Want to connect to internet on nvidia network controller on p4n diamond

Im trying to trouble shoot why my router when im on my diamond that caues my router to restart randomly and want to use the nvidia connection to connect to the internet but I cant. I was told by  over hearer that it means I cannot connect because its software disabled but wasnt abliged to tell me how to  un disable it.  i want to enable it to rule out my router needing to be replaced.
it is a d link di 624 router 2.71 (.71 because it was a firmware to attempt to fix the restarts)
thanks

Replug back to the nvidia LAN and Right Click Network places > Properties > Right click on nvidia 10/100/1000Mbps Local Area Connection > Click on configure button > Got to Speed and Duplex > Set to Auto or 100 Full or 100 Half > Click apply and ok.
Next, go to command prompt > type "ipconfig/all", check if your system is receiving any IP from the router. If the IP reflects as 169.xxx.xxx.xxx, then you are getting the APIPA IP from Windows which is incorrect. Check your nvidia LAN point and see if there's any blinking light. If there is, the connection is still alright and you should type "ipconfig/release" in command prompt. It should take about 1 ~ 2 mins on releasing the current IP and when you type "ipconfig/all", you should see 0.0.0.0 at the adapter address. Once this is done, you'll need to type "ipconfig/renew" to grab another set of IP from the router switch and this will take 1 ~ 2 mins as well.
If there's an error while trying to release or renew IP in command prompt, I reckon it to be the LAN point problem either on the mainboard or the router.

  • I have an eMac which I want to connect to my home wireless network. My router is D-Link-601 tech 802.11n. My emac is wireless ready but does not contain an airport card. Do I need a card and an airport station? What else?

    You need the Airport card OR Airport Express but not both.  Considering the age of your machine, I recommend Airport Express as you will find other uses for it whenever you replace the eMac.
    To set up the AE, you do need OSX 10.4 or higher.

  • Nvidia Networking Controller Drivers in Vista BootCamp ????

    I have installed Vista 32bit in BootCamp 3 on my new 13" Macbook Pro, all seemed fine but for some reason, Vista does not recognise the Nvidia Networking Controller driver installed from the bootcamp drivers, it says it failed to load the driver when checked in Device Manager.
    Also, I have problems which I think relate to the Broadcom Wireless driver too. Signal strength when running in Snow Leopard is full bars, no problems. But when booted into Windows the wireless signal strength is one bar and oh so poor.
    I have to move within a couple of meters of the router to get a good signal.
    What is wrong with these drivers ???? i thought Apple supported Vista ????
    I have read elsewhere of people suffering at the hands of the poor Broadcom driver, is there any update from Apple for this, or does anyone know of a new version of the drivers from Broadcom at all that give better performance ???
    Same with the Nvidia driver, anyone know what to do about that, Apparetnly you can't just go to Nvidia and download the Nforce from there as the Apple OEM drivers are different and I dont even know which Nforce version the laptop uses anyway.
    Please Help - Going Insane - Grey - And VERY bald!!!

    Anyone have any ideas about this at all ????
    I have updated bootcamp to 3.1 now but nothings changed. I did switch on Afterburner, disabled low power consumption and also changed the driver to use b/g/n auto which has helped slightly but not dramatically. As I have said OSX runs full signal so I know theres no router signal issue.

  • Trouble connecting to internet via other networks

    When away from home, my MacBook Air sometimes will not connect to the Internet, even though I am connected to the host's wireless network. In Network preferences, the status says, "AirPort is connected to [name of host network] and has the IP address [xxx.xxx.x.xxx]." However, Safari will timeout with a network not available message. So I am connected to a host router, but not the Internet. This only happens outside my house, never at home.
    Before, during and after I connect to the outside router, I will get pop-up warnings (source unknown) that tell me my (specifically named) AirPort Extreme cannot be found. I don't know whether the OS, or some application, is responsible for this, nor why it isn't apparent to (whatever originates the warning) that I am connected to another wireless router/network. I don't know if this indicates a symptom or a cause, however.
    This problem is intermittent, and is not confined to any particular outside network; it happens on networks I've never used before, and on networks I've used successfully in the past. I have perused the Console, but frankly I don't know what to look for. Using Network Diagnostics from Safari leads to a dead end. The only thing that ever helps me get connected, when this happens, is to use "Assist me" in Network preferences. What it does or how it does it is a mystery to me. This is why I'm here.
    My question:
    Rather than ask anyone to guide me to specific solutions (given that I have not gathered enough specific information), I would like to know what things I should look for and take note of when this happens, either generally or specifically. This way, I will be able to offer more specific information if or when this happens again. Anything you can advise me to put on my checklist to help diagnose this in the future will be much appreciated. Since I cannot reproduce the problem at will, tuning my radar seems like the best approach for now. Thanks in advance.

