Can't connect to ellipsis jetpack on vista

can not connect to my laptop vista using my ellipsis jetpack. can it be done or do i have to switch mifi's?

    Pholcombe,
This should be something you can do and we'll be happy to help figure out why it isn't connecting. Does your laptop see the Jetpack connection at all? If it does and you try to connect do you get an error message or something? What about other devices? Can they connect to the Jetpack ok?

  • Windows 8 PC can't connect to Verizon Jetpack MiFi 5510L

    I have a Verizon Jetpack MiFi 5510L and I am unable to get my Windows 8.1 PC to connect to the Jetpack. My iPhone 5 with iOS 7.0.4 and my Lenovo T400 running Windows 7 Ultimate can both connect to the Jetpack with no issue or changing of settings. The Jetpack's WiFi network is visible to my Windows 8 PC (ASUS V500c), but the Windows 8.1 PC cannot connect to it. The Windows 8.1 PC connects to my home wireless network and wireless hotspots in multiple locations just fine. Any help would be appreciated.

    I tried everything in the posts, several times, without success, since I'm not sure what parameters to provide. For example, set profileparameter name=<name> authentication=wpa encryption=tkip authMode=userOnly returns an error message The oneX setting in the profile <profile> on interface "Wi-Fi" is not enabled. I've fiddled with a few settings, but nothing that seems to work.
    A coherent, step by step, solution would be nice.

  • HT2477 how can I connect a Garmin GPS etrex vista hcx to macbook pro with retina.

    I would like to know if is it possible to connect my GPS Garmin etrex vista hcx to my macbook pro with retina.
    Thanks.

    I believe that Garmin GPSr model uses a USB connection, so if you load the Garmin drivers, and possibly the [free] Garmin Base Camp utility, you should be able to connect your GPSr to your macbook Pro and transfer information.  I don't recall positively, but I think that your GPSr should appear as a USB drive automatically once you connect it, but it might require you to load the Garmin Communicator software.

  • Can't connect to wireless network in vista via parallels

    I have sucessfully installed vista on my macBook, but I can't reach the wireless internet connection in my building. No matter what i do i can't get it to work. Am I missing some drivers or what is happening. I can't find my airport...
    Kind regards
    Niels

    You would first need to connect OS X to your wireless network. Then you would need to make sure, via Parallels, that the Vista VM is bound to the wireless NIC.

  • Brand new IMac can't connect to Internet while using Vista Ultimate

    The subject is pretty much it, but basically.  We just bought a brand new IMac and I happened to have an old copy of Windows Vista Ultimate lying around and wanted to partition some hard drive space for gaming.  During the installation a message popped up that said Lion only supports Windows 7.  I went through with the installation and after Windows started I loaded in my old Snow Leopard CD.  I installed the drivers and went through the set up.  Everything seemed fine, but I am unable to connect to the Internet.  I plugged my desktop in via Ethernet to my router but still no Internet.  In my device manager there are many devices, including network controller, that have yellow exclamations next to them but I don't know how to update them or where to get the drivers.  Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I would be happy to take any steps to relay more information.  Thank you!

    New motherboard. So unless you can find, and want to mess around, which is why the pdf guide and all the faqs tell you what and how to install, and that only 7 is supported.
    Vista SP1 is no longer supported even by MS.
    You have Sandy Bridge based system with Thunderbolt, hence it needed new device drivers.
    Windows 7 64-bit SP1 Home Premium System Builder is $95

  • Sql plus can't connect to server From windows vista - VISTA 2007

    ERROR-12154:TNS Could not resolve service name
    SERVER OPERATING SYSTEM UNIXWARE 7.1.4
    ORACLE 8i
    D2K- RELEASE 2.1- SQL Plus 3.3

    NET EASY CONFIGURATION Closes, can't configure
    I have done configuration manually.
    I thing VISTA Not supporting or some protocol to be configured in VISTA
    Please help me to solve the poblem.

    So your 8i db is on unixware and you are trying to connect to it from you local vista machine ?
    What Oracle client version are you using on vista ?
    Lowest 8i that support 10g client connection is 8 1 7 3 , 11g will not connect at all, and i think all 9i's will work,
    but it seems that you have wrongly defined entry in tnsnames for the db you are trying to connect to.

  • Windows can't connect to shares on Lion Server

    I can't connect any windows machines (XP, Vist, or 7) to a Mac Pro running Lion Server. When attempting to connect, the windows user is prompted for credentials, and nothing entered in this box works even the server admin account info, once entering account credentials, it comes back with NAMEOFWINDOWSCOMPUTER\USER as if it's trying to sign into a domain, which we don't have domains.
    I can't seem to find anything relevent when searching...

