View 14 Repliesthis 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.

The larger the file size the harder it is to complete and send. 0.5mb is easy to send but over 1-2mb is very difficult.When it stops I get this error message after a min or so.Sending of message failed.The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server smtp.googlemail.com timed out. Try again or contact your network administrator.Online: The exact same thing happens on Facebook and other websites uploading gets stuck and times out but does work sometimes.

how do i get it steady and decrease the time for the clients to receive the ip address, both lan and wifi.
Alright, so we have about six computers on average all on at the same time, working just fine, last night one of the laptops just, stopped working, saying there is no internet access, With every attempt it doesn't send any information. When I disconnect it from the wireless, then reconnect it, it immediately receives packets but won't send any.

I brought my router from home, and ive gotten it to send out my computer's internet connection, but it brings me to the school's registration page, which I can not use, since routers are not allowed. Is there a way to use my desktop's ethernet connection and send out that internet connection through my router (it also needs to bypass the school network, somehow fooling it that my router is my computer (im guessing))? I have 2 ethernet jacks on my computer by the way.
my desktop is picking up wirelessinternet, i have 2 avalible ethernet ports on it, is their a way i can plug an ethernet from my computer to my xbox to play online, i dont want to have a cable come from the router.

View 1 Replies View RelatedBasic info: SBS 2008 (64bit), XP-sp3 (32bit) workstations, gigabit switch, SEP. App is Sage Masterbuilder.Network config: Server is 1gb to switch over CAT6. All the workstations are 100mb over CAT5. SEP is set to exclude all pertinent files on both the server and workstations.Problem: The program is called MasterBuilder and does job costing and much more. In the job costing feature there is an option to "Compute" job costing. In version 16.x, when the "Compute" was performed the task was done very quickly. After an upgrade to version 17.x it is very SLOW. According to tech support, our network is at fault since it is a database function over the network.Troubleshooting done: Tech support blamed our network speed (100mb) and switch. We had a Netgear 100mb switch so we replaced it with a GB switch however the cabling will not support GB. Being a managed switch I set all the ports to 100mb except the server port. Even tried the server plugged into a 100mb port and no change. I am confident there are no speed issues on our network. All other programs perform flawlessly. ACAD, Exchange, data transfers and many other high data use programs work perfectly. I updated the network card drivers in the server as well. There are no performance or resource issues on the workstations. I monitored the network traffic at the workstations, server and switch with no issues and about 2.5% utilization during the slow "Compute" process. The switch shows no errors at all, no collisions, no dropped packets, nothing. I also disabled the SEP.
During testing and while the slow "Compute" was going on, I copied a large folder (400mb) from the server to the workstations see the impact on network utilization. As soon as I start the copy process the "Compute" process speeds up to normal and zips by as it should. As soon as I cancel the copy process the "Compute" drops right back to very slow.
I have network group set up for 5 computers and everything is okay except 1 computer, lets call it X, cant access files from computer, Y, but there arent problems with Y getting into X.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy parents bought a new computer today. My mom called me up today and asked me if I could transfer some stuff from the old computer to the new computer. I do not have a flash drive or an external hard drive, or jump drive.etc. So I was hoping I could just connect the two computers with an ethernet cable, and create a network.
Is this possible, or do you need additional equipment. I do not have a router, so if I create a network it has to be done with wires. So is it possible to create a network with nothing but an ethernet cable? Or is there another way I can get my moms i tunes transferred over?
I have a netbook or laptop or whatever those small computers are called which I use as a server (it just sits there with the lid closed all the time answering website requests).It generates logs but I absolutely hate laptops and can't stand them, not only is using a touchpad an experience from pure hell, but it's absolutely impossible to find buttons like home, end, page up, page down, so I can't manage to use it 5 seconds without wanting to smash it to powder.I know a lot about computers and programming but NOTHING about networking.Both the laptop or whatever it's called and my personal desktop PC are connected to the same router. Is there any way I can access the log folder on the server from my personal computer so I have a proper mouse and keyboard to work with?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to transfer files from my laptop to my desktop, but when I open the 'network' folder from the start menu to access the desktop from the laptop, the desktop computer is not shown. I ensured that the workgroup names are the same, all sharing is turned on on both computers in Network and Sharing Center, since it is a private network, I checked the router settings and nothing seems to be wrong. The desktop is running Windows Vista Business x86 and the laptop is running Windows 7 Home Premium x64, so there is no way to make a Homegroup connection. However, I can see the laptop computer from the desktop's network folder. I click on it to gain access, but I get an error message: "Network Error, Windows cannot access \****-PC, check the spelling of the name. Otherwise, there might be a problem with your network. Error code: 0x80070035 The network path was not found." have checked all wiring, router settings, and nic card settings, have done a successful ping, even Network and Sharing Center, I have also checked sharing permissions and permission levels, I see nothing that could possibly affect the access of the computers.
The only thing I can think of is that when I click on the 'Network ID' button under the Computer Name tab in System Properties on the desktop, it asks join a domain or workgroup, it will not let me save the selection "This is a home computer; it's not part of a business network," that may or may not be the issue, because it will only remain on "This computer is part of a business network" probably because I am running Windows Vista Business.

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy D-Link655 is 6 months old. Liked it so much that I bought one for my sister in-law, and my mother/father in-law. Whenever my son's Mac PowerBook Pro (latest Mac OS) is on the network (WiFi) the router intermittently stops working. It loses connection for both WiFi and Wired (at the same time). The intermittent issues seem to disappear when he disconnects the MacBook Pro.
-Current Firmware Version :1.32NA
-Current Firmware Date :2009/07/09
Perhaps it is coincidence, but it seems when the Mac is connected, the router fails every so many minutes (both WiFi and Wired). When the Mac is disconnected, the intermittent issues are gone.
Got a new EA6500 a few days ago and from the start it acts as if times out and goes to sleep. Any time I enter a URL i get a long pause then the website unavailable message... refresh a few times then suddenly it works fine. this is for both connected and wireless. Even when I have the Linksys Smart WiFi open, I'll get a pop-up message that no router connected, then it goes away and everything is fine. Sometimes the old Windows Network message pops up asking me to connect. Works fine once it's "ON", but always have to refresh page a few times to get it to wake up.
