This is my first questions to this news group. Kindly bear if the question is
too long.
Iâ??ve Internet Explorer 8.0 in my computer. Recently when I tried to delete
some of the web sites from the browsing history (what I mean by browsing
history, is, the search pane found in the left top most corner of the
window), the entire browsing history got deleted. What I did was Tools >
Delete Browsing History > Delete. (At that time of deleting, the Preserve
Favorites website data, Temporary Internet files, Cookies and History were
checked in). Now I cannot able to store any websites in the browsing history.
Each and every time I have to write the complete address of the websites. No
drop down list appears in the browsing history. My computer is connected with
about 20 other computers through LAN and also through a server in my office.
Earlier what happened, when I access any other computer, the link of these
computers are also coming in the drop down list (which I donâ??t actually want).
Now I have the following questions
1) How can I store / save website address in the browsing history?
2) If required how can I delete some selective websites (but not all) from
the browsing history.
3) How can I prevent the link of the other computers in the LAN from
entering into the browsing history?
Please Help.
OK. We have a web server with an internal address 192.168.0.254, and an
external address of 12.14.16.18. The way our network is set up,
inside our network, on 192.168.0.x, we can only access that server from
the internal address. Attempting to access it with the external address
fails. This is fine. Here is the problem:
We have a Windows 2003 Server which is our primary DNS server, at
192.168.0.246.
It has DNS Host entries for intranet.ourdomain.com and
security.ourdomain.com, which both point to 192.168.0.254. These
entries also exist externally, though godaddy.com or some such, pointing
to 12.14.16.18. We also have an internal entry for test1.ourdomain.com,
which points to the same internal address, but has no outside entry.
I have verified that my system has the primary DNS server, our internal
...246 server. I have verified that it is working by pinging
test1.ourdomain.com. It returns the ...254 address no problem.
However, if I ping intranet.ourdomain.com, it shows up as
security.ourdomain.com, with the 12.14.16.18 address.
If my internal DNS server is working, and is first in line, and has a
valid internal address for these two domains, why is it giving me the
external DNS entry?
What is broken? Note that all of this is served up from DHCP by that
same Windows 2003 server, and other machines will ping out ...254 in
response to those domains. No, it is not my Host file.

Have PC running Vista XP Home and connected Printer on home network
Have 2 x XP Pro PC on home network and I wish to use printer on Vista machine.
Under 'My Network Places' all PC's are detected but when I try to connect to
Vista PC (for printer) , it requires a user name and password. !?! The vista
machine was set up with 2 accounts but no passwords. I've tried inputting
user name of logged on account but no password * as none exists). Fails
because blank passwords not allowed!!!! What's going on ????? and how do I
connect to printer ?????
Hello All,
I have an ADSL modem with just a single connection coming outof it, which
goes into a simple simple hub to which I've connected several computers.
Currently I want to install another computer on which I should be able to do
*anything* with it in regard to downloading stuff from the web, which means
its pretty open to catching some sort of disease .... For this reason I need
it to be seperated from my other computers (only be able talk to the
internet, not to any of the other computers I have).
I thought of a special kind of switch, one with a single output (to the
model) and two or more inputs (from the computers). The data coming from
the inputs will only be routed to the output, *not* to any of the other
inputs. Ofcourse, any data coming in from the modem for one of the
computers will be routed to it (and only it).
My question : does some sort of device like it exist (for the
consumer-market) ? I've taken a look at NetGear and LinkSys, but can't
seem to create a search-query to return anything worthwhile.
If anyone knows another solution (*not* involving setting up a seperate
computer) I would allso like to hear about it.
Regards,
Rudy Wieser
I have a computer that's running surveillance software. The computer is
connected to broadband internet via a d-link router and the router gets
dynamic IP from my ISP. I would like to set up the computer so I can view
the computer's desktop over the internet on a web browser. that is view the
surveillance pictures - since the surveillance software and cameras load
automatically when ever the computer boots up.
The computer is running a security software called Diginet surveillance
software. The connection needs to be done in a way that viewing
desktop/surveillance pictures on the web will not disrupt the computer's
operations at location . I have tried remote desktop. it's a mess. Does
anyone know how to do this using native XP/SP2/SP3 professional objects or
free third party software? I would appreciate any pointers. Thanks in
advance.

