WRT610N Your computer is not connected to a Router

Bought used WRT610N.  Wired connection has been working great since I plugged it in, but have not been able to get other desktop (with G adapter - Netgear WPN311) or new laptop (with N adapter) to get on internet.
Was just able to get laptop on internet, but still can't get other desktop on.
Network magic (on wired computer) ends with "Your computer is not connected to a router."
Checking the Help for this situation:
1. My ISP is a WISP, and I have no modem.  Only thing inside house is ethernet cable and a power connection for it.  The router IS connected between entry point and computer.
2.This is strictly a home network, not a public one.
3.I find IP address of 192.168.1.100 as Start address in DHCP when I get into manual set-up.
I have re-set router for 30 seconds.
Firmware looks to be 2.00.00 B05
I can access manual set-up at 192.168.1.1
I have two desktops.  Wired is XP64, other one that won't connect is XP SP2 (32bit), and laptop is Win7.  Laptop is now working on Internet.
Desktop that won't connect does not "see" the network.  I right-click the icon and no networks show up in "Choose a Wireless Network".   This computer sits about 25-30 feet from the router, with one wall between.
Where would I go from here?  I know nothing about networking, and not enough about computers, but am good at following directions, step-by-step.
I would appreciate any help anyone can give me.  Thanks.

Connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable.
Open the setup page of the router. Click on Wireless tab and set the configuration view to 'Manual'. Change the wireless network name SSID ( create a new wireless network ). Change the wireless channel to 11. Save the settings.
Go to Wireless security sub and change the wireless security modem to WPA/WPA2. Enter the password for the wireless network. Save the settings.
Click on Wireless MAC filter sub tab and make sure that it is disabled.
Go to Advanced wireless settings sub tab. Change the Beacon Interval to 75, RTS and fragmentation threshold to 2306. Save the settings.
Now try to connect to the new wireless network and see if that works.

  • TS1368 itunes on my new alienware laptop acts as if the computer is not connected. (which it is) can not sign in with my itunes username and password. itunes help even pops up with "your computer is not connected to the internet"....

    so in other words, I can NOT sign in on my account, much less authorize this laptop. can't even access help.  have downloaded the latest itunes software, checked my firewall settings etc.... (the itunes help window even opens up with "itunes help is unavailable because your computer is not connected to the internet".  granted I am basically computer illiterate, in other words if something isnt working my knowledge is pretty limited with tweaking things. I need some help!

    On an Alenware laptop, this issue is often older drivers on the Bigfoot networking card.
    Head to the drivers and downloads page for your model of Alienware at Dell. Check for newer versions of the drivers for your Bigfoot card. If you're behind and you update, can you get through to the Store (or Help) now?

  • Places: "Your computer is not connected to the Internet"

    Hi All,
    When my MacBook goes to sleep while running Aperture, sometimes my Places view wakes up with "Your computer is not connected to the Internet". Even after I reconnect, the map refuses to use the Internet. I can actually perform place searches using the query in the upper right, but when I click on one of the "Google results" nothing happens because, well, "Your computer is not connected..."
    This doesn't happen with every sleep, though. Has anyone else had this problem and figured out a useful pattern to get Places to reconnect?
    thanks,
    nathan
    PS, yes, I will be reporting this bug to the Aperture team.

    I have the same problem with Aperture on my Macbook with Lion.
    Did you ever find a answer?

  • IPhoto says "Your computer is not connected to the internet"

    For a few days now, iPhoto has repeatedly refused to do things (e.g., show a Help page) because it claims the computer (a Macbook Pro, OS X 10.9.5, iPhoto 9.5.1). isn't connected to the internet.  I have a bunch of terminal windows and half a dozen different browsers running, and they all agree that the internet is available and working just fine.
    Why would iPhoto do this?  Or more to the point, how can I fix it, and convince it that the machine is indeed connected to the internet? 
    (Yes, I did try iPhoto's Help tool.  It told me that the computer wasn't connected to the internet, and to try again later. ;-)