    There are a couple things you can try:
    1.\ go to the apple server, sys prefs, sharing, selct file sharing and then select option. from there make sure the both check boxes are selected. then select done.
    2.\ while you are there, in the shared folders section, selct the folder you would like to share (or add if its not) and make sure the user is in the users pane that you want to share the folder with.
    3.\ restart your windows machine to make sure it forgets any passwords you may have put in.
    4.\ if it still doesnt ask for a user account go to map network drive. and select the option to put another username and password in. for the user name user SERVERNAME\username - ensure the servername is in CAPITAL letter...
    hope this helps...

  • I can't get my laptop to connect to the internet through my Ellipsis Jetpack.

    My laptop will connect to the jetpack but with limited access. It will connect to my mom's computer and my phone. I have windows 8.1 and she has windows vista.

    The usual thing is to delete the existing Jetpack profile on the Windows laptop, and then reestablish a wireless connection to the laptop where you will have to reenter the Wi-Fi Password.
    If you’re still having trouble, Verizon Wireless Customer Service (800) 922-0204, exists to help you connect your laptop to your Jetpack.

  • Ellipsis Jetpack won't connect and now won't even turn on

    I have been having a problem with my Toshiba running Vista , connecting to my Ellipsis jetpack. I called customer service and while the rep was very courteous and helpful, she stated the problem was a security issue with my laptop. I took several measures to disable the security features but to no avail.  Finally, I took the laptop and jetpack in to Verizon yesterday to get some answers. Two different service reps attempted to solve my problem. The second rep finally told me that this is a known problem with Vista/Ellipsis compatibility. He kindly offered the solution of upgrading to a newer version of Windows. After returningbhome and doing some research, i find that my Toshiba doesn't meet the requirements to upgrade. Does this mean I have to buy a new computer to connect to my jetpack???? On top of that, the jetpack shut down this morning while I was actually connected and working online, and now it won't turn back on, even after a hard reset. Frustrated and dissatisfied. Can anyone help???

    I too have an Ellipsis jetpack. Unfortunately the Verizon CSR(s) you spoke to gave out a lot of misinformation.
    Since you've been able to connect to the Ellipsis in the past it should not be an encryption issue (security). However you could log into the Ellipsis and change the security from WPA2 to WPA to see if that resolves your problem. Do you have the ability to connect a different wireless device to see if it can connect and remain connected?
    There are no "compatibility issues" with systems running Vista and connecting to the Ellipsis.
    If your laptop runs Vista then it will handle Windows 7 or 8. Most drivers should be installed automatically, but you may have to find some on your own.
    Regarding the power issue:
    Pull the power cord & battery out of the Ellipsis for 10 min, then reconnect and hold the power switch to power it on.
    I would also recommend that you see if there is a driver update for your wireless adapter. Don't just rely on Windows Update or Toshiba's website either. Get the model # of the adapter and go to the mfg's site for the latest driver - especially if it's Realtek, Intel, or Atheros since they are often updated.

  • Connecting Ellipsis Jetpack to Canon Printer

    Can anyone tell me how to get my canon pixma mg3200 printer, to connect to the ellipsis jetpack?

    Contact Cannon technical support and have them walk you through the printers wireless connection process.  Cannon will be able to look up user guides for you that will explain what needs to be entered and how to enter it in the printer.
    The Jetpack is going to be like any other wireless hotspot from the printers perspective.  There should be no need to configure anything on the Jetpack to allow your printer to connect.  If for some reason you need to look up the networking information of your Jetpack then let us know.  We would need to know which specific Jetpack model you have so we can dig up the correct user guide and provide you with the steps.

  • Can't connect to wireless network with Dell Inspiron 1525 with Vista

    I set up a wireless network about a week ago, and have made it with the following security features: WEP, enable only certain MAC addresses to connect, and disabled broadcasting the SSID.  I have been able to use it just fine with my Mac computer using airport, but when I have tried to connect my roommates computer, a dell inspiron 1525 with vista, it can't connect.  I can locate the network but when I try to connect to the network, I get a message saying that for an Windows cannot connect to the network and that the Wireless association failed due to unknown reasons.  It then says to connect with your administrator, but that is me.  I have a minimal knowledge of computers just enough to be dangerous and am basically figuring this out as I go along.  If anyone has some advice for me, both my roommate and I will be very grateful.
    Thanks,
    - Jill
