I just got my computer back after a friend removed a few viruses from my HD. My computer won't get internet anymore. It's connected to the internet at 54mbs but there is no packet transfer at all. I've tried winsock commands and netsh commands with no avail.

OS: Windows XP Service Pack 3
ISP: Comcast
Antivirals: AVG (I run Spybot when I need to)
I have an Acer 7750G, running Windows 7,connected to our home network using a Dynex router. At the moment this is the only laptop in the house that is having problems with connectivity. Starting yesterday, it only connects intermittently. When I run diagnostics, it says the following problems have been fixed but it either solves the problem for a few minutes only or not at all: "Problem with wireless adapter or access point" or "Default gateway is not available".
IPV6 connectivity also shows 'no internet access' and sometimes IPV4 reports no internet. I've unplugged and rebooted the modem and router a few times but that hasn't solved the problem.
Edit: I ran troubleshoot again, and it says the following issue is not fixed: "Wireless Network Connection 2 does not have a valid IP configuration".
I use my desktop for streaming media throughout the house. I found it was causing lag for gaming most likely because it was taking up all the bandwidth for the router. We had a 2nd router laying around as well as a 2nd wireless adapter so we set up a 2nd network that was not connected to the internet for strictly media streaming.I attempted to change the network settings so the internet connection appeared as a public network so that streaming of media was hopefully diverted to the non internet wireless adapter.I want a faster way of transferring large video files from my laptop to my desktop. I recently bought a crossover cable to do this through direct connection.Both use the same user name and password as well as run the same win 7 pro however the desktop is the 64 bit version. I set up both ipv4 with the same addresses.When it has worked I am only getting a connection speed of just over 10mb and once I connect the crossover cable between the computers it knocks out my internet connection on the wireless card.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with my home network (diagram attached below). I sporadically lose connection between my Router and the devices behind the switch. I have replaced the Ethernet cable between the 2 so I don't think the problem's there. It will work for a week or so, then just lose the connection. I then try a combination of rebooting all of the devices on the network and/or unplugging and re-plugging the cable connections and sometimes that works. It's a relatively new router, but can a router be "underpowered" for pushing a signa
View 2 Replies View RelatedThere is a device which is connected to the PC via Lan. I have an exe file which is supposed to get connected to that device and perform some operations. However, the problem is, the exe file tries to connect to the local host ip address 127.0.0.1 and i cant change the ip since it's been coded.So, I'm wondering if i can use the device connection (which already has a different ip like 169....) as a local host connection. So whenever it tries to connect to the loopback 127... it automatically connects to the external device.

View 5 Replies View RelatedEvery time I start Windows XP, I see an icon of Internet connection being established, and then a connection error icon with a pop-up window. When I click on it, I see the connection window with a notification that no IP address has been assigned.In order to get an Internet connection, I have to click "repair" every time. I have downloaded and used TCP/IP and Winsock repairs without result. I use WIN XP SP3 and run updated Avira and Comodo. I am aware of damage left behind by deleted malware but don't know where to look.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have noticed a few times over the last month that my PC would not load pages due to connection problems. If I hover over the Network icon, it say that I am not joined to a network but within minutes, it reconnects itself. I use http://www.scan.co.uk/products/zyxel-pla-4201-500mbps-mini-powerline-adaptor-twin-pack power adapters and they "appear" to work well with good speeds as I download and game online alot. I have noticed that today the problem is really bad. It loses its connection every 5 or 10 minutes and then reconnects itself as if nothing has happened. I tried using my iphone on the wireless and it also seemed to have dropped out on connection. I have tried resetting my router too but with no joy
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a Win 7 laptop which keeps dropping its network connection. I have changed the power management option on the network card so it can't turn itself off, but it still goes to sleep after a certain amount of time.I've also tried with a different docking station and network cable in case that was an issue, but the same thing happens. Event viewer does not reveal the cause of the drops.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a print shop that runs several computers on one network off of a single adapter. Last week the boss and I went out of town for some off site training leaving a single employee in charge of holding down the fort. When we came back we ran into a whole slew of problems not the least of which being that one of our graphics computers doesn't seem to want to recognize the work network anymore. It seems like the employee who we left (who, of course, "didn't touch anything") must have disconnected the computer from the network and started a new one as it is connected to one simply entitled "network". The issue I'm running into now is that when I check the network list the work network is not showing up at all. I've checked and I can ping the other computers on that network, they are all connected to the same network adapter, I just can't seem to get this one computer onto the preexisting work network.

View 5 Replies View RelatedSo I've had this problem ever since I bought my computer. The only wireless connection that I am able to connect to, is the one in my home. If i travel anywhere else, my laptop refuses to let me connect. The thing is, my laptop sees the connections, but when I click "connect", the box closes and nothing happens. The laptop seems as though it doesn't even try to connect to the network. Everything remains the same, yet when I come to my house, it connects automatically. Now if I click "Add" on the network config. it won't even let me add a network to my computer or anything. I click the "Add" button and nothing happens. I am running a Windows XP.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to improve my connectivity,as the internet drops out a few times a day.Let me explain - I hope I'm correct in my assumptions.Every few hours, my PS3 will have a DNS error, and upon checking my iPhone, I notice that it's switched from wifi over to 3G and there seems to be a loss of connection. I cannot reconnect to the internet until I've restarted my router, or 'forgotten' and rejoined the network.
Additionally, we have an Apple TV, and connection drops out about 3 or 4 times every hour, which is very frustrating when trying to watch a movie.

