[SOLVED] Re: Cannot access computer connected via wireless

[Garthh]

I'm have this very issue, but posted in the wrong place

Heres the data from a wired laptop running xp pro, which can be seen by the wireless laptop running vista. The incoming connection is dsl coming into a 4 port router. one port connects directly to the xp machine w/a ethernet cable, one port connected to a lynksys "G" wireless. I have a regular ether switch if there is some better way to connect I'll try it.

Even though it appears you're having the same problem, please start a new thread when you have a new issue. It's very difficult to keep two problems straight and who's working on what in a single thread.

I've created a new thread for your issue here.

Note: You will need to post complete details of your configuration and your specific issue in this new thread for us to help you.

Thanks for your cooperation.

New Thread?

[johnwill]

Yes, you posted in another person's thread.


The THREAD is the initial *starting* post.

I've created a new thread for your issue here.

I don't see a link to a new thread

I understand the difference between posts & threads

[johnwill]

You're posting in the new thread!

How about telling us the complete details of your issue instead of arguing about what a thread is. I think my first post covered it, you posted your query in another person's thread, I simply moved it to start one for your unique issue.


We need to know the exact environment as well as specifically what your issue is.



Please supply the following info, exact make and models of the equipment please.

Name of your ISP (Internet Service Provider).
Make and exact model of the broadband modem.
Make and exact model and hardware version of the router (if a separate unit).
Model numbers can usually be obtained from the label on the device.
Connection type, wired or wireless.
If wireless, encryption used, (none, WEP, WPA, or WPA2)
Version and patch level of Windows on all affected machines, i.e. XP (Home or Pro), SP1-SP2-SP3, Vista (Home, Business, Ultimate), etc.
The Internet Browser in use, IE, Firefox, Opera, etc.




Please give an exact description of your problem symptoms, including the exact text of any error messages.

• If you're using a wireless connection, have you tried a direct connection with a cable to see if that changes the symptoms?
• For wireless issues, have you disabled all encryption on the router to see if you can connect that way?
• Have you connected directly to the broadband modem to see if this is a router or modem/ISP issue?
• If there are other computers on the same network, are they experiencing the same issue, or do they function normally?

On any affected computer, I'd also like to see this:

Hold the Windows key and press R, then type CMD (COMMAND for W98/WME) to open a command prompt:

Type the following commands on separate lines, following each one with the Enter key:

PING 206.190.60.37

PING yahoo.com

NBTSTAT -n

IPCONFIG /ALL

Right click in the command window and choose Select All, then hit Enter.
Paste the results in a message here.

If you are on a machine with no network connection, use a floppy, USB disk, or a CD-RW disk to transfer a text file with the information to allow pasting it here.
