Wireless losing connection to wired network and lan

I have a customer that has an 871W ISR. They are using WEP encryption and a mix of b and g cards. Recently they have started losing connection to all of their wired network resources and the wan, but they don't lose association with the 871W itself. They show excellent signal strangth and keep their IPs. A reboot of the router immediately fixes the problem. There seems to be no pattern or common event that triggers any of this. Anyone else seen this problem before? It started happening after I did a sh tech and the router locked up halfway through it, so I had to reboot. I've reloaded the image thinking that may fix the problem and it has not.

You can clear the interface statistics on the Detailed Status tab, and let traffic run for a time, then refresh the statistics. The ratio of errors to good packets sent and received should be better than it was prior to the test.

Not Connecting to Wired Network and Forcing the loss of all Connections on the Home Network

Just got a new G550 laptop w/Win 7 OS. Tried to connect to wired router and got message "network cable not connected". Recycled laptop and router and came up with router connected to the laptop. Same message after search and identify steps finished. I then noticed I lost connection to the net/router with my other home networked units as well! Tried another cable, same results along with losing the entire home network connection. Disconnected the G550 from home network, via the cable, and the home network reconnected without any intervention. Tried another reboot directly connected to the cable modem, no go there either!
I also rebooted with the wireless search shutoff and got the same problems as on the wired attempt. Thought it might have been the NIC card so I exchanged the system back at the store. Sorry, same problem!!

I have a very similar problem... New Lenovo G550, running Vista Home Premium 64-bit. Right from the start it causes my TrendNet TEW-432BRP router to crash every 10 seconds. I bought a new DLink WBR-1310 and experience the same problem. Connecting to either router through either a wireless connection or a LAN cable connection causes the router to crash every 10 seconds. The router crashes, reboots, establishes a connection with the laptop, communication starts and then the router crashes again.
I am looking for help.

HP CP1525nw - Connect via wired network and wireless ad hoc?

At my job we have our HP 1525nw printer connected into the network printserver via ethernet cable. The printer has its own IP address setup on the network.
With support for XP computers ceasing, a copule of computers will be cut off/blocked from the job's network. One computer is close enough where we can make a USB connection to print. Another is located on another bench. Furthermore, the one that is further away from the printer also can't be upgraded to a compliant Windows OS due to incompatibility with specialized software used to operate equipment hooked up to this computer.
Is it at all possible for this wired network printer to also be setup to print wireless via an ad hoc connection? The idea was perhaps we could install a wireless card on thix XP computer and print wirelessly via a direct connection to the printer, avoiding having to connect to it via the wired network at all. But it is sounding like this wouldn't be possible. Looking for a direct answer before I start shopping around for a wireless PCI card.
This question was solved.

From other posts I have read, I think the CP1525 can be either ethernet or wireless not both at the same time. That will prevent you from setting up with an adhoc network the way you described.
You might try an inexpensive wireless router with a build in print server attached to the usb port. then add wireless USB wireless dongles to the XP computers. Be sure you make sure that the wireless dongles support XP. Also for security purposes you will want to leave the wireless router disconnected from your network.
If your fairly tecky and you don't mind playing a bit you could check your local thrift store for a used router with a print server. For printing you don't need the fastest wireless available. Just make sure it is a b/g router (not a B only one).

Connect to two networks, ethernet(LAN w/o internet), wireless(w/ internet)

so i'm trying to connect to two networks, a wireless and a wired one
the wireless(which connect to an access point) is a network which allows me to connect to internet, and the wired(regular router) one is a small home local network, which does not connect to internet.
if i just have the wireless one on, unplug/disable wired one, i can connect to internet just fine, but if i do plug in ethernet cable, then all of the sudden i can't connect to internet anymore.
in my Network Coonections window, it does show that the wireless one has "Access to Network and Internet" while the wired one has "Access to Network only". I'd assume that the computer is smart enough to find its way to internet, but apparently not.
is there a way to set a preference, so vista tries to find internet conncetion thru wireless first, before go on to the wired network?
I konw this is technically possible, because on my mac, i can set in such way that it takes certain connection first
thanks in advance

I think I am getting it but still no joy.
On the WiFi connection to FIOS Router I have manually set metric to 1.
On Same PC in Ethernet I have removed gateway and set a metric to 10.
Before I did this connection to Internet was very slow when the Ethernet cable plugged in and Interface Enabled. After removing gateway and setting metrics access to Internet AOK.
I have working Homegroup, network printer but no Internet access from Hardwired PC.
Cannot ping FIOS router @ 192.168.1.1 from hardwired PC. Destination host unreachable.
NMAP Quick Scan 192.168.1.* never sees 192.168.1.1
So, I'm still not routing properly.

Wired Network and a Wireless Mac

I currently have a PC and Mac Mini hooked up to a D-Link DI-604 wired network and am considering purchasing an iBook that I would like to go wireless with.
Of course, right now my internet connection comes off my cable modem and into my router and I am unsure how to add a wireless network without having to upgrade all of my computers with wireless cards, in other words, maintain the wired network but add one wireless computer.
My cable company tells me if I add another modem that they will double my fee (two modems = two subscriptions) but they have no problem with me hooking up to 7 computers off a single modem.
So I guess my question is, can I plug the modem into the D-Link router and then run a cable from the router to an Airport Express and then wireless off to the ibook?
If the answer is yes, will I maintain my sanity during the attempt?
Thank you.

