Connecting laptop to wrt54Gs2

I just purchased laptop and trying to connect  to router. I couldnt find connection and enabled file sharing on laptop by accident. Now when I turn on the laptop it is asking for windows password and id.  It never did this before. I cannot even get into my laptop anymore.  I assume it is trying to access my pc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure how a Windows login user id & password got assigned without you knowing/remembering it -- but stranger things have happened - I am sure of that

  • Connecting laptop to existing router connection

    I'm trying to connect my laptop to an existing linksys wrt54g connection.  I can get a good connection, and am able to successfully input my network key, but cannot get the internet to connect.  Trying to connect to a wpa2 connection, laptop has windows xp and service pack 3.  Any suggestion?

    If it shows connected ..... then check what is the Error message you are getting while connecting to the network ......

  • Printer 'offline' when actually not on wireless connection laptop

    I have an Officejet Pro L7590, connected via a wired connection to my Linksys router.
    My laptop runs Windows 7 32-bit Home Premium and is wireless connected to my router.
    When I double-click the printer in 'Devices and Printers'. It shows 'printer offline'
    When I print a document it goes to the queue, but doesn't printer.
    I have already tried the following:
    . re-install the printer
    . install the printer as local printer, with as port the IP address of the printer
    . install the printer as networkprinter
    . run the Diagnostic tools provided by HP
    But still the same problem.
    When I connect my laptop via a wired connection to my router (without changing anything to me printer settings) the printer is 'online' and works fine.
    How can I make the printer work when my laptop has a wireless connection?

    Hi there,
    Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
    It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
    Best of Luck!

  • How to connect wi-fi connected laptop to the ethernet connected PC??

    Hi, 
    System 1 - PC, connected to the router+modem with ethernet cable, mostly has static IP
    System 2 - Laptop, connected to the router+modem with wi-fi, mostly uses DHCP 
    I want to connect these 2 systems in order to access the shared data & printer of PC in Laptop. 
    I tried to do this by doing the following on my laptop.
    start -> run -> \\<ip address of PC>
    But I got the error that "Windows cannot connect to the \\<ip address of PC>". When I diagnosed it, it showed that "Your computer appears to be correctly configured, but the device or resource (<ip address of PC>) is not
    responding".
    How to connect now two systems?

    Hi,
    Please take a try with the following steps:
    1. Restart the router;
    2. Reconfigure TCP/IP settings, Navigate to :
    Start/
    Control Panel/ View network status and tasks/
    Networking and Internet/Change adapter settings/Local
    Area Connection/Properties./Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)/Properties
    set both IPv6 and IPv4 to Obtain an IP address automatically, select Obtain DNS servers address automatically, and then click
    OK. 
    3. Run the below command in command prompt with admin rights:
    ipconfig /flushdns
    ipconfig /registerdns
    ipconfig /release
    ipconfig /renew 
    Then try to connect the two machines again.

  • Connect Laptop to a TV

    I have Satelite A215-s7437 and I would like to know what I need to hook my laptop to my TV. Any Suggestions? Also my DVD/VCR is Toshiba.

    Well I see that your laptop has an s-video out port and a VGA port, but
    it also depends on what inputs are available on your TV,
    your VCR/DVD probably has component (red,yellow and white) and Coax.
    The cable you want should have an s-video at one end and on the other anything else
    (it can be another s-video or component or even HDMI), but it depends on
    your tv and whether you want to connect to the DVD/VCR.
    The reason that I'm not mentioning VGA is because its
    an inferior way to connect.

  • I have 3 questions,Audio/Video Remote Control HID driver windows 8 fails to install code 32, trying to use usb tether connection rather then using WiFi to connect Laptop and iPhone. can only connect using wifi. Last quest. about the hotspot bar.

