I've previously had a desktop and laptop both running XP and happily sharing on a network. I've upgraded the desktop to Windows 7 and now the network won't work properly. My XP machine can recognise the Windows 7 although access is denied when I try to go into the files (I have set the appropriate sharing settings on Windows 7).
View 10 RepliesThis past weekend I went out of town and took my Windows 7 laptop with me -- since I returned home, it has been unable to connect to my wireless network. Other devices in my home connect to the network just fine, and the problem laptop has always been fine until now. My network card is an Atheros AR9285, and I'm attempting to connect to a Medialink router with WPA password protection and AES encryption.My wireless network icon in the task bar has a yellow sign with an exclamation point in it. It says "No Internet access."

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an old XP machine with many useful but obsolete programs and history.I have a new Win 7 HP (home premium) HP Slimline.I have a KVM switch allowing me to control each independently through one keyboard and mouse.I have several external drives, DVD drives and a wireless mouse hooked to the W7 by USB.Each computer is wireless connected to Internet via a Verizon MIFI2200 (essentially a G3 mobil phone).I have no other suitable optioons for internet available in my rural area.I ran the network setup wizard on the XP and saved a copy to thumb drive problems:
1. The W7 computer won't recognise the setup.
2. The XP doesn't show the network I set up although no errors showed up.
3. Win 7 has removed any wizard and other programs from HOME PREM for setup a network.
4. I attempted to set up the W7 manually but it refused too alllow both computers to independently use the MIFI2200.I find all hardware works fine the way I now have iit configured, but I want to move files from old to new PC and I need printer sharing until I get organized. I also need access to an external drive to backup files and general storage from both compputers.
I have Windows 7 running on my laptop and XP running on my desktop and I am trying to Network both PC's. I have carefully followed the instructions at the following site http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windo...dows-7-and-xp/ and Network discovery has been 'turned on' on my laptop but when I go to 'Network' on my laptop I cannot see the desktop XP PC. Is it first necessary for me to set up a login password for the desktop XP PC to see the PC on the Network, from the instructions I thought this was only necessary for the Network to remain enabled ie when PC's are restarted?

View 8 Replies View RelatedLast week my laptop would connect to the wifi just fine but just a couple of days ago when ever I try to connect it to the wifi it just gives me the "windows cannot connect to network" error message almost immediately. What really stumps me is that the three iPads (school provided) in my house and my sisters laptop all connect to the wifi but my laptop It may have something to do with the fact that I started a homegroup so I could print stuff from my laptop and that the password for the router was changed to something easy a couple of days ago by my sister to make it easier to connect from her iPad?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm staying with friends who have a router connected to their modem, which is connected to a computer.Three other computers connect remotely via wireless, including mine, which is the farthest from the connection. I have a so-so USB wireless that gets the job done, but isn't anything special. This morning I came home to find my connection was very laggy and spotty. I rebooted the modem and router,which reduced me to no internet connection at all. I removed the adapter, plugged it back in, then rebooted. Nothing. Since then, I've reinstalled the adapter's software twice, gone into safe mode and back out, have verified the USB port is working, and removed the device from device manager. And I've seen everything on my status from the yellow yield sign to the unplugged icon symbolizing no adapter period, even when the adapter is plugged in.All other computers have access but mine. Just before writing this, I remove the connection settings and reentered them. The connection asks me for the key, I put it in, and receive "Windows could not connect to <the network>. I receive that even if I intentionally put the key in wrong. No "key is incorrect" or "please reeneter" just "windows could not connect." My wireless adapter's settings verify that there is signal. There was a thunder storm today, and I'm mentioning it, but feel insofar as my computer is concerned, it may be a red herring.
I am at a complete loss. There's signal. The usb adapter's software has been reinstalled, and it's attempting to connect. I think the fact that it's not giving me any response about the key being incorrect may be the key to this solution, but I am at a loss.My friends insist that no changes have been made to the router or modem other than my resetting them.In the time between writing this and posting it, I unplugged my wireless adapter from the computer with the ailing connection, and went to another computer to continue researching. When I came back and plugged the adapter back in, it connected immediately for about 15 seconds and gave me just enough time to visit my home page (which updates regularly, so I know it wasn't a cache), then fizzled. Then the internet went to zero bars. I disconnected, reconnected, and got limited connectivity with the yield sign. I used the repair tool and got that orange "flame(?)" in front of the connectivity bars and hovering over it yielded "connections are available. Not connected." When I tried to connect again, I received the previous "Windows could not connect to <network>." Rebooted again and saw the yellow yield sign. Then red flame. Then windows cannot connect.

I am running embarq high speed internet. I also have a network printer that follows the route as the pc's but has its own port.I used to have the 2 pc's networked to share a folder on the xp machine. Came in one day, and now the shared folder cannot be located by the Windows 7 machine. I have tried to run setup wizard for network over and over and cannot get any results. I can map the drive on the xp machine but it doesnt show up on the 7 machine, or I am just not able to locate it under my computers.
I've spent the last 3 days trying to add my new Win7 laptop to our network. Not only hasn't that worked, but now even the XP computers aren't talking to each other ("ns etwork is inaccessible. You may not have permission ...")Here's what's on the network when it was working:
Desktop: Dell, WinXP Pro SP3, wired to network Laptop 1: Lenovo T43p, WinXP Pro SP3, both wired & wireless options (usually use wireless) Laptop 2: Dell, WinXP Pro SP3, ditto above
**All machines are running Norton 360, but even when I turn off the firewall, they're not accessible.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy home network was made up of a desktop running windows XP home (wired) and a desktop also running XP (wireless). I have recently added a desktop running Windows 7 (wireless) to the system. When I turn on the Windows 7 machine, it sees the other two machines and I use the files from them easily. But after the new machine has been on awhile, it does not see the other computers. (I can, however, still access the shared files on it (the Windows 7 machine) from the other desktop (haven't checked the laptop). If I power down the Windows 7 and then turn it back on, the other machines show up immediately. I've got them all named to the same workgroup and in the network settings in the control panel, I think that it is set to discover the network.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have my wireless router that gives internet to all my computers (4), each one having their own usb wifi adaptor. This part works fine, never had any issue with internet.Each of the computers also have its own GBE adapter but i wasn't really using them. Until now, i bought a switch and connected all 4 computers through rj-45 to the switch just so i could transfer files easier and especially much faster than through the wireless.This is where my problem is, the network works, i can see and transfer files just fine, the issue being, on each and every computer, the lan is considered as unidentified public network. I've tried everything i could think of, yet, nothing, i can't change the status of the lan connection.

Right now, they cannot browse each other by computer name, instead I have to type their IP addresses (for example: \192.168.2.5) in the windows explorer address bar, and then I can browse to their shared folders. And under "Network" (in Windows Explorer) each computer only displays itself, and not the other (unless I have already typed in the other's IP address, in which case it displays the other computer as the IP address).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having problems with any type of Network Card or Network USB adapter working with my PC running Windows 7. I had a LinkSys WMP54G PCI card working on this computer about a year ago as I was needing to use a wireless connection but then I didn't use it for 6 months. When I went to use it again, it wouldn't pick up connections at all.Thinking it was an issue with the card, I picked up a Edimax 7612UAn USB adapter thinking it should work out of the box. When I plug the USB adapter in, the standard Windows driver installation tries to run but an error message occurs stating "Device driver software was not successfully installed" accompanied by "Realtek RTL8191SU Wireless LAN 802.11n USB Failed". If I try to install the drivers manually, nothing changes and in Device Manager the following error message is displayed under Device Status "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)".
