  • Drops of wireless network connection - windows Vista Restart problem

    Hello

    Recently installed Windows Vista on a new version of a recovered old PC as well as a few new purchases (memory, DVD player, NAS). Everything in place and works very well, but I'm faced with a problem of wireless network. The system works well: internet etc, but will drop the connection to the router wireless without apparent reason, he is followed by repeated reconnection automatic attempts when he will restore a decent connection for a minute or so and then drop again. This continues ad nauseam. The bulk of what a Windows restart will completely solve the problem for an hour or two until it is started.

    The research of the forums etc, I tried so far:
    -Switching of wireless channels
    -Deletion of "turbo" on the router
    -Disable IPv6
    -Checked drivers are updated
    -Check the firmware of the router

    I'm also reasonably sure of the following:
    -There is no interference (I put 'new' PC exactly in the same place as my old and uses exactly the same network card and router)
    -The work of the (PCI) wireless card (available connections always show the router as well as others in the region when connecting).
    -The router does not appear these problems with my PS3

    My details:
    -Windows Vista Home Premim - fully updated
    -Windows Firewall is the only firewall running
    Belkin router - G and complementary wireless card (a good old now a few years but run perfectly in XP)
    -P4HT 3 GHz, 2 GB system
    -Very little software installed to date (software the only thing I can think of Buffalo NAS relevent)

    Anyone with a similar experience? It's driving me crazy!

    See you soon!

    Hello DizzyEgg,

    Thank you for posting.  Transitional issues are most frustrating to resolve.  I think that this problem is with your wireless card.  If your PS3 and other devices are not the problems to give up the connection to your router this supports the hypothesis that the problem is in your wireless NIC.  We have seen that many times on this forum and I personally had the same problem with a wireless card.  The symptoms are identical, will connect for awhile, and then abandons the connection while still showing a strong wireless signal.  You can reconnect manually for a few minutes, and then the connection drops again.  Restart Windows seems to fix the problem than to have the connection after a variable duration.  Unfortunately, the only step in troubleshooting to verify this is to replace the wireless NIC card to test if the connection will be held with the new card.  Since you admit that the map is several years old that increases the likelihood of this being a transient failure on the NETWORK card wireless itself.

    Thank you

  • "You have no preferred wireless networks.

    Hello

    I installed Build 7100 and have been finding problems in all directions. Is it the right place to report issues? The dev team will never receive any comments posted here?

    I have a specific problem that is driving me crazy and if it is not sorted there is no way I will buy Windows 7 when it is released. Whenever I reboot or exit the mode 'sleep' my wireless network was disconnected. The problem is that it automatically reconnect. In fact when I try a reconnection he asks me the password all over again as if she had never met before network. In addition, I have try three or four times before it connects without error. The network is also extremely stable and was under XP.

    The Troubleshoot utility of reports "You have no preferred wireless networks", which is false, because I connect automatically is always checked for this SSID. I tried which allows to 'Connect even if the network is not broadcasting its name (SSID)', but this option is reset after reboot / sleep. "Connect automatically" is still however verified. Installed with the driver is REALTEK USB Wireless LAN Utility Version 402.1470.518.2007.

    I fear that such problems will not get noticed at Microsoft because they are now focusing only on telemetry. I want to buy Windows this time, I don't really, but I won't buy a defective product.

    I connect to the Router 1 billion (BiPAC 7401VGP R3) with a USB (BiPAC 3012 G) wireless network adapter.

    Hi Vargorlopano,

    Thanks for posting on the Forum of answers.

    Some network cards have to be able to save the settings that will put your NIC sleep when Windows goes to sleep.

    You can click Start, type "power options" then right click on the entry that is displayed at the top of the menu and click on "Run as Administrator".
    Your password can be asked to you.
    On the right side of the window, click on "Change plan settings", then click on "change power avancΘs."
    You should see an entry in the list that says 'wireless adapter settings', change it to 'Performance', and click OK.
    Click on save changes.

    Please let us know if that helps.

  • VERY SLOW (< 200 KB/s) copy between Win7 Machines on wireless network of 300 MB of files

    Hi all

    This problem has been driving me crazy over a week now, and I would really appreciate the help.

