Can not get a connection on my laptop

I am having a problem getting a connection on my laptop.  I have a WRT54G Linksys wireless router.  My desktop is working fine but my laptop (which was working fine last night) is not conecting this morning.  I have been sitting on hold now for 56 minutes with support!!!  Anyone have any suggestions (besides hanging up the phone on these support people )
Thanks

What is the error you got on that laptop? Are you using any Wireless Network utility that is shipped with the wireless adapter or the windows WZC? If you are using WZC i.e. Wireless Network Connection, then go the properties of it and under wireless tab delete the preferred networks and create a new preferred network with the correct wireless settings on it. Check the wireless settings on the router if needed.

    Basically the message is saying the phone can't talk to the place where your email is stored for some reason. This could be an incorrect username/password, or some other issues. Follow the steps in this article and see if they help:

    i have done all the trouble shooting connection but mu iPAd still can not get wifi connection

    Hi Jo,
    Each router is a little different but here are the basics: login to the router using the administrator account, should have that info from the installer, and then you should find something like security settings, or it may be advanced security.  There will be a setting to the effect of limiting access, or it may say allow Mac address authentication, or admit the Mac addresses in the table...if that is switched on, you can just switch it off and that will allow any wireless device to attach.  If you want to keep it on, then you have to enter the Mac address for the device you want to use for access.  In the case of the iPad, go to Settings > General > About > WiFi Address (another way of saying Mac address).  Enter that very long sequence in the router's Mac address acceptance table and that should take care of things.
    Using the Mac address does not change any of the email settings, just limits attaching to the router in the first place.
    If you are already getting email, you must be attaching already so this should not be an issue.  If you are having email issues, such as receive but not send, you may not have the outgoing server set correctly: Settings > Mail > Account > Outgoing server name (usually an SMTP server) and you may have to go to the advanced settings to enter the outgoing password (normally the same as the account/incoming password) and then check to see if SSL is ON or OFF...most common email services say to set to OFF.

  • Can't get wireless connection to Gateway laptop

    My wife has a school-district issued Gateway laptop- state of the art. We can't get connected to the internet at home using our new airport express. The imac gets on fine, and the gateway gets on if we simply plug the modem into the computer, but nothing wirelessly. It's works for her at her job, it works in coffee shops. Her tech person told her it's equiped to work at home with adding any software, but we get nothing. Something we're supposed to tweak?

  • I can not get any sound on my laptop. the volume settings are on but no sound will play? help

    I can not hear anything but the picture plays fine.

    HI. =)
    All you have to do is update your sound/audio driver. (especialy if you just got a BIOS update, if you haven't, just proceed)
    first, make sure  nothin's attached to your laptop.
    go to hp.com -> support & drivers -  drivers & software -  (put in your product name/number - you can find that at the bottom of your laptop) -  at the drop down, select widows 64 bit (mostly)  then hit next - at step 2, 'SELECT A DOWNLOAD', choose driver - audio - click the first blue link and hit save - after saving, your laptop will prompt you to run it. hit run.
    then your laptop will reset, and it should produce sound.
    **your kudos will be appreciated.

  • WRE54G is already connected to WRT160N Router, but can not get access to internet?

    Hello,,,
    I have seven of rung expanders WRE54G and all settings i set as this link
    http://linksys.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/linksys.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=4104&p_created=11611...
    * same wireless SSID name
    * same Channle  ( What is the difference between the channel number 6 & number 11 for example?)
    * security ( i used WPA2 mixed, that is not in WRE54G, so what i should use)
    * Each Expander has own IP address as 192.168.1.2 up to 192.168.1.8
    Is the gateway mean the main IP of router 192.168.1.1 ?
    all those expanders connected with WRT160N ( the Link gets Blue light)
    but my laptop can not get the IP address near of any of those expanders, to get the access to the internet!!!!
    What is the reason please?

    I am very happy to communicate with you ( I sure i can learn some thing from you my brother )
    Your words are true seven the number of expanders is not easy option
    or the cause of the success of the wireless network coverage May succeed strengthened,
    with one or two, but more than that needs to be a better distributor.
    I think I will use RangePlus WRT110 as repeater in some floor where the wireless signal
    is not can work, after connecting through the wire with the main router,
    and then I can get half the reference from the repeater when i useing the WRE54G expander
    What do you think?!!

    If you are in a screen to plug into iTunes, then the device is in recovery mode. Your only option is to connect to the computer to restore the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • I Have a HP Pavilion DV7 1285DX laptop I can not get the speaker cover buttons working.

    I had to disassemble the laptop and now I can not get the buttons on the speaker cover working. The power button works and the buttons for the CD but the volume mute button and the wireless button will not work

    Odds are you did not connect everything back up properly. Do you have the Service Manual? I have disassembled a dv7 and it has ribbon cables going all over the place. Very confusing.

  • New Laptop, windows 8, can not get logged into iTunes.

    Hi
    I have a new laptop with Windows 8. I've installed iTunes but can not get logged onto my account or home sharing etc. I keep getting a pop up message
    "We could not complete your iTunes Store request"
    "The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later"
    I've already unauthorized my old laptop to make way for the new one so it can't be that.
    My iTunes libary is stored on an external harddrive and even though I chnaged to location folder in the iTunes settings it's still not picking up any of that either.
    Any suggestions before I launch the whole lot out the window??
    Thanks

    Try the following:
    If you see a message that your computer can’t connect to the iTunes Store, click another item (Podcasts, for example) and click iTunes Store again. If it still doesn’t connect, make sure your Internet connection is working—open a web browser and visit a website. If your Internet connection is OK, there may be a problem with the iTunes Store. Try visiting the store again later.
    Make sure your computer’s date, time, and time zone are set correctly.
    Make sure your account information is accurate and that you don’t need to correct a problem with a previous purchase. Enter the iTunes Store, click your account name at the top of the iTunes Store window, and sign in to your account. To verify your account information, click Edit Account Info and Edit Payment Information.
    If you’re having trouble signing in to the store using your AOL account, your AOL account might not work with the iTunes Store in your country. Only U.S. and U.K. customers can sign in using their AOL accounts.
    Make sure the iTunes Store is available in your country. For more information, visit the iTunes website.
