No Internet Connectivity Following Windows 7 Critical Update August 19th 20112

I experienced a Windows 7 automatic update (Downloaded and installed August 18th 2012 - evening) and when I attempted to access the internet on August 19th, I had no connectivity. Issue is not with wifi or service provider since another laptop functions
normally. I went to system restore as of 15th August and was able to access as normal. But upon closing down the session, the absence of the updates triggers another Windows 7 update automatic install and the exact symptoms return upon restart. Any idea
what the critical updates were for this period and which of them would cause this failure? Are there clear instructions available for starting from an acceptable state (August 15th) and only adding the updates that are compatible? What are the implications
of not installing a Windows 7 critical update? What resident programs are likely sources of incompatibility. I have the usual assortment of annoying Dell crap on my system and I use Mcafee antivirus (which is current and has completed a scan finding
nothing since this problem) but not a whole lot of other software that I can imagine would cause a conflict.

You're welcome!
If you find the one that's causing the problem, Google the KB number and see if anyone else has had a problem with it, and what they did to fix it. Odds are, missing one update is not going to put your system at serious risk.
I would imagine that if there are enough logged complaints about an update, there would be an updated update (like that :-)? ) some time in the future. It has happened before. I wouldn't put too much stock in Microsoft monitoring these forums closely, but
I'm sure they must have something in place alerting them of a mass of particular problem posts.
I can't comment on the "Jumpstart wireless filter adapter" setting since I don't have that option on my laptop's wireless adaptor properties.

Windows critical update blocks Application Express (APEX) with IE6 browser

We recently started having problems with APEX running on an IE6 browser. You get 'page not found' error. It was just 1 user, then 2, then others, on different days. It was weird and we didn't know what was causing it. Our DBA found it quite by accident. He was in APEX with IE6, then did a MS/Windows critical update and now cannot use IE6 with APEX. We are looking at the patches now to try to isolate which one is causing the issue. I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue. It would be Microsoft's latest critical update.
Carolyn

Apex version 3.2.1
DB version 10.2
Web server architecture (?)
Browser: MS Internet Explorer version 6.0.290.5512.xpsp_sp3_gdr.100427-1636
Just trying to access the APEX URL gives 'page not found' error.
We are still on IE6 because a lot of our vendor supplied solutions are still on IE6 so until we get those resolved we have to keep this browser although we are working on a virtualization tool that will help. In the meantime we have told our users they have to switch to Firefox to use their APEX applications and that means constantly switching back and forth between browsers for them. We have identified the MS critical update patch for this but I am looking for a better solution instead of the interim solution of switching browsers.
Thanks,
Carolyn

Delete and recreate your settings in the Network preference pane. If you're connecting to a wireless network, also delete the AirPort network password(s) in the Keychain Access application.

While downloading app update on ipad lost internet connection and now the updates are not updating. How do I fix this?

While downloading a common application update, I lost my internet connection and now the updates are not updating. How do I fix this?

Try this:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• Then restart & see if you can update.

HP Pavilion 15t Issues with Limited Internet Connectivity on Windows 8

So, I just received my new HP Pavilion 15t-e000 CTO Notebook PC last week, it runs Windows 8, & it's a 64 bit.
The only problem I've had is staying connected to my wireless Internet. The connection will cut out at random intervals saying "Limited" instead of "Connected". I constantly have to disconnect and connect to my wireless Internet. It is especially frustrating when I am trying to download something that takes longer than a couple of minutes because the Internet connection cuts out and I have to start the process all over again.
I have tried pretty much every "fix" people have posted that have worked for some people. No such luck for me. Sometimes it seems like it will stay connected and then I try to connect to a web page or download something and it goes out again.
- Turning off the "Allow computer to turn off this device to save power" under Power Management in the Properties section of my Wireless connection.... DID NOT WORK
- Using the command prompt to reset the network adapter ... DID NOT WORK
- Running the Network and Internet and whatever else Troubleshooters ... DID NOT WORK ***Update: If I run the network connection test via the HP Help/Support center on my desktop while the connection says Limited, I receive the notice that the "default gateway was not available" and the router was reset and issue fixed, etc. BUT, if I run the test while the wireless says Connected, the test always says there is no problem. And even though the test "fixed" the issue, it didn't because the Internet always cuts out again.
- Windows Updates has installed new updates a few times ... DID NOT WORK
- Forgetting the Wireless Network and Setting it Up as a new one again ... DID NOT WORK
- Using my computer right next to my wireless router ... DID NOT WORK
The wireless router being used is: Cisco Linksys Wireless-G 2.4GHz Broadband Router and our network is WPA with a security code. We also have a SpeedStream DSL Internet thing (sorry, I don't know what it is called). The compatibility center says this router is compatible with Windows 8 by the way. Other computers running Windows 7 and Windows Vista, iPhones, and iPads all work fine.
My laptop uses Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 2230 and the light is on and it always says "device is working properly" in Properties.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated because I am at my wits end.
Thanks
This question was solved.
View Solution.

