Cable Modem / Dell Dimension 4700 - Lost Internet Connection?

Jan 9, 2012

Cable modem connected directly to a Dell Vostro laptop works fine. Same cable reconnected to Dell Dimension 4700 is not working. This has all been working fine for years - usually I have a wireless network with the 4700 connected to the router by Ethernet cable, and the Vostro connected by wireless, but I have removed the router to close in on the problem.First, I am not sure if my ip settings are correct. This is the output from 'ipconfig /all' [CODE].

Dell Dimension 9100 With XP SP3 - No Internet Connection After Thunderstorm?

Jul 5, 2011

Around 2 weeks ago, there was a storm in my city that completely shut down all the power for around 5 minutes. After we got the power back, I connected all the wires in the router again and tested the connection on my desktop. The internet was not connecting at all. Every few seconds a message that says "A network cable is unplugged" pops up and then it goes to Acquiring network address.I thought maybe the storm damaged the card. My father called IT Support from his office and told me to check for a light blinking next to the ethernet port at the back of the PC. IT said that if the light was flashing, then it wasn't a problem with the network card.I changed the Link Speed to every different option. No luck. I tried the Repair command. It shows up with a message saying that the IP address couldn't be renewed. I even updated all the drivers.I'm at a loss here.It's a Dell Dimension 9100 with Windows XP SP3.

Recently, I re-installed windows XP on a newly formatted hard drive.  I tried to use the network setup wizard to create an internet connection via  a cable plugged into back of pc but the wizard says that it can not detect network hardware.  I believe the network card is built into the Motherboard.

Lost Internet Connection When Setting Westell 6100 Modem To Simply Bridge To Router?

Aug 1, 2011

Earlier today I attempted to change the setting on my Westell 6100 modem such that it would simply bridge the connection to my Linksys WRT54GS router, basically involving setting the router to bridge only and turning DHCP off. Now I no longer get an internet connection through my router when previously the connection had worked perfectly fine before. I following the steps of cloning the MAC address to the router and have done the proper resetting steps (computer, them router, then modem) but I simply can't get an internet connection through my router. The process to set up simple bridging from the modem what supposed to end up with the internet light no longer turning on but the light turned back on following one of the resets.

Currently, I can connect to the internet through the modem just fine but I get nothing when I include the router. I'm not sure if there are some other settings I'm supposed to be changing as I can't seem to find anything past what I've already done when researching online. At this point I would just be happy reverting the settings I've changed but I don't know how to access the modem now that DHCP is off.Basically, I'd prefer to be able to get the router working with these new settings but if that proves too difficult (as I've heard it can be when trying to get Westell modems to work with Linksys routers) I'd like to learn how to access the modem and change the settings back to what they were (preferably in as simple terms as possible as I don't particularly understand what a lot of these settings/configurations do).(And a bit of an aside, but I had attempted to do this modem bridging to "fix" perceived internet speed problems. I've been averaging around 300Kbps download rates ever since I've had this internet connection from Verizon when the supposed download rates should be between 1MB and 1.3MB. Doing this modem bridging had been reported to fix some modem/router conflicts and improved connection speeds for some.)

Dell :: XPS400 Lost LAN Connection / Cannot Connect To Internet After Troubleshooting

May 28, 2013

I have an older windows xp computer, xps 400.

 I had unplugged my computer due to painting the room. When i plugged back it I couldn not connect to internet. But oddlly enough my mcafee security center gave me a message that mcafee subscription expired, which it can't as I use it through my subscription through aol. Had this problem once before. So i uninstalled mcafee. I ran malwarebytes to see if there was anything that might prevent me for accessing internet, it found two adware that I quarentined.

I have tested my ethernet cord and connectivity on another computer it works fine.I had a realek RTL8139 Family PCI Ethernet NIC, i reloaded the driver after downloading from my other computer, now it say it is a realtek RTL 8139/810x family ethernet nic, not sure if I downloaded the wrong driver but before that I tried changing the speed to less than auto detect.

I have rebooted in safe mode in case there was a virus. I am at my wits end.Is there a way to factory reset the network adapter. What else can I do. light at the ethernet port looks to be yellow. Everything says it is working, I just can't connect.

Dell :: Dimension 510 Wireless Connection Access?

Feb 5, 2012

I just set up a wireless router in my home to my Dimension 510 computer. I know the wirelss is working because our Ps#, Iphones and ITouches can receive the signals.

However, our other desktop Dimension 510 does not appear to be receiving the wireless signal. 

does it just not have the capability to receive a wireless signal and I have to use an ethernet cable connection?

Is there something I need to add in order for it to receive the sireless signal (some one mentioned an adapter but I thought an adapter just boosts the signal, and the desktop is the closest device to the network router so it should be receiveing the signal okay).

