I have a major wired network issue.It manifests itself as not being able to print to my two home network (wired) printers and speedtest upload test fails.I can disconnect the ethernet cable from the failing desktop and plug it in to a laptop and everything works fine.I have tried disabling AVG firewall.
View 2 RepliesI have walked into a company that has several small (1-4 PC's each) remote locations, and they all connect to Terminal Server to use our POS app. This app will not keep redirected printers saved between each session, so in order to save the printers, they have software VPN's set up on each client, then the local printers are installed on the server through a Local Port using the VPN ipaddressprinter share name. This allows the printers to be saved in the program and not re-assigned each session. Now, let's say that I have implemented a new desktop replacement procedure, and we are now in phase one of said procedure. I have purchased Windows 7 64-bit desktops. After setting up my deployment standards and testing in-house, I placed one of these PC's in the field. This is where I learned the issues of printing from a 32-bit server to a 64-bit client. I have not been able to successfully print to the printer installed on the server using the Local Port of the client, print job errors out. I have done some research, and found the issues with printing from 32-bit to 64-bit, and have installed all the additional drivers I can find, with no success.

The error with FTP or TFTP is
% Error: Webauth Bundle file transfer failed - Unknown error - refer to log
I've tried to copy the unmodified bundle from the zip and get the same error so I don't think it's the login.tar file.
I have a home network running all Mac computers (though can run Windows VM if necessary) and a pair of USB printers. The wireless router and cable modem are in one room, but the printers are in another. I'd like to find the most practical way to add the printers to the local wireless network without sharing them from a computer. I've tried that for a while, but don't want to leave a laptop connected 24/7 just to enable wireless printing (rather defeats the purpose of a portable computer). I don't have any wired network lines in the home, and am not excited by the idea of running any cables.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working to find a new printer on a network. The new printer has the exact same name as another printer in the network? How do I assign a PC to default to the correct printer. It is a very active office so the trial an error thing sometimes takes a long time and also is frustrating because every time I install a new PC to the network (which is often) I run into the same problem over and over again. So how to I get the IP Address of the networked printer? How do I use the IP Address when assigning a new computer?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am configuring a few new computers for an office and I would like to rename the printers we have here. There are 2 printers at the front desk that have confusing combinations of numbers and letters for names and I would like to name them something like "front desk color" or "front desk b&w". These computers are connected to a network and accessable from 10+ computers.
View 1 Replies View RelatedA weird issue that came up a couple weeks ago, about 15 users that print to network printer via IP. The printer is attached to a print controller with all print jobs are spooled to.
So when a user prints, lets say three pages, it spools to the windows queue and each page takes about 1.5min to get to the print controller queue, when it would only take a few seconds to spool.
Different switches, print drivers..etc have been tried and narrow it down to one thing. When working with the NAS server plugged into the switch, that's when it takes long but when unplug from the NAS, prints come out fast like normal.
how to find out if the NAS is broadcasting some crazy traffic? but it seems that it's only affecting this printer, other printers that don't have a controller print out fine and fast.
I am on BrightHouse cable internet and running a Netgear WGT624 v3 wireless router and WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK. Computer1 is the only computer on the network at present and is connected via CAT5 cable. No wireless computers here are turned on.If I enable wireless radio, my SpeedTest (www.speedtest.net) is consistently 2- to 3 Megs slower than when wireless is turned off. I have run this comparison over a dozen times spread out over about a 14 hour period.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a cable wireless router in the ground floor lounge and have set up a home wireless network. In the upstairs study we have two desktop computers connected to the router via the wireless network. I have a laptop computer used around the house and garden which also uses the wireless network.A laser printer and an inkjet printer are both connected to one of the computers in the study via USB and are shared with all computers.This means that the computer with the printers connected must by running if anyone requires prints. Both printers have USB and Ethernet ports – but running a network cable to the router downstairs is impractical.Is there a way of connecting the printers directly to the network and leave them powered up so they can be used by any of the computers. I am hoping that there is some extra hardware that will enable me to do this perhaps via wireless.Or – would it be possible to use mains Powerline Network adaptors – with one adapter connected by Ethernet cable to the router and other adaptors connected by cable to each printer.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a home network and I need to connect 3 USB printers. I was searching online and I'm not sure if I needed a network switch, a USB network hub, or a multiport print server. I need all 3 PCs to be able to access any printer.
Here's what I have in mind. I'm just not sure what hardware I needed (red outline). The cheaper the better. Oh and I don't want a 24/7 PC running as a server.
I've tried scanning for viruses, using winsock fix (they had a static ip I also set to automatic since they should not need it). I just turned off the firewall as well, tried "selective startup" and unchecked "load startup items" and nothing has worked so far. We're working on giving them another computer but I'd like to know why this happens.