    In device manager it shows an error code 32' using iPhone 5 related to Apple Tv I believe is when this started, I am thinking I can DL the file and install
    biut I am not sure how to properly do this.
    Also I use my LTE to tether (paid) to my LapTop as well, The issue I am having, I cannot get the USB to work as a network connection. However using the WiFi method works fine but I rather use the sync cable at times such as when I am charging the phone and/or wishing to not  trainsmit my ssid for others to see even though I do use a password.
    Last question about using the built in WyFi tether connection, Is it posable to remove or ake the annoying blue indicater bar at the top disappear? This blocks from doing certain tasks that forces me to shut off the HotSpot app. to allow me to pull down the info bar at the top, Please Help Thanks

  • Problems with an Error when connecting Laptop to HDMI-TV Using PSE9

    Hi Guys.
    Having a problem using my connection to the HDMI-TV at my house.
    I am using Photoshop Elements 9.0.3, so no update is available right now. I did a nice Slideshow of my trip to Thailand. When i watch it on my Laptop everything is fine. Even if i go to Full Screen Preview. When i connect my Laptop (new Asus Notebook K52Ju, i7, 64Bit Windows 7) to my TV via HDMI everything works fine. So the connection is allright.
    As soon as i start the Slideshow (Play Button), there comes the following error:
    Elements Organizer - unknown Error "-2004353023" preview of the Slideshow
    Doesn`t matter if i use Full screen mode or the regular mode.
    There is always this error coming up.
    Anyone has an idea what to do?
    Or is there a better way to watch my Elements Slideshow on TV??
    Please let me know what you think!
    Thanks to all from Austria
    Stefan

    Anyone has an idea what to do?
    Or is there a better way to watch my Elements Slideshow on TV?
    Here is a sugggestion that might work for you: 
    If you are creating this slide show with the Elements Organizer Slide Show Editor--
    then use the Output function of that slide show editor to create a WMV file of the slide show. Then use Windows Media Player to play the slide show from the WMV file with the HDMI connection to your TV. 

  • Using USB flash drive to connect laptop

    On previous versions of Network Magic, when adding a laptop to my wireless network, an option would appear for using a USB flash drive to transfer settings and/or password to the new machine. 
    After a few "upgrades" to NM, the option ONLY appears after I turn my security off.  If I leave my WEP security ON, the only option that appears is to "copy" the 32-digit password & enter it on the laptop.  However, I keep getting errors.
    Is there a procedure to use a USB flash drive to connect a "new" laptop to my secured wireless network?
    Thank you.

    Hi thomas,
    If this is your own New Laptop to your Network, and even after you supplied the password, the problem is the Network Lock is still on. You need to disable the Network Lock. Enter the password, installed Network Magic if the Laptop is your own. You need to stop tracking your Laptop as an intruder on your other copies of Network Magic.
    Then you need to reenable the Network Lock from your Wired Computer. Use your other computer to activated the copy of Network Magic installed on the laptop.

  • Inability to connect laptop to printer connected to new desktop windows 7-64bit

    We cannot connect our officejet 5500 to our laptop since buying a new desktop computer now running Windows 7-64 bit. Although the laptop runs on Windows 7, it previously was able to access the printer. Since upgrading the computer we seem not to be able to connect.  Our systems are wireless though the printer plugs directly into the computer. I did do the search for drivers and seems the 5500 office jet has the correct driver.  Now what??
    Thanks!

    The most important part at this point, since they both use Windows 7, is to ensure they are in the same homegroup.
    Go to the start menu and search for Network and Sharing Center.  Do this on both computers.  Open the sharing center and then go to Choose Homegroup and Sharing Options.  Do the computers indicate they are part of the same homegroup?
    Let me know what happens when you go to the Homegroup options on each screen.  It really seems as this is where the core of the issue is as the steps provided have worked with similar scenarios.
    The homegroup requirement of Windows 7 can be disabled, but then sharing the computers with each other gets a little more complex as you would be prompted for a username and password each time you tried to access the computer on the network.