I am running a Dell Inspiron 8200 With Win. XP SP3. I upgraded to a Netgear
DGN 2000 Router / Modem and also installed an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 BG
Network Controller. My ethernet connection is a 3Com 3C920 Integrated Fast
Ethernet Controller. It doesn't matter whether I connect by cable or
wireless, after I am connected, the connection is dropped every 20 sec. for a
period of a sec. or two. I get the bubble "limited or no connectivity"
followed by "acquiring network address". It then connects again for another
20 sec. I have upgraded the firmware on the router but can't update drivers
for the Intel card because connection is constantly dropped. I have turned
off firewall settings for Norton Internet Security but it doesn't matter. I
suspect setting issues.
Howdy. For years I've had my desktop and then a wireless laptop which was
able to access some files on my desktop.
All of a sudden, it can't find the network path.
When I disable Zone Alarm from the laptop, it works fine. I probably did do
a ZA upgrade recently but I'm not sure.
I still seem to have addresses listed in the Trusted Zone, but I'm not sure
if they are correct. It's been many years since I set it up.
Any suggestions/guidance would be appreciated.

XP Pro SP3 on a Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop with fast user switching
enabled and connected to an 802.11g wireless home network. Every time I
switch users the wireless network connection is lost and takes a minute
or more to reconnect. This is very annoying. How can I prevent this?
Thanks.

I'm trying to connect through the web browser IE8 to XP Prof host PC. With
the ActiveX plugin running I select the desired resolution and click on the
connect button. A window then pops up that asks some questions related to
printer/file sharing and when I click its connect button a border of a window
appears momentarily in the browser and then the ActiveX remote login web page
comes back. No error message of any kind is given.
I have followed all the steps to the letter on enabling RD support on host
PC. For example, I read and followed this page:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/expert/northrup_03may16.mspx
On the server side I have disabled windows firewall and My McAfee personal
firewall has all IP and ports enabled for IIS and I also added a rule that
permits RDP. I also tried disabling that firewall too.
I have IIS and WWW serivces installed and port changed from 80 to 50000. I
have a linksys 54GL router which forwards ports 443. 3389 and 50000 to my
host pc, whose local IP is 192.168.1.100
I just don't get it. All the research I've done says it should work but it
instantly closes (doesn't even ask me for username/password) and returns to
the IE screen that asks for server and screen size. Without any error
messages. Has anyone run into this?
Windows XP PCs/laptops all running on a shared home network. Set up printer
connected to one of the PCs for sharing. When attempting to connect one of
the PCs(laptops) to a printer, which I can see using browsing, I get an error
message (Error: The printer name is not valid). Tried renaming. Current
name "HP2200". Highlight the "browsed" printer and click Next, I get the
error; "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Either the printer name was
typed incorrectly or the specified printer has lost its connection to the
server. For more information, click help".
Can't find the solution in other posts so far. A curious problem.
Couldn't ping either way in a 2-computer network. Disabled the
firewall and turned the router firewall on and now can ping both ways.
On computer #1, I can see the shared folders and files on computer #2
and print to its shared printer.
On computer #2, I can see the shared folders on computer #1, but
cannot access the files, but can print to its shared printer. Also
have a shared USB drive that is visible, but not accessible.
I've tried unsharing and resharing the folders to no avail.
What am I missing? This was working several weeks ago but has all of
a sudden stopped.
I have 3 computers on my home network, Dad, Son and Laptop. Dad has XP Media
center addition, the other two XP Home (all with SP3). I backup Laptop work
files to Shared folder on Dad. Suddenly I cannot access shared folder on
Dad, which now asks for a password.
I do not have users password protected. I have tried every conceivable
password I have ever used, with no success.
Dad can ping Son and Laptop without any problems and son and laptop can ping
Dad. Neither Son nor Laptop can access shared folder on Dad.
I have disabled all firewalls. I have simple file sharing enabled on Dad
(media center apparently is like XP Pro in allowing this option).
I have run and rerun Network Wizard and even renamed all the computers to
see what happens. The shared folder on Dad continues to ask for a password
whenever I try to access shared folder on Dad from either Son or Laptop.
This occured I believe after I deleted another user account on Dad that
*was* password protected, but I did not need anymore. The shared folder on
Dad obviously has nothing to do with that account.
Guest accounts are active on all computers as I've read Microsoft Tec
Bulletins that say disabling Guest can cause problems accessing some network
resources.
This is *not* a problem with a lost password. Dad was never password
protected in the first place, other than the single user account now deleted.
All computers show up when I check for networked computers on Son, Laptop
and Dad. I have even placed Dad outside the router firewall, with no
success.
I have seen others with this sudden problem but no solution. Any help would
be appreciated.

