Satellite A60: Cannot connect to internet via modem - no dial-up

In my Satellite A60, WinXP Home, when I try to connect to the Internet via the Toshiba modem, I get Error 6: invalid handle, and after some attempts I get Error 50: all devices connected / request not supported.
Device Manager / Network / RAS Async Adapter shows an error (black exclamation point on a yellow field).
The driver is asyncmac.sys = MS Remote Access serial network driver.
I have:
- tried to uninstall RAS Async Adapter, but no chance, says it may be necessary for boot-up
- uninstalled / re-installed modem
- updated winXP via windows update
- updated bios / modem / network drivers from Toshiba
No luck, the RAS Async Adapter error is still there.
Any suggestion?
Thanks
Alessio - Italy

I think this problem concerns Windows XP and RAS Async Adapter, not the modem.
The modem dials correctly the number, negotiates user and password, and then I get the error 6 and 50.
I found on the internet this tip to uninstall and re-install the RAS Async Adapter:
http://forums.practicallynetworked.com/showthread.php?t=6781
I have followed the instructions and executed RArepair.exe.
It uninstalls and reinstalls the the RAS Async Adapter, but RAS is still in error (yellow field in Device manager).

My macbook pro cannot connect to internet via wifi

I have a Macbook Pro 2010 OS X 10.8.3. I cannot connect to internet via wifi (Air por). My Macbook Pro does not recognize my network and when I select it from the list of network it asks for my network password. when I type in my password a dialog box gives me timeout error. Please could anyone help me. I am using ethernet for my connection at the moment. Do I need to reset my macbookpro? if yes, what will happen to my applications and operating system (mountain lion)?

When you use the Airport utility what happens?
What is in the System Preferences control panel for Network settings?

Wi-Fi Setup Considerations
Things to consider before you begin
Start with a plan for the physical layout. Depending on whether you have an existing Wi-Fi network, or if you are using your AirPort Express as a standalone Wi-Fi device, there are several options available for you to choose from.
When using Ethernet, Cat6 cable is recommended.
The layout you choose should take into account environmental factors such as physical access, location, range, radio frequency interference, etc.
You will need to consider what AirPort Utility settings to adopt.
You will need to know whether you are using an AirPort Express (802.11b/g) or an AirPort Express (802.11a/b/g/n).
If you will be using more than one Wi-Fi base station, it may be helpful to read the article Extending the range of your wireless network by adding additional Wi-Fi base stations.

Cannot connect to Internet via newly created wireless network

Just purchased an Aiport Express router this week. Connected it to an RCA DCM425 Time Warner Cable modem and it worked fine out of the box. Now, after running the Airport Utility to create a new password-protected network, I cannot connect to the Internet. Both my PowerBook G4 (running Mac OS X 10.4.10) and Windows PC (XP SP2) can connect to the new network but then cannot access the Internet. After being frustrated for a few hours with this I performed a hard reset and then could connect to the default apple network the AX was transmitting. But now I tried creating a new network again and again the same problem. No internet access despite Network Status indicating otherwise. Please help! I purchased this product b/c I thought it was supposed to be an easier setup.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Sorry, but the 169.x.x.x IP address is internally generated by the iPod (and iPhone) and indicates that a network has been detected but no IP address has been issued. Your friends iPhone was not connected to your ad hoc network either - it connected to the internet through the 3G network.
You should read through the Vista help screens on ad hoc networking for some insight how this works. You should be able to get some ideas there.
In the mean time, $40 or less will buy you a very capable wireless router with four Ethernet ports and will simplify your network tremendously. Having used Windows ICS for a long time, the addition of a router and a real network simplified things so much.

After most recent update (3.6.10) cannot connect to internet via any browser or application (Windows Vista)

I recently updated Firefox to 3.6.10 on a Windows Vista machine and have been unable to connect to the internet with any application since. Any help you can provide would be graciously appreciated.
Upon receiving the "Firefox has updated and needs to restart" message, I continued to browse the internet for a period of time. When I finished what I was doing, I restarted the browser. When it came back up, it failed to connect to the internet. Signal strength from wireless network is "Very Good" and indicates that I am connected to the internet. I have tried the following with no success:
- Attempted to connect to internet with Internet Explorer
- Restarted the machine
- Disabled Windows firewall
- Checked that Internet Options settings had not changed
- Connected to different wireless networks
After each of the above, I tried to connect with IE and Firefox.
As an amateur it seems that this isn't a Firefox problem, but I have to assume since the connection was good immediately before restarting the program and the completely inoperative after restarting, that it has something to do with the installation. Thank you very much for your time.
Reed

PROBLEM SOLVED:
In Internet Options under Connections > Settings, "Use system settings" was selected. Changing the selection to "Automatically detect proxy settings for this network" in connection settings allowed all applications to connect to the internet.
Why "System settings" continues to work on my XP system after the update and why it worked on the Vista system before the update but not after the update is a mystery... but as long as it works, who cares

