Lenova on Vista - wireless is crashing modem

Hi,
My Lenova 3000 N200 loaded with Vista is constantly crashing my telus wireless modem. It will not stay logged on. It used to work and is nothing but problems now. The dialup works fine. Any suggestions before I toss this gem would be appreciated,
PS, my wireless modem is working great with both my Mac and other PC using XP in my studio.
regards,

Try to reinstall windows.

WRT160 wireless network / zyxel modem problem

Hi All,
I want to ask some help with this one. I have a pc (vista) wireless connected to the WRT160 router. This router is connected to my ADSL-connection with a Zyxel modem. Everything by the book. Unfortunatly I can't get on the internet. If I connect my pc directly with this modem with a LAN-connection I can go on the internet. It seems that the router doesn't 'talk' with the modem and therefor I can't get on the internet. Can someone help me with this problem?
Thanx in advance.

Access the setup page of the router by launching an
Browser and type on the address bar, 192.168.1.1 and press enter. When
it prompts for the username and password, leave the username field
empty and provide password as "admin" (Without quotes)
click on ok.
On the main setup page the ""Internet Connection Type"" should be
on ""Obtain IP Automatically - DHCP “. Click on the Save Settings
button.
Now click on the sub tab ""MAC address clone"".
- Click on enable
Click Clone & click save settings
Check WAN Ip on Status page of router ....
If getting Valid Ip .... try going online
If you are getting Ip - 192.168.1.X ...change the LAN Ip to 192.168.2.1 ....Power cycle for 3-4 minutes ...
Try going online
If still not working ...use Internet Connection type as PPPOE .... Use Username & Password provided by Service Provider ....
Click save settings....
Look for WAN IP address again under status page ....

Satellite M110: Wireless Broadband USB Modem fails to Install

Hello all,
I have a M110 Satelite mahine running XP SP3.
I have tried two different brands of Wireless USB modems. Both install the modem portion of the drivers corectly and the Device Manager shows this. However the Coms Port drivers do not install. The installation wizard gives the message "Driver's did not install correctly, Access is denied".
The modem providers cannot explain the failure as the modems will work on my desktop (vista) machine without any issues just plug and play so to speak.
I have tried -
1)disabling all anitvirus and firewall programs.
2)disabling and/or removing all other modems and internet connections
3)updating BIOS
4)re-starts completed after all above steps
5)Checked all drivers are the latest and most up to date.
Reverting to the "out of box" state by re-loading windows is not an option as I run a number programs on my machine which are no longer available in the format I use in my business. Some suggestion has been made by one tech that the Windows Registry Values are incorrect and are blocking the installation?

You said, that the Wireless USB modems works on your desktop with Vista. Do the modems support Windows XP or Windows XP SP3?
I would make a downgrade to SP2.
Furthermore I think the best way would be a reinstallation of Windows. If its not an option, test it on an other HDD in notebook.
So you have no risk to loose your data.

The connection speed is missing from those hub3 figures.

There is some information on this page, which should also apply to the 8961ND.

You can ignore the DNS settings and leave them at default, if you do not want to use OpenDNS.

Xp wired base with vista wireless laptop

HELP!!!! totally new to this stuff-I have a linksys WRT54GS V 6.0 router-have connected it to my ethernet wired XP home computer and want to add my VISTA wireless laptop to my home network with file sharing enabled. My laptop works off the net at this stage, but I cannot access files from the base computer and vice versa-what am I doing wrong??
Anyone out there able to help this newbie??

Luimar, thank you for helping. I have file & print sharing activated on all three computers (two desktop both running XP & the wireless laptop running Vista). On one of the desktops, I have an HP Deskjet 970cse, connected via a parallel cable. On the other desktop, I have an HP Photosmart 2610xi all-in-one, connected via a USB cable. Just in case...I also have new WRT54G (version 8) wireless router that I just replaced my old router with.
I thought the problem might have been that I was trying to connect a wireless laptop running Vista to a printer on a pc running XP--such that the Vista drivers were not being loaded from the desktop running XP. The Microsoft site says that this doesn't matter--that the drivers for both of these printers is already in the operating system. At this point, I have no idea what to do next.