After cleaning a virus/trojan from my WinXP system I cannot get my network
adapters to load. In Device Manager they both have yellow exclamation marks
and the error "Cannot load device driver for network adapter (code 39)".
There are 4 other devices called "Wan Miniports" that also have the same
error. I've reinstalled windows XP, and reinstalled the device drivers
without luck. I also tried various TCP/IP and Winsock fixes without effect.
I installed a fresh copy of WinXP in another folder and everything works
perfectly so I know my hardware and internet connection are fine. This
happened to me last year and I had to reinstall my system, but it took me
weeks to reinstall my apps and get every working correctly.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated! - Scott.
Hello All,
I dont have much experience in networking hope some one can help me with
this.
I am in a school network with ip address 166.X.X.X. My XP PC is connected to
the network i have an ip of 166.X.X.X. ( i will name my PC as 'PC A'). For a
specific project we purchased a win NT 4.0 workstation PC ( i will call this
PC 'PC B') and wanted to connect to our network 166.X.X.X so we decided to do
a ICS ( internet connection sharing) with my PC A which is in XP everything
went well and the PC B was assigned a ip of 192.168.X.X we are able to surf
network with both PC A & PC B . but when we want to share files to PC B from
my friends PC whos is in the network with ip 166.X.X.X the PC B does not
shows! also when we ping the ip of PC B '192.X.X.X' from our ip 166.X.X.X
there is no responce but i am able to share files from PC A and also able to
ping from PC A.
Is this a limitation in ICS that the client PC will not be shown outside the
internal network? any solution to solve this is much appreciated I was
suggested that i need to use a dual LAN server if i need to see the clients
outside the internal networks...
The reason for me to ping is i need to send some packets to this PC B and
wants its response to this.
Thanks, sorry for long description!

Hi,
My Network Space Drive from LaCie doesnt work on my Asus 901 eeepc. I
have installed a Nlite version of XP on this laptop, for it is much
smaller and faster but doesnt have all the features. There's a big
chance I dont have some network proces running or something not
installed that is needed for the LaCie drive to work.
When installing the LaCie Network Assistant, it sais:
script: C:/progfiles/lacie/ethernetagent/bonjour.vbs
system cant find the file
80070002
Source (null)
Ofcourse I hope I can keep my Nlite-XP so is there anyone who can
point me in the direction of which file or process to add to make the
drive work? I've looked into this Bonjour process and it seems to be
running on my laptop.
Thanks!

Hello Everyone: I am trying to implement file sharing in a Windows/XP Peer to
Peer Network. I have 10 Windows/XP computers networked together -some of them
are allocated to Staff, others are Guest machines. I need the Staff machines
to be able to share files and I need those shared files to be inaccessible
(and preferably not visible) to the Guest machines.
My starting point was to disable Simple File Sharing so that I could use the
user level permissions. (Simple File Sharing does work in this configuration,
but I would like more access control at a user or machine or workgroup
level.) When I try to set permissions, the Shared Document Properties shows
me local objects only, not other machines/users on the network i.e. in
Permissions/Add/Select Users or Groups, I am not able to select anything
other than the local machine.
Can someone oint me in the right direction?
Thanks. . .

Dear All,
I am glad to be back here. I have a problem with my windows XP computer; I
have a wireless modem to connect to my ISP the drivers installed
successfully. However I have to use also my internal modem by going through
the new connection wizard and by selecting to set it up manually.
the problem is that when I arrive at that step it gives me only "connect
using a broadband connection that is always on"; the choices to choose
"Connect using a dial up modem" and "Connect using a broadband connection
that requires a user name and password" are not given, they seem not
highlited and not given as an option. But i want to use the first option in
order to be connected. Could you help me please?
Thank you in advance!

