using-the-network-troubleshooter-in-Windows-7

     
    Method 2: release and renew the IP (Internet Protocol) address and see if the problem persists.

    has. click Start. Type cmd in the search box and press ENTER.
    b. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
    ipconfig/all (there is a space between ipconfig and /)
    The command ipconfig/all command displays for all your network adapters, TCP/IP in Windows settings.
     
    If your IP address of your Local network connection is 0.0.0.0 or 169.x.x.x (where x is a number any), then your computer is not getting an IP address from the router.
    If this is the case, try this:
    ·        enough ipconfig at the command prompt and press ENTER
    ·        ipconfig / renew in the command prompt and press ENTER

    Method 3:

    Note: The steps also apply to Windows 7.

  • Get rid of the current wireless network connection so that I can set up a new connection using the same IP address.

    Here's my problem: I got a new computer and a wireless network connection has been set up and I could get on the internet. My daughter then wanted to try her new computer and somehow his computer is defined as the network and I can no longer connect to the internet via my computer.

  • Problems with wireless USB adapter. Icon missing "Wireless network connection".

    I recently got a laptop HD malfunction cause me to start my PC from 2004. I bought a Belkin N150 Wireless USB adapter to connect to the internet connectivity. During the installation, I do not get a "Wireless network connection" icon I am running Windows XP SP3. I installed the same USB adapter on a computer running Windows XP SP2 and it works fine. I plugged it in my desktop PC and it just doesn't work! Even with my router disconnected I should still be able to see other networks WiFi available in the range (I live in a community of apartment) as he worked on the other computer it elsewhere too. I double checked the drivers, reboot the cable modem, so that appropriate services were activated and still no dice. I have read forums and I'm almost at the point of paying MS for technical support services, but it's really just my last step before I shell out money for professional help. Notice to lovers? =)

    Hello

    Well, at this point, you should make an executive decision.

    If you think that someone will take just guilt because it's comfortable, it is not going to happen.

    If a new card that is known to work does not work, then you can try to re - install Windows.

    One of the differences between computer enthusiasts and regular users is the availability of the material. I have a set of wireless router, network cards, etc. that are known to be good.

    The components are used for the sole purpose of trying them temporarily on the troubled computers to rule out hardware problems.

  • The 'Wireless Network Connection 3' network card is not properly configured to use the IP protocol

    Hi idkmyname

     

    1. What is the exact error message displayed when you try to go online?
    2. do you have updated the network card drivers installed?
    3. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    Method 2:
    You can follow the steps below to check the NIC in Device Manager. I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the NIC drivers and check:

    a. click Startand then click Control Panel.

    b. click system and Maintenance, click Systemand then click on Device Manager.
    Note If Control Panel is in Classic view, double-click System, and then click Device Manager.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.
    Check if you have any exclamation point beside the devices listed. If you have, then there is problem with the card is installed.

    c. in the NIC, expand adapter, right click on the devices listed and then click Uninstall.
    When you are prompted to confirm that you want to remove the device, click OK.

    d. restart the computer.

    After the computer restarts, the drivers will be installed automatically. Check after this procedure if you are able to get access to the network.

     

    If you get all the drivers related errors, you can check if you have the latest drivers updated, installed for the network card. See the help link - below
