The situation is kinda bizarre: I can't access our home network on my laptopowever, we also have a network that's an extension of our home network (for coverage purposes in our garage) and I can access that one perfectly. I've tried restarting and resetting every thing, but to no real success. It always won't let me access this one particular network on this particular laptopYesterday it mysteriously worked after weeks of frustration. I don't know why, but it gave this message of ipaddress conflict/resolve, and then it worked. But then because of automatic windows updates my computer restarted and now I can't get it to work again.I figured there must be a reason why all other combinations work except for my laptop and this network, and why I can't reproduce the one time it did work. (And it always used to work before several weeks ago)
Is there any chance the Wireless Repeater mode work with WPA2-AES ?If not, which model of AP should I buy to connect it with my wap54g as Wireless Repeater?
I have a DIR-655 B1 router. The firmware is 2.00 NA. Just to clarify, the DSi itself does work with WPA, but the games only work with WEP. I made a guest account and set it to WEP and it still does not work. I have tried making the main connection WEP as well, but when I go on the game and try it, it says it is WPA and not WEP. My friend has a DIR-655 as well, but the hardware and firmware version are different. Her games work flawlessly.
Very often my internet just goes down. I always get a problem about the DNS lookup failing. I decided to change my ISP but sadly I still get the same errors and slow down.
Since i got black ops 2 for PC i started to play it very much and i port forwarded all the ports for an open nat type. strangely a few days ago my router somehow (re)turned him self on. My normal IP4 adress (what i found in CMD > ipconfig/all) was first like 192.XXX.X.65. after it returned itself on i got 192.XXX.X.66. My router just returned him self on again and its back at 192.XXX.X.65 again. does this changing have to do somthing with the ports from black ops 2?
My internet crashes randomly for no reason I can easily see. It usually happens when i'm running my minecraft server and something else that uses constant internet at the same time, such as pandora or playing on the server. it takes down our whole houses internet, and is really starting to piss me off because i run a full minecraft server so i cant really just stop it, and i cant afford renting one. it does this for both the wifi and lan.
Does any know of a utility that I can install on my workstation that will break my screen with an alert when another computer on my network has lost power. I have 1 computer on my network in an unmaned office that crashes once in awhile and it could be a couple of days before we notice it is down. We want to be alerted as soon as it crashes
I tried setting up the wireless at my mom's house, and she has the following hardware:Motorola SB4220 Surfboard ModemNetgear RangeMax WPN824 RouterAll computers run Windows, XP or VistaAlso, when I go to Control Panel -> Network Connections, under "Local Area Connection" it says "Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC". I guess that's a driver, but I don't know what that means.The wireless works, but it turns off and on randomly every couple of seconds, so anyone using it has to keep refreshing pages until it catches a signal.Here's something I think might show where the cause is: when I go to Control Panel -> Network Connections, it usually shows "LAN or High Speed Internet", but sometimes it also shows "Internet Gateway", and the following:
My DIR-655 randomly drops its connection. All devices on the network behave as though the network is not available, then again sees the network, and reconnects (all devices being two laptops, three smartphones, and a PS3...same symptoms). My modem does not have any problems, and I have tried resetting the router, but it has not worked.
As the topic says the internet keeps dropping at what seems like random times, Only for a few seconds but its enough to ruin the games I do play.Sometimes it will stay on local for like 5-10 minutes if its really bad but usually not, I've tried the regedit thing, updating wireless card driver and been searching on google for different stuff but it just doesn't seem to work.
i have a fiber optics 75mbps internet , using a wireless n pcie adaptor on my computer,Dont know why but some times theres random ping spikes when im in game.Sometimes internet randomly dcs.Download speed is also very random from 2mb/s to few bytes.Also sometimes internet speed is so low that it is barely usable.
This has been going on for a few months now, but I'm just finally getting around to finding out the issue. So basically, this is what's happening; I'm randomly browsing some pages just fine, then I try to go to another page, and I can't load the page. I try to open a new page after that, it won't load. My internet still says it's at full bar internet access. I can somehow still use pages that are open (Such as a chat program, I can still chat in there, but I can't load any pages) for as long as a few hours after the internet supposedly shuts off. Everybody else in my household doesn't, and hasn't ever had this problem before, so I seriously doubt it's the modem. I've tried moving my laptop into those places to see if it's a problem with reception in the area I'm at, though it doesn't. The only thing that will turn the internet back on again, is a computer restart. After a fresh restart, the internet will last anywhere between 4 hours to a couple of days before doing that.?