I have several computers in a peer-to-peer LAN at one office. Several
machines have shared folders. Now a new office is opened that I travel to a
few times a month and I need to access the LAN from the new office. The
total size of the files in the shared folders is a few megabytes (excel and
word files).
I'm running windows XP and vista. There is no dedicated servers or domain
controllers and I'd like to keep it that way because there is no one to
maintain the server.
In both locations (a rented office in a building), there is internet access
but I do not have direct control of the router/firewall. So I can't open or
forward a port.
I briefly look at the VPN in XP pro. It looks like I need a fixed internet
IP (which I'm not sure I would get; since the internet service is DSL,
probably with DHCP). It also requires mod to firewall, which I have no
control over.
Is there an alternate solution?
No need to walk me through a setup. Just point me to the right
technology/software. It doesn't have to be VPN, that's just the first thing
that comes into mind. The files are business-critical files, so hosting them
on an outside server won't work because if the internet goes down, I still
need to conduct my business at the main office.
This is merely an annoyance, but the dialog box for connecting a VPN
connection occasionally pops up all by itself. I recently did a
format/rebuild on this Windows XP Pro (SP3) computer and do not recall this
happening prior to that. I figure it is some obscure option I need to
set/reset.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Cheers. dj
Does the DI-604's DHCP server serve DNS as well as IP addresses ?????
Under WinXP and Vista, for the last 3 years, I have had my 4 PC's set to obtain IP address and DNS
address automatically under the TCP/IP settings and it's always worked until last week. Suddenly I
had random lack of Internet access when I powered on my PC's. The only way to get it back was to
power cycle the router before turning on my PC's. The Internet would work fine after this until I
powered down a PC or rebooted a PC then that PC would loose Internet access. Since all this started
I found that if I leave the obtain IP address set to automatic but put the routers address in the
DNS address box everything works and my Internet connection always works. The DI-604's manual shows
both set to obtain automatically in the illustrations but says nothing about it in the text. I've
also reset the router to factory defaults several times but it makes no difference. I don't know if
this router is starting to die or what........ Does the 604's DHCP server assign DNS as well as IP
numbers ????
Thanks
Brian
I have a wireless home network with 2 computers and 2 wireless printers. All
components are working fine. The main computer is cabled directly to the
Linksys router. When I click on network connections I get the connections
screen but nothing is displayed. The other computer displays the network
connections correctly. I can access the router through the main computer with
no problems. When I tried the network setup wizard I got a message saying
could not locate the network hardware. I have no problem connecting to the
internet from either computer.
The problem occurred sometime after I replaced internet explorer 7 with 8. I
am not sure what caused the problem because I didn't try to display the
connections until sometime after the upgrade.

Hey There,
A friend of mine and I are setting up a network for a friend of ours who
runs a small business.
We cannot seem to get the printer working over the network in ANY situation.
We are running windows server 2003, with the enabled roles of active
directory, file sharing, DNS Server, and DHCP. Before we had done anything
at all, we attached the printer to the server and shared it with the Printer
Management role, and that worked. It worked very well. We were able to add
each printer on each computer with \\servername\printername and it worked for
printing documents from any computer. Then, after a day or so launched all
the services, launched all the accounts, tweaked everything, and then
attempted to print. Did not work.
Here's what we've done since then. Tried deploying the printer and giving
every user admin rights over it. Tried connecting the printer to a
workstation and sharing it from there. Tried connecting the printer to an
airport extreme to have it accessed through its static IP address. Tried
adding the printer to a wireless print server to give it its own unique IP
address. Tried adding it to the Belkin USB hub so that it had both an IP
address AND a Mac address to add to our DHCP reservation lists, on a variety
of routers. In any scenario, we get an array error messages.
Printing a test page we get "Your Test Page Failed to Print. Would you like
to view the printer troubleshooter for assistance?" We did, with no results.
Printing a page with notepad we get "Invalid Handle"
Printing with command prompt, we get NO error messages, but nothing prints.
Please tell me that someone has a solution that I have not tried, I
desperately need to get this printer working, because I DO NOT charge by the
hour hahahaha.
I have a simple home network with usually 2 PCs (both with Windows XP
Pro SP3 / IE8.) They are part of a standard workgroup (MSHOME.) This
past week-end I finally was able to replace the defunct second PC
(motherboard died) and I am re-connecting this new PC to the network.
The problem is that this PC (PC-2) can not access my "main" PC (PC-1)
"shared" folders but PC-1 can access PC-2 "shared" folders.
What are the steps I need to do in order to check the correct settings
and fix it so that either can access to work from either?
I've a home network consist of Vista Home Basic & XP. While both computers
were set to share files & printers, I can see & access files in the XP PC
from the Vista PC but cannot see any Vista PC from the XP PC. Pls help.
Tks,
Stephen
Router wired to 6 port hub. Toshiba laptop wired to hub running XP Pro
SP2. Desktop wired into hub running XP Pro SP3.
The Toshiba has internet access, the desktop does not! How bizarre is
that and how do I go about diagnosing WHY the desktop does not have
internet access? (The desktop can ping the router OK).
I have a wired network connected to my company intranet, and a wireless
connecting to the internet.
Right now, my wireless is set to be the default gateway for accesss to the
internet.
However, I would like my Outlook 2003 to connect to the my company Exchange
server through the wired LAN, rather than through wireless using http,
because the wireless is unstable.
Some people said it is resolved by adding a persistent route.
However, I am not very familiar with routing, and using a DHCP server in my
wired LAN. Would anybody please suggest how to add the persistent route?