Bought an ipad 2 for christmas but it won't connect to my wireless. My modem/router is an Arris 653 B eurospec DOCSIS. The wifi works on an unsecured network I have in the bldg but not my own network. Anyone have any suggestions?

I'm not familiar with your router but are there any buttons on the front or back of it because sometimes you need to pair the router in order for your PC, laptop, phone or iPad to connect wirelessly with it?
From the routers I have used there are normally two buttons on the front or back (apart from the power button), pressing one of them allows you a few minutes to enter the required password on your iPad. Best look at the instructions for the router.

hi, I am looking to buy wireless router or modem/router wireless, but I want a model where I can easily switch on/off the wireless while keeping the Ethernet cable always on my computer and turn on/off wireless (a switch) when I need it! does linksys have such a product? thanks.

i think linksys has not yet created a router that has a physical on and off switch for wireless connection

5. under driver storage install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager
6. under bios install bios update.. it will turn off your system thus turn it back on afterwards

VIsta Wireless Problems with New FIOS Install July 2009

I recently had FIOS telephone, INternet andTV intstalled. All was well except on my Vitsa laptop I cannot maintain a steady wireless conneciton with the Actiontec MI424WR router. I hit the Web and found out that many have had this complaint and that there is an ongoing conversation about whose fault the problem is. I had flawless service under TIme- Warner with my Vista Wireless so I did not intially assign blame to Vista or my laptop. I do recall the Verizon installer mentinoed "problems with Vista" but he did not elaborate. I spent all day yesterday researching and attempting every fix suggested on numerous web sites. All failed except one.
Essentially, I now use my LinkSys Router in front of the Actiontec MI424WR router. I found the instructions to do this on numerous web sites after researching FIOS Vista wireless problems. The LinkSys router handles only wireless. Now my Vista laptop never drops a connection. I still have acess to FIOS TV guide and on demand so the fix did not interfere with FIOS router TV functions.
THe bottom line is that it would appear that there is a problem with the Actiontec MI424WR router and Vista. Fortunately for me I had the Linksys ROuter available. Verizon - you need to look into this. Based on what I have experienced I cannot recommend FIOS internet for those with VIsta computers until tjhis is addressed.
From what I have researched, Verizon claims it is a Vista problem. Beta testors of WIndows 7 have reported the same issues with FIOS and Actiontec MI424WR router. My experience and that of others who have devised the fix I employed would clearly suggest that Verizon needs to look into this and get this problem solved.
Steve B.

My neighbor had a similar issue. When trying to figure it out we found out that there is a problem with some of the Intel drivers when connecting to some g class routers. We upgraded the wireless drivers on the computer and bingo the problem went away. This was on an Intel-R pro wireless. If you have Intel-R pro wireless on your computer, try upgrading to the current driver set and see if that helps you too.

Non-Wireless Capable Router/Modem for Xfinity???

Non-Wireless Capable Router/Modem for Xfinity/Comcast???
Apologies up front since I’m sure I have the terminology wrong, but here’s the situation:
Currently we have a modem (or router or cable-modem, I don’t know the difference) that we rent from Xfinity/Comcast. It is a Model DHG536C, Thomson RCA. I’m pretty sure (but not 100% sure) that this doesn’t have any wireless signal emanating from it. On one side of this box is a cable TV type connector from the outside world, and on the other is an Ethernet-type cable.
The Ethernet-type cable goes from this Comcast box to our Apple Airport Extreme. This is the 6th generation model ME918LL/A 802.11AC. From the Airport Extreme we send internet access to Apple devices through the house, both via wireless and also cables (USB and Ethernet).
Comcast sent us a “free” replacement modem (we rent the modem from them) a year or two ago so that we could take advantage of some new capabilities they installed on our line (don’t know specifically what they were, but possibly speedier access). However, the install was a bit of a nightmare since the replacement they sent also emitted a wireless signal and there were issues between the wireless emitted between by their new modem versus our Airport Extreme. Comcast is justifiably not renowned for their customer support, and given my lack of computer knowledge, I couldn’t figure it out. So we returned the upgrade modem and stayed with our old one.
We are now getting requests from Comcast to throw out our old modem and install another new one. So here’s the question: can we get a modem that doesn’t emit a wireless signal, that just converts the cable signal from outside the house into an Ethernet cable that we can plug into our Airport Extreme? That way we shouldn’t run into any of the issues we had last time.
And two related questions:
Will this noticeably speed up our internet service? We’re actually happy with what we have right now but perhaps we are just used to it.
Can I buy this new modem on Amazon or from Apple to bypass Comcast (to get rid of the monthly rental fee, and to get something that may have better customer support)?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
And any teaching/education about the proper name for the Comcast “box” without wireless, and our Airport Extreme would be fun as well (router, modem, cable-modem, etc).
Thank you!