It's plugged in via an Ethernet Cable from a Homeplug Adapter, since the modem is not in the same room as me. Basically, I've been having problems with the internet randomly disconnecting and for no reasons. There's some days where it'll go fine, no problems at all, other than a few things that always disconnects it, then there is days like today, where it keeps connecting every time I try to go to a webpage. I cannot seem to upload anything to the web (Youtube, Mediafire, etc.) without the internet disconnecting before it uploads. The only other problem that I've had constantly, even if it is working fine, is I cannot seem to do a video call on Skype or really use my webcam to broadcast online without my internet disconnecting. Also, when I play games via Steam such as TF2, Call Of Duty, etc., I have no problem with the internet at all, it works smoothly and never crashes when I play games. And the desktop is the only thing that ever has this problem. We have 1 other desktop, and 3 laptops (all connected wirelessly) and they do not disconnect from the internet at all. This has been going on for quite a while, and I'm still not certain on what is triggering it.
My internet will disconnect and reconnect randomly, nothing works every time to fix it, the time online and offline is random, sometimes it works when i turn on the computer, sometimes it doesn't , sometimes it stops after a while, sometimes restarting works.
I am running Windows XP on a desktop computer with the most current service pack installed and I have a linksys wireless router installed in the computer. I know the router isn't linksys, I think it may be netgear. I have no way of connecting wired to the router. My bf's laptop running windows 7 is used wirelessly in the same room as my desktop and rarely has any problems connecting. I should mention that this problem also occurred on this computer while living in other locations and using different routers, but it was never this sporadic. It was best when used in conjunction with the linksys WRT54G router.
I realized today looking at the status of the wireless network connection that the network name and signal strength will disappear and reappear randomly, all while still saying I am connected and that I have sent and received packets, and sometimes randomly changing connection speed as well. Sometimes an alert bubble will pop up saying that my internet connection is connected and that I have excellent signal strength, with varying speeds, but the internet still doesn't work. Or sometimes it does work. How to access it.
My wireless adapter keeps turning off randomly on my HP G60 120EM.
It will have my connection strength icon on the icon tray and then just randomly display an adapter with a red cross through it.I have made sure that the adapter is not set to turn off on power save but still the problem persists.I thought it could be the adapter being loose inside the laptop but if i give the laptop a small shake it doesn't disconnect and I opened up the laptop and everything seems fine.This is where it gets a bit strange. If I close the laptop lid then open it again, the wireless is fine, but will drop off again about a minute later.
I'm currently setup with a modem > router > wifi/cable(makes no matter, same issue).If I use the cable straight from the modem into my PC, there are absolutely no issues. Working perfectly.Alright, so to my issue. If I play any games on my PC/PS3, I will suddenly lose my connection for a second or two. Not long enough for me to disconnect from the game. But rather, what should have occured during that time, will just fly by in a split second. This happens, maybe, 2-4 times per hour. I haven't changed much more than the password in the router since i bought it about 3 months ago.Should add that I have a 100/100 fiber connection from Telia, and I drop like 2-3mbit/s from using the router, compared to going straight from the modem.
A couple weeks ago every device on my wireless network started disconnecting from the internet in unison and seemingly at random and then reconnecting. The time between these disconnects varied anywhere between almost immediately after regaining a connection and three to four hours later. As things stand I have a SpeedStream 5200 modem running into a D-Link DIR-655 wireless router. I have had no problems with internet connectivity up until this point. During each disconnect, every device remains connected to the router. I've called Bell and they claim there is no issue with the modem. To test their theory, I bypassed the router altogether, and attempted to connect through an ethernet cable, but to no avail, as the now hardwired device continued to get disconnected. These failures seem to be occurring between noon and 10 p.m. and to be honest I'm amazed that one has not cut this post short.
While searching the web, watching movies, or doing something randomly on my laptop which runs Windows Vista, I seem to randomly disconnect from my internet and it will soon reconnect a minute later. I currently have Comcast High Speed internet as my ISP and my router is a D-Link DIR-628. It mostly happens when i'm watching a video or something to that extent. I'm assuming it has to do with bandwidth? I am not completely sure though.

I have had this problem for ages now. Every thing will be going fine for large periods of time then randomly i will stop being able to access the internet.
I have tried pinging various things such as google.com, when i do i get a range of reposnes from no packets lost, to no repsose atall. the results from the latest google ping;
I currently own a Lenovo Thinkpad x201 Tablet Laptop.The issue is that I randomly lose internet access after usage for some time. I've determined [but not limited it to] that the computer heating is causing the computer to automatically disable the connections. I've looked at the Drivers and have found that one of the Drivers disables itself and will not re-enable when I try to enable it again. When I try to reboot, it stalls on the Shutting Down screen indefinitely [I must force restart].
I've checked the BIOS, but I haven't found much of anything. After tampering for a while with it, I received a BSOD. After trying to boot it back up, I got the "a disk read error has occurred" screen and had to send it in... at which point they reinstalled the OS, wiped my hard drive, and sent it back.
I have an acer aspire 5536 laptop and it will randomly disconnect from the wireless internet. Everything will be working fine but as soon as I try to load two things at once (or sometimes even one big thing) it will show that little yellow exclamation mark and say no access to internet even though it is still connected to the network. The other computers connected to the wireless work fine with no access issues so I know it is not the router. Also this happened in my previous home where I used wireless but from a different provider so it is definitely something wrong with the computer. Every time it goes to no internet access if I disconnect and then reconnect it works again.