    If an app has access to a very big database of images with known locations, the reverse image search can "guess" at what or who it is... here's a little test (you can try it with your photos too)
    Save this image to your computer
    (cheating because we know it is an image from Organ Pipe National Monument
    BUT it is also a screenshot with NO EXIF data attached )
    http://images.google.com
    hover for the "Camera Tool"
    choose Upload and do so with "Picture 3.png"
    Google does several things -
    Guess at the content
    Find matches on the web for its guess's search terms
    Find 'similar' images  <<<===============THIS IS WHAT iPhoto SEEMS TO HAVE DONE!
    show web pages that have the image on them
    Remember, although a trick question test, it is a legitimate proof of the ability of the Guess Engine
    I believe that the "buildings"(environment) in your old timey photos are the key to location guessing - if place is guessed, GoogleMaps can locate it w/ GPS coordinates from its database's cross reference
    All that said, what Engine iPhoto is using is unknown to me - that's just how it works

  • Why do I see: iTunes Help is unavailable because your computer isn't connected to the Internet.  IE9 works fine but iTunes does not connect to the store.

    I have tried 4 days to get iTunes 10.4 working on my Win7 x64 machine.  I purchased a new iPhone4 and after syncing it the first time, I can't connect to the iTunes store.

  • "Your computer does not seem to be connected to the internet." when trying to sign into Lightroom Mobile

    I want to connect Lightroom 5.5 with Lightroom mobile. I click on the identity plate in Lightroom and select "sign in". A window opens saying "connecting...". Eventually the message changes to "Your computer does not seem to be connected to the internet." My machine is a Windows 8.1 PC and I already tried to solve the issue by allowing LR through the firewall.

    I just found a solution:
    - Close Lightroom
    - Rename your .lrprefs file to e.g. .lrprefs.old
    - Launch LR
    - Sign in
    - Close LR
    - Delete the newly created .lrprefs file
    - Rename your previous .lrprefs file from .lrprefs.old to .lrprefs
    - Launch LR again and sign in

  • Your computer could not be verified Mac App Store and FaceTime

    Hi All
    I've been trying through several forums for a long time to find a solution for my problem before giving up, I'll go down to the point:
    I have an iMac Intel 20" early 2008 (I can provide more detailed specs when required). I am using Mac OSX Lion installed from a usb and prior used Snow Leopard. They problem has been consistent thru all versions, same symptoms, same all.
    1. Whenever I try to login to Mac App Store I get the famous: "your computer could not be verified, please contact support for assistance". FaceTime also does not login, promptying a "server error, try later".
    2. Contacted support, and after 16 emails back and forth all I was told at the end was: "I am able to log in into your mac app store account from this side after resetting your account,is there anything I can do for you today".... (!!!!????)
    3. There has been a problem parallel to that, and although I am not sure they are related anyhow I need to point it out. My ethernet port stopped working and there is no way to create any connection through it. I can still use wireless quite well (reason why I still keep my machine). After sending the machine to repairs, diagnose was that it could be a problem on the logic board and to fix it may require to replace LB entirely. So I decided not to go for it and keep the machine only with wireless connection.
    So I have tried every single solution found (so far...) on google and forums to no avail: a) deleting .plist, b) resetting network configs and creating new locations, c) resetting PRAMs (not sure if it solve anything, but tried anyway) and others. The problem still persists with the same symptoms.
    I can login into iTunes store and buy applications from computer, iPhone and iPad, which makes me think that my credentials are valid, alas, I logged into this forum using them.
    I also tried creating a new account at App Store, when I request it through the Application, the "little fan that advises you to wait" appears, but suddenly dissapear with no warning or message at all (!!!!????). It is like you never requested anything in first place.
    Obviously I can still use my machine for internet and stuff, but my ability to purchase/use any Apple software is seriously restricted. I cannot purchase any software anymore if AppStore is going to be the main way to acquire it (which I think it will).
    So, my big questions are:
    1) Is this hardware problem (ethernet, logic board, connection ports) remotely related to the machine authentication process when using MacApp Store and FaceTime through Apple?
    2) Is there a way to fix this through software, before I consider replacing the machine? (Please take into account that I have already tried TS1811, deleting .plist files, resetting network, creating new locations from scratch... I basically searched thoroughly on google, forums and tips and tried all reasonable found recommendations before posting).
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Livia and Huevoos (eggs??) for your interest in this post.
    In a nutshell, I haven't been able to solve this. I gave up on Apple support after they proved useless.
    As Huevoos suggested, and I confirmed it time and again after browsing thru endless forums, it seems that the user validation routine for the Mac App Store is done by looking into your network settings, which in my case are either incomplete or erroneous due to the broken-down ethernet. (I am still waiting for somebody more experienced in this forum to contradict or explain this).
    So, because I still have wireless connection, I can use my machine for day-to-day chores, have not been able to purchase anything up to this date in the Mac App Store though. I'm waiting for either a software update that could correct this (Mountain Lion??? there's no guarantee only hope) or the moment when my machine will need to be replaced by a new one with a functional ethernet.
    I'm sorry I can't be of more help. But I'm pretty much in the same situation as you guys.
    Live long and prosper.

