Unidentified network - when connecting on wireless

I have HP Pavillon notebook running Vista. When trying to connect to wireless I keep getting the unidentified network error. The other two laptops in my home can connect to the wireless just fine, so there is no issue with the wireless router or SPrint aircard. I have completed everything I could find on the internet about this error - without success. I have spent over 4 hours with HP support, most recently they had me perform a "recovery" to set all hardware and software back to factory settings. Still no luck. This computer can connect fine with an ethernet cable. I can successfully connect to wireless, but cannot get on the internet. Any ideas? If yes, I dont know a lot about computers... so simple steps would be appreciated.

Hi: What model wireless card do you have in your notebook? If you have an Atheros, try this driver and see if that fixes it. http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=5060880&prodNameId=5060882&swEnvOID=4053&swLang=13&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=ob-97750-1 Paul

ITunes 10.7 unknown error -1500 when connect to wireless speaker. OS X 10.75 Any thoughts?

iTunes 10.7 unknown error -1500 when connect to wireless speaker. OS X 10.75 Any thoughts?

For reasons unknown I found copies of many of these tracks as 256 kbps .m4a files in my Trash. As such I was able to remove the existing 128 kbps .m4p (Purchased) files (but not deleting them from iCloud), add the 256 kbps .m4a files to iTunes and then Add to iCloud whereupon, the original 128 kbps listings with the download from iCloud link switched to 256 kbps (Purchased) files. For a few of the files I accidentally deleted the 128 kbps (Purchased) from iCloud and when I added the .m4a to iCloud they appeared as 256 kbps (Matched) songs instead. Not sure why the difference, but it worked for several of these problematic files. But I still don't understand why/where these .m4a versions came from as most of these purchased predated iTunes Plus (e.g., my original purchases were 128 kbps). My new list of recalcitrant files is:
Anna Nalick: Breathe (iTunes SOTW)
Coldplay: Parachutes (tracks 4 + 5)
Dave Matthews Band: Stand Up (tracks 3-6, 11, 12)
Feis: One Evening (iTunes SOTW)
Future Leaders…: Let Me Out (iTunes SOTW)
Hinder: Get Stoned (iTunes SOTW)
Living Things: Ahead of the Lions (iTunes SOTW)
Low Millions: Eleanor (iTunes SOTW)
Spymob: Sitting Around Keeping Score (iTunes SOTW)
As you can see, most of these are iTunes single of the week (SOTW) offerings, so I'm not too bothered about them.

Unidentified error when connecting to Mysql server

Hello,
I have two computers. Both computer 1 is configured with dreamweaver cs5 and is successfully connected to the ftp server and its database.
Computer 2 on the other hand with the same version of Dreamweaver and the same settings gives me an unidentified error when I try connecting to the database. I spoke to help chat for my server and confirmed all of the fields are entered in correctly and that I have allowed access to my server from any IP!
I have tried re-installing !
Localhost with Xampp works also!
No success !

Are you using any firewall/antivirus on computer 2?
If so, try to disable and then try,
Also make sure you have the Admin rights on Comp2.
Thanks

Does anyone know why or how can i stop it defaulting locally. Thanks

New Macbook Pro keeps crashing/freezing when connected through wireless

Recently picked up a new Macbook Pro this past Friday. Everything worked great in the office throughout the day connected via ethernet cable. On the weekend when using the wireless connectivity it kept freezing, until I turned off the wireless and used a cable connection. Everytime I try to use wireless it will freeze up after a few minutes, ball spinning and have to eventually power off and on.
When I use a wired connection did not get the problem even once. Is this a known issue? Does this sound like a hardware problem with the Airport hardware? Since I just got it this past Friday I'm taking it back but in case there is a quick software fix please let me know.
It's a stock Macbook Pro (MacBookPro5,3) with 4 gig and the 2.66Ghz processor.