[CODE]My internet connection just keep on disconnecting after months of using it. im on wireless and the internet randomlydisconnects and from my laptop, when i scroll over the wireless logo, it doesnt show any wireless networks. Its like my laptop wireless is disabled or somthing.then i need to restart my com.and 2-3 mins later, off again.btw i also have problems shutting down my laptop as it took very long even for a day
I access my files off of my desktop on my laptop, 360, and PS3 but now I cannot. I haven't made any significant changes to either computer.I've tried a ton of different things. All of the folders I want to share are set as shared. All of my sharing options are turned on in the Network and Sharing Center However, when I click on "Show me all the files and folders I am sharing", I see Pictures, Videos, and Music but I don't see the other 2 folders I have set as shared
I have been using the same modem/router since late july and I have never had a problem with my wireless. Then randomly this morning it was gone. I can see lots of my neighbors networks just not mine. I restarted my router multiple times and my computer. I am now connected to the modem by ethernet cord
Randomly my router stopped working in the middle of the night. I didn't think the issue was with the router so i called the Tech Support people from Brighthouse and they told me to connect directly to the modem so i did that and I had internet. But why would my router randomly stop working, I've had this Linksys Dual N bound router for a year and never had a problem with it. I want to think that its the internet providers fault but I guess I really don't know.
I've been having this problem for a while now but something is coming up for which i require 24/7 internet connection with NO failures. problem: about 2 to 3 times a day i lose internet connection for about 1 to 2 minutes and after that everything is totally fine again. There are 5 lights on my modem in this order from top to bottom:
Internet: This light blinks green when im using it like downloading or playing something online. It stays green when i have internet but im not sending or recieving any data. DSL: always green. Wireless: I use wireless connection. its always blinking orange (i dont know why orange but it works fine) Ethernet: This light is always off cause i dont use cables. Power: always green.
What happens is that my DSL light which is supposed to be green. starts blinking. Then after 30 seconds or so it stops and just turns green again but my Internet light turns red. It stays red for about 1 to 2 minutes and then it turns green again and works fine again. Called the company many times but they dont detect anything because when we call, its always working fine. so all they tell me to do is reset the modem which does nothing. I never had this problem at my previous house 2 years ago. it just started at this address so it makes me think it is the line and not a computer/modem problem.
i have a desktop that tends to disconnect at random moments, and the only way to fix this problem is to restart for every time the internet disconnects. It is a wired connection and this desktop is the only computer in the house that has this problem.
i am a gamer and i rely on the internet to do some buisiness as well, a few months ago my router started randomly dropping me from my connection and then 10 seconds later the connection is back up. now i know alot about computers and cant figure out why this is happening. it seems that the problem starts with skype. when i play some games while in skype(we use it as a communication device for the games) i will get dropped from skype and from my game, then skype reconects and i can reconect to the game but 5 minutes later it happens again. i have at&t and am using a 2701HG-B, my donwload speed is a max of 3mbps and usualy is around 2.7mbps. i have contacted at&t multiple times, i have reset my router multiple times but it hasnt fixed the problem. at&t stated that i am demanding too much bandwith from my connection. i feel that this info totally crap. when im on with just 1 of my many devices at 3am and all i am doing is playing a game and talking on skype and it disconnects, there is no way i am demanding too much.
After many weeks of working well, with no problem, the router started to randomly disconnect 2 days ago and since then it happens few times during the day.I haven't changed anything in the setting for more than 1 month so I really don't understand why it happens.Yesterday, my fiancee was using the laptop and me the desktop when the connection dropped only for my PC, because hers was still working.Today it happened already 2 times and I would like to know how can I solve this issue. I must remind everybody that I a beginner when it comes to configuring the wireless router.
When playing multiplayer games online, I will, after some time (15-20 minutes) get horrible lag/disconnects and ping issues, It usually starts sorts itself out when i restart the game in question or just rejoin.This is getting really frustrating, I've contacted my ISP but they just claim that the problem is on my end.
I was trying to browse the internet earlier, and I randomly just lost my internet connection. My homepage loaded up just fine, but then I tried to go to another site. It was taking a while to load. After about a minute a page finally came up that said "Server not found" (I use firefox). I can't get on any websites now and I can't get internet on any of my wireless devices either. When I right clicked my network icon on the toolbar and clicked on diagnose and repair it said "There may be a problem with the DNS. Windows attempted to find the well known host www.microsoft.com using dns. The server responded that the name was unknown." I have Windows Vista. Now I have no idea what I could have done. I didn't do anything out of the normal, just tried to go to a website that I frequently visit with no problems and this happened. This is what I get when I type ipconfig/all in cmd prompt. [code]
