I have a sony vaio vgn fw21m laptop with vista home premium 32. Each time i try to create a new network connection (connect to the internet - bradband(pppoe)- I enter the Username and Password) i get: "The wizard cannot create the connection". I was searching the forums over and over and I cant find nothing useful. There is no problem with my ISP (optical) (on an other laptop runing winXP I can connect with no problems). The funny thing is that I was able to connect to this ISP with no problems, but I lost the conection shortcut after a vista system restore (there was a keyboard problem, no biggy). I also can connect to another ISP (on another location) that does not require a login/password I just have to eneble the right profile. What I can deduct is, that it is probably a problem directly connectet to vista network and sharing center. PLEASE HELP! p.s. I alredy reinstaled the ethrnet driver and vaio smart network. -- nero |

Hi
What exactly is the device (name and model) that is between your laptop and the telephone line with the DSL signal? Jack (MS, MVP-Networking) "nero" wrote in message ...

It is Iskratel Prospero 632 (its not a telephone line but fibreoptic). I tried powering it down and up again, no effect. (As I thought, because it worked fine a month ago with this laptop and vista) Jack-MVP;1047520 Wrote: Hi What exactly is the device (name and model) that is between your laptop and the telephone line with the DSL signal?

Hi
Assuming that you are talking about the wire connection (Not Wireless logon) you probably do not need to PPPOE creation wizard and put the Id and password since your Fiber connection device looks like a Combo fiber bridge, Wireless Router. These type of devices do the PPPOE authentication at the WAN port for whole the Network. Contact your ISP to make sure about adding a computer to this device.

Hello My ISP needs a logon (at least on the computer running winXP does), and when I connect to the router (via wire) I get connected to the network (I get bytes sent and recieved), but I can't get online. And as I said the PPPOE connection wizard worked a month ago (and it required a password) and it rebbeled since the connection icon (to my ISP) mistiriously wanished douring one of the Vista crashes . Anyways I amgeting a wireless router (for I have two computers in the household), BUT the isue remains. Why the hell the WIZARD doesn't work. It should create a connection even if my LAN cable was unpluged.I just hate system glitches like this! So if you have any other ideas I will be thankful, I will be waiting for SP2 or maybe even win7.