I had this problem since I installed this game (GTA San Andreas). So, I found that it keep auto alt tab when I play GTA only. Not other game. When I restart, it is gone. and will occurs when I open GTA. So, i try to scan and delete the game and the problem fixed. Still, when I install FiFa 2011, it is also happening. So, I deleted the game but the problem didnt fixed. Well, I also download Sims 3. and when I play the game, I tried to remove my Tenda Wireless reader, then the auto alt tab is no more occurs. So, it seems like I have to play games without using internet. Which means I can't play online games. So, I am telling you guys that I am having problem with auto alt tab/ losing focus when playing game/using programs like google chrome. So, what should I do for know? I think it might cause of my Tenda Wireless Reader? I'll try to use wire into my wifi then.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been watching my PC-s HDD for months and I saw that something takes up way to much space, yesterday I checked and Windows said that I have 160 GB Free / 883 GB But when I selected all files in my E: even hidden files and checked their properties / size, it said its only 440 GB. So I was missing another 283 somewhere in this partition. I used the windows cleanup tool and it gave me back some of the space, but it wasnt 283 GB. I checked and checked, then I found a program called WinDirStat which shows you how much space you have and stuff, then I found this: [URL]Then I found out that WinDirStat cannot access the System volume informations and this unknown is that. Then I googled stuff up again and found this:
Code:
1. To see the space allocated and used for SVI:
- Open Command Prompt with �Run as Administrator� option
- Type in: vssadmin list shadowstorage
- You will see Used Space, Allocated Space and Maximum Space for SVI
2. To see the restore information stored therein:
- Use in the same console command: vssadmin list shadows
3. To resize the maximum allocated space:
- Type in command: vssadmin resize shadowstorage /on=[here add the drive letter]: /For=[here add the drive letter]: /Maxsize=[here add the maximum size]
- E.g., vssadmin resize shadowstorage /on=C: /For=C: /Maxsize=4GB
- You will see a prompt confirming resize done
- You can check the status again using the command discussed in point 1 above
4. Just to get rid of the space already consumed, but sticking to the same size of max-size as before:
- Do actions as per point 3 to set the max-size t, say, 1GB
- If you check now, most likely you�ll see that used space is now 0KB
- Do the resize again and set it back to what it was before
- Check your disk space availability in Windows Explorer, you should see the reclaim is done!I did what this guide said and it deleted the system volume information from my E: drive and I had my 440 GB back. BUT!At this part I HAD internet connection. I shutdown the PC, went to eat and do stuff, then I came back and got a blue screen right after the win7 logo (before the log in screen)I couldnt read what it said, because the PC restarted itself (even tho it is set NOT to restart so I can read the errors...wierd!)Then it started repairing itself, restarted, asked for a chkdsk, fixed millions of errors then restarted and I logged in just fine.But in the bottom right corner I seen a big ugly red X over my network connections, so naturally I went out my room, restarted modem and router then came back. Waited some mins, checked the modem and router again but they had internet. I started my sisters PC and her PC had internet.I checked everything I could, but I couldnt revive the internet, I cant join to any network (home, private, work) and I cant even see any. I only see dial up connections, hamachi and tunngle.Then I tried to resintall the driver. Deleted driver, restart PC, win automatically installed the nvidia driver for me, but still no internet. Then out of couriosity I started my Virtual PC (win xp) to check if it has internet connection or not. And it has! I am writing from the Virtual PC now.So the network card is working perfectly, no hardware damage.I googled stuff up again to find a solution and then I found this thread: Loopback Pseudo-Interface 1I did what it said there and my result was different:

Now this does work it gives me excellent signal but it keeps dropping the connection which is extremely frustrating when playing the xbox or on an online game on the pc.I contacted Netgear and all they suggested was updating the firmware

I recently upgraded my internet to a faster speed. I received a new router. I am able to connect my laptop via ethernet connection without any issues. I am able to connect my laptop wirelessly both at work and at school. I am unable to connect wirelessly at home. I can connect my stand alone computer to my internet connection. I am also able to connect my smart phone to this connection. When I attempt to log into the internet connection I enter the passphrase as instructed the entire screen goes blank and when I try to reconnect the computer is automatically entering a different passphrase and gives me a message "waiting for network" then it disappears and I am not connected - when I attemp to correct the passphase it will not store the new setting. I have tried updating the driver - changing the passphrase - restarting the computer, I have used the diagnostic check provided by Century Link and spent over 4 hours on the phone with them trying various things without any connection.
I can't connect to the wireless modem from most parts of my bedroom. I can connect to the modem from the hall next to my bedroom. Can't from my brothers bedroom, but can from my parents' bedroom. All using the same laptop. Once I connect to the modem, and move into one of the rooms where I can't connect, I do stay connected. I can ping the modem, but I get very high results (800-1500 ms), while I get 1-5 ms in other parts of the house. I only get extremes, good connection or very bad connection, haven't found anything in-between.I've tried changing the network channel (I've tried 1, 6 and 11), but that didn't work at all. I've been away from home a few days and these issues started while I was away. Nothing obvious changed in our house while I was away. Just that my sis got a new phone (but can a phone honestly be responsible for this?). And my laptop has found a new modem in the neighborhood. Previously everything worked fine. I had great internet all over the house. Something is just blocking the signal.

Is it the internet speed inconsistency or the 4 year old Belkin N Router?OK, so I tried to copy the information from the CMD window, but I can't get it to work. After I got the information and right clicked and clicked "select all" then what. I couldn't copy it. I can't find my way back to the instructions.