    If you want to analyze the problem, the first place I'd check is under the Advanced button of the Network panel of System Preferences.  Select the DNS tab and see if what you see for "DNS Servers".
    On the other hand, it might help to reset the connection settings on your Mac using these steps one at a time until the problem is resolved, recognizing that, depending on your problem, not all of these steps will make sense:
    1) Use the AirPort menu bar item to turn AirPort off, then on again.
    2) Try to select your Wi-Fi network from the AirPort menu.
    3) In the Network panel of System Preferences delete the AirPort item from the left column, then add it back.
    4) In the same panel as (3), define a new location and see if you can make that work.
    5) In the same panel, select the AirPort connection item, click the "Advanced" button, select the "TCP/IP" tab, then click "Renew DHCP Lease".
    6) In the folder /Library/Preferences ( _not_ <yourhomefolder>/Library/Preferences), move the folder SystemConfiguration onto the Desktop, then restart your computer. See if you can now make your AirPort connection work.
    These steps may not help, but they'll only take a couple of minutes to try.  Before you try these, if you have any special network settings on your Mac for things like DSL credentials, note all your network settings, because the latter steps will destroy them.  If you got all the way to the last step, if things don't work any worse than before, you can trash the saved SystemConfiguration folder.

  • AirPort no longer connects to internet but local networking is fine.

    I have an Airport Extreme router version 7.6.3. Recently the router has been dropping connections with my cable modem.  I have had to reboot the modem and the router to reconnect.  It is no longer connecting to the internet at all.  All of my wireless devices can find the Airport and connect to my local WiFi network but no internet access.  I tried connecting my macbook directly to the cable modem via ethernet cable and had some of the fastest internet connections in recent memory.  How do I make the router work?

    I did.  They very politely told me - after checking the connection for 15 mintues with me online - that it appeared to be a router issue from thier perspective.  I was wondering if there is some way to test the routers basic functions, etc.
    If you haven't already done so, install 5.6 utility on your Mac..
    How to load 5.6 into ML.
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    Leave the package open on the desktop so you can see the file. AirportUtility56.pkg
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. If your Mac refuses to run the software, because it wasn’t downloaded from the Apple store, go to security in preferences and allow other software to work.. this is limitation of trade methinks. You can set back later if you like.
    Now drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. in finder, open the new directory, drill down.. applications, utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall version 6 (now 6.3 if you updated) so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. although I have had no problems when doing so.
    Roll the firmware version back to 7.6.1 or earlier if it will work.. the latest firmware is not the greatest by a long shot.
    Then using 5.6 utility you can access the advanced logs on the Extreme.. you cannot do that with v6 utility.
    It should show disconnections happening.
    You can also access the WAN ethernet settings and set the Airport to 100mbit full duplex.. this seems to have helped people lately.
    Of course nothing like this exists in v6 utility.. being a toy utility.

  • Can't connect to internet even though Network prefs show all green lights

    I have 3 iMacs in our office with the same issue.
    I can get them to connect to the internet using Airport but not Ethernet. When I connect the ethernet the computers network preference screen shows that a green light and that an ip address has been assigned via DHCP.
    When the ethernet is connected I can connect to other computers on the network but cannot access any external sites.
    Things I've tried:
    -repair permissions
    -making sure OS X firewall is off
    -I tried to ping the router = got response
    -Tried pinging other internal office IP address = got reponse
    -Tried pinging external sites = no reponse
    -I've tried restarting the router and the DSL modem and the computers, but nothing works.
    Any ideas?

    This is usually the other way round: users can connect with Ethernet but not with Airport, so my first reaction is to think about a hardware problem with the router. I would have thought DNS might be a problem (not excluded totally) but you are not able to ping to external sites, while you can ping the router and other devices on the LAN.
    To help refining the problem, how about other (non-Mac) computers: do you have any there; and are they suffering the same problem? If so, the problem may be in the router and it may be an idea to try with another. If not, there is a problem with the settings on the Macs.
    When did this problem start; and what changes did you make around that time?