Dell :: Dimension 4600 Not Connecting To The Internet?

Jun 17, 2012

My  ethernet was working fine when I shut down my computer then all of a sudden it rebooted and gave me a blue screen.  I rebooted it and it started but then it was not able to connect to the internet.  The pci adapter driver was not there.  I reinstalled it and it still would not connect.  I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, changed the ethernet cord for a new one and tested the new cord on a different device with no problem but stil cannot connect.  It says network cable is unplugged.  This happened before and the dsl technician was able to get it to work again unfortunately I have no idea how but it had something to do with the configuration.

Dell :: Dimension E310 / Cannot Connect To Internet

Aug 24, 2012

My (home desktop Dell Dimension E310) other computer had a virus that flatlined the machine.  I reinstalled the operating system from the discs provided by DELL.  Now, I can't connect to my DSL.  The browser wont see the http:/192.168.0.1 ActionTec router.  It's plugged directly into the computer via ethernet cable.  this laptop is receiving signal from the wireless portion of that router, so there has to be a signal to the computer (it was working earlier this morning prior to DELL disc reinstall).

Dell :: Dimension 3000 - Cannot Dial Into Internet

Feb 22, 2012

I use a Dimension 3000 desktop. I cannot dial in to my ISP (Juno). Each time I try, it responds "can't dial in".  I checked the connection, that's ok. I checked the phone line and that's ok. A box pops up that says "system service not working go to Help & Support"  When I try to go to Help & Support, a box pops up "system service not working". 

This all began after I used an AVG PC Tuneup.  Since then the bottom line colors changed. For example, where START was green with white letters and the windows colors symbol; it is now WHITE with Black letters only.  Where bottom line across was blue, now it too is WHITE. 

I can pull up WORD, Games,etc. but am unable to dial in to get to internet.

It keeps trying and failiing.its a Motorola SB5100 from 10 years ago. how to seperate bad wiring from a bad modem?

Connection Between Access Point / Router Or Cable Modem - Internet Broken

Jan 31, 2012

My laptop died last week and have been using my husbands, which I hate! We had some issues with computer freezing on some webpages or after being on webpages for awhile (like facebook). Yesterday it froze and I could not get it back on. When he got home he did scan disk (which I also did) and got it working after going into safe mode and doing system restore. He said an update had gotten through and messed things up. Anyhow, after he was on it a few hours last night, we lost connection. I figured the crazy weather was the culprit but it has been off all day. Our router is working and connecting but the adapter is not. Also our home phone says there is no line. We have unplugged everything several times, checked to make sure everything is in the right spots, I have even reset the router and rebooted the adapter. I uninstalled and restalled the adapter also. It is now telling me that "the connection between your access point, router, or cable modem and the Internet is broken". The only lights I have on the adapter are power, battery, DS and now the US light is blinking. The online and link lights are not on.

Dell Dimension 4300 - How To Secure Windows ME System Connected To Internet

May 26, 2013

I am about to re-install Windows ME on an old Dell Dimension 4300. The computer is connected to the internet via a 2Wire 3600HGV DSL modem/router.

Do I need a software firewall? Or is the router sufficient? Is antivirus software necessary if I don't download anything? It will be part of a local LAN, so I don't want to jeopardize any of the other PCs on the home network.

NOTE: I'm looking to run some older (non-DOS) computer games that don't run well (or at all) on XP and newer systems.

NOTE 2: When I say 'secure', I'm not looking to actively browse the web on the machine. I was curious as to what risks I be facing if I simply had this PC connected to my local network (and thus the internet).

Linksys Cable / DSL :: WAG320N DSL Connection Lost

Mar 26, 2011

I have been using a WAG320N since January. Around a week ago I came home to find the unit attempting to reconnect every few minutes - the DSL light flashing but nothing happening.
 
I replaced with an old Belkin unit which worked fine straight away.
 
i have upgraded the firmware, which made no difference, and secondly, tried a brand new unit, which strangly had the same problem even though the ancient belkin unit works first time and my original cisco unit worked for a couple of months before failing.
 
Are there any settings that relate to the DSL connection that may have been reset on the original unit? Could this be an issue related to signal quality or anything similar?

Linksys EA2700 And Modem Is A Sagemcom 4300 - Connection Lost?

Jul 9, 2012

I have a double Nat problem with my modem acting as a router while it is connected to my router. This is a problem for me because I like to game online and a double Nat makes this difficult. I know the process of setting my modem in bridge mode but I have a few questions before I do so.

1. If I bridge my modem will this cause me to lose connection, if so then how do I get myself back online?

2. While bridging the modem does my router have to be set to any type of special configuration, if so then what do I do?

My router is a Linksys EA2700 and my modem is a Sagemcom 4300.