  • "Your computer does not support video chatting." Sometimes.

    Hi, I'm on a MacBook late '08 and my pal has some earlier macbook.
    We are on each other's bonjour list. The problem is that sometimes we can have a video conference no problem, and at other, random times, the option is grayed out, and if I go to preferences, the iSight green light goes on, but the window says my computer does not support video chatting, and that's the end of the story. How do I troubleshoot that? Thanks.

    Hi,
    In the 5 years since iChat 2 came on the scene I have only managed 3 Video chats with people on Satellite connections.
    The Issue is the time it takes to bounce the Signal Up and back to the Host server.
    When you send for a Web page you send little data packets of requests.
    Your computer does not send the next until the first is acknowledged.
    It tends to improve once it is started and you may notice any downloads you do seem to get faster the longer they are going.
    iChat requires for Video chat that the packets are almost Instantly responded to/acknowledged and most domestic modems do not do this.
    Some commercial servers provide a Buffer at one end or the other that acts like the acknowledgement was sent speeding up the process and effectively getting the fastest service you can get out of the connection.
    Speed testing your Connection tends to take long enough for the Acknowledgement issue to be reduced and will tell you the max speed you will possibly get
    http://www.speedtest.net/ but not the start up speed.
    With some services you can pay for the Buffering (I forget the actual name for it)

  • How do you get iphoto to recognize that a computer really is connected to the internet?  I cannot use places to locate my photos, because the software keeps telling me my computer is not connected.  I know the computer is connected.

    How do I get iphoto to recognize that a computer really is connected to the internet?  I cannot use places to locate my photos, because the software keeps telling me my computer is not connected.  I know the computer is connected.

    Try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. It the problem persists  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    If the new library does'nt have that problem then your original library is damaged. Post back if that's the case and we'll go from there.

  • "Your computer must be connected to the internet to perform this operation" during sync.

    My curve had this error message:
    "your computer must be connected to the internet to perform this operation. Please ensure that you are able to connect to the internet and try again".
    Worked fine with desktop manager 4.6...
    update to 4.7 blew it up...
    found an article to fix.. regedit and change hklm \ software \ reasearch in motion \ blackberry\ syncronize
    change State from 1 to 0
    worked fine....
    till the 5.0 update ...
    now it does not work again and this key does not even exist anymore.
    Of course there is internet and there is no firewalling enabled or any application which would block this traffic, no proxy settings, routing issues etc....
    There has to be answer to this issue.. I know I am not the only person with this issue.

    Hi,
    You only need to connect onve, and then you satisfy the request.
    I have run into this twice, and I cannot logically explain why it occurs.
    On the first install I finally connected the PC directly to the cable modem, after disabling the firewall software.
    It did take about 6 hours with Kapersky to ensure it hadn't got infected. That was a friends DM 4.5
    The second was was out of total frustration with version 4.7. On my network.
    I , like you,have routers and firewalls in front of the cable router if I had had a packet sniffer it would have been easier to trace.
    I reasoned that the PC and applications like explorer and Outlook could access the internet with out fail.
    I then tracked the default IP gateway address for my PC.
    In Windows click on Start, then on Run, and then type "cmd" and press Enter to open a DOS window.
    - In this window type "ipconfig" and press Enter.
    - The screen will display the IP options for Ethernet the submask, etc.  "Default Gateway." is what you need.
    - Copy the the default gateway's IP address.
    I then started the Blackberry device manager and opened the Blackberry Hardware properties icon in the systray.
    I was trying to see if I could find what the desktop manager was trying to access or at least what path it wanted.
    I found the Blackberry Router configuration tab.Click on the bottom right "turn on user defined routes".
    So basically you can provide a bypass route "static route". I entered my PC default gateway address, hit apply and OK.
    I did a cold boot of the system, started the DM and it never whimpered, just hit the internet and I could access the 
    sync options. This worked without changing any firewall or router settings. I purposely left it all in place as that
    IP gateway worked for any other program on both my PC's. (I have setup mu PC to device the home network.
    After running steady for a couple of weeks, I went in and removed the bypass address. The 4.7 install has yet to miss a
    beat. 
    Well I probably broke 87 FCC regulations, all of the RIM agreements but it worked for me.!
    If I'm not here tommorow have a drin for me at the party! 
    I have just installed the Desktop manager 5.0 and never had the problem.
    So basically it's your call !
    The worst that can happen is it doesn't work and you narrow it down further, the best that happens is you get connected.
    I would recommend getting a  " sniffer" program. This is the one suggested by Blackberry in the KB article
    (Packet capture  tool (such as Wireshark®)
    Let us know what you think.