Yes, you could cable an Airport Express to one of the spare LAN ports on the D-Link router.
However, a far less expensive alternative is to simply replace your existing D-Link router for a newer wireless router - keeping in mind most so-called "wireless routers" also provide up to four ethernet LAN ports for connections to non-wireless computers.

I need to go very very near to my wireless modem to find my network and if i go a little far i can not connect but before it was not like that?!what is the problem?!

Hey Babakgh,
I understand that you've experienced recent issues with your Wi-Fi network where you can only connect to it if you're close to the router. I would start off troubleshooting your Wi-Fi network by following the steps in here:

I have a Yamaha RX-V673 which is Airplay enabled, but i can't get Airplay to work either on my Mac book or my iphone. The receiver is connected to my network and i can control it using the iphone App and via the web browser option.
Do I need Apple TV or to change some settings somewhere?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You are making some progress with setup of wireless network. Apparently there is reliability problem with the wireless connection. Perhaps you want to refer to following Apple support documents and start tweaking parameters in the router to improve the reliability. I used to have third-party routers such as Belkin and Netgear but switched to Apple Airport routers (Time Capsule then Airport Extreme for now) because of incompatibility issues whenever Apple upgrade Mac OS X. But since Apple develops Airplay protocol as alternative to Bluetooth for wireless audio/video streaming (with much better bandwidth) and must be deployed in any wireless network, there is no reason third-party routers not working for Airplay protocol.

Can no longer connect to my network and 'forget network' option has disappeared??

Can no longer connect to my network and "forget network" option has disappeared??? (Ipod touch 5th generation). This happened on both my children's ipods. We have reset network settings but it doesn't help.

JEM24 , your suggestion is included in:
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.

Sorry Mindi, also have your tried rebooting your router? That's all. Try that before you attempt to Restore. Cheers.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Apparently there is no HP software support for the HP 3050 fax or scan functions with OS X 'Lion' 10.7:

Alternatives?
1) Run a Windows client on the Mac using Boot Camp or one of the available virtualization programs like Parallels, VMware Fusion, and others so you can run the latest Windows print/fax/scan driver.
2) If your Mac hardware supports an older OS X version, downgrade to one (Snow Leopard?) that still had support for print, fax and scan.
3) Buy a newer printer. A 2007 model is 5+ years old, and should now be fully depreciated in a business.

I had no problem connecting to my network and now all of a sudden I can't connect. Instead of prompting me for a password it comes back and says unable to join the network ("name") and then the option is Dismiss. Anyone else have that problem?

Instead of prompting me for a password it comes back and says unable to join the network ("name") and then the option is Dismiss. Anyone else have that problem? I've gone thru all my settings and can't seem to find a way to log into my network. Don't get the option to put in my password. It just give me the name of my network and option of dismiss instead of password.

My mac book air connects to my network and gets internet access but airport utility cannot find my airport base station to set up time machine

Normally, AirPort Utility is not used or needed to set up Time Machine backups......unless a default setting on the Time Capsule to Enable File Sharing has been changed.
On the other hand, if you open AirPort Utility, a picture of the Time Capsule should be displayed. Are you saying here that the Time Capsule does not appear when you open AirPort Utility?

I can't connect to wifi network and bluetooth on iPhone 4S. Need help. Have already rebooted everything and reset network setting

I can't connect to wifi network and bluetooth on iPhone 4S. Need help. Have already rebooted everything and reset network setting

I have the same problem; tried a phone restore, both restoring data and setting up as new phone with factory settings, reset all settings, re-boot, remove apostrophe, put in fridge, you name it!
I think there's quite a few iphone 4s users with the same problem!
I called Apple they said it's a hardware problem, but it has worked for nearly two years; they say go to the Apple store and they can provide a replacement phone for approx. £150!
I've been into the O2 shop where I bought it and they knew the problem exactly; said they had sent a few phones off for repair and had them back awith a report they cannot fix it because it's a software problem!
An assistant in the shop had the same issues; logic says it's a software problem and hopefully Apple will fix it with a patch but at the moment they seem to be avoiding everyones comments!
If anyone else has any ideas these would be appreciated?

Been losing connection for magic mouse and wireless keyboard

When I have my MBP running Mavericks in clamshell mode, I lose connections to both magic mouse and apple wireless keyboard in clamshell mode. I've tried all the PRAM SCM, aluminum foil and paper tricks. What I then did was test what happens when I leave the MBP open rather than in clamshell mode and it appears to avoid losing connection, at least that is what I've concluded with Mavericks for now..... anyone else able to replicate this? Having to leave the MBP open is not ideal.

Barry, thanks, still not working. I've tried every thing I can think of or have read, what I'm concluding is that there is either a problem with Mavericks or something has changed on how bluetooth works in Mavericks. Did not have this problem for the last 4 years. I can reproduce the problem when I close the laptop. I had the Bluetooth and wireless card checked out and replaced about 3 weeks ago. Problem has continued.

Can I use my iPhone 4s wireless signal, connect to my laptop and have the laptop use the signal? Not as a hotspot using 3GS but the wireless network.

I'm with the O2 network, which allows me access to the Cloud wifi service as part of my contract. My laptop cannot connect to this network without paying a fee.
I'd like to connect my laptop to the iPhone and allow it to share the Internet access provided to the iPhone.
Is it possible?
