SP L20 hanging whilst user closing network connections on LAN

I have 2 new laptops on out network Satellite Pro L20. They work ok until the user logs off from he network and the machine hangs on 'closing network connections'. It powers up and down no problem when not connected to the network. I have Win XP SP 2 all the win updates installed, all of the bios upgrades and drivers from the website.
I need HELP.
What should I check and do?? it is still the same hanging on closing network connections and I have to hard boot the laptop to restart, although it does restart eventually if I leave it for 10 minutes.

Hello Sio
Believe me it is not easy to say why this happen exactly because the LAN configuration of your unit is not known to us. First of all you should discuss it with your network administrator. He is the person who knows how it works in your company.
I dont know if you have some folders for sharing. It is possible that someone use the data saved on your notebook and in this situation the notebook can not cut off the connectivity. What is with your IP Address (defined one or you get it automatically)?

Very slow network connection via LAN or Wifi problem

Hello,
I am running Windows xp MCE version on my Macbook 2.2. I have a very bothersome problem with my network speed at work.
When I run Windows on my Mac and connect to the network of my workplace using LAN or Wireless, I can surf the local websites and Email by a very nice speed but when I try to open any page outside the companies website, it is very slow or sometime it does not even open it. In status bar it says "Waiting for www...".
I tried almost everything. The problem does not come from my firewall(I even unistalled it). My network setting are like everybody else. I dissabled the auto Comunication speed. nothing seems to help.
It seems to me that this is a problem with windows on Macbook.
I was wondering has anybody a similar problem?
Does anybody has any solution for that?
Thanks

User gets "This network connection does not exist" when she tryes to log on to Terminal Server (2008 R2)
I got more than 100 users. Shes the only one getting is. We tried four computers (All Windows 7 Pro)
Nothing useful in event viewer to mention.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Does that user able to login previously?
From your comment, it seems that there is some permission issue with that user. As you have checked that user with different system also. Please check that user is added under “Remote Desktop User” local group and also allowed “Allow log on through
Remote Desktop service” permission under group policy. Also please check that when user tries to login it uses “Domainname\Username” format.
In addition for a try, also check by disabling firewall on one particular system.
To add users and groups to the Remote Desktop Users group by using Local Users and Groups snap-in:
1. Click Start > Administrative Tools, Open Computer Management.
2. In the console tree, click the Local Users and Groups node.
3. In the details pane, double-click the Groups folder.
4. Double-click Remote Desktop Users, and then click
Add.
5. In the Select Users dialog box, click Locations to specify the search location.
6. Click Object Types to specify the types of objects you want to search for.
7. Type the name you want to add in the Enter the object names to select (examples) box.
8. Click Check Names.
When the name is located, click OK.
More information:

Error message "network connection reset" only affects one user

I'm running 10.3.9 on a 400Mhz iMac. I have 3 users, myself and my 2 kids. When I try to access a web page using Safari on one of the kid's user accounts I get an error message saying that the server cannot be contacted because the "network connection has been reset", and says to try again later but never works. The odd part is that the other two user accounts can access web pages with no problem.
I have checked my network settings, all user settings/limitations, restarted the computer and modem, tossed all cache and bookmarks for the affected user and placed the com.safari.plist from the user/library/safari folder on the desktop. Still get the same error message.
I would create a new user name but had a hassle with file permissions when I put the old user files in the new user folder.

I see you have Windows Firewall turned on. Do you happen to have any other firewalls or anti-virus in conjunction with this? Sometimes having both turned on will cause issue. Try disabling all of your anti-virus and firewall software and trying again.

How many Samsung Stratosphere users do not have reliable network connectivity using hotspot or tethering?

I am on my 3rd phone in as little as 9 months because I have never been able to stay on the network using the hotspot or tethering. The network keeps disappearing and coing back on. I am in a 4 g area and right across the street from a main Verizon store. My antennae strength is full and my 4g indicator is on but it disappears so much that I cannot rely on network service with my phone. I actually went out and purchased a 4g aircard and that works just fine so I know its the phone and not the network. Its funny I keep getting put back into this phone when its the phone that has the problem. My salesman said after the 3rd phone you will be upgraded to the next best phone so hopefully Motorola Driod 4 will be the key top reliable network connectivity. I wish I knew how widespread this is or has been. I realize not a majority of Stratosphere users probably dont use the hotspot or tethering much but I use it or try to on a daily basis. I love the phone but not the hotspot or tethering capabilities. My newest phone never got any new apps or anything put on and it had problems outta the box.

