WRVS4400N wireless does not work until wired computer is started

Hi!
I have a WRVS4400N and is overall very pleased with it. I have desktop computer which is connected by wire and a laptop which is wirelessly connected (WPA). I use DHCP for both computers and the router is connected to Internet with a static IP. Pretty much all settings are default and the router has the latest firmware.
However I have a problem, sometimes I am unable to get a wireless connection with the laptop. The signal strength is always excellent or very good, but I am unable to get any connection. If I choose 'repair' (Windows XP) it seems to get stuck on "Getting new IP address". I have tried many many many things, rebooting router/laptop and so on but I am pretty sure it is not any problem with the laptop (it's been working great on several other WLANs).
But...
Now I have noticed a strange coincidence and that is 99% of the times when I am unable to connect wirelessly, the desktop computer is shut down. As soon as the desktop computer is started and I try to connected with the laptop again, it works! (There are never any problems with the wired connection.)
If anyone have the same problem or some suggestions/tips what to do please let me know.

well yeah its my first time hearing that kind of problem..
try enabling MAC address clone on the router.

Tecra A3 - Creative Mouse Wireless does not work

My Creative Mouse Wireless does not work while touchpad is installed.
Even if I disable the Touchpad, the mouse seal does not work.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thank you,
R.P.

Hello
On this way it is not easy to say what the problem is. I assume that you got some installations software for your external device. Install it and it should works.
As far as I know functionality of external mouse doesn`t depend on touchpad settings.

Wireless printing on HP 6500A Plus -wireless does not work

windows 7, linksys E2000 router, sony vio computer wireless N.
No issues printing by USB. When using wireless, prints first few lines, then slows to a stop. Loses feed from router and disconnects. Tried disabling all firewalls, removed antivirus, etc - nothing is working. Not the only computer in household with same issue as well - Toshiba running xp is having same problems. Need fix or I will trash printer and never purchase HP again and I have long been an HP customer for printers.

There have been a few issues with printing using the new E-series Linksys routers. Make sure the router has the latest firmware. If that does not work, set a static IP address for the printer:
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). Yours is 192.168.1.100 to .149. Let's use 192.168.1.200 for your printer.
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Enter your router's IP (on the Network Config Page) for the gateway and first DNS. Leave the second one blank.
- Click 'Apply'.
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

Hey
I don't know if anyone can help me but my sound is not working on my computer. I went to my system preferences and when I click on output it says that the device has no output controls. I don't know why it is doing this. Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

Itunes 8.02.2 does not work on my computer

Hi,
*I have a dell computer runing xp sp3 pro verison. I installed Itunes 8.02.2 then I restart my computer Itunes does not work for me at all. I have no malware or spyware on my computer. I have tried the tips on apple web site to make itunes start up and work. So I remove 8.02.2 itunes from my computer. Then I installed 8.01.11 the old version of Itunes and it works just fine on my computer. I think that 8.02.2 has a lot of bugs in it. Also, I have a dell notebook with xp sp3 home and the same problem happends to my with version 8.02.2. I got itunes to work on my notebook buy installing 8.01.11. I hope people tell apple that there are some problems with 8.02.2.*
I hope apple comes out with a new version of itunes that don't have problems like 8.02.2
*Thanks alot*

2) My PC is a notebook, and only have USB ports at the keyboard.
3) & 4) I turned off/on several times the PC and the iPhone.
5) Uninstall (reboot pc) and reinstall iTunes.
Where can I download a previous version of iTunes?
Thanks in advance.

Microphone does not work after restarting computer

I just received the Creative Xmod soundcard yesterday after using an Icemat siberia usb headset sound card for a couple months. The sound is a lot better with the creative soundcard however, if I restart my computer and go back into ventrilo, my microphone does not work. It doesnt make any sound when I talk into it (almost as if it muted itself) but it hasnt. I check my sound settings and everything is the way it should be.....but the mic isnt producing any sound. It is not my headphones that is causing the problem because I have never had this problem with my old icemat soundcard. I am currently using :
Sennheiser PC350 headset
Windows XP Home Edition
The newest version of Ventrilo

That is how I have ventrilo setup. A friend of mine said I should Mux set to Record Control, but it only gives me the option for Wave In =/

T500 Wake on Lan (wireless) does not work.

Hi,
I set up T500 (Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit) for wake on lan,
1) Enable Bios WOL
2) Enable WOL in power manegement tab of Intel WiFi Link 5300 AGN property in device manager.
But WOL does not work. Sending magic packet from a PC in the same WiFi segment does not wake up sleeped T500.
Are there any setting for WOL in lenovo tools ?
Does anybody use WOL(WiFI) on T500?
Thanks,

Is the T500:
Associated with an access point at the time it is put into standby/sleep mode?
Connected to AC power for the whole time it is in standby/sleep mode (in otherwords the whole time it is in a low power state) when you are attempting to use WoWLAN?
If not, that may be at least part of your problem, as it is a known limitation on WoWLAN operation.
You also need to have the laptop "set up" to the master workstation, and the WLAN configured to handle braodcast wireless frame, but I am presuming you have already done that side of things.
Cheers,
Bill

I downloaded the new itunes and now it does not work on my computer. How do I get an older version to reinstall?

I downloaded the new itunes 11 and not it will not work on my computer.

Why not? What happens when trying to use it?
"Will not work" is useless when asking for help. Without specifics, no assistance can be provided.

Serial number does not work on second computer

I've added a second in-design to my second laptop but the serial number does not work. What do I do?

Please confirm if the Indesign that you have is a perpetual license or a part of CC.
If it is a part of CC then serial number is not required. Then you can follow http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/ccm-prompt-serial-number.html
If it is a perpetual license then let us know the exact error that you are recurring.

