I am running windows 7 home premium 64bit and have a wireless connection. Can I connect a switch to my LAN port on my PC and share my network connection with other devices? Would it operate as a standard switch would operate coming from a router?

I switched to Win. 7, because XP getting slow in general. I've using the brand new Netgear wireless adaptor on Win.7 while the older wireless adaptor is still on XP, but I never use XP after switch to Win.7.
On XP, Wireless connection had no issue at all, however on Win.7, the wireless connection often saying 'not service available' at the right bottom corner.
On XP, Netgear was 150 and Win 7 is 300.
Just wonder whether I should take off the wireless-adaptor from the XP if that would work to boost the wireless connection on Win.7?

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy laptop freezes about one minute after getting to the Desktop screen. Everything I need to do MUST be done via Safe Mode. I would like to get rid of this tick as efficiently as possible, so I'm counting on the "issue snipers" from TSF?

It started two days ago out of nowhere. It simply froze in the middle of composing an email. I was performing my routine business tasks that I always have done: emails, Google searches, composing letters, etc. I do not use the laptop for gaming. I thought a simple restart would clear the issue (as this laptop is very powerful and fast, with no issues at all), but yet again it froze about one minute into getting on the Desktop screen. In normal mode, the Desktop starts up and start-up audio sound is present, then while the laptop is "thinking" and processing the services, it freezes. No movement of pointer, keys or even Ctrl/Alt/Del is attainable. I must perform a "hard off" and always restart into Safe Mode to accomplish anything.
I can ONLY access internet and my files in Safe Mode. Normal Mode ALWAYS freezes. Safe Mode runs like lighting, but the only issue is that - of course - there is no audio, which is absolute important to me in my line of work. I have hardly any programs installed on the laptop that would be excessive or detrimental. Print Shop 22 (690.00MB ), CyberLink PowerDirector (766.00MB) and Microsoft Streets & Trips (1,072.00MB) are the "largest" software programs by far. No music files, no video files and few image/document files (721KB). The bulk of the memory are the standard hardware/software files that come with the laptop. Over 60% of the memory is free space. I like to keep my laptop bare bones as much as possible for maximum performance, that of which I had up until 2 days ago. I always clear my address history everyday in both Mozilla and via Control Panel, and I always empty my Recycle Bin daily as well. I was notified that an attack WAS happening, and I immediately activated my anti-virus. The virus was removed, but it looks like it left this one, annoying issue behind for me to deal with.After reading through so many posts on so many different tech support sites, it seems like the symptom could be that some services may be contradicting each other and causing the freeze. Again, this is just my assumption based on what I've been researching, as well as the other tasks (from this site) I have attempted to correct this issue:
* Ran Malwarebytes full scan, found viruses and killed them.
* Created another User Profile to access (in case it was a profile issue). Freezes the same way as it does on the original, normal profile.
* Cannot access any Windows or Microsoft updates via their sites.
* Performed a Disk Defrag and a Disk Cleanup. Utilized my Registry Repair Wizard tool.
* Cannot access System Restore in Safe Mode, and quick search in normal showed all previous restore points deleted.
* Performed a CMOS by removing the battery for about 20 minutes while unplugged, and also discharged excess charge with the power button.
* Free of lint, dust and hair
* Fan is spinning and cooling as needed.
There is NO disc drive whatsoever on this laptop, nor do I really want to reformat/clean install (if necessary).
Radio switch is turned off.

I already installed the driver for the Wireless network adapter. Windows can't find any networks, when i try to connect.
just got an hp g62 laptop but after connecting the first time time to my wireless network all i get now is "windows was unable to connect to virgin". i know that the wireless network is functioning correctly because i can connect to it via blackberry or iphone. i have been on the phone to the isp for hours changing settings and removing and replacing the network connection without any success. i have also reset the router (netgear wgr614v7) but nothing seems to work.
View 13 Replies View RelatedSo, my computer was having some serious issues, but the internet worked just fine. Me and a friend live in the same building and we're sharing a wireless connection and splitting the cost. I had to reformat my computer (it was windows XP SP3), but when I reinstalled windows it's SP2. I installed the wireless drivers and such, and those work great. However, I try to connect to the network 'Cay13' which is the one I'm sharing with my friend but it won't connect. It will just keep saying 'waiting for the network 'cay13' to connect to the network'. It won't come up with an error, it will just stop and refresh the wireless networks. I will then get a bubble that says 'Unable to connect to preferred wireless networks., Windows will keep trying.' etc... My friend's computer connects just fine so it doesn't seem like it's the router, and I've tried every which way from sunday to configure, connect, uninstall/reinstall the wireless drivers, etc.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using Windows 7, and when I lived at my house I was able to connect to wireless networks without a problem. I just moved today into my brother's old apartment and for some reason I can't connect to his wireless network. I can see it along with a number of other wireless networks, but I'm unable to connect to any of them. When I attempt to connect to a network absolutely nothing happens. Typically at the bottom right corner of my screen something will pop up saying it's trying to connect, but for some reason that isn't popping up. I know it's not a problem with the router because I'm unable to connect to any of the networks, and I also had no trouble when I tried to connect to it with my laptop.

I have a win xp laptop which connects via wireless to a cheap belkin router I have a Win 7 pro laptop which is hardwired to the router. The Win 7 machine is NOT set up for home groups. We are all on the same workgroup.
I have added the user name from the XP machine to the Win 7 pro machine with admin rights. I shared a folder on Win 7 and added the user name and gave read/write rights. I have no software firewall.
When I try to connect via win explorer via the workgroup I see the Win 7 machine (after 10 seconds). I see 'User' folder which I can browse and I see the folder that I shared but I can't access it. Access denied...
I have an old XP machine with many useful but obsolete programs and history.I have a new Win 7 HP (home premium) HP Slimline.I have a KVM switch allowing me to control each independently through one keyboard and mouse.I have several external drives, DVD drives and a wireless mouse hooked to the W7 by USB.Each computer is wireless connected to Internet via a Verizon MIFI2200 (essentially a G3 mobil phone).I have no other suitable optioons for internet available in my rural area.I ran the network setup wizard on the XP and saved a copy to thumb drive problems:
1. The W7 computer won't recognise the setup.
2. The XP doesn't show the network I set up although no errors showed up.
3. Win 7 has removed any wizard and other programs from HOME PREM for setup a network.
4. I attempted to set up the W7 manually but it refused too alllow both computers to independently use the MIFI2200.I find all hardware works fine the way I now have iit configured, but I want to move files from old to new PC and I need printer sharing until I get organized. I also need access to an external drive to backup files and general storage from both compputers.

Despite the fact that it shows an active wireless internet connection, I cannot get web pages to open. I have tried both IE and Firefox with no luck. I have tried many different websites including microsoft, msn, google and yahoo and none have connected. Other devices connected to the same wireless network include a laptop running XP, a MacBook pro, an iPhone, an iPad, and several android smart phones and all have been functioning without issue. An XP desktop is also connected to the router with an ethernet cable with no issues. This laptop is the only device running Windows 7.