    I have a PC under that Win7 Ultimate connected to my Wireless-N 300Mbps network in my office.  This machine connects to the network very well to 104Mbps (limitation of card) and can copy/transfer files to and from our servers of files on this 12-15Mbps n wireless network.  Works perfectly, and I really enjoyed Win7!

    I just added a new ZINO HD (Dell Inspiron 400) with a Dell 1520 802.11 b/g/n wireless NETWORK adapter running Win7 Pro, which will connect to the same wireless n to 216Mbps (according to the "network and sharing Center").  However, all the files that I have copy/transfer to/from the ZINO/from the PC ultimate Win7 or our file servers move at speeds of 54 kbit/s to 972 Kbps and the rate sometimes goes up and down during the copy/transfer.

    I have no problem with the speed of the files uploaded/downloaded from Internet from the ZINO on the same wireless network.  The ZINO has 5 bars on the connectivity.

    I tried to make sure that all of the ZINO drivers are the latest and functioning properly.  I also played with a number of different parameters on the ZINO NIC without change and tried different settings on the router (Linksys WRT150N) without success.  I tested it with the firewall turned on and off and tried a number of other suggestions I found on various forums, all to nothing does not.

    I thank in advance for any help, you may be able to give.

    Hi all

    OK, my team found a solution to our problem.  Here are the steps:

    1. as administrator at the command prompt, type: "netsh int tcp set off heuristic."

    2. follow the instructions that Amrita wrote above.

    First enter: "netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel = disabled"and restart. "

    Then enter: "netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel = normal" to give the typical setting.

    3. Finally, go to control panel > programs > turn Windows features on or off > and check ' Simple TCPIP services (echo, day, etc.) so that it is activated. "

    4 restart your system once again, and the file transfer rate should be excellent.

  • Specific wireless network does not connect in Windows 7, but does in Windows 10?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L750D laptop, it is about 3 years old now.

    I use Windows 7 for a while. Everything works fine to connect wireless at home and more than other wireless networks, but the hours was spent without success to get it to connect to the wireless work (Ministry of education, that's why this included fiddling around with the proxy settings and user authentication options). I got it to connect properly this wireless in the past, but to another school.

    I had given up on actually being able to use internet in my class to improve the education of students.

    I upgraded my computer to Windows 10, then suddenly, following the same steps that we had tried before, my laptop had no connection to detnsw disorders. Hooray, 21st century learning!

    Unfortunately, some of the hardware in my computer graphics or something couldn't handle Windows 10 (or I couldn't manage Windows 10 and what he did to my outdated laptop), so I had to use the restore function, which came back my computer to Windows 7 without having to format my computer and re - install Windows 7 from an external source.

    Now she continues to refuse to connect, even advise that to contact the network administrator.

    It's driving me crazy. What is different between the 2 operating systems that allows to connect without fuss one way and deny the other way?

    I have triple checked everything I could think of that could prevent the connection, including the drivers and my antivirus, nothing helps.

    Is this just a case of Resistentialism that cause me to seriously consider spending the money that I have not currently on a new laptop just so I can show the occasional Youtube educational video?

    Has anyone else had a similar problem, or is it just me?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query to the Microsoft forum. I will definitely help you with this.

    The problem may occur if the network drivers are not correctly updated or you need to change the network settings.

  • Bridge mode breaks down wireless network

    I have a Time Capsule of 4th generation, I am creating an additional wifi network at the back of my house to cover a dead zone.  I'm not trying to extend an existing wifi, I seek to create a new wifi network but have it on the same network range as my network existing.

    My ISP is a router that I have in my basement that has wireless on it. .  It powers up to one router links AC that all my devices connect to.  Then, this device provides wired and wireless access to most of the House.  However, I have a task of dead at the back of the House for the wifi.  So I have an Ethernet cable, which goes to the back of the House and who connects in port WAN on the Apple Airport Extreme / Time Capsule (4th gen).   If I set this device to create a new wireless network in bridge mode, it works for about 20 minutes to an hour and then causes a sort of problem on my network and all my other devices go crazy.  If I disable the router from Apple or back to NAT, everything's fine.

