I have a dell laptop and its operating on Windows XP,I have followed several options from researching on the internet on how to fix the problem but nothing has worked so far. I am NOT computer whiz by far,I just know basic stuff. It shows its connected to my wireless modem but it keeps saying "AQUIRING IP ADDRESS", the address is saying "O". There are no numbers when I place the mouse over it. I went to the properties and advanced settings and changed the WINS. I tried restoring my computer to the earliest setting I could.
Our HPG62 notebook and a Dell laptop use wireless router in our home. This AM the Dell connects via wireless, the HP shows green on our wireless network but but the house symbol above the list of available wireless networks says "no internet access". I've tried looking for an external switch but don't see one. We are fairly basic users and don't know what to do.
I have a Dell Wireless 1397 WLAN MiniCard and have been able to connect to all hostels wifi networks until now. There isn't anything wrong with the network itself because my iPhone and a different tablet can still connect to it.The network is in the list, full signal, but it tries to connect and sticks at 'Acquiring network address' then fails. I have tried the Repair button an it says it can't repair it because it can't give me a new IP address.
I have a nintendo dsi and a 7" wireless netbook and 7" notebook. It says signal strength good, it even says connected. But when I goto internet unable to connect. We have a wireless laptop that works fine.
I have an HP notebook and it says I am connected with my wireless, but I have no internet access. I have tried to do the CMD CONFIG ALL, but it comes up with a black box so there is nothing for me to cut and paste. This happens on my daughter's wireless connection as well as at our public library.
wMy Gateway notebook won't connect to the internet even when directly connected to the router. When I ran the diagnostic, it said to reset the modem. When I went into Device Manager, there was no modem listed. I did reset the wireless adapter- to no avail
I have a HP Notebook PC DV6815nr (knows as DV6700) which i bought 2 years ago. Initially the laptop came pre-installed with Vista. However i upgraded to Windows 7 about a year ago. Yesterday when i turned on my laptop, i noticed that my laptop could not connect to the internet. Even i could not see any available wireless connections. I turn the wireless switch on or off...does not make a difference.
So i decided to check the driver files for the internet which can be found in Device Manager...and noticed that there was a driver ( nVidia nforce networking controller ) which had an exclamation mark. First i am not sure if that driver is for wired or wireless connection??. Secondly, i went on HP Website to see if i can download drivers from their website..and they did but only for PC's with Vista on them..no Windows 7...i tried so hrad to look for these driver files.
Ive just bought a new toshiba notebook c850 andf i want to connect to the internet using a wireless usb modem. Ive used 2 seperate modems and none of them work it keeps saying to reinstall or update the device. I dont have wifi and these modems work on all of my other computers why not this one?
I have a used Inspiron 6000 and obviously the recovery CD doesn't contain the driver for my WiFi.
So, like any normal and quite capable PC user, I went to the Dell site and entered the Service Tag. So far so good. However, no driver to be found for my Wireless component. Believe me, I attempted to install ALL Communication and Network drivers available. The message I got in the wizard was always "Installation not possible. Please contact your administrator". I tried to phone, got stuck in a waiting line for 11 minutes 35 seconds, which I mentioned before ripped me off for €10 and then the line went dead. All mails have been so far left unanswered. Angry doesn't come close.
Without telling me to go to Microsoft or Dell or any other obscure website which then leads me back to Dell, where I can get the proper WiFi (WLAN for you modern machine users..) Network controller driver for my notebook, which is a Dell Inspiron 6000 Notebook.
For over a month now my laptop has been unable to connect to the internet via a wireless connection. It will connect to the network, but that's as far as it goes. Resetting the router does nothing, and the same can be said for resetting the network wireless adapter. However connecting via the LAN cable to the Router will allow me to connect to the internet and use it normally.I've even tried deleting the wireless information for my network off the computer and re-inputting it but that didn't solve the problem either.I have an HP Pavilion g7 notebook PC that is running Windows 7. I got in it June 2012 brand new and have had nothing but problems with the wireless. It worked fantastic for the first few months and then this happened for the first time. I managed to fix it by myself that time, but I don't remember exactly what I did. It worked alright for the next few months but it was kind of spotty and temperamental. And now it's not working at all. I've tried everything I can think of to fix the problem but nothing has worked so far. According to the HP support Assistant my wireless adapter is called "Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 1030"
how to network my Windows Vista Gateway notebook to my Dell Desktop Windows XP? They were networked by a friend but when the motherboard was replaced on the desktop the notebook will not print from another room "wirelessly" as in the past.