  • EA2700 - Your Computer does not have Networking Capability?!

    I'm kind of a novice when it comes to networking and computer.  I receently purchased a EA2700 for the house.  I've managed to plug everything in the proper locations, got everything going and internet working on my PC with a wired connection.  Everything was going smoothly until i put the setup CD in to setup the router.  I ran setup and at the loading bar (0%) an error came up saying that "Your Computer Does Not Have Networking Capability".  I'm using Nvidia nForce that came with the motherboard (to my knowledge at least).  I can go on websites and also get to 192.168.1.1 BUT I just can't seem to get pass that networking capability error.  I've also tried to update the Nvidia nForce driver but doing that caused my internet to not work at all.  So I just rolled back to the previous driver which could get me online at least.
    If anyone has any idea how I can fix this, please let me know cause I'm out of ideas and not quite sure what I need to do at this point.  Thank you very much in advance.

  • Your Computer does not contain a proper graphics adapter??

    I treated my self to a new Macbook Pro with the AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1GB graphics cards..
    Now that I've got everything up and running just dandy I Bootcamped Windows 7 (64 bit) on it to see how it would handle some gaming, I tried installing the latest graphics drivers from AMD and am presented with this error message :
    "Your Computer does not contain a proper graphics adapter."
    Is this normal?? Has Apple restricted the installations of drivers on the MBP or have I got a problem?

    Hi folks!  I was scouring the web for some answers and got pulled to this thread.  I've got a mid-2011 iMac 27", i7 with the 2gb HD 6970M (bootcamping Win7, 64-bit) and I also get that same error as OrphanGymnast when attempting to play the Battlefield 3 Beta.  Whenever I try to join a server it says my Catalyst version is out of date and that I need to upgrade, in turn it only references the generic AMD url.  However, the game still manages to play, but I'm not sure if I'm getting the proper performance I should be getting with the latest driver.  Anyway I tried AMD's auto detector and nothing...same message shown above in the OP.  Now I find myself here.
    I'm not that hardcore about pc gaming so messing around with drivers and such is pretty new to me.  From what I gather the reason for getting, the "Your Computer does not contain a proper graphics adapter." is because mobile/laptop GPU's have to rely on their manufacturers (Apple, in our case) to roll out their specific driver updates and not AMD.  I used the following links, but encountered a few problems.
    Driver Install Instructions for Win7:  http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/GraphicsDriverInstallationInstruction forMicrosoftWindows7.aspx
    ATI Catalyst Mobility Display Driver:  http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/radeonmob_win7-64.aspx#2
    When I tried to uninstall the current ATi catalyst it was not showing up in "Programs and Features".  I figured I could then just run the CCC and saw there was an uninstall option through there.  CCC ran the uninstall, but the progress bar got hung up about 99% of the way through and after about a half hour in that state, I decided to End Task.  By now, my display is all out of wack since it deleted the original driver.  I rebooted and proceeded to install the 11.9 catalyst and that too got hung up about halfway through for a while...had to End Task again.  Rebooted and display was still jacked up so I just threw back in my Bootcamp Support Disc and repaired drivers...now all things back to normal (display driver v8.812). 
    So now that I'm back at square one, would anyone that successfully updated their mobile GPU care to tell me where I messed up? I would greatly appreciate it.  I apologize for the long read, but I wanted to be as clear as possible.
    Thanks!
