How To Use ICS With 2 Wireless Adapters On Same Laptop
Nov 20, 2011
I had this working once before, but can't seem to remember how.Have a netbook running XP SP3 with a built in wifi. Added USB wireless adapter to connect to internet and was using internal wifi to connect to Netgear router. Used Network Config Wizard to set up ICS and everything was fine.Had a Win7 machine connected to Netgear and it got internet no problem.As a result of router reset, I had to go back and re-config everything. Now, Win 7 machine can't get internet
I have a new WUSB600n V2 Dual Band using Driver 3.0.1.0 on Windows Home Premium 32 bit. My problem is that whenever I put my laptop into sleep mode, upon waking it up I get a USB not recognized, and have to remove and reinsert by 600N device. Even if I log off before putting my laptop into the sleep mode. I'm fairly sure I have the latest driver update, but can't be sure.
I have a Sony Vaio Laptop VGN-NS20M and have rebooted it as had a few issues with it. Now the internet drivers have disappeared from device manager. The only thing there related to the internet is under modems. Which has nothing to do with the wifi or the ethernet port.So cannot connect via wireless or the ethernet. Seems strange both have failed. There is no ? or yellow! there, as there is no devices there.I have tried the drivers from the Sony website but they just do nothing, and the troubleshooting from the network icon just says Windows cannot find a driver for your network adapter.Its a dual boot laptop with Vista and Win7 and have the same issues on both OS.
... and made a fundamental mistake of uninstalling adapters hastily without looking into it. Now when I try to re-install the adapters, I'm running into difficulties. Specifically, I don't have the CD-ROM I originally must have used, and the following message is popping up: "Files Needed - The file 'atl02_2k.sys' on Atlansic Fast Ethernet Adapter Installation Disk is needed. Type the path where the file is located and then click OK." Unfortunately, I don't have any idea if there is a path where this is located, so installation cannot complete.
The reason I took this option to begin with was that the wireless connection on my laptop [Asus, Windows XP] was acquiring network address without ever connecting fully to the internet. I had previously tried another of other methods, such as manually entering an IP address, to no avail.
I need to have some (maybe four) virtual network interfaces, one face of them connected to my laptop and another face bridged to one of my physical network interfaces.How can i do that?Ive tried VirtNet and Microsoft Loopback Adapter but no success.
I have a linksys system WRT54G at home. I had no problems with the Linksys router until about a month ago when I decided to make it a secure network. I run three computers of the wireless router (1 desktp and 2 laptops) Since making the wireless network secure I can not connect with my business laptop IBM Thinkpad X40, but thother e computers work just fine.
This PC I am on refuses to work with USB wireless adapters of any shape or size. I have currently tried using 3 Belkin USB wireless adapters, both for 802.11g and 802.11n. I know there is no issue with the USB adapters as I have tried these in a friends computer of EXACTLY the same version of Windows 7 (64 bit Professional). I have tried simple changes, such as switching off Anti Virus and Firewall settings. I have also tried updating drivers, going through setups multiple times, restarting my PC more times than I care to count.The problem I am now facing is that the USB Wireless Adapter seems to be installed, according to the Adapter List in Device Manager, which is showing no Yellow Triangles in any lists, all seems fine there. No connections can be found, and it cannot be the range, as I am currently sitting in a built up area housing multiple connections that can be found from the same spot as where my PC is.
I am currently using a Belkin USB Wireless Micro Adapter Surf N150 ( url...), and I know that the USB adapter aforementioned is in no state of malfunction, as having used it on different machine.Using a Gigabyte M68MT-S2 motherboard and have had not USB troubles until now. I have never tried configuring my PC for wireless setup previous due to always having been able to connect through a wired connection up until now.
Have just received an AOL wireless modem; have a belkin wireless adapter for my PC (running Wndows XP) but doesn't give a reliable connection to AOL.Is there any specific adapter I should be using? Modem isSL 2680

My wireless stopped working. I had problems in the past, not sure how I got to work then. But the other day after handling the modem/router-combo, I guess it became unplugged. I plugged it back in and have not had wireless since. I turned off computer, restarted. My wireless network is not even listed. I can connect vie ethernet. No adapter is listed under Broadcom Wireless.
Im using my upstairs neighbors wifi with permission. It has no protection whatsoever but recently i havent been able to use it anymore, and they both just went on vacation yesterday. Their dad was there for a day or two before they all left, my assumption is he thought i didnt have permission and did something to prevent me from connecting without mentioning it before they left.Its full bars (its directly above me) but the router almost instantly doesn't respond when i try to connect. Did he mac filter my wireless adapters adress? I tried changing my mac address on my wireless adapter (aka, desktop, as it doesn't have a nic) but Tmac cant change it successfully. Tmac is able to change my laptops mac though, but even after doing so i still cant connect to the network.
