E2000 won't connect to laptop using Easy Setup Key

Running Win7. When trying to connect Lenovo laptop to E2000 with Easy Setup Key, the progress bar hangs at 25%. However, the E2000 will connect to the laptop with an Ethernet cable. Same problem on both of my Lenovo G555 laptops. Any ideas?

I have heard about this concern with Atheros adapters and where it cannot connect with WPA or WPA2. Check if you set the security to WEP if it will connect. (Usually it does). And better check for updated drivers from this website. http://www.atheros.cz/ (manually update the drivers). The automatic update with windows will most of the time load the same driver version. So it would be best to update the drivers manually.

Hi Pebbles2313,
It sounds like you have an issue with your printer software. You may find some of the software necessary to run your printer through the following link:
OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download - Apple Support

Try downloading the driver directly from Canon's web site.

Linksys E2000 Won't Connect

My sister gave me her E2000. I run the setup program, my laptop sees the router and it shows a strong signal. When I try to connect with it, it won't connect.

I have a cable modem. No DSL, no FIOS.
Thanks for staying with me. Please understand that I have absolutely no common sense when it comes to networking, so if you could spell everything out simply and completely, then that would be helpful. Don't assume that I know anything about anything.
You asked me for the IP address of my desktop computer and when I gave it to you, now you say that that was the address of the modem. I'm confused. Do the modem and the computer both have different IP addresses? If so, then how do I know which is which?
First of all, if I connect my non wireless capable (NIC card ethernet only) desktop to any ethernet port on the router and connect the modem to any other ethernet port on the router, then I'm able to connect to the internet. After awhile, I lose connectivity and have to shut down the computer and the modem to reset things. I think it has something to do with dynamic IP assignment with the cable modem. Can I eliminate this and assign a static address to my desktop? I know how to do this with TCP/IP.
If I remove the modem from the ethernet port and connect it to the "internet" port, as it SHOULD BE, then I can't connect to the internet.
I assume that the router is functioning as a hub when both devices are connected to ethernet ports, although not sure why the computer loses its IP address after awhile.
Of course, I have not yet spoken about my wireless capable laptop......................the whole reason for this exercise..............

Ps4 connect to laptop using hdmi

Hi! Tell me how I can connect Ps4 to laptop screen using hdmi-cable?

It's highly unlikely that it would work as the HDMI connections on laptops are typically outputs to connect to an external display. I've never heard of a laptop having an HDMI input.

Printer won't connect to laptop - Please help asap!

I've connected my printer to the internet, done all the steps that the useless desktop dr or whatever it's called has told me to do, (including uninstalling/reinstalling various different things, restarted printer and laptop, turned router on and off etc) and it still won't connect!
I've got my final deadline in a week and I honestly have no idea what to do anymore, and since I can't actually find anywhere to contact HP on here, I'm begging anyone for some help?
I've set it as default, it's printing "test pages" with no problems, it just will not connect to the laptop (Dell, Windows).
Thank you

Please provide the following relevant information so someone can help including:
Printer Model -
Detailed Problem Description -
Operating System of computer (including service pack revision) -
Connection Method - USB, Hardwired LAN, Wireless? -

Mac Mini won't connect to internet using Apple products (Safari, iTunes, AppStore). Date and time are frozen to the moment CPU is booted up. Firefox works. Cannot update.

For the past few days my Mac Mini has been having issues.
Safari won't connect to internet, but Firefox does.
Time and date are frozen. Only resets when copmuter is re-booted.
Unable to update via App Store and iTunes won't connect either.
Please advise.

Hi again,
Let me ask for some better help for you that is familiar with this problem (if in fact it is a similar problem with the IP address and your ISP.
The other topic concerning this can be found at:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2725608
It is a somewhat lengthy thread but may just apply to your situation.
Anyways I will see if I can call on some better help for you. Hang in there. Best to arm yourself with enough info before contacting Comcast so they might know what you are dealing with fully.
littleshouders
edit: I have posted for some extra help for you that may have a better idea of what's going on if it is your ISP and their modem and how it handles the IP address causing Safari and iTunes not to connect. Hang in there it may take awhile but I'm sure someone will pop in to help.

