Fios Internet limited connectivity for vista

I am so frustrated with verizon support, after they switched me from dsl to fios, I am not able tonconnect my desktop to Internet neither by wireless nor by Ethernet cable. Can someone please have some solutions I can try
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Can you connect to the router at 192.168.1.1 with your XP laptop?  It might help to be able to see some of the config settings in router.
That 169.xxx IP address is a local only address so your Vista desktop is not getting an IP assigned by the router's DHCP server.  You could try to assign a static IP address to the desktop machine to see if that helps.  To try that:
Local Area Connection Properties  > Right click on Interntet Protocol V4 > Properties.  (You can uncheck V6 while you're there.)
Fill in:
Use the following IP address
IP address: 192.168.1.10
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway:  192.168.1.1
Use the following DNS server addresses:
151.198.1.39
4.2.2.6
Save those settings and see if that lets you connect to the Internet.  You can always reset to Optain IP automatically.
Note:  The DNS server addresses I listed should work.  They may or may not be the fastest in your location but if a static IP connects you to the Internet you can worry about that later.

  • Are there any other internet/online channels for Vista media center?

    Hi,
    I was just wondering if there are any other internet/online channels I can get for Vista Media Center?
    I only have about 9 at the moment, and would like preferby free ones. I don't have satelite or cable tv so would like online ones, is there anywhere that I can get sky one without a satellite dish as prison breaks on soon.
    Enjoy your weekend.
    Ian

    I dont think you will be able to find a free Sky One channel in the internet.
    But Im not expert and this is only my personal opinion.
    If you dont have a satellite or cable TV you could buy a DVB-T TV tuner and maybe then you will be able to receive more TV channels using MCE ;)

  • Limited Connectivity for users

    Hi all,
    We have 2 WLC connected with 7 RAPs and 16 MAPs , but some users connected to some APs don't get the DHCP IP and showing limited connectivity.
    But when I restart the APs ,they are able to connect sucessfully.
    The configurations of CoreSwitch,Access Switches and WLC screenshots are herewith attached.
    Any help appreciated.
    Sudeesh

    Which APs are you restarting?  The Maps or the Raps?
    One thing you should check is the mesh path back to the RAP before & after the reboot of the AP.  That may shed some light on the issue if the MAP initially has an efficient path back to the RAP but then degrades after a while.  Is the issue happening in a specific area? 

  • Link problem in Internet Explorer 9 (for Vista)

    Hi,
    I am creating a website with a link that links to my specific twitter page. It works fine in Firefox but when I open up Internet Explorer 9 (IE) I run into a problem. When I click on the link in IE it goes to twitter.com not my specific twitter page. I would love to fix this because I don't want my clients to have to hunt for me on twitter. It's weird because in Dreamweaver CS4 the links are correct in the properties panel so for some reason IE is not connecting with this link somehow.
    Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    No there's not any sensitive information. I would upload it but I don't want to upload it to my particular web host yet until the site is complete.
    People here often create a temp folder on their website for testing purposes, upload a problem page for all to see then pull it down when the issue is fixed.
    By the time you've fixed the issue, it's unlikely that Google has found it.

  • Err connection limited reached for your ip address On HIGH SPEED INTERNET

    I am getting the following intermittent error "err connection limited reached for your ip address" since this morning. It must have something to do with changing to the SSL ports. This applies to this account and my sub-accounts.
    How do I get it fixed?
    Thanks

    This issue was supposedly resolved by Verizon. Are you still getting this error?

  • Thinkpad yoga - limited connection - intel 7260AC (with solution that worked for me)

    limited connection issue
    i'm new to the forum, sorry for bad english
    i've a brand new rhinkpad yoga, with win 8.1 and intel ac 7260 wifi card
    first of all the solution that worked for me is moving from WEP to WPA2 protection with the router
    the problem was that i wasn't able to connect to internet using wifi
    i got "limited connection" and i wasn't able to access internet at all
    windows validated the connection and obtained an ip, but it wasn't then unable to access internet at all, i also wasn't able to access or ping the router.
    i also got an error stating the lack of the default gateway, but this one seems to be resolved by windows check and repair procedures
    my router had wep protection, and i used it with no issues with 2 android smartphones, an android tablet, a mac and a linux system, and in the past with windows 7 and vista systems.
    i've searched for solution all the night and checked everything
    - system and driver update (via usb thetering)
    - various command to reset network configuration
    - unchecking selected check box in energy saving tab inside wireless property panel
    but the only one solution that worked was the move from WEP to WPA2
    hope this helps
    my first post, be patient...