While hardwired, I added the printer to my laptop. When I am at the office, either wired or wirelessly, I can print to the printer. When I try to print from home, the printer never opens, it is unable to connect. Is there a way to access a network printer when logging in remotely through VPN?

View 2 Replies View Relatedevery once in awhile we have a machine that seems to just lose the ability to access network shares and networked printers. The way I have been "fixing" the issue is to join a workgroup temporarily and restart computer and rejoin the domain.
I understand this is probably not the best fix available, but I am not sure what is causing the problem and/or what a better solution to this problem is.
why this happens and how best to solve this without just rejoining the domain?

Everything worked as usual afterwards, until I found out I could no longer print on my printer. I can access the printers web interface through the ip adress, change settings and such through the browser, but the printer has offline status in windows and print jobs never leaves the print queue in windows. I tried deleting the printer in windows (tried both windows 7 and 8) to reinstall it.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have an e4200 set up using a trendnet TEW-684ub. Connection on 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz seems fine, but when the 5Ghz network is under load, such as running speedtest, the network drops for a second. This does not appear to happen on the 2.4Ghz network.
2.4Ghz and 5Ghz networks are set to Auto width and channel using WPA2 and I've tried raising the router up a bit to increase airflow to try to eliminate overheating as a possible issue. I'm also running the latest firmware...1.0.0.3, I believe.
I have an annoying problem with networked printers disconnecting/disappearing when TS users logoff. Current configuration is: SQL server (WinSvr 2K8 R2 Std) has printers installed on it (standard TCP/IP Port) and printer is shared, there are also some printers installed on the DNS server and a couple of satellite offices. Users connect to TS servers (WinSvr 2K8 R2 & WinSvr 2K3) printers are connected and work fine until they logoff, when they log on the printers are gone "sometimes some printers are still there!?" I have tried logging onto the server as domain administrator and connecting printers but they won't even stay for administrator (have had this with win7 client machines) and tried directly 'console' at the server. I have looked at the printers on the SQL server and sharing properties, it is stoping printers from coming back at login on TS Note that local (client machines) connecting to the same shared printer from the SQL server don�t have the problem it's just on the TS server.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an office with only 5 workstations running XP Pro and Win7.. Connected to a domain server running SBS2003. We have a network printer (Konica Minolta Bizhub C253) that everyone prints to. The problem is that it takes nearly 2 minutes just to print even a Windows test page.. All of our workstations use Terminal Services to log into the server.If we print from the local side- it goes right through with no issues. Printing through terminal services takes too long. Is there a simple way to fix this? We have just a basic 12 port switch connecting everyone, I've tried replacing that and I still have the same issue. I've made absolutely sure that its nothing simple, like a driver or connectivity issue.
View 3 Replies View RelatedFirst discovered this problem because I was unable to connect to a particular web site that was functional according to a friend that I was talking to on the telephone while trying to connect.
Problem: Network UPLOAD speed is randomly reduced from 2Mb to 600Kb while download speed seems unaffected (Abt. 30 to 50Mb). First eliminated the router, modem and cables as suspects working with ISP tech support. CAT 5 cabling to router and cable modem. Then I discovered that another machine on the network did not have this problem. I then discovered that disabling the network and re-enabling the network cured the problem.....temporarily. Downloaded and installed latest NIC driver from MB web site. No solution. Downloaded and installed latest NIC driver from Realtek web site. No solution. Updated MB BIOS. No solution.
MB= Asus M5A97 EVO
CPU: AMD FX-4100
OS: MS Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1 (Latest updates)
RAM: 8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 802MHz (11-11-11-28
NIC on MB Realtek PCIe GBE
Disabled TCP/IPV6. No solution. I suspect it is one of the "Advanced" settings for the Realtek PCIe GBE, but I don't know what they do. Anytime I disable and re-enable the network adapter my upload speed returns to normal. I haven't been able to isolate a particular action that causes the slow-down. The attached pics show speed test, before and after disable - re-enable network adapter. Same server.
I've got a 200mbps down/100mbps up fiber connection at home. When I do a speedtest I get around 192mbps down which is more then enough. However my problem lies around my upload speed, but only on ONE computer.
