I "secured" my network and in doing so disabled my wireless connected pc

I "secured" my network and in doing so disabled my wireless connected pc cannot see the network or rather the network is blocking it off. In doing the settings I did notice on the active pc list it showed 1 active pc and 1 inactive pc and at the time both pc's were active and connected so I don't know why I got that. I don't know what to do further except use the cd that came with the linksys wireless and I cannot find it!
Can anyone help me undo what I did and possibly re do it allowing my second pc to be seen and allowed on the network?
windows xp, linksys wireless G router and usb adaptor

Hi...
   In this case first connect one of your PC to the router with an ethernet cable.
then log in to the Setup Page of the router with http://192.168.1.1 username is blank and password is admin.
         Under the wireless tab on the Wireless MAC Filter , disable the Wireless MAC Filter.Then on the Basic  Wireless Settings make sure that the wireless channel is either 6 or 11.also check that the SSID Broadcast is enabled.
       Under the Wireless Security tab change the security mode to WEP and in key 1 ,type any 10 digit numbers [1234567890] as your security password.
      i hope this will work.

Does Apple TV support wireless connection to the new MacBook Pro retina in an extended display mode?

Does Apple TV support wireless connection to the MacBook Pro retina display in an extended display mode? What is the output resolution and is sound also transmitted across?

SB1983, by extended display do you mean mirror? All MBP since early 2011 support it if they are running OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. The resolution will depend on your Apple TV (2 Gen is 720 and 3rd Gen 1080) and wifi, it will lose some quality but I find it minimal. It does also mirror the sound.

If it's showing the red disabled screen due to incorrect passcodes then you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad via your computer's iTunes and restore/resync your content to it

I'm on my iPad, so I don't know if this is the page with an actual download. I don't see a button, but assume that is because I am on an iPad. It is in the DL section of Apple downloads.

Why does my Iphone 4s connect to my Wi-Fi network and latter in the day fail to connect until I reboot the router

Why does my Iphone 4s connect to my wi-fi with a password and latter in the day fail to connect until I reboot the router? Is there a setting on my router that would avoid this issue. All my other devices connect alright

OK so it now looks like on my iPhone 5 iwth iOS 6.1 the LTE network is conflicting with my home wifi (Airport Extreme). At the Apple store the LTE signal is lost in and wifi works like a charm. At home tired all of the "fixes"
-No security
-WEP
-Reset network,
-Complete reset and reload on the phone
-ETC ETC ETC
Just turned off the cell radio and it worked. Turned on the cell radio but kept LTE off and it worked.
Apple let's get a fix so we can use your "great" phone. I have just received a BB Z10 from work and it seems to work flawlessly.

Itunes and computer does not recognize Ipod USB connection

First off, I know this has been discussed over and over, but I am not getting any difinative answers so, I will start a new post. I have a Ipod mini and have had it for some time without any problems. Recently I added new music to Itunes and wanted to transfer it to my Ipod, but when I connect the USB cable it does will light up the screen to let me know that it has been connected, but it will not update the ipod and itunes will not recognize it and only a few times has it even charged the battery. I have tried to update itunes, update ipod (which didn't do any good since it is not being recognized), restored my ipod with play/menu, tried different usb outlets, and today I am going to get my sister's cable and try it. What am I doing wrong?!?!?!? I am going crazy about this. Thanks for any other suggestions.

Finally, I got it to work again. This is what I did. I doubt this is what changed anything but I reset all of my settings back to factory settings on the Ipod as far as backlight, shuffle, ect. I don't think this is what helped, but who knows with these things. Then I plugged it into the computer and it did show that it was charging (usually it did not even recognize enough to charge). Then I tried a different USB cable from my sister's Ipod and the first thing it did was ask to update Ipod and I did (I had to to plug it in to the wall to complete update) then I plugged it back in my computer and it finally worked! My husband thought I was an idiot because I was cheering every time it recognized something until I was basically jumping up and down when everything was updated. For now everything is back to normal so I love my Ipod again. Although my sister will get my old USB cable back seeing that she dropped her Ipod in water and hers does not work at all. Which reminds me to start another post about that. Thanks for all the support.

Fn+F5 does not work for Wireless Connections.

Hi, I have Lenovo G580 Notebook. I have recently upgraded to Windows 8 PRO. I have installed all the required driver and components from Lenovo Drivers support website (Including the Power Management Software). When I had Windows 7, I used to press Fn+F5 on the keyboard to access the shortcut to wireless connections. But in Windows 8, when I press Fn+F5, It displays Airplane Mode ON/OFF. In Windows 8 PC settings, the wireless as well as Bluetooth options have greyed out. I have installed the right Bluetooth driver (Atheros AR3011 Bluetooth 3.0) and wireless driver (Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 Wireless network driver). But still no way to turn on the Wireless network and Bluetooth.
What to do? Any Ideas?

Remove Energy Management for Windows 8 and install version for Windows 7, Fn+F5 should work just fine.

I secured my network and now my AirPort and Apple TV are not recognized

How to set up Air POrt and APple TV units after changing to a secured system.

Perform the following, stopping with the first one which works:
1. Open the Mac App Store's Purchases tab. If you're prompted to accept the applications into your Apple ID, do so.
2. Move them out of the Applications folder(they may need to be put into the Trash temporarily), and then see if you can download them for free from their individual product pages. If you're asked to buy them, see #3.
3. Click here, contact Apple, and wait for a response.
4. Buy them.