So, it seems my issue with the Limited Internet connection has been resolved. I didn't use my computer for two days and this afternoon when I turned it on I was still having issues. However, I went into the HP Support Assistant and it popped up that I had some updates to download and install, so I let it do its thing. It took a while because the Internet kept cutting out, but once the update for the Intel Wireless finally installed, my connection has STAYED CONNECTED. Finally!
I don't know why when I went into the wireless properties it said "device is working properly" and when I tried to Update the driver it said "your driver is the latest version" or whatever.
I suggest you go to the HP Support Assistant and check for updates in the "Updates and Tune-Ups" section. It was kind of random, but knock on wood my Wireless connection issue looks to be gone.
Hope this helps
P.S.
Here's a screen shot of what the HP Support Assistant (it is the one with the big question mark logo) main screen looks like :

Remove Internet connection reminder window

Hello,
Is there a way to remove that window that is always reminding me that my Internet connection is still on? It pops up every 15 minutes and it is getting annoying. But I can't find any option button to stop this. Where is it?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Frédéric

Are you using a dial-up connection or ADSL/DSL?
If dial-up: Set your Internal Modem preferences to never disconnect, disconnect after a longer period of inactivity, or to not disconnect if switched to another user:1. Open System Preferences > Network.
2. Select Internal Modem in the Show pop-up menu.
3. Select the PPP tab.
4. Click the PPP Options... button.
5. A sheet appears containing the various disconnect-related preferences. Make changes accordingly.
6. Click OK.
7. Click Apply Now.
8. Confirm your intent to apply the changes.
If ADSL/DSL: The Disconnect options are a bit buried. This should sort it out:1. Open System Preferences > Network.
2. Select Built-in Ethernet from the Show pop-up menu.
3. Select the PPPoE tab.
4. Click PPPoE Options. A sheet appears.
5. Change the "Prompt" and the various "Disconnect" options in the sheet, as desired.
6. Click OK. The sheet closes.
7. Click Apply Now.
8. Confirm your intent to apply the changes.Note that some of the information above is from the "Networking" chapter of my book, Troubleshooting Mac® OS X, Tiger Edition.

Problems after recent "windows critical update" 8 pm 3/13/2012

I was notified around 8pm that a critical update was ready to load from "Windows Update" so I allowed the update to load after I shutdown all open windows. After the update loaded and the computer restarted there was a screech emitting from the system speakers. I found the following changes: my volume control now has 3 bars the usual volume bar and now a "system sound bar" and a "Stereo Mix (IDT High Definition Audio Codec)" bar, adjusting any of the bars has no effect on the screech, strangely also changed was my help file page. I know request held and no longer get the HP help page but instead the windows 7 help page.
I ran system restore and restored the system successfully to restore point at 9:30 am but all that did was removed the update but did not change the sound issue. Immediately before allowing the update to install I was listening to a recorded stream and all was well.
Any Ideas or suggestions? All drivers claim devices are running normally, and another restore to yesterday did not have an affect either.
Running Windows 7 Ult. 64-bit on a HP dv7t-4000 CTO, I do have extended warranty and I haven't contacted them yet.
Thanks,
Nick

Slow Wifi Internet Connection on Windows 7

I recently got a brand new iMac 27 inch (late 2013) I need to have Windows installed because of some compatibility problems with some programs I use for my work. I follow all the instruction on how to install Windows using bootcamp and I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate Edition. Everything is working fine but my Internet connection when I am using the Windows partition is ridiculously slow, on the contrary when I am using the MacOSx the Internet connection is fine. Can anyone help me to solve it?

Is there anyone that can help me?

new imac running lion 10.7.2 partitioned HD for duel boot and successfully installed windows xp pro (sp2)....have internet through eithernet cable on the mac side but no internet connection on the windows side....need drivers???? please help

I too am running xp spiii on my mac with lion. However I installed xp while running snow leopard then upgraded to lion and both are running fine. If you have the support disc that came with the imac all the relevant drivers are on there. The only other thing i would suggest is that you get spiii and upgrade to that.
Hope that helps

No internet connection on windows xp

i downloaded windows xp sp2 on my mac using bootcamp and it worked fine except i cant get internet while using windows, any suggestions?

I also have problems with Windows Vista Enterprise connecting to the internet. I get wireless connectivity, but the ethernet plug-in does not work. If I reinstall the bootcamp 3.0 drivers then it works until I reboot or turn the computer off. The next time I start Windows, no internet/ network connections and I have to re-install the drivers again. I'm not installing bootcamp drivers every time I have to boot the system. This is NOT a Windows problem - this is Apple.

I have an iPad mini - trying to set up a wifi internet connection on Windows 7 laptop.

Have a new iPad and need to still set it up. Problem is that it needs to connect to a wifi internet connection which I have set up on my Win7 laptop. The iPad mini sees the network but can't connect to it......... What am I doint wrong? I have set the network up via the adhoc network set up and have done everything as per the turorials I have seen, but it still won't to connect. Is this possible and if so, how do I do it? I have tried the ad-hoc network way and the iPad recognises it but can't connect to it. THANKS A MIL

Windows 7 Home Basic does not support ad hoc or hosted network functionality (what Connectify and Virtual Router use). At a minimum you would need to upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. Note the Applies to these editions of Windows 7 statement at the right in this article.

Again using a broadband wireless (WiFi) router is the best way to go presuming its in your budget.

Loosing internet connection after Mountain Lion update

Hi,
I'm working with a MBP 2012 model.
After the update to Mountain Lion, the MBP is loosing the internet connection now and then.
I've did a PRAM reset, but the issue is still present.
Are there any tips oder way to solve the issue?
Thank so far

I'm having the same problem on my brand new 2012 Macbook Pro with Mountain Loin. After being online for a while, Safari or Chrome will just stop connecting to the interent, even though everything says it's connected. I don't have this problem with other computers on the same network that are not upgraded to Mountain Lion yet.
If I restart the computer, it works again for a while.
Very frustrating.