    The only reason why I don't want to do this NAT device is because if I put it up to NAT then devices connected to the apple Airport extreme will have more access to the apple TV on the main network.

    So I need no more shots on why the bridge mode does not work on the router from apple or I need to know how to get Apple TV visible on two different IP ranges at the same time.  Unfortunately, the Apple TV can be connected to both wifi and wireless at the same time.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Bridge should work fine... I would suspect that your TC gives signs of decomposition.

    It is now more than 3 years old which is the best before date.

    Try again using static IP method... I think it is more successful than the bridge.

    Should be enough information in this post... but if not just give me all the IP info from the existing modem router to. I can then give you specific info to set the TC.

  • Satellite L - had wireless network adapter

    Unable to get a wireless connection. I checked in the Device Manager and the Realtek wireless network adapter had disappeared. Had already tried to update the driver, but I guess if the unit isn't here, he doesn't want a driver.

    Found one (I mean heritage?) Wireless network adapter Realtek by doing something that I don't really know anymore, but that doesn't seem to work and will not be an update of the driver. In addition, my USB ports do not seem to work; "does not recognize USB devices", so the wireless mouse does not work and now my DVD player does not read DVD, however seems to read CDs.

    All of these flaws could be connected in a very simple way I have not discovered yet? My computer is virtually unusable. He sends me crazy. I checked the updates of Windows and made only Toshiba many downloads etc. as I can for the last 2 years but nothing seems to work.

    Really really welcome ideas. It works on Vista.
    Thank you very much

    Hi bonce,.

    > have done as much as possible etc Toshiba downloads I can for the last 2 years
    And now you have a confused until the Windows installation where nothing works correctly of course if something doesn t work correctly you can take a driver update, but stop just install what you find. In the end, nothing will work, and your only option is to reinstall Windows because you are not able to remove all of these drivers. If you install or update a driver you really should know what you're doing!

    Anyway, if you still use the startup of the operating system pre-installed drive HARD or Toshiba Recovery disk recovery facility. This will restore the original with all the drivers and tools settings. Your laptop will be working properly after that.

    This is an accurate description on HARD drive recovery:

    Hello

    If everything checked OK wise network, and you have mentioned before: ' sfc/scannow' in the command as administrator prompt and it said "windows resource protection found corrupt files but was unable to trouble".

    It is perhaps that some kernel files are corrupted and cannot be updated.

    Refresh the Installation of XP.

    To be safe, back up your data and some special stuff to a flash drive.

    ----------------------------------

    Boot from the original XP CD. Pass the first screen offering Console repair and proceed as if you install a new XP.

    After accepting etc., the new Setup screen lights up and would detect the current XP installation.

    You have an option to press R to repair.

    Use it, would take about 45 min. and you would an Installation of XP refresh all by keeping your Application, data and XP configuration.

    P.S. If you have made changes to the WinXP definition (special permission as firewall) security to look on them after the update because they could go back to the default value.

  • connect the printer to the wireless network

    I have a HP Photosmart C4580 and I'm trying to connect to my wifi on my mac network. I used it for a long time to print via USB cable but I want to print wireless.

    Help please? It drives me crazy. I don't know what to try next.

    Thanks for the reply

    Since you have the Mac OSX 10.9.2 from a USB connection to the wireless is a little more difficult, only because there is no complete features of HP software to help us.

    First, you will need to restore the default settings of network on the printer. For that;

    • Press the Wireless on the product
    • Press the button next to the arrow down on the screen until restore network
      Default is highlighted and press OK.
    • Confirm that you want to restore the default settings of the network.
    • Press again the Wireless on the product
    • Press the button next to the arrow down on the screen until Turn Radio One or turn
      Radio Off is highlighted, and press OK. (Radio must be on)

    Now, on your Mac, click the wireless on the left corner ( ) and join hpsetup. Once the Mac is connected to this network, we need on the printer print a test report;

    • Press the Wireless on the product.
    • Press the button next to the arrow down on the display until wireless network
      Test is highlighted, and press OK.
    • Make a note of the IP address

    Open Safari on Mac and enter the IP address in the address bar, a page of the printer should load for you. Click on network > Wireless (802.11) > advanced, which should bring you to this page:

    From there you can enter the SSID of the network you want to connect, enter the WEP or WPA - PSK password and apply the setting. Once the printer is connected to the network, replace the Mac on your network and you should be able to add the printer.