HI,
Try deleting this file.
com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
MacintoshHD/Library/Preferences/System Configuration
If you are using a router / cable modem try turning off, wait about 20 seconds and reconnect and restart the Mac. If you are using an Airport Express or Airport BS, try restarting. You could also try a different channel.
Open AirPort Utility, located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a computer using Mac OS X.
Select the device you’re setting up, and then click Manual Setup. Enter the base station password if necessary
Click AirPort in the toolbar, and then click Wireless.
Choose a new channel from the Channel pop-up menu.
Repair disk permissions also.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

Strange noise from speaker when connecting to wireless network? common?

I've noticed there is around 2-3 sec noise like " saaa saaa" it is similar to the noise u will hear when you searching for the radio station. it is not very loud.. just little bit.. and once it connected, the noise wil be gone..
is that usual? does that happen to your macbook too? it annoys me a bit.. and I wonder is it an hardware fault.
MACBOOK Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I have also heard this noise. I tried muting the computer but still heard it. What is going on?

Windows downloading data unnecessarily from the internet when connected to wireless (wifi connection) or USB wireless 3G connection

Hello Team/windows Experts,
I need help from you people on this issue that i am facing. I tried to find out the exact reason behind this, however i am not successful on this.
Here is the issue:
I recently re-formatted my laptop and re-installed windows 8.1. After that, I installed only couple of software program i.e. Mozilla Firefox and installed Bit defender total security 2015 and I updated my Antivirus software. I have two ISP connections, one
is USB 3G wireless connection and another one is a normal wired connection to which a wireless router is connected (wifi connection).
Now, this is what I have seen happening. The moment i connect to the 3G usb wireless connection and even if i don't open any browser or website, I see that the data is being downloaded and i can see enormous amount of data being downloaded for no reason
and I couldn't find as to what is being downloaded to my system. One can imagine and understand 10-15 Mb downloaded in couple of minutes and the connection sitting idle and not downloading anything later is fine, but if nothing is being accessed/browsed and
still seeing 200-300 mb data being downloaded is something to be watched for.
The same situation was seen when i enabled my wireless connection from another ISP provider (wifi) and don't know within a minute or so 50 MB data was consumed and to see what its actually doing, i waited for another 5 -10 minutes and huge data was downloaded
(may be another 100-200 MB).
Now before using my internet connection, I have done the following to ensure that unnecessary data is not downloaded from both USB 3G and wifi connection:
1. I don't run any torrents. They are absent.
2. I disabled automatic windows update
3. I have disabled live tiles so that consant update to the windows app tiles are off.
4. I have turned metered connection on for both the networks.
5. I don't download anything from internet unless very important related to my studies. I do very normal browsing.
I am pretty sure that antivirus signatures are not more than 5 mb or so (they are even smaller in files), so they won't eat that much data.
If at all, I have to see what is being downloaded to my system, where can i find that detail/information?
How should I stop this from happening as i have to watch my 3g USB stats every now and then to see if its downloading lot of data or not?
As this is a recently formatted system, I don't see any malware/virus issues as I have my system protected. Although now software can protect the system fully, but still i haven't access/browsed any website that might cause issues to my system. However,
this is something i am trying to find out and if you guys can help/suggest me, it would be great.
Warm Regards,
R Janak Sundhar

Hello Janak,
1. make absolutely sure windows update is disabled, for this test.
2. Disable windows defender etc. for this test.
3. go though programs and features and remove anything that is not needed or you thing might be sucking bandwidth.
4. hit CTRL ALT DEL, select task manager, more details, startup tab and disable everything as a possible cause of your issue.
See if any of this makes a difference.
Thanks, John

Error message when connect to wireless router with wifi enabled phone

Wireless router model WRT54G Ver.2
i would like to seek help on this.
I have been using a wirreless router to access the internet with my computer and it has been working fine. recently i got a handphone with wifi capability (nokia 5800). I managed to connect the phone to connect to the wireless router (it says so in the phone status). but when i tried to open the browser in the phone i got an error message "No Gateway Reply".
Can anyone help me to troubleshoot?
I enable WEP for security.
another thing is, i tried to use the phone to connect to another wireless router at the cafe, it worked well.
thanks

When you connect your handphone to your wireless network, whats the IP address you are getting it on your handphone, if required you can provide a static ip on your handphone i.e IP : 192.168.1.10, Subnet : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1, DNS1: 4.2.2.2, DNS2 : 4.2.2.1 and after this you can restart your handphone and try to check if you are able to go online or not.