So here’s the question: can we get a modem that doesn’t emit a wireless signal, that just converts the cable signal from outside the house into an Ethernet cable that we can plug into our Airport Extreme?
Simple modems do exist, but the question would be whether one of them would be compatible with the Comcast service. So, you really have a question for Comcast support here.
The question would be whether Comcast can provide a simple modem.........like you have now.......and not a modem/router or gateway type of device, which you really don't need, since you already have a router, and just need a simple modem.
Will this noticeably speed up our internet service? We’re actually happy with what we have right now but perhaps we are just used to it.
Possibly, if you are already paying for faster service, but your current modem is not capable of working at higher speeds. Again, a question for Comcast support here.
Can I buy this new modem on Amazon or from Apple to bypass Comcast (to get rid of the monthly rental fee, and to get something that may have better customer support)?
Possibly, if Comcast can provide you with a list of modems that will work with their service. Apple does not make modems, so they would not be able to help on that product.

Vista machine called "crash"

Unfortunately, I have an Hp desktop, 9426, that I've decided to call "Crash"
I think the name is befitting. I can expect maybe misguidedly so, an occasional problem, but this machine has had problems for way too long. It used to blue screen occasionally, but its maddening now.
Two weeks ago, I had a new hard drive installed because the self diagnostics said it was "bad."
It would crash, always giving the same line on the BSOD.
I sent it in for service at a Staples store, & they said after 5 visits they couldn't find any problem they could pin down, but the error is always the same.
So, they did a fresh reinstall of Vista.
Still crashing, especially when I try to turn it off using the windows shut down.
As I was doing something else earlier tonight , it crashed 3 times, at at the same minute and hour according to the
microsoft log.
I'm fed up to say the least.
When last a STAPLES, they said it didn't crash at all, but i'm sure they didn't watch it every minute as this cycles from BSOD to the main screen in only a couple of minutes.
Any help here?
Thanks

Hello again gvasale.
The page file is like a "virtual RAM" on your machine. I am sorry for the confusion but you do NOT have to upload your page file for me! That would take hours even on my broadband connection. I'll try to better explain the steps.
To configure Windows to create a dumpfile try the following.
Go to your Control Panel and select "System."
On the left side select "Advanced system settings."
Under "Startup and recovery" select "Settings."
Uncheck "Automatically restart."
Ensure that "Write an event to the system log" is checked.
Note the location of the dump file. This is what I'll need you to upload. It is basically a text file.
Click OK to save your changes.
To increase the size of your page file you want to try the following.
Go to your Control Panel and select "System."
On the left side select "Advanced system settings."
Under the "Performance" section select "Settings."
Select the "Advanced" tab.
You will see a "Change" button under "Virtual Memory." Select this.
Select "Custom Size."
Make the initial size 9000 and the maximum size 9000.
Save the changes and reboot your PC.
Let me know if that helps and I'll be watching for that dump file.
Have a lovely day!
Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"

Does Timecapsule work with the new xfinity wireless gateway 1 modem / router?

My husband hooked up the new xfinity wireless gateway 1 modem / router today and now I can't access my Timecapsule to back up my Mac. Comcast has not been able to help me...and they can't get me back on our old Comcast modem so I can access my Timecapsule, which has worked fine for several years. Can anyone offer a solution?

Thanks for the suggestion. I have no idea why but all of a sudden the Time Capsule backed up my Mac before I had time to do as you suggested...although the back up process was very slow. I'll see if it gets faster over the next few days...will resort to your suggestion if needed. Thanks again!
