Disabling NIC With Regedit?
Aug 27, 2012
I have a friend who is in need of a laptop or netbook only for word processing.
The device cannot have any possibility of connecting to the internet, and also cannot have a webcam. I may be able to find one without a webcam, but I think the possibility of finding one without a NIC wouldn't be easy, if at all possible.
I can only think that disabling the network adapter in registry edit will be something she won't be able to undo (she's not majorly tech savvy).
I've not purchased the laptop/netbook yet, but I would like to know if it's possible and/or how to do it before I buy it.

I've been reading about optimizing my internet connection by editing and creating keys in the regedit program. I'm not sure if I've tried everything, which keys I should edit and what I should set the value as.

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].
INTEL(R) 82577LM Gigabit Network Connection

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 the Motorola SURFboard SG6580 cable modem/wireless router combo. However, I'm only using my Linksys WRT54GL for the wireless functions. It's been my old standard for years, not to mentioned I have my entire wireless encrypted network setup via this device.
So, recently I've been trying to set up Port Forwarding and I've been having trouble getting sites like canyouseeme.org to see the port. After speaking with Tech Support at my ISP, they had me disable some of the settings in my SURFboard modem in order to deactivate the router side of things to get it act only as a cable modem. However, my port forwarding is still not working.
Here is a screen shot of all the pertinent screens of my SG6580 properties, and what they had me set. if I have properly configured the modem to not interfere with my other wireless setup so I can at least rule this out as what's blocking my port forwarding?

I have a customer who wants to disable cdp on all switches for securtity reasons. The same customer has also LMS 4.0 installed.
When disabling cdp, does it affect the topology services on LMS? Can you still see the topology tab on device manager or the topology map of the entire network?

I have a Motorola SGB900 cable modem/router which up until now has done both functions. However i want to upgrade the router and so have purchased a netgear wnr2200. I have tried connecting to the WAN and LAN connections on the new router and disabling NAT and wireless on the old router in all possible configurations but i dont seem to be able to get it to work.

We inherited a lot of the equipment from another team of network administrators and every now and then, we run into a switch with some old code or configuration that was left behind and missed by us. Today, I discovered that CPP was enabled on 3 of our access-layer switches in one of the buildings we support.

I have a central cisco SG200 26P switch, with about 20 ports going off to other network switches, and individual computers around the building.I need to keep the LAN functionality of the network, but I need the majority of the computers to not have internet access. But I also need to be able quickly re-enable internet access for a particular computer connected to a particular port if required.

I have a computer that I built a few years ago. Not sure of the exact specs, but for this question, I'm not really sure it matters other than the fact that I am a diehard XP fan. Guess which OS I am using. It does not have an onboard NIC, so I am using a NetGear WG111v2 wireless adapter that I got at just about the same time as the computer. I recently moved in with some friends and they have wireless internet. I hooked up my pc, and proceeded to connect to the internet. I got a good connection, but the dreaded "Limited or No Connectivity." First off, I tried disabling the connection and then re-enabling. This had no effect. So, like always, I do a power cycle. Same thing. Ipconfig gives me a 169.254.x.x, nonroutable, ip address. I release and renew. No good. Reset winsock. No good. Device manager says my adapter is working and drivers are up to date. In any case, I uninstall and reinstall it only to find the same results as before. There are three other computers on the network, one of which is my laptop, that all connect and are provided private ips by the router.

I no longer have internet access from my home network ONLY on my desktop computer. Everything was working fine as always - then while I was in my Network and Sharing Center, and clicked on my ethernet connection, 'Local Area Connection 3', I accidentally disabled it. No big deal I thought, so I re-enabled the connection. Except for some reason, my connection is all screwed up now. The name of this connection was and always has been 'dkm2' and now it just says 'Network', with no internet access. I have unplugged the cord and plugged it into this laptop and it immediately recognizes 'dkm2' and connects flawlessly, so I know the problem is on the desktop computer's end, and not the cable or router. I have tried reinstalling the ethernet adapter, as well as reinstalling/updating all drivers for it.The network diagnostic tool turns up with a message that says the connection between either my ethernet adapter or router and the Internet is broken. No matter what I seem to try, I can't get my connection to go back to it's normal 'dkm2' connection and stop giving me a generic, disconnected 'Network'. I can't figure out what could have changed. All that happened was the disabling and enabling of Local Area Connection 3.

There is a page in the DIR-825 that logs your computers IP and the other IPs it is connecting to. I was wondering if there was a way to disable that function on select devices? My handhelds and legitimate computers that should be on the internet are filling it with spam and it is hard to check for unauthorized users on the network. If that is not possible, then would I be able to completely disable the feature?