Changing audio pre-sets (i.e. not using easy setup)

Easy setup (DV-NTSC anamorphic) is forcing me to use a 48 hz audio preset and I did not record my video in this setting. How do I change it to 12 hz (I always re-do the audio later, but while capturing, warning window is annoying.)

I did not have all the options clicked. When I did this, the right option popped up.

Windows laptop won't connect to internet using airport express connection

Hi. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I set up airport express on my imac g5 so I could share the internet with my windows laptop. I have a wireless notecard plugged into my laptop (802.11gg)--the laptop recognizes a wireless network with my imac no problem. I'm able to access the internet with my imac, but my laptop can't. I have a cable modem with the ethernet cable attached to airport express. I set up the wireless network using wep. Am I missing something? Please help! Thanks!

I had a similar issue this morning. My problem was my password. Apple will allow short passwords with wep encryption. Other manufacturer's don't.
"The multiplatform issue
Being an older protocol, WEP password treatment was not implemented uniformly by all wireless hardware and operating system manufacturers. Some products require users to enter relatively cryptic hexadecimal characters (four bits each), while others allow "plain language" password entry. A plain language password, like "apple", uses standard ASCII characters that are 8 bits each.
Products that allow plain language (ASCII) password entry may not force the network administrator to create 5- or 13-character passwords that would result in the required 40 (5*8) and 104 (13*8) bit-length passwords. Instead, they use a "hashing" routine to convert an odd-length password to the correct bit length. The multiplatform issue arises when the hashing results of products from two different manufacturers don't match each other. The resulting "network equivalent passwords," which are always given in hexadecimal format, are different."
In my case I made the password 13 characters long and everything works fine now.

IPod Touch won't connect to laptop/computer or iTunes

Before anyone says it, yes I have done everything listed on the site for this problem and nothing works.
I have what I believe is a 2nd Gen 16gb iPod Touch and am running Windows Vista. My laptop has 3 separate USB plugs and yet when I plug the iPod USB cable (with iPod attached) into any of the USB plugs nothing happens. It doesn't charge, it doesn't show in iTunes and it doesn't show up at all on my computer. It's not the USB plugs as other USB devices work and its not the USB cable as I used it the night before this problem first occurred (which was yesterday).
I don't know what to do at this point.

What is "everything on this site?" Have you tried a reset? Restore?

Went 10.3.9 to 10.4.8 & now MacOS won't connect to Servers using afp! HELP!

I did an upgrade installation of Mac OS 10.4.3 ontop of Mac OS 10.3.9 on a G4 AlBook. I then did the downloadable combo updater to take it 10.4.8.
However now when I try to connect to any servers using Go - > Connect to Server I get no response.
When I try to navigate to the Servers using the Finder and click connect I am told that the alias is broken.
I thought his might have had to do with an installation of Netware for Mac OSX so I used the Netware install file to step through and remove all Netware files & I stil can't connect to Servers.
Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
I have yet to run any of the software updates on top of 10.4.8 perhaps one of these improves 10.4.8 afp compatibility?
Thanks in advance,
Neil.

James,
thanks very much for this. I'd hoped not to have to go to 10.4.9 but it sounds as though your solution may well work with 10.4.8 as well? I.e. it sounds as though a component of the old system left behind by the incremental upgrade has broken the servers.
I should have also mentioned that it is Netware boxes that I am trying to access. so it appears as though all manner of server is broken in this situation.
This is so inconvenient (esp with regard to software authorised to hardrives, how does that behave with an archival install?).
But once again many thanks for your help,
Neil.

IPad 1 won't connect to PC using USB

Can't connect to internet using a WPA2 key

Compaq Presario with xp. Oldish but with service pack 3. But we have router with WPA2. Computer won't recognize key code from back of router. Tried to 'update' to KB893357 which gives WPA2, put message said the computer's program is 'newer' so update not
needed. Still can't use key. No error message either, just quits trying, and not connected. (Ethernet cable works ok, but we want wireless). What can I do now?

The drivers for the wifi adapter must also support wpa2. Search the manufacturers website for updated drivers. However some old wifi adapters do not support wpa2 at all, so the best option would then be to purchase a usb wifi dongle. These are pretty cheap.