  • HOW THE AIRPORT TIME CAPSULE WIRELESS NETWORK IS PROTECTED?

    I implemented the airport Time Capsule, using a DSL modem connected to the internet as its bridge.  MacBook Pro was used for initial set up by the bolt of lightning to Ethernet connector and then disconnected and works perfectly.  Now, I would like to use Wi - Fi for my Samsung phone not iOS.  On the Samsung wireless I connect to my home network using a password.  Well, I don't think that a password was never set.  How can I configure my wifi at home to establish a password?   I don't think that the modem settings should enter in solving this for me, but I'll add that the modem required a static IP address be entered for this connection when its router features have been disabled for the connection of bridge.

    If the Time Capsule (TC) provides the wireless network, then you can secure it using AirPort Utility, as follows:

    • Run the AirPort Utility.
    • Select the TC and then, select change.
    • Select the wireless tab.
    • In the wireless security, select the type of security. I highly recommend that you choose: WPA2 Personal
    • Enter a password in the field password wireless. Enter the same password in the verify password.
    • Select Update.

  • How better to create a wireless network

    I just moved into a property where every room has an Ethernet jack.  I intend to wire hard as many devices as I can but I also want to create a wireless network that will cover the whole of the property.

    There is no single ethernet jack which will result in only a single wireless router will cover the whole of the property.  What is the best way for me to move forward?

    I have a new time Capsule and a couple of Airport Express.  Is it possible to use the Ethernet available in each room to create a unique wireless rather than Beach which extends from the time Capsule?

    How would I do that?

    The 'best' way would be something like the following:

    • Where the Internet stream comes home, it's where the Internet modem should be located.
    • Connect a wired router only or your Time Capsule near the modem and connect it to the modem by Ethernet.
    • If this place has an Ethernet distribution panel which feeds on Ethernet wiring to the rest of the House, then connect the router or the Time Capsule to this Panel.
    • You can then place your AirPort Express base stations where you need a Wi - Fi connection by connecting to the appropriate outlet.
  • How to reconfigure wireless network extended with several base stations

    I have a wifi network in an Airport Extreme wired to the modem from our Internet service provider and an Airport Express Terminal extended wireless in another part of the House. I recently added a second Airport Extreme (also extended wireless) to boost coverage in another area of the House. I want to have the Express and the extreme second each wireless connection directly to the base station to the modem to have the shortest path to the main base station, but the Airport utility network diagram seems to keep showing the network of linearly (main Extreme base - second extreme - Express). So, two questions: first, represents the schema of utility Airport the signal path real (linear Express by Extreme II, then to Extreme II/modem)?  And secondly, if so, how to reconfigure the network to have both Express and Extreme II forking the extreme base I directly, rather than having the food by Extreme II, then Extreme I Express. The network showed that the desired branched network yesterday, but today went back into the linear trajectory. I tried a simple drag and drop graphic to move the Express, thinking that surely the Apple would implement such a simple, logical and direct way to manage the network, but no. Have not seen another way to configure the network manually, so any suggestions would be appreciated.

    It is very important to understand that Apple "extend a wireless network" works on signal strength.

    In order to have the AirPort Express and AirPort Extreme to extend the network of the 'main' extreme wireless, two conditions must be fulfilled:

    (1) the AirPort Express and AirPort Extreme extension should both be on the same relative distance of the extreme 'main '.

    (2) AirPort Express and AirPort Extreme extension must both be closer to the extreme 'main' they are to each other.

    In other words, a well put together would have your "main" AirPort Extreme in the middle of the House, with a Terminal AirPort Express on one end of the House and the AirPort Extreme to the other end of the House.  In this configuration, the two airports are about the same distance from the extreme 'main'... and... "" oth extending airports are located more close to the "main" airport that they are with each other.