We just recently upgraded a 5540 ASA running 8.2 to a 5555 running 8.6. I have a question concerning disabling proxy ARP with static nat rules in place. We have several instance where devices in a dmz have a static nat entry to the outside and a static nat entry to the inside using the same IP. My question is if we disable proxy arp on the inside interface would that cause device on the inside not to be able to reach the device in the dmz? From what I have seen you don't want to disable it on the outside interface due to all the static nat translations. But we have some that are have nat translation going to the inside as well. How does proxy arp come into play there? Below is a diagram of an example of the setup I a referring to. This is on the new 5555 running 8.6

my company has used Split Tunneling for all of our VPN uses, however we recently purchased 2 ASA5505s for use at various jobsites, and have been running into problems with Local Network Administrators blocking certain traffic that we need to operate. They allow full VPN connectivity to traverse their networks, so we are able to use our LAN Resources over the split tunnel no problem.
We have it set up as a Dynamic L2L Connection, and this ASA is operating flawlessly minus the traffic being blocked upstream by the network admin. Our VPN topolgy is Hub & Spoke. Below is excerpts from our config on how the VPN is set up: [code]
What we'd like to achieve is being able to pass ALL traffic (LAN & Internet) through the VPN tunnel, then be processed by the Hub ASA (192.168.9.1) on the other end. I am guessing crypto map + routing would have to be changed?
access-list to_hq extended permit ip 192.168.101.0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0route inside 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.9.1Disable NAT on Spoke. Is this how I would go about doing this??? We need ip address dhcp setroute so our ASA can find the other end and form the VPN tunnel, and I am not sure how this would affect things. [code]

I purchased a WNDR3400v2 probably around two months back and since then I haven't had any issues with it. Now, I like to keep the security setting on WPA2-PSK for the security but my brothers and my own Nintendo DS don't support this security for connecting. So, since my previous router had a guest network, I decided to activate and deactivate that network with no security when it was needed (Half hour or less), and I haven't had any issues until doing this with the WNDR3400v2.
Basically what happens is, after disabling the guest network again, no wireless devices can connect to the router... PERIOD... Upon trying to connect it also says "You are unable to connect) right after it verifies the password. I spent a few hours trying to fix it but I haven't gotten anywhere really..
What I have tried-v
-Resetting the Router
-Powercycling the Router
-Resetting it to factory defaults and restoring previous settings
-Enabling and disabling the network
-Deleting the original network saved on the computers and connecting as if from a new network.
-Also tried restarting my computers
-Updating the firmware (For some odd reason I couldn't find any firmware last week..)
I researched it a bit and found some solid leads, but nothing that fixed the issue. The only "Fix" I could find was disabling the security and leaving it open.. Which I would prefer not to do for obvious reasons...
Router Type: Netgear Wireless Dual-Band N600 Router (WNDR3400v2)
Firmware: V1.0.0.34_1.0.52

Basically, my issue stems from the latest Boxee firmware from 2 weeks ago, that since then, its been causing my DIR 655 to reset itself, thereby disabling my whole home internet. It eventually turns back on again after a while, but the process doesn't stop.Basically, my DIR 655 is connected, hard wired to my boxee. I also have a NAS 323 hard wired to my router. I've had this setup on my boxee, reading all my movies/shows from my NAS without any issues for the past 10 months. Then the firmware from 2 weeks ago on the boxee started to cause my router to reset. I thought it was a hardware router failure, so I bought another of the same model to try that out, same thing happened though. When I rolled back my boxee firmware to the previous version, it no longer causes my router to reset.Now, besides me trying to figure out how to correctly block the boxee from updating on the router. Is there anything I can do on the router to tell it to prevent it from letting the boxee forcing it to reset? I'm on High Speed DSL. My internet provider modem is acting as a bridge to my DIR 655. Its been working fine for the past 10 months.
I've also done the following:Ensure DNS IP addresses are being filled in under Setup/Internet/Manual? You can find thse under Status/Device Info/Wan section. Turned off ALL QoS Turned off Advanced DNS Services if you have this option under Setup/Internet/Manual.Turned on DNS Relay under Setup/Networking.Setup DHCP reserved IP addresses for all devices on my router.Ensure devices are set to auto obtain an IP address.I have Set Firewall settings to Endpoint Independent for TCP and UDP..
Basically, I've put my boxee back to my previous firmware, and this doesn't cause my router to reset and disable my internet. But I don't get how/why a firmware update can trigger my router to do this?

