I have a user that just recently got a VISTA pc. It is connected to our domain here. When he comes in first thing in the morning. His laptop will not connect to the network. looking at the routes. I found 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 gateway on-link. If I delete that route and add 0.0.0.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 it starts working again. Anyone have any ideas where this is coming from? Thanks

Hi, Just wondering if anybody has seen this problem. HP claims that they have not seen this problem (despite I have reported it before...) I have a Photosmart C6180 installed on my network. Under XP, everything seems to work fine.

Hi- On some of the workstations on my SBS2003 network the Network and Sharing Center is showing the network connection as "Unauthenticated" and showing a yellow triangle icon. It doesn't seem to have any impact on performance that I can see, but looks messy. What does Unauthenticated in this context mean, and why do some

I have an EnGenius USB wifi adapter and it seems to work better than the built in wifi in my laptop.

But it automatically connects to the one that doesn't work anymore. I have tried lowering the priority, turning off...

Hi, I just installed an old XP machine in an existing and working network with a mix of XP and Vista PCs. From the newly installed XP machine I can access the files on the other computers, but when trying to log onto the internet, I get the message that the connection was interrupted.

My user's Dell M1330 laptop recently bought is not able to get connected to networks both with the NIC and the Wireless card. We know the router is not the problem because other Desktop (wired connection) and Laptop (wireless) can connect to the router just fine. The problem is basically because the laptop NIC is not getting an IP address assigned by DHCP server, and further investigating...

I have 2 machines running Vista and 1 running Mac Leopard. I can't get them to play nice. The wireless network is connected to the internet through my Mac (airport). All computers can access the internet. My desktop (vista) can reach a mac location I created by adding a network location on my computer. My laptop (vista) can't reach the Mac at all. The worst part about it is that my 2 vista...

I hope this is the right forum. I'm helping a friend with setting up his home network. He has two desktop PC's; one running Vista the other running Windows 7.

When I try to diagnose it I get this message: "Wireless association failed because Windows did not...

The folks at Google seems to think that the desktop is ripe for the taking and plan to release Chrome OS. I wrote a piece on Chrome OS, with an accompanying video, at: http://windows7reports.com/2010/11/16/google-chrome-os-arises-to-challenge-windows-7/ Realistically, what do you think Chrome's chances are vs. MS Windows 7 or Vista? Is the idea of a browser-based OS appealing to you? Can all...

Hey guys I'm hoping I'm just overlooking something dumb here but I need some help. I just upgraded to Vista Home Premium last night. I use my laptop at work ad I'm having some issues.

The only machine that drops the connection constantly is the one running Vista. I'm using a Linksys WUSB54GS wireless card and a Linksys WRT54GX router, and this equipment worked fine under XP. The computer itself is more than sufficient to run...

My Acer desktop computer with Vista worked fine hard wired to a wireless router that connected my HP laptop with Windows 7 until about 3 weeks ago. Now whenever the desktop wakes from sleep mode I have to reset the local network adapter. I have tried setting up a static IP address, updating drivers, using Microsoft FixIt (twice) and just about every suggestion in the web and nothing works. ...