    From what I gathered, about the Y2P Limited Wifi issue, this problem is solved by configurating a router to meet the computer needs. Once done, to fully implement this fix, it is adviced  that you carry this configured router and use it every where you go, like a power cord. When you go to Statbuck in the monrining, be sure they hook up your router and return it when you leave. Alternitively, this can be done at other venues like the airport, hotel, school, work, etc. 
    I really don't know why people keep wasteing their time. Lenovo has chimed in and said this is a router issue. That said, the aformentioned advice is a formulated fix.  Shall we put an end to thiese topics and get the forum moving again past the wifi issues? Like said many times, this issue has been fixed using the above reccomendation.

  • Sporadic Rotating Loss of Internet Connection for Just Some Devices

    Hi,
    We've been having a problem where one or two of our devices (phones, laptops, iPads, Apple TV) lose internet connection for 10-30 sec at a time, while the others are fine.
    As best as I can tell it's a full loss of connection, not just something running very slowly due to us pushing the bandwidth limits. I've experienced the latter elsewhere and this manifests very differently. It will instantly and fully disconnect a person from an online game or drop a skype call without the accompanying prolonged lag or distortion of bottlenecked bandwidth.
    It happens at all times of day, and does not seem related to our peak times of bandwidth usage, nor the general public's peak times of usage.
    We should have enough bandwidh for our usage, and usually we do. Our system is 25/25 Mbps and during our peak use at most we would probably have 1 laptop gaming, 1 HD video stream, and 2 non-HD streams. However, like I said before, the problem seems unrelated to overall bandwidth usage. The same problem occurs even at midnight when our local usage is minimal.
    Overall we have 6 laptops, 5 phones, an iPad, 2 microcell signal boosters, and Apple TV, in total connected to the FiOS. We have a property with tenants where the signal is distributed via 3 WiFi routers and one direct ethernet cable to my laptop, and one to the Apple TV.
    It happens on devices that are both connected through the WiFi (wife's laptop, phones, iPad) and ethernet (my laptop, Apple TV). It can happen with devices that are a few unobstructed feet from the WiFi router. However, it anecdotely seems to happen more on our phones than laptops. 
    My hunch is it is something outside our local network. This is because our equipment  and usage has basically remained unchanged over the last couple months. (We got one new microcell tower for a different carrier, one new wifi router, but overall same # of people and patterns of usage.) And yet the problem seems to be getting worse. Back in probably early November I don't remember this problem occuring at all. 
    My second best guess is there are more devices connected to the network than it can handle simultaneously, and it rotates which gets kicked off. Maybe this was occuring before but we didnt realize it.
    My third guess is it has to due with signal interference with the various WiFi routers and microcell boosters. However, this seems less likely since it also affects devices connected via ethernet cables. 
    Any thoughts or advice is much appreciated! Thanks!
    -Ned

    Ok, so in the mean time we decided to upgrade our service so I've only tried this solution now. 
    My problem though now is I can log into 192.168.1.1, then give my verizon admin password, and then set my channel preference. That seems fine for changing the main network input and wifi router (call it A). 
    However, we have another wifi router (call it B) which is fed from A via a cable. I cannot figure out how to change B's wifi channel. Therefore I worry if we have only switched A, since A feeds B (as well as the 2 microcells) they will all still be on the same channel and therefore still interfering with each other. 
    I have tried www.routerlogin.net (and .com) as written on my netgear router and I get "http://searchassist.verizon.com/" telling me "Sorry, We could not find www.routerlogin.net". I have also tried logging into wifi router B via all the 192.168.1.X addresses I see listed on the Verzion account when I log in via 192.168.1.1 (in total I tried all the 192.168.1.[1-24] options).
    Thanks for the help!

  • FIOS Internet connection reset on the verizon side

    I am a new subscriber of the FIOS internet after having Comcast for years.  I like the service speed, etc.. but I have one nagging issue that I can't seem to get any help with.
    I have the ethernet from the ONT plugged directly into my firewall (same one I used for years with comcast) and every 1 hour 55 minutes and 3 seconds it immediately drops the connection and then restarts it.  This is a problem as there are many times I am in the middle of a vpn session and once it kills my connection I lose what I was doing, etc.
    Any ideas or suggestions?
    Here is a snippet of my FW log showing the drops:
    This is repeated every 1:55:03 in my logs.....
    Primary Cable Modem connection terminated after 1 hour(s), 55 minute(s), 3 second(s).
    Primary Cable Modem connection established, IP address XX.XX.XX.XX assigned.

    Wondering if it has to do something with renewing the lease?  Getting a new ip addy each time?
    Perhaps the firewall you have the internet running through isn't working well with the renewing of your lease -- seems like it since it appears it happens on set intervals.  Maybe there is something you could modify in the firewall settings?

  • How do I change the room that my FiOS Internet connection is wired to?

