Windows XP Professional - Cannot Connect Work Computer To Home Internet
Jun 15, 2011
I was recently given a computer from my workplace. I took this computer home, and put it in the place of my old one. The internet connection on my old computer has always been fine; all cables are connected correctly. However, this computer from work will not connect to the internet. The icon in the bottom right corner of the screen states that I am connected, but the internet browser claims that it is unable to display web pages. May the cause of this be related to any unique computer settings that a workplace may have on a computer in their network? Other computers have no problem connecting to the internet through the same, wired connection. The OS is Windows XP Professional.

I'm operating on a windows XP operating system (home computer)and having problems connecting to the internet. My router and modem are working fine as I am able to connect to the internet by using my laptop. I had McAfee on my computer and after reading the problems associated with it, uninstalled it. But after un-installation, I am
still unable to connect to the internet.

I recently was given an old computer from work. I tried to connect it to the internet at home but it wouldn't connect. The icon at the bottom shows that it is connected but the web browser shows that i'm not connected. All the computers at work are connected to a network so there may be some settings that won't allow it to connect at home. I did go on to internet options under connections and changed the default connection from the work network to broadband but still no luck. None of the proxy boxes were checked either. The OS on this computer is Windows XP. Also, all connections to my home internet are fine.

I have several different computers that connect to my home wifi connection through my router and they are either Windows Vista or Windows XP. This is the only Windows 7 I think or maybe not, I have a new little mini that has Windows 7 I think, however, I am not able to get this computer to connect. I have unplugged the modem, unplugged the router, restarted my computer, checked my wifi connection and no matter what I do it will not connect.

I have a desktop and 2 laptops connected to a wireless router on my home network. I used to be able to get internet access on all 3 computers, but suddenly one day I can't get on the internet on my desktop. The 2 laptops have no problem getting on. I am at a total loss as to what to do. I am really good with computers, but networking is all new to me

this is something that's been bugging me for quite a while now.At home I use both a laptop and a PC connected to the network through a wireless router.I get my internet from Comcast and so far am very happy with the speed etc. The router is now 4 years old (Linksys).The thing is that I cannot download certain things at home (no firewalls) but when I take the PC to work,I can download them without a problem.The programs I'm referring to is usually Microsoft related programs (Outlook connector, Silverlight etc...). When I try downloading, it opens a small ie window with an error message, and at the next step it says link is broken.

I have an old computer that is Windows 98SE. It uses a dial-up connection, but I don't have a phone line anymore so I've been trying to find another way to connect it to the internet. I've tried connecting it to the internet by connecting it to my Linksys wireless broadband router but that doesn't do anything. I also have a wireless notebook adapter that I've also tried to use but the driver needs to be reinstalled or updated and I don't know how to do that. I've lost the installation disk that came with it also. Do I need to buy anything to make it work?

Is there a driver available yet for the External Dell Wireless card (model number D1450U) yet on Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64? I guess the better question is if there is a 64bit driver available for the external card yet?

I cannot get my home sharing to work with my Win7 PC - specifically my library does not show up on the ATV2 computers section. I have done all the proper setup (me thinks):
- turned on home sharing on the pc and put in my password
- tried the done button "fix" to keep home sharing in the tree active....
- unplugged the apple tv and router multiple times....
- turned home sharing on and off in the ATV2 menu
- Itunes is permitted in the win 7 firewall page
Router - Dlink DIR-665.I decided to run an Ethernet cord across the floor and plug the atv2 in directly and within about 30 seconds my computer appeared and things were fine. I unplugged it allowing it reconnected to my wifi router it vanished.

I finally was able to connect two of my computers up to share files. The only problem is My Win7 computer can't see the xp computer although the Xp can see the Seven. When I first set it up Explorer showed the name of the Xp but when I clicked on it the dialog said it couldn't find the computer. The Xp name was in all caps and when I checked on the Xp the name was all lower case so I tried to change the name. When I tried, the OK button was grayed out so I went in to So I clicked on More and was able (I thought) to change the name there. I had to reboot and when I did the computer had just appended the DNS entry I had to give to the original lowercase name.
I was finally able to rename the XP computer! I changed the name to NETBOOK all caps like I had originally thought it was. BUT it makes no difference to the Win7 machine it still can't see the XP machine. I did a refresh and the Xp's name NETBOOK showed up But I am still back where I started from because when I click on it a dialog box just says that it can't access ||NETBOOK.

we are using Cisco VPN client to access our corporate network.I have 5 new notebooks Dell Latitude E6410 OS Windows 7 Professional x64, with identical hardware configuration.I downloaded Cisco VPN Client 5.0.07.440 (64 bit) and installed it on all notebooks. It works fine on 3 notebooks, while on 2 notebooks the VPN connection fails with error:
Secure VPN collection terminated locally by the client.
Reason 403: Unable to contact the security gateway
We use a smartcard for VPN access (etoken from Aladdin)
Here an extract from Cisco log:
Cisco Systems VPN Client Version 5.0.07.0440Copyright (C) 1998-2010 Cisco Systems, Inc. All Rights Reserved.Client Type(s): Windows, WinNTRunning on: 6.1.7600...Sev=Info/6 CERT/0x63600026 Attempting to find a Certificate using Serial Hash....Sev=Info/6 CERT/0x63600027 Found a Certificate using Serial Hash....Sev=Info/6 CERT/0x63600026 Attempting to find a Certificate using Serial Hash....Sev=Info/6 CERT/0x63600027 Found a Certificate using Serial Hash....Sev=Info/6 CERT/0x63600026 Attempting to find a Certificate using Serial Hash....Sev=Info/6 CERT/0x63600027 Found a Certificate using Serial Hash....Sev=Info/4 CERT/0x63600015 Cert (cn=<omissis>,ou=Remote,ou=Users,ou=<omissis>,dc=it,dc=<omissis>,dc=local) verification succeeded....Sev=Info/4 CM/0x63100002 Begin connection process...Sev=Info/4 CM/0x63100004 Establish secure connection...Sev=Info/4
[code]......
It seems the problem is in the certificate, but I verified and Cisco client says it's ok. It's also the only valid certificate in MMC->Certificates->Personal.Furthermore, also using other smartcard (etokens) of other users it doesn't work.

I want to use this adapter on a computer with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OS.Downloads lists versions V1.0 and V3.0 for this adapter. How can I determine the version I have?V1.0 list no driver for Win 7 64bit. V3.0 list a driver for Win 7 64bit.Research I found looks like the adapter is not computable with Win 7 64bit.

I have a laptop that I take to work, and would like to set things up to use my home internet connection from elsewhere. I don't have another computer to function as a server for me at home, so would like to do it so that my router alone provides this access (log into it from the internet anywhere and use my internet as if I am using it from home). How would I go about doing this? Would it require installing new firmware?