  • Can't connect to internet through Airport network

    Previously - worked
    Internet: DSL
    Network: via Airport Extreme
    Computers: 3 (G4 Tower, PowerBook G4, Xbox360)
    Setup: I ran the ethernet cable out of the modem into the Aiport Extreme. Then I ran another ethernet cable into a router which then split the signal into two lines -- one going to the tower and one going to the Xbox. The laptop connected wirelessly. This worked using DHCP assigning multiple IP addresses to all on the network and indeed the two computers surfed the net with ease and I had no problems connecting or staying on Xbox Live.
    Currently - doesn't work
    Internet: Cable (Charter)
    Network: same
    Computers: same
    Problem: I recently switched from DSL to Cable internet for faster speed. Here is what i found: When i connect the ethernet cable directly into the tower from the modem i can access the internet. If i connect the ethernet cable directly into the PowerBook G4 i get nothing. If i try to connect the ethernet cable to the Airport from the modem i get nothing as well. At first all i thought i had to do was change the account settings from that of the DSL to that of the Cable internet -- only there are no account settings for the Cable internet. I literally just plugged in the cable and was ready to go. I have tried resetting my airport to get rid of my previous [DSL] settings and redoing the Airport Setup Assistant to no avail.
    G4 Tower, PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    ok so i unplugged my modem for a few minutes and then plugged the ethernet into the airport and turned the modem back on. now i can get internet on both my laptop and my tower. that works, thanks!
    an odd aside tho is that before, when i was connecting through PPPoE, the laptop would automatically connect to my network (regardless of how many networks the airport card was picking up). now that i have the airport set to just connect via ethernet i have to manually log onto my network every time. is there a setting i'm forgetting about that enables automatic log in or is this just the case with connecting via ethernet?
    here is the next problem, though. i bought a wireless adapter for my 360 and it cannot detect my network. it detects two other different networks that are in my complex but not mine. i have no idea if this is an airport issue or a 360 issue as powerbooks just automatically detect an airport base station. i have tried testing it in the same room as the airport with no luck. the only way i have connected to Xbox Live so far was to hard line an ethernet cable to the 360, shut the modem off, turn it back on and connect that way. if anyone knows anything about the 360 or has had similar problems trying to get their 360 up and running wirelessly through an airport please let me know

  • HTC Rezound Will not Connect to Internet via Mobile Network

    Hi,
    I recently provided my phone to my youngest son so I went to Verizon and got a new sim card and had them set it up.  Everything worked for about a week or so.  Now the phone will not connect to the internet via the mobile network.  The only way he can connect to the internet is via the WiFi.
    I have checked all settings and it all seems fine.  I also did 2 factory resets and still no go. I removed the Sim card, booted up phone and turned back off, re-installed the sim card and booted again.  Still same problem.  Signal strength is good but the 4g or 3g doesn't show up like it used to.  When I click on internet it says network not available and tries to bring up the WiFi. 
    Do I need a new Sim card?  Is the phone messed up?  Anyone have any idea?

    I was having the exact same problem and it was driving me crazy. After reading some other threads, I removed my original SIM card and started up the phone until the home screen tells you the SIM card is missing (Emergency calls only). Switch it off, put the SIM card back in and restarted the phone. Got my mobile internet (4GLTE) coverage straight away.
    Hope if works for you too!
    Good luck.

  • TS4505 Unable to connect to internet over Guest Network  (Airport)

    I have changed the guest network's DNS server IPv4 addresses to 75.75.75.75 and 75.75.76.76 and rebooted base station.  These are the values for Comcast.
    Still not able to connect to internet over this guest network.
    Do I need to do anything else?  Help!

    Bob - thank you for your quick reply.  My setup is as shown in the attached image:
    My guest network is on the Apple Airport TIme Capsule (v7.7.2).  Router mode for this time capsule shows "Off (Bridge Mode)" but grayed out.  No edits possible as shown below:
    Northbound of the Time Capsule is my Apple Airport Extreme (v7.6.4) that is in turn connected to a Comcast uBee DDM3513 Docsis 3.0 Cable Modem.  I believe it is this one.

  • HT5569 Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an iPad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password protected network?  (the password is 31 random characters)

    Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an ipad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password proctected newwor?  (the password is 31 random characters)

    Yes, if both the Mac and iPad are setup using the same iCloud account, then any notes you enter on the Mac will be synced across to the iPad almost instantly.
    Same occurs with the 1Password app I mentioned. If you have both the Mac and iPad versions of it, and setup either iCloud or Dropbox syncing, any passwords entered on the Mac will be synced to the app running on the iPad ready for copying and pasting. This would be the most secure method, but not the cheapest.