How can I do that?
THanks in advance!
I am running Vista on a Dell and have connectivity to my wireless network,
however, I am unable to connect to the network. When I try to run the
diagnostic serivce it suggests, I get the following message:
Windows could not start the Diagnostic Policy Service service on Local
Computer. Error 5: Access is denied.
I am logged in as admin.
Any thoughts!!??
I would greatly appreciate some advice on why I cannot achieve a Remote
Desktop Connection from a remote location yet it works just fine between
computers on my LAN.
Here is my setup, 3 XP Pro computers plus a Windows Home Server (WHS)
running on a LAN with a Linksys BEFSR41 router.
Let?s assume the internal address of one of my computers is 192.168.1.123.
For this computer, I have the ?Remote Desktop? box checked in both Windows
Firewall Exceptions and Advanced sections (TCP port 3389). I?m also port
forwarding 3389 for address 192.168.1.123 in the Linksys router. Shouldn?t
things now work from a remote location, what am I missing?
I should also point out that I have no problems accessing my WHS server from
a remote location. When I make a connection to this server I can view all my
LAN computers.
Thanks in advance
Hi,
I wonder if anyone can point me to a good Network Setup or Help
source?
I've spent about 3 weeks Googling but never found anything that works!
My Wizzards seem to be different to theirs, or instructions to "go to
local area connection properties" fail because I don't know where they
are.
We've two computers running XP and connect to internet via a router.
Both are MSHome. The system did work perfectly but I had to reinstall
Windows and now can get it working.
Thanks for any help.
I have a dell laptop with their internal 1390 wireless g card. I'm in
an office where free wireless is provided by the building, but it's a
mid-strength signal that I sometimes loose. So I can't change router
position or type or any of that because they provide it. It's G type.
I already have the laptop in the best place for signal. I could get
some external adapter, maybe one of the USB or slide in cards that has
an extended antenna that can be pointed in the best direction. But if
it would help I would rather replace the internal card with one that
pulls better. I know an N card is better or MIMO is better but only if
the router is doing the same? Right? So is getting a different kind of
internal card (N, MIMO, or?) going to help any? I'm thinking not but
not positive.
Thanks
I run Windows XP SP3 without any prblems except for three applications:
1. LivePerson (link to secure server doesn't work and redirects to the
program file map of LivePerson on my C-drive; somewhere in the process
appears an errorcode that points towards a proxy-problem)
2. Samsung PC-studio (no connectivity possible; error message "no pointer"
when hovering over the connection button)
3. Google Adwords Editor (during installation a message appears that no
update can be obtained from the server because of a proxy setting problem;
the suggested link to solve this problem doesn't work; after installation no
lilnk in the menu bar is operational: the shortcut letters (normally to be
activated by Alt-underlined letter) are not underlined, but are shown in the
code (f.i. H&elp), just like some database program do)
Who can help me to get these programs working OK?
Seems like I was successful in making a VPN connection from my Windows XP
Pro laptop to one of my LAN (XP Pro) desktops - at least it said a
connection was made.
What do I do next - I have no way to view files or folders on the
"connected" desktop. What have I missed?
Suggestions greatly appreciated.
I am trying to access my file server over a VPN. I can access the file using
a mapped drive (G:). If I try to connect to the server using the UNC path
\\192.168.111.11\<share_name> I get an error saying the file can not be
found. (The G drive is mapped to \\192.168.111.11\<share_name>). The problem
is I can't use the mapped drive as I have some files hyperlinked in Word -
which chnages the mapped driver to the UNC share name instead. I don't know
why I can access them using the mapped drive, but not a UNC path. Any help /
suggestions would be appreciated