    My FiOS Internet connection was placed in my office but I am now renovating and need to remove my computer ( wired ) as well as router to another room during the renovation .
    I have coax outlets in 4 other places throughout the house but they were not wired to get the FiOS signal.
    I called and was told that if I am able I can connect one of those to the FiOS splitter or I can get verizon to come out to do it for me ( but I don't want to spend the money , particularly since this is temporary )
    Can anyone tell me how to do this?
    I checked out the wiring and can see that the Box in my basement is connected to a splitter with 6 other plugs of which 2 are used.
    Then there is another splitter attached to the wire that is coming in to the basement from outside. That is a splitter with 4 plugs..
    Any ideas? I can attach a picuture of the splitters if anyone is willing to take a look. ( tho I'm not sure if this post will take images since I dont' see an ' attachment link '
    Thank you!
    Susan

    The four plug splitter I assume is from a previous Cable company installation. If by "Box" you mean the ONT Verizon installed when you had FiOS put in, just connect a Coaxial cable coming from a desired room to the splitter the ONT is connected to and move the router over. Things should connect right up.

  • Error Message when connecting to FIOS Internet

    When I go to Network Connections and try to connect to FIOS Internet, I get a box to enter User ID and Password.
    Per the instruction from Verizon Tech Support, for the User ID, I enter the ESSID from my Actiontec M1424-WR, Rev C, modem 
    For the password, I enter the WEP KEY.
    Tried this ten times and nothing ever happens except the "Error 678 message-- The remote computer did not respond. For further assistance, click More Info or search Help and Support Center for this error number."
    The Verizon Tech could not solve the problem and wnated me to have Microsoft solve it. I paid Verizon for FIOS Internet service so I not about to call MS.
    Any ideas??
    Thx

    Today,  I spoke with another tech lady at Verizon who solved the problem. I had the cable in WAN and should have been LAN. Also, Internet Options
     had two entries in the connections box. When using the ethernet cable, the system automatically goes to FIOS broadband. No password is needed.
    Thanks for responding though.

  • Internet sharing for Vista - iPod Touch

    Having mainly used Mac as my operating system, I have figured out how to simply enable internet sharing through wifi, so that my iPod Touch would have an internet connection, and allow me to browse the web.
    On the other hand, I am currently on Vista as of writing and am having trouble enabling internet sharing for my iPod. It is not as simple, and I am lost. Could anyone guide me as to how this could be done?

    Just do a simple Google search for "vista internet sharing"

  • Linksys E1200 fails to connect to Frontier FIOS internet at setup

    I am trying to set up my E1200 router to Frontier FIOS internet. I went thru the setup and it failed to connect to the internet. What settings do I need? Frontier says that it should find the connection automatically.

    First of all connect the modem directly to the computer and then let me know the IP address that you are getting from the router? To check the IP address that you are getting from the Router...
    You can check the IP address in the following manner:
    # Click on Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt.
    # A black pop up box should come up, type: "ipconfig /all" …
    There check the IP address and Default Gateway under LAN….
    Here is the link for setting up the router with the DSL connection: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=20ee1457387f40178cd5f41d4b585db4_3687.xml&pid=80&r...

  • My new I pad three connects to the internet but only for a brief period of time. I then have to restart it only to get the same results.

    My new Ipad 3 connects to the internet but only for a brief period of time. I then have to reboot only to get hte same results. Any suggestions?

    You are correct.  Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases.  You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again:  Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

    many thnx for help ..

    Its a late response... but if someone gets the same issue here is the solution.
    When you register try uppercase password . That should take care of that issue.
    The problem is with function module CRM_ISA_IUSER_SWITCH , Note 946536.
    Although the note says 5.0 the problem exists with ISA 4.0 too

  • Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

    Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

    Hi SandyS_VZW,
    Yes tried resetting the wifi connection and problem still persist.
    Here it is...to make it clear. Connected thru the same wifi at home...
    -> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook WEBSITES are working fine and fast when using/accessing thru a browser (chrome/samsung browser) - no problem with this.
    -> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook APP is soooooo sloooww (thru the App). Slow I mean comparing it to using their browser/websites... news feeds/emails refreshing so quickly but not when using the APP installed in Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Slow like - It will take around 5-10minutes just to get your emails and news feed refreshed.
    THIS HAPPENS ONLY WHEN CONNECTED THRU A WIFI which has a speed of 10-20mb. It is not happening when connected to the network data/plan.
    My wife has the same Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (coming from different provider at&t) - same setup (emails, fb app), same wifi connection, but she's not experiencing anything like it.
    Not sure why, I dont want to believe that while connected to a WIFI, Verizon is restricting anything and ******* me off to make me switch to my data plan connection everytime - which is Unfair!
    Was there a known issue similar about this case?
    thanks,
