I thought that you just turned on the IPad2 and it would automatically connect to my Dell Studio 5010 DW1501 WiFi Half Card to my new IPad2. No way, I have spent the best of 5 days trying everything including re-installing Windows 7 Pro including the latest DW1501 drivers, but to no avail. I just can not connect. I hear that there is a patch to make Windows 7 compatable with IPad?
My laptop, windows 7, is telling me there are no connections available. My iPad and phone are connected. I've removed my wifi network and replaced it, I've restarted my laptop, I've deleted other networks.
we recently upgraded our home router and have been having trouble ever since. Our old router was a Netgear one, so we bought a newer netgear model. Since installing the new one we can not get my daughters laptop, an iPad and ipods to work on the wifi. My computer is wired into the router and works fine, it is just the wireless. All of these things worked perfectly using our old netgear wirelss modem and all of them can find the wireless network on their list of available networks, they all say that they are connected with a good signal, but when they try to browse the internet or check emails, it comes up saying not connected to the internet. We even bought a range extender because we thought the signal might not be strong enough between the new router and my daughters bedroom which are at opposite ends of the house and on different floors, but it made no difference and wasn't a problem before.
Anyway, the router we bought is a Netgear N150 wireless modem router DGN1000, the cables are plugged in to ports 1 and 4 ( there is only 1,2,3 and 4 to choose from). The extender is a Netgear universal range extender WN2000RPT
I have tried turning it all off and back on again, have uninstalled it and reinstalled it, but still nothing. Daughters laptop uses Vista and she has McAfee security. Exactly as it has always been and has worked fine using our old wireless router, just not this new one.
iPad connects fine to WiFi leave it idle for 20mins and then when you wake it up, it doesnt reconnect. It is not just this 1 pad, i have about 20 users in the office with same problems.So far i have tried the following:
1. Update router firmware 2. Network initially had split up so each floor router was a DHCP server now only 1 DHCP server. 3. Test with different security WPA/WPA2 and No security. 4. Connect to different wireless router. 5. Try Apple's Airport but doesnt work in corporate enviornment(couldnt even get it working at home) 6. Try adjusting screen brightness (not in a million years is this a fix!!). 7. Static Addressing not an option as too many devices and it is not a fix.
i am getting internet from someone by a LAN cable. the lan Cable is connected to my LAN Card (RJ45).i bought a IPAD. and i want to browse using IPAD. IPAD needs Wifi connectivity. can i convert this existing setting to browse internet from my IPAD?
i'm overal content with the router. But i bought myself an ipad and an app to go with it,what it does it, you access your computer from your laptop. You can than transfer files onto the ipad.But the max speed while transfering is 4150kbps, kinda slow imo.
I received a Linksys E1200 Wi-Fi Router for Christmas. I inserted the Setup CD into my iMac, running OS X version 10. 8. 2. I clicked on setup and a window opened with the message "Unsupported operating system".At this point I don't plan to use the Wi-Fi for the computer, but I do need to connect the ethernet cable to the router, then to my computer.I will be using Wi-Fi for my iPad. In that case, I have no instructions on how to set up the router for my iPad. Will this Wi-Fi router work or will I need a router compatible with OS X version 10.8.2?
I have an existing home network with several win7 and XP machines connected.I would like to connect a new iPad wireless to th same work group. The iPad connects fine to the network and can access the internet.However, the iPad doesn't seem to see the other computers in the work group I want to connect it to, nor do the windows computers see the iPad. This is surely due (at least in part) to not having specified the work group name on the iPad, which I cannot figure out how to do.
I recently installed Linux Mint 10 (Julia). Having found the network options, it seems unable to find my BTHomeHub2, although Windows 7 finds it perfectly well with 5 bars.Interestingly, the network icon in Linux only shows VPN connections and Wired connections, no wireless section. My computer is a Medion Akoya E4120 D with a Realtek RTL8191SU Wireless LAN 802.11n USB 2.0 Network Adapter. The wireless adapter is inside the PC, attached to an internal USB port I'm guessing.So all in all, how do I get my wireless internet to work with Linux Mint 10?
It just happen yesterday that my brother's laptop can not connect to Wi-Fi - it could not detect any wireless in the range while my macbook can still find many wireless around here. As usual , I will use window troubleshooting. However , this case , it could not identify any problem ; it said " troubleshooting can not identify problem ". My brother's computer run on Window 7 , Hp pavillian tx 1000.
I use a Linksys WRT54GR router. I recently bought an iPad, and I generally use it in a room that is on the other side of the house and through many walls. When it works, it works nice. But recently, my signal has been weak, and is often dropped. Pages load slowly, or not at all after getting a could not connect to server or whatever message. However, this isnt a huge problem for my laptops when used in this room. I dont believe it is the iPad that is faulty because my iTouch also experiences difficulty sometimes. I need a way to increase the signal strength for a longer distance. I looked at a repeater, but im not quite sure what it is and how to set one up, or where to buy one.
How do I fix my network so that my Windows 7 and XP computers automatically detect each other on the network. 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).
I have a problem that ocuppied a lot of time. I have a new laptop, a DELL N7110 that comes with an FreeDos. I have installed the Windows 7, but i can't make internet to work, i even tryied to get a driver from Dell official site, but nothing. If i enter in Device Manager, at Other devices, all the options (Ethernet Controller, Network Controller, PCI Simple Communications Controller, SM Bus Controller, Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller) are with a triangle with an " ! " mark.
have now been trying to get a wireless adapter to work on my computer for a couple of days now. I ordered a refurbished Cisco AE2500 and tried for hours to get it to work to no avail. I can't quite rember everything I tried to get it to work, but I will try. When I try to install from the installation CD it will not detect the adapter. I tried to download the drivers from the internet, but windows did not recognize them. I tried to update the drivers through device manage and windows update and that did not work. I updated all motherboard drivers and BIOS. I tried unplugging the power from the wall. I tried resetting the BIOS. After all of that, I decided that the adapter must not work.Today I went to Staples and bought a NETGEAR G54/N150 USB Micro Adapter. I ran the setup CD, put the adapter in and it detected. It would not connect to the router for some reason, and I thought it may have been because I set it to use the push to connect feature and the router did not have that feature, so, I uninstalled the software and tried to reinstall using just the stand alone windows driver and now my computer won't even detect it. I went through most of the things I went through with the first router again and nothing has worked
I turned on my computer an tried to connect to the internet and it says that it cannot detect any internet connections. I don't understand why it says this because it is connected through the Ethernet.
Recently my computer will not connect to wireless internet and when i plug in the either net cord directly it still will not connect.. i have tried to reinstall windows 7 but it still will not work.. i am running windows 7 home premium on a Dell Alienware m14x..
I just reformatted my laptop with a new windows 7 because I didn't have a recovery disc and did not make backup image. But now it seems like the drives that are suppose to come with the laptop are not installed because it can't connect to the network. I tried using an ethernet cable but it doesn't detect it?
I have a Macbook computer and I can access the internet. I also have the Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium software loaded on this computer, but I cannot get access via the wireless system on Windows. what is keeping the system from gaining access. The response when attempting to gain access is: "Windows did not detect any wireless network hardware".
I recently re-installed Windows 7 and I can no longer connect to the internet because I am unable to find the network, after checking my device manager I need to update drivers for ethernet controller among others and am unsure of how to do this with no connection.
I've had my Studio 14 for a few days now and it's working pretty well. I have a NetGear RangeMax 3700 dual band router. The laptop sees my 'g' network but does not see the 'n' network. I see through searching that some other people are having the same problem. I know it has something to do with this laptop as my wife's Latitude right over there on the kitchen table sees both just fine.