I need to replace a faulty 10/100 Kb switch. Everything runs at 100 Kb at
present but I have a 1000 Kb NAS and any future new PC will be 1000 Kb
compatible. My network has 3 x 100 Kb switches at present and one needs
replacing now.
Is there any benefit if I buy a new 1000 Kb switch, which presumably will
work better than the older style anyway. If any of the routes are 1000 Kb
at each end is it possible to have both speeds running on the same network
or will I only see a benefit if I change all the network adapters to faster
speed.
Thanks

hey this is Annie, and I've been trying to connect my XP desktop to the
internet through the Ethernet cable, while my another Vista desktop's
plugging in another ethernet calbe to the same moderm! Even the XP desktop
states that the LAN is connected somehow but i can't browse the internet
using any web browser..! But my Vista desktop could use the internet by
connecting in that way.. I am confused and wonder is there something wrong
with the networking setting in my XP or is this totally not gonna work for
two computers connecting to the same moderm ? i am really confused and hope
someone could help....btw, i did turn off the morderm and tried to plug the
cable in again,but problem still exists.
Hello
Can anyone confirm for me please whether or not TCP/IPv6 isinstalled on XP
(as it is on Vista) I have seen it in 'Network Connections', but rarely. Is
it that it is installed by default, but not enabled?
Thanks.

Hi,
Under the device manager, there is an exclamation icon beside the Ras Async
Adapter. And I also find out that when I try to create a dial up connection
manual in the connections wizard, the dial up option is being disabled (grey
off).
Currently I am using Windows XP Pro SP3. Windows update had been done but
the problem still exist. Please advice.
I use IE7 and I am unable to access videos or streams from websites. Is there
any way to fix this problem. I go to mmo-champion.com and they have videos on
their page that i can access. All i see is a blank spot.
This is on an Acer laptop and is the only device on the network with a
problem connecting.
When I attempt to map a drive (net use) I get "System Error 53 has
occurred". If I attempt to connect from the run box using the UNC OR IP I
get "The network path was not found".
Now the strange part: I can ping IP or UNC just fine.
I have Repaired Windows from a cd, reinstalled SP3, IE7 and made sure I had
the latest Realtek drivers for the nic.
Any suggestions besides a clean install?
My internet was working fine this am and now I cannot get on. I ran a full
scan and nothing has worked. When I click on Internet Explorer, I get two
pops up:
1. iexplore.exe-Application Error - It says: The instruction at
"0x08ab0451" referenced memory at "0x08ab0451." The memory could not be
"written". Click on OK to terminate the program and click on cancel to debug
the program.
2. Data Executive Prevention - Microsoft Windows - It says: To help
protect your computer, Windows has closed this program. Name: Internet
Explorer Publisher: Microsoft Corporation At the bottom it then says: Data
Execution Prevention helps protect against damage from viruses and other
security threats.
Thanks,

I just installed DSl from Quest and keep getting an exception processing
message , C0000013 parameters 75b6bf7c 4 75b6bf7c 75b6bf7c and it wants the
CD inserted. I've tried running through the CD again but I still get the
message. It ask to Retry, Cancel, or Continue. Any of them gets rid of the
window, but in a while its back. Any ideas how to resolve the problem?
I have a 2003 server with approx 20 machines attached to the domain.
I have a laptop that is connected to the same domain but wirelessley through
an access point. If i try to remote desktop to the server from the wireless
laptop it sits for a while and then fails. If i attach the same laptop to the
network via a cable the remote desktop works fine.
Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks
I have had a wired network for some years, no problem, always on, so when the
router packed up recently I decided to go wireless with the laptop and
everything is OK except that every time I switch any PC on I have to reboot
the router to get an internet connection,I dont need to reboot the modem or
PC just the router, I have tried disabling all security apps, this did not
used to be the case so have I set something wrong on the new router. Using
Netgear WGR614 v9, XP Home all up to date including firmware.
How can I make my workgroup network connect up automatically when I
start a computer without having to enter a password every time?
My three computers run XP-Pro, XP-Home, and 98SE. Before I upgraded
the XP-Pro from SP2 to SP3, my three computers could connect by
workgroup.
After I upgraded XP-Pro from SP2 to SP3, the XP-Pro can connect to
files on the other two PCs as before. But when XP-Home and 98SE try to
connect to the XP-Pro they get a dialog box saying:
"Enter Network Password".
How can I bypass/eliminate that dialog?

I have an Acer Aspire 1690 laptop with Windows XP.
To get my BT wireless connection to the internet I have to click
Start>Connect to>Show all connections>Right click Wireless Network
Connection>Right click Properties>Wireless Networks>Use Windows to configure
my wireless network settings>highlight my network>OK, and connection is then
made.
However when I first start my computer and go through the above procedure
to the Right click Properties stage the Wireless Networks tab is not
available (only General and Advanced tabs). When I then restart the computer
and go through the procedure the Wireless Networks tab is available and I can
make my connection.
Frustrating and a waste of time.
Any suggestions, please?
