I recently purchased a new PC and decided to load it with the Windows 7 x64 RC. My only issue currently is that the PC isnt joining my Home Network Properly. If i open the Network Status i see my connection listed as Internet Only and not Local and Internet (screenshot below). Because of this...

Hello all, First time post, have spent several days and nights trying to get this going, and no luck. A bit of a nube. I am attempting to install a Virtual Machine (Server 2003) and connect to it from my host. I have installed the VM and it is up and running. Here's what I've done so...

I have a basic LAN with 4 computers running Windows 7 RC 7100... I have joined all the computers to the Home Group, but most of the time when switching on the computers, some do not appear on the scene, wether in Home Group, or My Network... it is only until you log into them that they appear...

I can join the computer to the domain and get a IP form the DHCP server, can see network and do everything within the LAN but I don't have internet access , if I change the settings to use a static IP, i get access to the internet. Anybody have ideas to fix this?

I am having difficulties logging into my dsl-g604t router's web interface using windows 7. The router works fine, and I am able to access the internet from both my desktop-ethernet and laptop-wireless (also running windows 7). If I try to connect to the router to enable port forwarding, etc...

is there any way of changing the cable modem static IP under Win 7?

Hi all, I came to this forum in order to get a solution for my problem. As many know and some would know now, when the drivers are not available for Windows 7, the NIC will just return a APIPA i.e., 169.x.x.x IP. We all thought this is a driver issue, but how do we find whether it is a driver...

Upgraded my Vista Ultimate desktop PC to Windows 7 RC and everything works perfectly... apart from the fact that I can't get an internet connection. I have a wired ethernet connectio to my adsl router and the router is connected to the internet, as my laptop does still have access. The wierd...

I cannot connect to the internet. Network and Connection Sharing shows my home network and an Unidentified network and both are local only. This started on my other computer with a Realtek network adapter (can't remember the model). After 2 updates last night, my computer (different) showed the...

hi, when i start computer and open inernet explorer everything is fine but after about minute my internet gone, and network manager (or whatever its called) says that my connection is limited. but in windows xp or any other os everything is fine. i have nvidia nforce 3, and my connection is with...

Every time I boot up my windows 7 I have to goto the network adapter properties because the default gateway has been deleted :mad: Still has my static IP and default DNS there but I always have to go and put in the address of the router each time i boot which is starting to get annoying...

I was unsure whether to port this in the hardware or software forum but here we go. I have been trying to install the utility program, which includes the driver, for the Linksys WMB54G Music Bridge. So far I have failed to make it work under Win7. After much research on many forums I seem to be...

Home Setup: 2 x WinXP Pro PC's 1 x WinVista Laptop 1 x Ubuntu PC 1 x Win7 PC WRT54G (All machines IP addresses are set statically) For some reason I am unable to get RDP to work on a Win7 PC when trying to connect from XP/Vista using the Netbios name or the IP address on the Win7 PC. For...

So I downloaded and installed Windows 7 and I think it is really awesome! The only 2 problems I have seen so far is that it acts like its behind a firewall even though I have a static IP set up and the ports are properly forwarded. The other one, and I'm not sure if there is a workaround or...

Good Day! I hope I can give enough info on this, so here goes... I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 that was running XP Pro. I upgraded to Vista Home Premium and all networking(wireless and wired) worked fine. I then went to my local coffee house and it worked fine there too via wireless. I then...

Hi, I'm having some issues with my work network. We have 3 computers hooked up to a netgear router with static IPs for each. The internet comes in through a DSL modem also hooked up to the router. Our website passes variables through the header and has some server-side code to it so I set up...

I stopped at a public library to access the Internet and pluged their network cable into my Vista laptop. Got a message that I couldn't use the network because my ip address conflicted with a computer already on the network. Puzzled, I checked my LAN settings. tcp/ip v4 properties: Obtain an...

Howdy folks. Here's the skinny. A friend of mine recently bought two new things within about a month of eachother; first was the aformentioned HP Photosmart C6100 printer with built in WiFi, and not long after that, a shiny new laptop with Vista Home Premium on. I had his wireless network...

I'm testing Vista RC2 on our LAN and it's doing something really strange. It's attempting to tell our DHCP server that there is a conflict on every single address in it's scope. I can hit refresh on the Microsoft DHCP server and just watch the red X's count up the scope until I power off the...
