On-board NIC Card Stopped Working?
Mar 3, 2013
I have a toshiba satellite laptop (windows 7) with wireless on-board and an ethernet cable port. Up until last night, both worked flawlessly since I bought the computer a few years ago.
Now, the wireless still works in three different locations I have tried (i.e. three different networks), but the ethernet cable will not work. I thought it was the ethernet connection on the mobo at first, but then after acquiring a USB-NIC connection, I found I had the exact same problem... I can't connect to my router or even direct to the DSL modem using a ethernet cable. I know my system is good since all my other computers (7) work with wired connections, and my laptop doesn't work on other cables on which other computers do. Essentially, it appears that my computer has lost the ability to get an i.p. address using an ethernet cable of any kind. Both the onboard card and the usb-nic cable tell me they are 'working correctly' in the systems/devices/network adapters section. I have tried disabling one while trying the other. I have tried disabling the wireless while trying either, and still nothing.

I Have a HP dc5000MT desktop. I run an ethernet cable from its network card {Broad NetXtreme Gigabit} to a Westell 327W router{this has worked for the last four years}. My laptop connects to the internet through this router using wireless and for test purposes through the ethernet port. I installed a new network card {Dynex DX-E102 PCI NetworkAdaptor}in the desktop. When i'm enabling either the old or new card through Control Panel, Network Connections, i get the message "acquirin network address,Firewalled".and it never enables. I ran Malwarebytes and no infections were found. I use AVG anti-virus and Internet Explorer.

I regularly get this message (but not everytime) when I start up Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit.
"Dell Wireless WLAN Card Wireless Network Controller stopped working and was closed.a problem caused the application to stop working correctly. Windows will notify you if a solution is available."
Then I get this following message:"Solution Found: Address a problem with your WLAN card.Your WLAN card has stopped working properly. This is a network adapter that allows your computer to connect to a wireless network. To find out if an updated version of your WLAN card is available, contact your device or computer manufacturer."The strange thing is even though I get this message I am still able to connect to the internet via a wireless network. So there is no problem as such it is just annoying to keep getting this message when Windows starts up.I have checked on the DELL Support website and I do have the most up-to-date driver already (Or I think I do).
The message refers to my:
Dell Inspiron 1520, Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-Card (with driver version 4.170.25.17)

Having the same problem with a Dell Inspiron Laptop using a belkin pcmcia wireless card. It was working, but has stopped doing so. I was missing some network adapters which I have reinstalled, and the hard wired connection is now working again, but wireless will not get past the acquiring network address phase. I tried the ipconfig /all and it shows my IP address as 0.0.0.0 and the same on the subnet mask. it says the autoconfig is enabled and dhcp is enabled. My HP laptop is connecting to the wireless network just fine.

I walked in to the room and my 1 year old daughter was carrying my laptop. I turned it on and now I no longer have the option to connect to wireless networks. It's like the computer doesn't recognize a wireless card. I have an old dell with windows xp. At first thought I figured that she may had dropped it and dislodged the card, so I took the cover of the slot off and everything seems to be in place. The wireless card is a broadcom.

It didn't fill it up completely, it stopped at the 200 meg free mark, however I have cyclic checked (which btw is not mentioned anywhere in the manual). I assumed this option would cycle by deleting the oldest file to continue recording.

I have tried a lot of drivers and even tried installing Vista 64 bit drivers (something that worked for someone in some thread), but it won't work.The adapter is recognized by the computer, but the smart wizard won't launch.

My router has been working for close to 4 years now with minor problems, just stopped yesterday, All my PCs lost wifi access and then when I looked at my Linksys WRT300N only the 4 Ethernet port lights were on. Unplugged plugged it again, I connected one of the PCs to the one of the Ethernet port, the PC is reporting that there is nothing connected to the other side. It's been 4 years already, I do have a Linksys wireless G router even older than this which is till working. I guess its spoiled, I don't mind replacing it

I have been using a d-link router for some time now and since yesterday it has stopped working ( I have an orange 'world' light on all the time) After looking around this site I have tried resetting etc and nothing works. If I plug the ethernet cable into the modem I can get on the internet if I plug the cable into the router then nothing. These are the details I got from the config all when I plugged the ethernet into the router.

Randomly my router stopped working in the middle of the night. I didn't think the issue was with the router so i called the Tech Support people from Brighthouse and they told me to connect directly to the modem so i did that and I had internet. But why would my router randomly stop working, I've had this Linksys Dual N bound router for a year and never had a problem with it. I want to think that its the internet providers fault but I guess I really don't know.

I currently own a Sony Vaio Laptop that has been working fine for the last 2 years, I was happily on facebook when all of a sudden, my laptop started lagging massively and it disconnected me from wifi, I was shocked to find that when I tried reconnecting, the laptop decided to stop working for a second and my wifi stopped working completely, every time I disconnect the Ethernet cable from my laptop even though my wireless switch is on, it won't even pick up my Virgin Media superhub I have about 5 meters from my laptop, it indicates that there is NO wifi anywhere, just the ascending bars with a big red X on it

My desktop was wirelessly connected to a router. It was working perfect, I did a wired connection from the modem to the desktop and when I tried to get the wireless connection again it has not been possible. When I try network trouble shooting I get DNS server might be unavailable. Been reading around and tried many of the things that I've read but none has worked so far.

I have been a loyal customer of a hosting company for over 10 years. The main reason I have a dedicated server is to eliminate those shared-hosting issues.For the past 4 years the service has been getting crappier. In fact; this week alone the ftp stopped working, mysql stopped working, and email.It is now to the point I have to move all my domains, mssql databases, mysql databases, email servers and countless files.I have been contemplating to set up my own dedicated server (Mac) and hook it up to my ISP. Most of the websites I host are local - only one or two are national/international.