Other issue - right now im using a crappy 2 bar connection called ddrtvap on my laptop. The laptop sitting right where my wireless adapter for the desktop would be and it connects fine, but my desktop cant connect to this network (it connects to the network, but no internet) while the laptop does just fine. Windows repair is super usefull as it tells me something is wrong with my adapters settings but gives no clue as to what.
I have a weird issue with my daughter's laptop. It will connect to the wired network, and give internet access, but it won't allow any connections via a wireless network adaptor.The laptop is on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.In device manager it says the wireless adaptor is working properly. The drivers are the latest. Down in the notification area it says "not connected - no connections are available". She has a wifi switch (Fn+F3) on the laptop, but switching it makes no difference. I have an old desktop pc that connects via a USB wifi dongle, so I plugged the dongle into the laptop. It installed without problems, but in the notification area it says the same thing, "not connected - no connections available" So now I'm thinking, "what sits between the network adaptors and Windows? How come it will connect on wired, but not wireless?"
This all started when I updated her Atheros wifi driver. From that moment on it wouldn't connect using wifi. I thought I had somehow physically broken the wifi adaptor hardware, so I bought a new one (a Killer n1202), but installing it made no difference. It's as though I have somehow altered the way that Windows communicates with any wireless adaptor.When I go to the command line and type "ipconfig /all", there is no entry for "wireless LAN adaptor wireless network connection", as there is on my other laptop.
I am running windows vista and have installed the software and windows sees the adapter and states it is working but when it searches for available networks it can't find any. How can I download the driver and install it?
I have a Packard Bell Laptop using Windows XP OS and doesn't have Wireless Connection. So long ago i bought a Linksys by Cisco Wireless-G Notebook Adapter WPC54G v.1.2 but didn't have time to set it up or use it for travelling conditions. A couple years later when i came back to check on the laptop, i noticed that i lost the setup CD. So i went on the Linksys website and looked for the driver the download. On the back of the Adapter(card) it says it is version 1.2. But this version is unavailable on the Linksys Website. I could only find v.1, 2,3,3.1 and 7. v.1 gives a driver of v3.1 etc... AND NOT VICE-VERSA.So first when i inserted the card into the slot , the PC didnt detect it. It only detected it rarely if i insert another driver (eg: USB..). And so a window would pop up to install but i didnt know what to do there. When i downloaded the v.1 driver from the website and installed it, it seemed not the detect the card either, it would just say searching for wireless, but that's it. It would keep searching for hours even when im next to the router.finally, only the Power led light on the card is lit up but not the "Link" led.
I have a Linksys WUSB54G version 4 adapter.My computer is running Windows XP, Service Pack 3, which is automatically updated at all times. I've been using the adapter for a year with no problems.
Suddenly, it's started loosing the connection to the Linksys router and locking up my computer so only a hard re-boot power-down will work.When it comes back up, some or all of my cookies are lost.
I've run several different security packages but no virus or other issues have been found.I've uninstalled the adapter and reinstalled it.Last time, following something I read on this site, I installed it without the Linksys software, just the drivers.
Just tried to setup my wireless adapter and after it tells me to plug in my adaptor I get.Wireless adapter setup requires that wireless connections are managed by Microsoft windows.
Error Description: Other Wireless Manager Model Name: AE1000 Operating System: WIndows Vista SP2 Software Version: 1.2.10104.2
I looked all over my computer I can not find any other wireless manager on my system nor could I find a way to enable or disable windows wireless manager.
After intalling AE1000 Driver, I was unable to connect to internet and Wireless network connection appeared disabled in my Network Connections folder. However it is shown to be Enabled in my Device manager screen. no matter what I do, I am unable to enable the connection and connect to internet (when tryiing to enable the connection, a enabling screen pops up, and times out. device still shown to be disabled/grey).
I made the following attempt trying to get this fixed.
uninstalling the deivce and reinstalling it. (doesnt work) uninstalling the device, restart and have the windows update install the device (the deviced was installed. however I am still not able to enable it) Disable & Enable TCP/IPv4 & TCP/IPv6 (doesnt work) uninstalling local Area connection and use wireless to connect (doesnt work) download driver from websit, and install it manually. (does not work) connecting thou CD. I was given a msg telling me to disable my 'other' wireless manager and use the windows wireless manager to connect (i have no idea i had 'Other' Wireless manager >.>) testing whither or not the same adapter works on another PC (it works...) Testing wither or not my router is not working... (well.. im typing right now... so it works...)