You mentioned a "Notebook System Utility." The download page lists the models it is for. My Dell Inspiron N5110 is not listed. Do you think I maybe need this and they forgot to list some models? Should I not try it?
How do I enable the wireless capability on my hp G7286US Notebook? It was working fine until last night. My LAN connection works for my desktop; however, I cannot enable the wireless connection on my laptop. My OS is Windows 7?
For quite some time my linksys wireless g notebook adapter hasn't been connecting to the Internet at all. I go to my Internet options and my house's Internet router doesn't show up. I remember a long time ago I was clearing space on my computer because its and old one and it runs slow Because I don't have much memory and I might have accidently deleted the linksis progam / installation. And I have no way of re-intalling it. I think the only way of re-installing it is using the linkage disc but I lost it in some boxes packed in storage.
My laptop is refusing to recognize the router. Until yesterday everything was fine, now it's not recognizing it at all. There are other computers on the network that connect just fine. When i go to Device Manager it is also missing the following:
Base System Device
Base System Device
Base System Device
Ethernet Controller
Network Controller
PCI Device
SM Bus Controller
Video Controller
Video Controller (VGA Compatible)
Since I can't get onto the internet from that computer, where to go to get the drivers for these to download.
We recently had a big storm and lost internet connection to our house. Whilst internet connection has since been restored I've noticed that there are now orange lights above the port where the ethernet cable connected to on our notebook. I also cannot get internet connection using the ethernet cable. Does this mean my internal modem has blown? I can use the wireless modem with no problems.
If the modem has blown, how much are they usually to replace and is it relatively easy? I have a Inspiron 1525 Notebook.
So my old dell computer cannot connect to wireless internet, so it is connected to a Netgear internet bridge box. The other bridge box is in the basement where it is connect to the modem. I believe the location of the other box is almost directly below were my computer stand (and bridge box) used to be.I recently I moved it to different corner of my house that is about 15 feet further than the previous location. Now the wired internet speed is almost unbearable and inconsistent. The wireless speed is the same, but wired is really bad. I believe it is because the bridge boxes are further away from each other.I've tried unplugging and replugging, resetting, and etc.I would really like to know how I can fix this without moving the computer back since the furniture is in a really nice place and the computer would ruin the look.
The Dell Laptop was working on wireless, now wont connect to internet, not even if hardwired to modem desktop, the wireless signal under laptop status reads 100%
I have a Dell Vostro laptop running windows 7. My ISP is a company called Scarlet which supply connection via an external modem complete with aerial. When I connect directly from the modem to the laptop via the modem it's fine. My problem is that I bought an Advantek wireless router which a friend tried to install, I'm not sure if he was successful at any point as it was some time ago. However, I am now trying to set the wireless connection up so that I can surf on the laptop and my girlfriend on her ipad in separate rooms. I currently haven't got as far as getting the laptop to work along with the modem and router, I think there may be an IP conflict. i want wireless router to work with an external wireless connection via my ISP?
i went to device manager and looked at the network devices and there is a yellow sign with a ! in it next t broadcom 801.11n network adapter and under that there is realtek RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P), but is fine i think.
I just recently got a new wireless modem from Verizon. So far, the connection with that modem is far better. My HP Touchpad, my Sony Vaio laptop, and my custom built desktop are all connected to the network. Unfortunately, that is not the case for my HP Mini1000 notebook. It detects the network connection; but, it cannot connect saying that it is unable to verify the certificate.With all the other devices, all I had to do was put in the WEP key and they were connected to the network. But, the HP Mini does not give me that option. How do I get the notebook to connect to the net?
My laptop, Dell inspiron m5030, for some reason has stopped connecting to my wireless Internet, yet my iPad can. I have tried dissconnecting from the Internet and connecting again but it just keeps saying it can't, Even the troubleshooting diagnoses doesn't work and I have already tried disconnecting the wireless Ethernet from the outlet and restarted it but,it doesn't work. to get my laptop to start connecting to the Internet fully today!
I just set up a new router/modem from Centurylink (C1000A) and am having a problem connecting wirelessly to the internet on my laptop. I have a Dell 1390 Mini-card. The laptop shows that I have excellent wireless connectivity. Is there a setting that I need to change to get my internet to stay connected?
My laptop is inspiron 5520 new one just one month old. my wireless is working but in very closed distance to the connection point, if I change the site to about 5 or 6 metter from the connection site, the Internet become interrupted! note: I did system restore and update for MecAFee