Network and Sharing Center: You are currently not connected to any networks!

This happened all of the sudden, I restarted the system and BOOM!
After noticing the icon with the Exclamation mark at the system tray, there was nothing wrong with communication but the reporting is really messed up!
I've uninstalled the NIC driver and reinstalled it, reviewed services permission and if they are running but still no lucky here...
It's Win 8.1 Pro x64, the computer is member of a domain and I'm surely online, otherwise I could not be writing this post! ;)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

did you upgrade your Windows 8.1 from XP?

Check OP reply:
A follow up for anyone reading this. My problem was apparently caused by upgrading from XP and usinging the keep files and settings option. Though there are very limited items brought over from an XP installation, something buried somewhere disabled the
network connections.
To fix this, Windows 8 has a new feature called reset. This basically does setup all over again if you choose the erase files option. You have to enter the product key again when you do this. It is a clean installation. I had to update the graphic
card drivers, add Media Center back in, install the HD Homerun Prime software, run the cable advisor, do TV setup and finally have it working as I had planned.
I suggest try same procedure (if you upgrade from XP to Windows 8.1), choose reset and reinstall back all the drivers

I recently changed the password for my home network and now my MP495 printer will not connect.

Hi, First time caller, long time listener............
I am running Win 7 on all of the pcs in the house with an Android or two as well. I had to change the pw for my linksys router this past weekend and I noticed today that I can not get on as the "printer is offline". I have done the obvious cycling of pcs , router and printer. I have also tried checking / unchecking the use printer offline. Do I need to redownload the drivers and attach the printer by usb and reinstall it? Its been a while since I installed it and I can't remember if it needed a password to connect or not.
Thank you, I appreciate your time.

Hi Trilo,
Since you changed the password to your wireless router, you will need to reinstall the drivers on your computer to reconnect the printer to your network. Prior to reinstalling, you will want to ensure that the wireless LAN setting on the printer is enabled. To do this, press the Maintenance button on the printer (looks like a pair of pliers and a screwdriver) repeatedly until the symbol that looks like "G" appears in the LCD, then press the <COLOR> button to enable wireless LAN.
Once the wireless LAN has been enabled, please click here to go to the DRIVERS AND SOFTWARE page for the PIXMA MP495. Once on the initial download page for your model, please do the following:
1. Verify that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop-down menu is correct, and if it is not, please click the drop-down menu to select your operating system.
2. Next, please click on the red arrow next to the "RECOMMENDED FOR YOU" section and click the MP drivers file. When you do, a red DOWNLOAD button will appear. Please click on the checkbox below the DOWNLOAD button, then click the red DOWNLOAD button to begin the download. The time for the download process may vary depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the file being downloaded.
Once the file has been downloaded, please double-click on it to reinstall the printer wirelessly.
Hope this helps!

I bought an iphone of my friend and used my blackberry sim in it, it say i have signal on 3g but imessage and twitter does not work when not connected to wifi, and i dont know how to get it to work out of the house?

The phone is not stolen but it does not work out side of the house

if it doesnt match that means your iPhone is not provisioned for the carrier you are trying to use. Your iPhone would need to be unlocked in order to use on other carriers. You will need to contact your carrier to see if this iPhone is unlocked py providing them the IMEI. If the iPhone is not unlocked you will need to contact the carrier that the iPhone is locked to to see if they will unlock the device to use on another carrier.

Anyconnect NAM, does not disable windows wireless supplicant

I am having some issues with anyconnect nam for wireless. When i install nam with a profile, my wireless works fine, and authenticates as it should, no problem there. I can however not figure out how to get nam to remove the built-in windows supplicant in the tray, which shows me a tray icon, where a user can browse the list of SSID's currently broadcasted, i only want the nam supplicant's own list of ssid's to be shown. Any suggestion on how to accomplish this ?

Windows Network Status Task Tray Icon
Network Access Manager overrides Windows network management. After installing Network Access Manager, the Windows networking icon in the task bar may confuse users, because the user can no longer use the network status icon to connect to networks.
You can remove the Windows network icon from the task bar by setting 'Remove the networking icon' in a Windows group policy. This setting only affects the tray icon, the user can still create native wireless networks using the Control Panel.

Why does my ipod lose wireless connection

So I bought this iPOD touch 3g, 8GB that was recently "refreshed" from Best Buy (i bought it from a private party after he received it back). After charging it up I downloaded an app that I use to control a sonos music player. Problem is that the iPOD will not stay connected to my network. My wireless is a month old Netgear 802.11a/b/g/n router and all of the laptops in the house connect perfectly. the iPOD touch cuts in and out every minute or two.I went into the settings/general folder and did a network settings reset, but that did not cure the problem.Any suggestions?

this could have countless reasons but it might be your to far from router your router might be haveing electrical problems or your ipod is trying to join to many networks

I have a dv8t-1000 and the wlan and treble keep going on and off. I loose the wireless connection.

I need to know how to open the laptop to replace the card that controls the wlan and treble. I tried to find a manual to show how to get the laptop open and then be able to get the card number so I can order one. I have removed the screws but can't get it appart. Can you tell me the type of card that I would need to resolve the problem so I don't loose the wireless conection every 5 minutes.
Thanks