What is the impact of disabling xlate in FWSM
We have dynamic NAT configured from inside to outside interface, but still it is showing NAT entry as below.
"NAT from inside:177.26.99.10 to outside:177.26.99.10 flags Ii"
Expected NAT entry should as below :
"NAT from inside:177.26.99.10 to outside:111.111.111.111 flags Ii"
We were considering implementing "ip verify revert-path" .Hence here i am thinking whether xlate-bypass is the issue here and implementing same with "ip verify revert-path" woud be a good idea.

My wife just bought a Dell XPS L502x. I cannot get it to connect to our wireless network without disabling the route security completely. Even then it is slow.
Dell XPS L502x
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
6 GB RAM
Intel Centrino Wireless-N1030
Our router is a Linksys Wireless-G 2.4 GHZ WRT54GL
I am aware of the PSP issue and have turned off the option to allow the computer to turn off the adapter and have set the power settings to the highest settings for both battery and plugged in. I have messed the routers security and the computer will not connect unless I turn off the security entirely. It connects but is slow. Anything else and it will not connect at all. Regardless, it can always detect the network without a problem and shows signal strength of Excellent (full bars) even when it is running slow. It works great on a cable or with a wireless usb adapter. I am positive that I am entering the password correctly as i have done this many times now. All other wireless devices in the house connect without a problem including her old Dell laptop.I have updated all the drivers (including the adapter) and keep current on all the Windows updates.when I run the ipconfig /all it lists all my wireless adapters and the blue tooth as "media disconnected". Not sure if that is referring to not being connected to the network or something else.

I just set up a brand new LinksysE4200 router at one end of my home, and a Linksys RE1000 range expander at the other end in order to provide full WiFi coverage to my entire house. Everything is working great except for one important detail.. There is currently no way to disable SSID broadcast on the RE1000 range expander! I just flashed it with the latest firmware (v1.0.01 build 2, Jul 22, 2011) , but I'm still unable to disable it, even though it is disabled on the E4200 from which it's receiving the signal it's rebroadcasting. I am seriously considering returning the RE1000. Linksys. add the ability to disable SSID broadcast on the RE1000 in a (not too distant) future firmware upgrade! As far as I'm concerend, this is a MUST HAVE feature in order for this product to even be considered for use in any sensitive network environment.

I've had the wireless G adapter for a year now, and connections work with both 2.4GHz and 5GHz G connections. I just bought a wireless N adapter (2.4GHz and 5GHz capable), and cannot get an N connection.. On 2.4GHz it connects to G only. And on 5GHz, I don't even see the whole band to connect to it.
I've tried disabling the 5GHz band on the E3000, then even setting the 2.4GHz band to no security. I still get a G only connection.My laptop can connect to 2.4GHz and get 144Mbps N speeds.Router is at latest firmware.I've researched this online, but can't find anything concrete.

I have a RV082.I need to disable the firewall, since firewalling is done better elsewhere.However disabling firewall Remote management on wan ip is forcefully enabled.I don't need Remote management, keeping it enabled is a security risk for my setup.I don't understand the rationale behind the choice to forcefully enable remote management if firewall is disabled.Is there a way to disable both firewall and remote management?Or at least a workaround?
I'm on firmware 2.0.0.19-tm on a probably v2 hardware. (Cannot find this info in the web configuration).This is not the newest even for v2 hw but I cannot afford to break it trying to upgrade the firmware.Moreover no release notes for firmware releases refers to a correction of firewall/remote management behavior.Is this behavior also in newer firmware releases?

Im running 8.3 on a 5505. We've got a few ssh tunnels originating from inside to some place on the internet. It seems these tunnels are closed every n minutes. I've seen two recommendations for altering the timeout values, and what I am interested in is infinite timeout (0) for these SSH tunnels.
Suggestion 1, alter timeout "conn". Default is 30 minutes, but I suspect this might have a negative impact because no inactive connections would be closed, ever. If it however is recommended to alter, how to set it to "0" (off/unlimited)? timeout conn 1:00:00 half-closed 0:10:00 udp 0:02:00 icmp 0:00:02
Suggestion 2, enable a ssh class map which explicitely set the timeout for the ssh connection. Is this recommended? How would I achieve unlimited time? And what about random-sequence-number disabled as seen below, is that really recommended?
class CLASS_MAP_SSH
set connection random-sequence-number disable
set connection timeout idle 48:00:00 reset
set connection decrement-ttl