HP 5524 Wireless does not work after firmware upgrade

HI,
I have just purchased an HP5524. After initial problems setting up the WPA key from the printer screen, I connected via USB, found the printer and swapped to wireless successfuly. I then installed the printer software on all my computers at home successfully over wireless.
The printer then needed a firmware upgrade to support eprint (?), which is successfully connected, downloaded the fireware, installed and went through the boot cycles successfully.
However, ever since wireless will not work. Before I return it to the retailer as "not fit for purpose" I thought I would ask the forum. The diagnostics downloaded a tool, which I went through, but this did not offer solutions that I had not already tried.
Thank you

Hi,
Thank you for posting you query,
In order to resolve the issue, please make sure the printer is placed closer to the router and uninstall the printer drivers already installed and then start the instalaltion and seelct teh connection type as wireless network. Then select use USB to configure wireless and when prompted conenct the USB cable and then select the network and enter the encryption key follow the onscreen instructions.
If the issue still persisits, please open the browser and in the address bar enter the IP address of the router and click on GO. This will take you to the router configuration page. On the router page, please click on Wireless Setup and please make sure SSID Broadcast is enabeld and the Wireless Mode is set to Mixed or 802.11 B/G/N and the Wireless Channel is set to 11 and click on Apply. Then try to connect the printer to the network by using the CD.

WRTU54G-TM T Mobile, works fine in wireless but does not work in WIRED connection

This is really weird. This router has worked fine for little over years. It has it's up's and downs but yesterday. It stopped working on the wired mode. I can see my computers connected on the DHCP list but it does not show internet. On my WIRED computers connected to the router, it says no internet access and cannot find gateway. it is setup as DHCP automatic like it has been for ages. I used the setup wizard with no success. IT SAYS NO ROUTER FOUND, please check connections.
The 4 ethernet lights are green and on completely on when nothing is connected to it at all on the wires.
Now wireless is completely fine and I can see the router and everything else but connecting WIRED just doesn't work. It can see my wired computers on the DHCP client list but anything wired has no internet or connection.
I tried even wiring it directly to my laptop and it does the same thing. But connecting wireless is perfectly fine and dandy.

All the 4 Ethernet port lights are lit up when nothing is connected to the router.
I think the router is not working properly.
Do you get a valid IP address like 192.168.1.xxx on your wired computer?
Try to ping the default gateway and see if you get replies from the router.
You are able to access the Internet on the wireless computer?
What IP address do you get on wired and wireless computer?

Internet does not work on sharing computer

ok the problem is this the second computer that shares the internet connection download speed starts ok but within 1/2 a second slows down to zero the same thing with mail gets a connection but then cuts off.Both computers are running 10.5.1 the main computer which ever one I set as main works fine just the sharing computer has these problems. I started form 10.4.6 on the main computer and everything works fine as it should do, why wont it work under leopard ?I am using a wired ethernet thru a switch.

I would recommend checking what wifi network you are connecting to. Xfinity wifi is their hotspot not your internal network. if you are connected to the xfinity wifi it will not work unless you sign in.

FIOS Mobile App - Wireless Does Not Work

Hello all,
I am trying to use the new FIOS Mobile app on my Android tablet. This should allow me to watch some live TV, however when I try to connect to a channel it tells me I need to be connected to my broadband router.
In my setup at home my FiOS broadband router does not handle wireless connections, only wired. I have a separate wireless AP that does this. Why should it matter where I get my wireless connection from, as long as I am connected?
Help.
Thanks,
Steve

Someone may have thought this was a great idea, but it's very frustrating to download an app, know that you meet all the criteria for using it, then be unable to use it because the app is unable to differentiate successfully that you are, in fact, on you home network. There's one router in my home, it's a Verizon router, and the app should be smart enough to know this. It's obvious that this app was rushed out without a throrough enough suite of tests, because something this simple should not happen. Is there a ticket in place for this? Is the application support group actively trying to rectify this problem? I'll give Verizon a while to sort it out, but this doesn't please me.
Send the developers an email at [email protected] I'm fairly confident they don't monitor this site. If they don't hear from enough people like you with this issue, they won't fix it. So please notify them of your issue. Many are complaining on the Google Play app user reviews about the same problem you have. You can see then on the Google Play site by accessing the site via a PC.

OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus Wireless DOES NOT WORK with Mac Mavericks Based Network

Replaced my Brother system with the HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus yesterday. There are many positive features of the 8600 Plus that prompted me to purchase it...
Modular Design
Large legal sized Scanner
Standard/Legal Paper Printer
Copy
E Print Capability
High Yield / Affordable Toner Replacements
Unfortunately, I discovered the Wireless network capability is less than desirable. After hours of installing, reinstalling, work arounds, internet solution searches, it just will not work. If you are able to get the printer to work on your network (with router), the scanner will not be visible, vice versa, etc...etc...etc...
HOWEVER, I did discover this solution. If the unit is near your base computer, install it to your computer with a usb connection. That allows you to have scanning and printing from that unit. Then you can connect the unit through its ethernet connection to your router. From there all computers can print within your network. It's not the best way to connect a WIRELESS printer, but at least it works.
I'm not certain why HP and Apple can't find a solution, but I never found anything on the net that worked. The problem seems to stem from the new Mavericks update from Apple, but I'm really not sure. I wasted an entire day of productivity attempting to make it work. I'm posting this so you don't make the same mistake. If you happen to know a verified solution, then I would welcome the information. Best of luck!!!

It may be a mac driver issue. Try installing the bootcamp update for your version of vista from here:
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
I'm not sure if this is supposed to work since I've never tried mac hardware at 5ghz on windows before...