I have a Cisco WRT120N Router and a Cisco Valet AM10 wireless adapter. Almost every time the computer reboots, I loose my network and I have to redo the AM10 setup. The AM10 is the only device that loses the connection, my lap top and printer do not lose the connection.
Problem 2: Everytime I upplug and replug the AM10 a window pops up saying I need to check the drive for errors but none are found.
Problem 3: I downloaded the AM10 install program, Downloadable.Setup.AM10.1.2.10148.2. It does not work. If I try to run it Iget an error message that the setup canot be completed and to call in for support.
Problem 4: When I can get it working is shows that it is Wireless Connection 5. Why 5 and not 1? Where are the other 4?
I have a WUSB11 Wireless B and wonder if it accepts WPA2 security, I originally had my router set to WPA, and the wireless B worked fine, I have since changed to WPA2 and notice the Wireless B device won't connect.
I have been looking for a new wireless Card for my HP Pavilion dv9000 Laptop. When I inquired to HP Service they gave me a Part number: 441086-001 which translated to a Broadcom Wireless mini PCI 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN card (Intel, KDRN). This turned out to be an upgrade but only to Wireless "N-Draft".
I was hoping to get something in the Wireless "N" dual Band Certified etc. etc.. In other words something designed AFTER the Wireless "N" Standard was finalized in 2007 ( I believe)... tell me if Cisco makes a third Party Internal Wireless Card that will fit into my HP Pavilion dv9000 Laptop and bring the wireless capabilities up to current Standards....
my latency values are extremely high, sometimes millions(!) of microseconds. THe problem is always solved by disconnecting the 11b/g wireless LAN adapter, or the Intel(R) Gigabit Network connection. However, I can't work without internet.
I want to change router channels to avoid some interference. But do wireless adapters automatically identify the new channel or do I need to change those too?
When I get to the screen that asks for the the security password, and after typing in password then at the bottom their is a button for Back and one for Cancel. The button in the middle for Next is not highlited or clickable.
I run the CD setup disk and the driver install correctly.In the "Connecting the Adapter" screen I click next before connecting the adapter,the setup screen just close with out any notification and no icons on the system tray.I shut down the machine, insert the adapter and power on the machine,now I have the monitor icon and a wireless connection icon in the system tray (the Power led is green and the Link led isblink),when I double click on the monitor icon I got the following screen: no available wireless and the refresh, connect and manual setup are disabled.when I click on the "open the monitor" form the right click menu I got the following screen: also nothing to do on this screen.so I think it's was because I don't have any wi-fi around me, I shutdown the computer raise my wi-fi andrestart the machine, now the led in the same status but the system tray icons didn't appears and when Itry to open it from the menu it's run for few seconds without any screen and disappear.
I'm running Windows 7-64 bit. The AE1000 works great so far, in the one day I've had it, and it appears to start itself and connect when turning the computer on (unlike other people on here that I've seen). BUT, it's all pointless if I can't put my computer into standby. The adapter kicks it right back out as soon as I try to sleep the computer.
I've checked the device settings and "allow the device to wake the computer" is unchecked (in fact, it's grayed out). I rarely turn off the computer; I much prefer to just put it in standby. I don't want to have to unplug the adapter every time I do that.
I recently re-installed Windows on my PC, and I had the Wireless-G PCI Adapter installed before I done the re-installation.Now I've re-installed Windows, the adapter doesn't work. Do I have to re-do the whole process again? Also, I didn't actually install it myself, so any detailed step-by-step tutorial?
I'm at a new apt and I can't get Online with vista to download the driver so I've been trying to download it on a droid or iPhone and transfer the file any know any way to do this besides finding a cd? Can I make a cd at a friends house by downloading the driver online? Where can I get the driver?
I picked up a AE3000 for an older laptop, but it will not connect to any network. It is on an older (01') dell laptop running XP SP3. I have tried using the disk and downloading the latest drivers on-line but no luck. It picks up all the networks around me and mine, but it says trying to connect and just can't. I tried it on another laptop and everything works fine. Is there an issue with this adapter and the original USB ports or XP in general? I have checked and rechecked the passcodes, I have deleted all of the profiles and started from the beginning again. I removed my anti-virus program as well as the last effort. Nothing I do seems to make a difference though.This is just used to access the internet on a laptop that is dedicated to a telescope.
