Our community centre has WiFi with WEP security. When I try to connect to it using my Win7 netbook, it does not offer any opportunity to enter a password, then it thinks for about 1 minute, then issues a failure message (I am writing this from memory at home, so I can't recall the exact wording of the error message). IIRC, I had tried to connect at some point in the past and may have entered an...

I have Vista, DSL, and a laptop. If I open Mobility Center with the Start menu there is no "connection tile" there. So in order to connect I have to right-click the taskbar icon, click on "connect to network" in the bubble, go to "Wireless" where I get the error that the "network cannot be found". I have to go through diagnose, repair, and resolution process, then the connection opens. I am...

When you turn on file and printer sharing, both file and printer sharing are turned on. Is there a way to turn on printer sharing only? by default, c$ is always shared on windows XP pro, I am not sure about vista/windows 7 home premium. So there is some security risk with file sharing, while there is less risk with printer sharing. The PCs are behind the firewall, however, there is a...

I have a laptop and I'm trying to find out if I can use it at Starbucks and Panera and if so how? Do I need any special software or do I just connect to theirs? I don't understand how it works...obviously.

Upgraded from RC2 to RTM a week or so ago. Networking was working fine for a week and then after a reboot the network is no longer accessible. Network adapter reports: "Unidentified Network" and "Access: Local Only". Trying to renew DHCP fails and the adapter gets assigned a private IP (169). Disabling/reenabling the adapter makes no difference as does uninstalling and re-installing...

Hi all, I have a network with a Vista and an XP computer. I have created a "transfer" share on the Vista machine that I want to use for reading and writing from the XP machine. The user names and passwords are different between the computers, so XP prompts me to enter user name and password whenever I access the folder. When I enter the correct info, everything works - I can access and write to...

I was noticing odd disconnects running networked application on my laptop since installing vista on it. After quite a bit of delving, what I'm seeing is this. I'm using ping as a way of checking for network connectiveity, it is a basic but seemingly effective way of seeing how well I'm connected. When I test my connection by pinging a known machine from vista I get a pretty consistent...