This phone SUCKS period. I have only had it since July 27 and it has NEVER worked well. I was never told (of course other than small print) that I had two weeks to return and get a totally different phone if not happy. So the 15th day I found that out. They pulled my sim card it worked better for about one week. Than back to crap. So, I did a factory reset as they told me to. It worked for about another 2 weeks maybe. Now back to the same old thing again. Drops calls ALL THE TIME with full network strength I can here them they cannot here. Goes back to factory defaults all the time. Starts not ringing and going only into voice mail. Freezes up where you cannot even shut off, you have to take the battery out. Also, constantly loses connectivity even though it is showing 4G and all bars too.
Went in again to discuss this with them just today. HMM, first, if you go back to comolaints this has been a main complaint of this phone for a huge percentage of customers. Hmm, they are still selling it as a GREAT phone, that is what they said to me, ohhhh, no problems. Today they looked it up and supposabley says Samsung as of July 30th is aware of this problem and now has 90 days to fix it. Current fix. They SAY, pull the battery out EVERY night. Stuck with phone will not replace with a different model. Only same model. SUCKS...Oh and Verizon rep says to me " we are only the cell service. All warranty's are through your Samsung." Funny thing is. WHY are they still selling it on their shelf. I feel like sending a spy into tomorrow to same store and find out if they push the phone on them...BUSTED, I am sure they will. Meanwhile, it sure puts bumps in the road for our livelyhood if our only phone. Not work the retail value, so not buying my own phone to replace YET.
Good luck....Hopefully your third time is the charm and you will finally get a replacement for this Piece of CRAP.

Should iPhone remember connection to a "closed network?"

I chose to keep my network closed by configuring my Airport Extreme to not broadcast it's network name. Laptops have no trouble remember the settings for my closed network after just one configuration. I just got my new iPhone connected to my Airport Extreme, but it seems to lose or forget the settings after it automatically locks. I then have to reconfigure the Wi-Fi settings of the iPhone to reconnect to my wireless network.
Is this normal behavior? Shouldn't the iPhone remember the network settings for networks it successfully connects to, even if the network is not broadcasting its SSID?

Perhaps this is a modem security thing. In France, I use a LiveBox modem. The iphone French help line told me to disconnect then reconnect the modem, wait for 4 buttons to begin flashing and then stay on, until the final 5th button - the one that indicates wifi - starts to flash. During that time, new devices can be added.
I did this, it worked, the iphone's stayed on wifi for two days. I've gone shopping, taken it for walks, and still it connects, no problems, on return.

Help - wifi connection to a closed network

I have a blackberry 8900. How do you connect to a closed network via ADSL? The wifi does connect to the router, and I am able to browse the net. The ADSL also allows access to a closed network, but I am unable to access the closed network.
why? if i can access the internet via router, why can i not access the closed network?
thanks

By a closed network, are you referring to your own internal network?

OS X Server 3 new installation - network users can`t connect - what the h... am I doing wrong ?!?!

Mac Server 3 drives me crazy ...
I have a brand new MacMini here with Maverick on board, and two brandnew Macbook Air and 3 27"iMac that I want to set up as small office. The MacMini should act as Server (with two thunderbolt harddisks connected) for the rest. So far the theory, meanwhile I´m the reality of Server 3 ...
Having years of experience with "normal network" solutions like filesharing etc. I had a look at Server 3 and thought it couldn`t be that complicated to set it up - but meanwhile I`m disillusioned.
I`ve now completely reinstalled the MacMini and the Server the third time, connected directly to the Airport Extreme, started filesharing and started the Server app. afterwards. Then I just
- opened the settings of the server, set up a local network (xxx.local)
- activated push-notification and got a ceritficate
- started the profile manager
- started open directory
- started started the DNS server
- started file sharing (creating a new folder on the MacMini, offering user folders via SMB or AFP (tested both))
- started the other services (calendar, contacts, etc.)
- opened ports for the public services on the AirportExtreme
- set up a testuser (network user), giving access to all services
- gave the test user access to the network folder created
On the Macbook Air i used for testing I registered the network account server (getting a green light afterwards), put the hook at "allow network users to sign on" (I even coot see the test users name there).
But after switching to the login I only got normal users on the MacBook Air. Switching the "allow network users to sign on" sometimes resulted in a third user "other" where I could enter the Username and password - but : no result - just as explained several times in this thread ... :-( :-(
The last three days I tried several setups, switch and renamed, issued certificates, tried out the profile manager and registered the MBA, set up the user folder via AFP and SMB, ...
But : no access to the network user granted ...
Just read the last lines of the Protokoll after my last attempts and could read "connection invalid" and "connection denied" several times in it ... does anyone have an idea what`s going wrong here ?!?!??!
I really need to set up this server a.s.a. possible and am really frustrated about this really not Apple like behaviour of this software *eyesroll* ...
Any help appreciated !