Pc cannot connect to internet via airport

Hi
I have an older Airport Extreme base station (round pyramid style) that is fine with my Mac (MacBook Air, iMac, iPad-2, iPhone 4+) and other wifi devices.
However, we also have various PC laptops (needed for work) that can connect to the Airport base station (PC= green line from pc to base, red line crossed through to internet Windows graphic) but NOT to the web (?)
We have high speed DSL, and a modem plugged directly into the base station.
How can I set Airport up or the PC laptops, so that the PC laptops can have access to the web and everything stays the same for all of my other stuff?
Very behind in my work...

Hi,
I believe you have the problem that I was able to correct last weekend on my son's pc laptop by updating the atheros wireless adapter drivers. Here are two simple options to test if you need to get an updated driver for the pc wireless adapter. The first is to just connect the laptop to the Airport Extreme with a network cable. If that is not an option, enable the guest network with no security on the Airport Extreme and connect the pc laptop to the guest network. If either method works, the wireless security method is the problem and a new driver was the solution.

Macbook Pro cannot connect to Internet via Ethernet / Cosmetic Issues

My Wireless Router died last night, so I connected my PC Desktop directly to the Modem. It worked like a charm.
I then decided to connect my MacBook Pro (2.4GHZ, OS X 10.5.3) to the Modem and...it didn't work. I tried going into the network settings (turning off the AirPort Card, moving the Ethernet to the top of the list, etc.) and I still could not get it to work.
Aside from taking it in, is there anything that I can do to try to remedy the situation, maybe a setting that I've missed? Also, there is a tiny ding on front of the bottom case. Can I get it fixed if I have the "Accidental Insurance?"

Was the MBP working when you had the router?
Also, did you power cycle the modem when you switched machines? Most cable modems remember the ethernet MAC address of the computer that was last connected to it, and will not permit another machine to connect until the unit is fully power cycled (turned off and back on). This is to enforce network provider policies of one computer at a time per account. (Most ISPs want extra money for extra machines.) The reason you can use multiple machines with a router is because the router performs some special functions to make multiple machines appear as a single machine to the outside world.

Automatically connect the Internet via dial up connection?

Hi all,
I am using LabVIEW 6i. I require to connect the internet via modem. I want this to be done automatically. I read some of the discussion here which discuss some AT protocols. Sorry, but I am not aware of these protocols.
After this auto connection I want to get data from some links. I think this I could using URL property of the windows' browser. If some one has other options please let me know.
Thanking you.
Vishal Shah.

I'm not sure I understand your problem. Do you want to dial up a flow controller and talk to it via
Modbus? I am familiar with Modbus and modem connects.

They all say "drivers for this are not installed.".... Also went into "system devices" and found 9 other things that no longer have drivers installed... also says there is no "sound device" installed!!!!!
Is my laptop completely knackered or is it worth trying to sort this out. I am a complete idiot when it comes to stuff like this.. so be gentle with me.... do I have to find every individual driver and re-install them??.. BTW... there is no wireless card in the back.. (Already checked)...

I have a Mac connected to Internet via DSL modem. Just bought iPad (today). What hardware do I need to set up wireless LAN so iPad can be used anywhere in house? Will Linksys work with Apple?

I have a Mac connected to Internet via DSL modem. Just bought an iPad2 and need to know what hardware do I need to add wireless LAN so I can use iPad anywhere in the house. Will a Linksys router work with Apple? Can Mac be "hardwired" and iPad wireless? Probably stupid questions but I need to learn. Thanks.

Thanks for the info. You are correct. I was speaking in general terms here based on my experience with the two devices in day to day use, and not in terms of exact specifications.
A better choice would have been to say that the "coverage" is about the same with the edge going to the Extreme....due to the newer mutliple antenna design.
We sure could use more help on the forums. Hope that you will become a regular.
Hi Bob
RF is a minefield, but one that I have worked in for ages, the most critical factor in my experience is location, location, location!
Better routers have more intelligently designed antenna systems, output power as I said is the same, radiation pattern (coverage) is dependent on antennas and physical location more than all other factors.

My macbook pro is connected to internet via my time capsule but my iPad and iPhone won't. it shows wifi connection to the time capsule but when i go on to the internet on the iPad or iPhone, it comes up with network error. can anyone help?

This can be caused by a number of issues.
Was everything working and then suddenly stopped??
Or is this a new clean setup and has never worked.
Do you have a cable modem which is not a router and the TC setup in bridge? That will cause it. The TC must be in router mode, ie dhcp and nat.
Check the IP the MBP gets including dns and gateway..
Then check the ipad/iphone.. post what IP dns and gateway (router in applespeak) they get.
