I changed some settings and my internet doesnt work

So this morning I was playing around with my routers settings that I accessed thru 192.168.1.1. The only change I made was to allow public LAN. Now I'm not quite sure what that means (so obviously shouldn't have played with it). But previously my network did broadcat and it did not have a password. So after I allowed public LAN, my Internet connection switched to limited connectivity and I can't get my Internet back. I have tried multiple restarts and disabled ipv6, updated my wireless card settings and nothing I do works. I also tried to modify my Internet settings thru the Internet at 192.168.1.1, but it won't connect with limited connectivity and remote access to the router is disabled
What can I do to get my Internet back?
I have windows vista- lenovo/IBM T61- westell router(not sure what type)- verizon internet

Reset your router. There should be a reset button on it somewhere. This will bring it back to the default settings and it should start working again, or at least make it so you can access it via 192.168.1.1 to configure it.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

    When I download Microsoft word documents (if have word 2007), I have somehow changed the settings and it downloads them in wordpad, and the format is very bad and I can't read a lot of the document. How do I change the default setting back to using Microsoft Word 2007 to open these documents?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == about a few weeks ago - I had tried to open some docuuments saved on a mac, my PC (which runs Windows 7), used word pad to open these, and this seems to have changed the default settings somehow.

  • I updated the kmp player a few days before. It changes some settings on my firefox

    I updated the kmp player a few days before. I believe that It changes some settings on my firefox or more.
    It changed my home page. Also, every time I reopen firefox, it cannot show my windows and tabs from last time.
    Then I removed or stopped using the plug-ins in firefox (one of them is npAPI) that installed that day, changed the setting back to what I want.
    I can then get the home page back, but the problem that I cannot get my previous tabs when I open firefox back still exists.
    I have updated firefox to 25.0 today.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • My CD/DVD drives quit working and I had to change Registry settings to get them to work again. Now Itunes gives me a message at startup that I need to reload iTunes.

    Both of the CD/DVD drives on my desktop computer quit working. I had to change registry settings to get them to work again and after that iTunes gives me a message on startup that I need to reload iTunes because of the change in registry settings. I'm concerned that if I reload iTunes that my drives will quit working again though I don't know why they quit working in the first place. Is there a known problem or incompatability with some drives and iTunes. What is it about the registry settings that iTunes requires my CD/DVD drives settings to work or not to work? I haven't updated my iTunes software since changing the registry setting to fix my drives.

    I've read some of the support articles about reinstalling the iTunes upper filters in the registry but I don't like the idea that iTunes seems to be saying that they are the ones that will be in control of what CD burning software that I am allowed to use on my computer. If I put the iTunes upper filters back on the computer will I not be able to use other CD burning software again? If I reload iTunes will it interfere with the use of the other software, or, if I use the other software again will I have to go back and reload iTunes or reset my registry every time. This seems to me to be a problem that iTunes should fix so that they don't interfere with other computer operations.

    Sounds like the battery is dead. Take it to Apple and ask them to check it out for you.

    Logic's preference files may have become corrupted:
    1. Quit Logic Pro
    2. In the Finder, press and hold down the "option" key then select "Library" from the "Go" menu
    3. Open the "Preferences" folder
    4. Drag the following files to the Trash:
        - com.apple.logic.pro.cs
        - com.apple.logic.pro.LSSharedFileList.plist
        - com.apple.logic.pro.LSSharedFileList.plist.lockfile
        - com.apple.logic.pro.plist
        - com.apple.logic.pro.plist.lockfile
    These files will be re-created when Logic is next opened.

  • Some programs and video files dont work.

    Some programs and video files dont work, get a crash report everytime I close, even after an uninstall everything and re install.
    So I try playing some videos and it gives me an error, which I can watch on Chrome. Soundcloud doesnt seem to work, again works on chrome, and before I could watch WebM's but now it says not supported MME. Also everytime I close I get a crash reporter. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing seems to work. I just happened recently. Also cant play soundcloud. Tried everything, feeling like going to chrome where things work and support is actual support

    Protected mode works on some systems and not others. Since two of your four crash reports were related to Flash, I thought it was worth a try, but it's up to you whether you want to try it.
    I'm not sure whether the issue with WebM video is a setting issue or a program files issue or a system issue.
    '''Create a new Firefox profile'''
    A new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
    Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
    firefox.exe -P
    Don't delete anything here. Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
    Click the Create Profile button, choose a name like TESTING, and skip the option to change the folder location. Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
    Any better results with WebM video or shutdown?
    When returning to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the Delete Profile button. But... it's a bit too easy to accidentally delete your "real" profile, so I recommend resisting the temptation. If you do want to clean up later, I suggest making a backup of all your profiles first in case something were to go wrong.
    '''Clean Reinstall'''
    A regular reinstall may leave some stray files in your programs folder. This method is a bit cleaner.
    (1) If needed, download a fresh installer for Firefox 30 from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ to a convenient location. (Scroll down to your preferred language.)
    (2) Exit out of Firefox.
    (3) Rename the folder
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    to
    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    (4) Run the installer you downloaded in #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.
    Does Firefox behave more normally?
    Note: Some plugins may exist only in that OldFirefox folder. If something essential is missing, look in these folders:
    * C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox\Plugins
    * C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox\browser\plugins

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