Unable to view ext HDD when connect via wireless from mac to mac

Hi guys,
I have just recently started sharing files over wireless and until the other day I had no problems. That problem being - when I log on I cannot see any external HDD's attached to the computer Im connecting with. I have an iMac and a MacbookPro - both on Snow Leopard.
Has this happened to any of you? Its probably an easy fix, I just cant think of any settings I've changed to make this an issue...
Any help would be appreciated!
PS. I have checked that the HDD's are "ticked" as Shared and I can access them fine from the computer they're connected to.

Thanks Eric. I did all that previously but to no avail. I tried going through it all again and restarting everything and i mean everything (even the microwave). Maybe its just not meant to be! I have a friend with the previous version of the OS and his works every time!
Thanks for your help so far mate!!!
Cheers

Airport express error 10057. Also shuts down my entire wifi network when connected

Tried hard reset. In the airport utlility I can see it but can't get into the settings to configure it, It's connected to my router via ethernet. The weird part, is when I have it connected to my router my entire wifi is shut down in my house, no devices can get online. As soon as I disconnect it, my wifi is back to working. Any ideas what's going on?

Sounds like you're using the same radio channel in both of your WiFi systems. Either you should not be using the Airport or you should turn off the radio in the other router. Then...
Configuration is simple if you start from a factory default condition. Then connect the Airport to AC power and finally to your modem/router. Open Airport Utility on your Mac or other computer and accept all of the recommendations. After confirming that it works, insert your desired administrative and WiFi passwords.
Do not expect the Airport to respond instantly to the configuration commands. BE PATIENT!

BB Z30 stuck at acquiring IP when connecting to wireless direct HP 3545

Badly need help... Device: BlackBerry Z30STA100-2/10.2.1.3247 Problem: cannot connect wireless to HP deskjet 3545 all-in-one printer Good day! I recently bought a HP deskjet ink advantage 3545 all-in-one wireless printer yesterday. Setup-ed the printer, turned on wireless direct, and searched it through my BlackBerry Z30. The printer was found. Upon connecting, it always gets stuck at "acquiring IP" and NEVER gets connected. Turned on/off printer, restarted device and went through the process over and over again but still it gets stuck at acquiring IP. The printer was detected but I'm confused why it doesn't connect. Tried using my iPhone 4s and it connects instantly. Tried manually entering IP address of the printer but it asks for primary DNS, secondary DNS, and default gateway. Checked my iPhone and those are empty. Only IP address and subnet mask have entries. I really hope that there's a solution for this other than using my iPhone. I would really like to use my BlackBerry Z30 to print wireless hence the reason I bought this printer. Would be glad for any help or any workaround for this. Thank you in advance!

Hello JERENDS,
First of all thank you for your reply. I figured it out! On my wifi settings, I changed band type from dual to 2.4GHz and it connected to the printer successfully. Next, I downloaded printhand app from BlackBerry World and manually entered the IP address of the wifi printer. From there, a list of drivers for a specific model came out and I selected my specific model and viola! The wifi direct is now working flawlessly!
I also did set up ePrint and now I can print both wireless and ePrint! I hope this will help fellow BlackBerry 10 owners so that they could also use their device to print on a HP wireless printer.
Cheers!

Router or PC when connecting a Wireless Printer

I have an HP7280 printer that passes the test to the router, so I assume its talking out. My PC is wired to the router. I cannot find the printer. Do you think this is in the router settings or the PC settings? Thanks

Make sure you have your Printer drivers installed on your Computer...