Hi,
sorry, but frustration continues ... here`s what I did :
- complete did the forth reinstall of the MacMini, new Maverick, all updates. Then installed the server.app
- delete all network connections except the Ethernet, gave it a static IP 10.0.1.201
- started the server app, renamed the computername and the hostname
Result :
- This automatically started the DNS server - i just checked this and found a server.dizwo.private entry pointing at the 10.0.1.201. According to your proposal I entered a second entry with "dizwo.private" pointing at the same IP 10.0.1.201 (named "server") - as you didn´t respond to my request above the entries are only guesses
- on the AirportExtreme I opened the ports for all necessary services
- I created a public user folder with all necessary access types (using SMB for the user folder)
- created network user pointing at this folder
- checked whether it has access to all services (was already preset) and gave him access read/write to the user folder
- last but not least i started the OpenDirectory server showing availibility of the OD server at server.dizwo.private
... and then ?
On the MacBook Air and on another iMac I first had a look whether I get access to the user folder on the server. I could see it in the finder windows and got access, okay - fine.
Then I want to set up the OD server in the user settings on the clients - but in contrary to my earlier tries I didn`t got the OD server name, but simply a "server.local".
Trying to enter the "server.dizwo.private" simply resulted in a "host not found" ??!?!
You can imagine how frustrated I`m now about all this stuff - I`m Apple user since more than 20 years and haven`t seen such weird behaviour of an Apple software before - not user friendly in any matter ... .
This server software is advertised and looking like to be an easy to use front end to create a server, even the "manuals" (not that I would tell them so ...) do so. But it looks like it`s really more a trial and error thing when you do the installation ...
So : what I did I do wrong now ? Is there anything that I missed ? Is it a certificate thing (I didn`t set up a custom one but used the intermediate one preinstalled) ? Or another network issue ? The DNS server ? The OD server ? The naming of the server ?
I really urgently need help - need to set up this server the next 2 weeks !!
any help appreciated !!

Connecting to Closed Networks

I have an airport express that I use for wireless access in my dorm. So, it's acting as a traditional router rather than a range extender. I have it set up as a closed network so that it's only visible to those who know the network name. I also have WPA2 enabled for security.
My problem is that, rather sporadically, I will wake my MBP from sleep and a dialog appears stating that "No known networks are available" and gives a list of available open networks. So, I choose "other" and input the network name and the password, making certain that "remember this network" is checked before connecting. Even after doing this multiple times, I still get the dialog periodically (about every other day or so) and I haven't been able to figure out why.
I left the network open for about a week and didn't encounter this issue, so it seems to be associated with the fact that it is a closed network. It wouldn't be a huge deal to have the network visible to anyone who browses for a network since it is encrypted, but I would rather have it closed in a building with a lot of people.
Does anyone have any ideas for a solution?

Yeah, the debate goes on and on, but if you were running aircrack-ng or kisMac and you saw my non-broadcast SSID pop up because I was actively affiliated to my network, wouldn't that pique your interest more in my network than in Alex's whose WPA2-AES-secured SSID you saw every day?
Meanwhile, I don't really know of any fix to Alex's complaint, in order to avoid the hoops that he has to jump through in order to reaffiliate after waking from sleep -- I can't say that I can recall ever seeing anything posted in these forums that adequately addressed the issue. Nobody's piped in on this thread yet with a suggestion to fix this behavior. I'd love to hear of one that is a dependable long-term fix. I'd go non-broadcast then myself.
I used to not broadcast a long time ago when I first went wireless, but I got tired of dealing with this very issue all the time myself, so when I weighed the annoyance of the reaffiliation process after waking from sleep versus the increased likelihood of my WPA2-AES-PSK with truly random passcode getting cracked because I broadcast my SSID, I chose convenience over annoyance. I don't believe that my security has been compromised in any way by my choice.
Alex is apparently annoyed as well, so that's why I recommended he go ahead and broadcast SSID so as to not be annoyed by this behavior anymore. WPA2-AES with a random passcode is as secure as he's gonna get wirelessly, broadcast SSID or not. He needs to weigh the choice of putting up with the annoyance factor or not...until somebody posts a sure-fire cure.

Itunes hanging network connectivity tests

Hi,
I have that old issue with iTunes hanging when I import CD's and the information is retrieved from Gracenotes. It also happens when doing a Network Connectivity Test from the diagnostics tab.
I do not have the jukebox software running as per the old 2011 conversation. Is there anything else I can look at as it is extremely frustrating to have to type things in manually!
Let me know please.
Thanks
C

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Network Connection Properties Access Standard Users

Hi All,
I know this is an old issue but i just cannot get it going i've read a couple of forum posts but i don't know whether i am still doing it correctly.
I am trying to allow domain users to change their network connection properties to allow change of ip addresses as it is slightly different between our 2 offices locally.
So i have added the users in to the network configuration operators group and also i have disabled the UAC as
follows

Hello again,
Is NetworkOP a Security group?
Also have you checked the client's PC and verify if the following group is added in Network Operators group?
Do you see any errors in RSOP.msc when you try to see the applied policy?
Please try to logon with different users in NetworkOp group and check if they have access or not?
Do you have any other policy related to prevent access to network properties?
User configuration \ Administrative templates \ Network \ Network Connection is a case in point.
Another step is to make sure the Network Operators group itself is operational, so please create a user locally (Not Administrator) and add it to the Built in Network Operators group and see if they have access to properties.
Regards.

Can't Connect To PC With Closed Network, Any Advice?

Hi,
I have an AirPort Exteme connecting to my Power Mac G5 and iBook G4. I can connect fine to both using the Closed Network but cannot connect to a Dell laptop. If I open the network or uncheck the box, the Dell can connect. Any suggestions or solutions?

Best solution - don't enable the "create a closed network" feature on the Base Station. It is useless as a security method anyway, since any amateur wireless network hacker will have absolutely no problem sniffing out your so-called "closed network" using software readily available on the internet.