I recently reinstalled Vista on my Dell laptop.Before that,I could view and open shared files on my XP desktop, although the PC couldn't see the laptop.Now, I can get online, but can't see the PC in Network places.I've ensured both have same workgroup name.I think it may be due to Norton Internet Security,which I've renewed and reinstalled from new disk.But the former one didn't prevent file-sharing, albeit one way,XP to Vista.Before I uninstall Norton again, is there anything else I should have done after Vista reinstall ?

My Linksys router stopped working. Resetting it didn't restore it.I bought a new Linksys E4200 router and configured it to the same settings as my old router. However, now I can't access certain website like Hotmail, Facebook, a weather site and others.But I can connect to most other websites, stream video, etc. Any suggestions why I can't connect to Hotmail, Facebook, etc???? I have 4 computers (3 wired, 1 wireless) connected through the router and they all do the same thing.

My router suddenly stopped working yesterday and I've tried everything I can think of to fix it. I have one computer wired directly in to it and a few laptops that use wireless connections.The power LED and the internet LED light up, but the status LED and the WLAN LED do nothing. Pushing the factory reset button on the back doesn't seem to do anything.Can't connect to the router site (192.168.0.1) The internet works fine when I plug in to it directly, so its definitely the router.

I used the wireless adapter (Netgear - WG111v3) on my computer for weeks without any trouble at all. (At the time i installed it, I remember I found out it didn't work/didn't work well on windows 7 so I downloaded some driver or something -- Don't really remember -- and it worked fine.) Suddenly, today, it stopped working. I have tried a lot of drivers and even tried installing Vista 64 bit drivers but it won't work. The adapter is recognized by the computer, but the smart wizard won't launch.

My computer stopped being able to Remote Desktop to my server on my network. My backup software also doesn't recognize my server. But, I can access its folders using Windows Explorer. Any other PC on the network can remote desktop to the server and connect. What happened to my machine? This message appears when i try to connect: "Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer for one of the following reasons:
1) Remote access tot he server is not enabled
2) The remote computer is turned off
3)The remote computer is not available on the network
Make sure the remote computer is turned on and connected to the network, and that remote access is enabled."
My computer is:
AMD: Athlon 64 X2 5200+ 2991 MHz
Mobo: Gigabyte M57SLI-S4 v.2
RAM: 4GB Mushkin DDR2 PC2-6400

"Ethernet Connection has stopped working".Its stopped working again and I've run the Network Test and the results are in the file REG.txt attached. I can connect to the internet via wireless OK but I had wireless turned off to run this test.I've proven the ethernet cable OK by connecting another pc to it which works OK.

I built my desktop, installed the ethernet drivers, and a week goes by no problems. All of a sudden the internet stopped working so i reinstalled my ethernet driver and no internet still. So to make sure it wasn't the ethernet cord i plugged it into my xbox and xbox live came up.

My wireless router stopped working. diagnostics messages say it could be either bad ethernet cable (not the problem as I am using the cable right now to plug directly in to cable company modem to gain access to internet) OR "drivers not being recognized"

My DIR-655 wireless has stopped working after a few years of flawless operation. It still works for wired operation. I was running Firmware 1.21, tried rebooting, resetting to factory, powered off the unit, etc. without success. Decided to Upgrade to the firmware to 135 NA, still no success. I am in British Columbia on Shaw Cable. On the Status Page under Wireless LAN, the Wireless Radio shows "Init failed".

I've had the dir655 for about a year now, and no problems at all, until about a week ago. I went into a couple of online games (Bad Company 2 and World of Tanks) and would have a low ping showing in the game, but every 10-15 seconds, especially in areas with a lot of action, I would get large amounts of lag, making the games unplayable.I would be unable to move or keep getting 'teleported' back 20 feet. I looked into it maybe being the servers, steam in the case of bad company, or my internet provider, but regular internet actions are not affected at all. After searching for a while tweaking settings, turning off antivirus and firewalls, it made no difference.I finally today plugged my modem directly into my pc instead of leaving it on wireless, and all the problems go away. All packet tests and connection tests to my router have come back with no errors. Again, I have never had a problem just browsing the web or watching videos, and usually get more speed on speedtest.net than my provider even advertises. I also upgraded the router firmware.I tried going into my router settings and doing all I could (as I understand it) to have exceptions, port forward, and even did the one thing (can't remember what it's called) where you add one ip address that will have no limitations put on it by the router, and none of this has made it work.

I have a Dlink DIR-615 wireless router that up until a few days ago was working perfectly. Then I had to turn it off at the wall before a storm and it has stopped working. I have tried resetting it with no luck. I am able to get internet try to get onto on my desktop without the router.I have tried to connect to 192.168.0.1 it won't let me. I can't get on there with an internet connection either. As soon as I connect the router the default gateway disappears. [code]

All other devices are working fine using the same wireless including a dell Inspiron laptop. I installed Intel WiFi driver version 15.2.0.19, A02, flushed the dns, but cannot get it to work.

I've been happily using a desktop PC wired into a router (using an ethernet cable) as well as a laptop that connects wirelessly to the router. This setup has been working fine since I started with it a few weeks ago.
On Friday evening the desktop PC stopped being able to connect to the internet and hasn't been working since. The laptop is able to connect fine wirelessly.
The router light seems to indicate that the ethernet connection is ok. I've tried connecting wirelessly from the desktop PC but that doesn't work either - the Netgear wireless usb adaptor won't open from within Windows as it usually would do.
Nothing has changed to the hardware setup (I've checked all connections) so I wonder if this is a software problem caused by a virus or maybe by Windows updates?