  • Wont connect to internet over VZW network

    Ok so I just got my HTC Thunderbolt yesterday and it wont connect to the internet over the Verizon network. It works just fine when it is connected to wifi. I have tried turning the mobile network on and off and everything but it still wont. 
    BTW I can still call and text but everything that requires the internet does not work.

    I live on the Fringe of 4G network.  My Brother in law had this problem, and hit battery life was subpar.
    This fixed it for him
    Factory Reset his phone
    He used the dialer and put in *#*#INFO#*#*
    Changed the CDMA+LTE to CDMA Only (PRL)
    Then his did his setup as usual, and so far he hasn't had any problems since.  If you want to try that and see what happens by all means try it, but don't get mad at me if it doesn't work

  • Mac Pro will connect to internet but not network with other systems

    I have an iMac in my studio reception and a Mac pro and Macbook in my office. All three systems can connect to the internet but the Mac Pro has stopped networking with the iMac. However the iMac can network with the Pro. I have an ethernet cable connection to the Pro (no wi fi card) and I have a wireless router on the iMac which has enabled me to connect the Pro to other systems through wi fi. I also have a PC laptop and the Pro can connect to it via wi fi. Everything was networking properly several weeks ago and as far as I am aware I have not changed any settings. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this annoying little problem.

  • Lion says "can't connect to internet" after sleep; network is fine

    So our two-month-old MacBook Pro has developed an unusual tic. Now when we wake it from sleep, it is initially unable to access the internet through browsers or mail -- even though AirPort is connecting to the network and other devices on the network (iPhones and computers) can reach the internet just fine. Running Network Diagnostic says that the internet connection is fine. After several minutes, with no user input, it restores the internet connection. This machine is running OS X 10.7.2.

  • Can't connect to internet on WiFi network

    I have a cable modem hooked to a wired router (Linksys) hooked to a wired/wireless router (DLink). My Windows laptops and PSP can connect to my WiFi network just fine, and up until about 2 days ago, my iMac could too. But now, it recognizes the network and I can connect to my other computers, but I cannot connect to the internet. When I used the diagnostics from OSX, sometimes they would say the internet was working (though it definitely wasn't) and sometimes it would say it wasn't. My signal strength is fine and I haven't changed any network settings on the computer or to the network itself. I think I just installed some updates from Apple, but I'm not sure. Please advise.

    I had the same problem on my G4 tower a few weeks ago. Drove me nuts! I finally got past it by accident. I had created a Home location in the Network preference panel. That one wasn't working. Could see the local network, but couldn't hit the internet to save my life. By accident, I switched back to the Automatic location that comes as a default. That one worked! Haven't had a problem since.
    I think the issue might be preference corruption of some kind. I'm not sure.
    Anywho, try creating or using a different location on your Mac and see if a fresh set of setting will get you through to the internet.

  • Not connecting to Internet - but on Network

    Hi, My Macbook can connect to my Network - through an Airport Express which is wired to a cable modem. However when I launch Mail or Firefox I can not connect to the internet? My son's Macbook (using the same Network) connects without a problem and our PC also connects to the Network and Internet.
    I used to be able to connect to the Internet through the exact same configeration a few weeks ago!!
    thanks

    Good news, Genius Bar is stocked with Geniuses. He created a new network location and bam, I was on the Apple Store's wifi accessing internet. Switching back to automatic location (or any other old one I had made myself long ago) and it dies.
    Corruption somewhere. So, try that first:
    System Prefs/Network click Location pop up menu, edit location, click the + and make a new one. Now typing from a coffee shop, no issues. Hope it's that easy for others. Now, should I bother to "fix it" or live with the work around? Don't know, archive and install will wipe the OS and I can start over but that hardly seems worth it. Can't see why I can't just live on this location and tweak it as needed. Or keep making new ones.
    I did throw away what I thought was the prefs file for this (back on Saturday) but I must have missed the pertinent one.
    Give it a try.
    Oh, and BTW, whenever I've had a laptop that need to be shipped in for fixing (Apple stuff of course) I've always had it back in hand fixed in a matter of a few days, like 3!! Apple's service really is amazing, it'd better be, we pay for it!
