On the ISP side of things it should be similar. I would use WAP for your wireless. The hacker kid tells me he can sniff WEP in a matter of minutes. You should have no problems. Make sure you set...

Just going on a hunch...try setting the exact same username and passwords on a, b, and c...try it again. I apologize - my ME/98 skills have long since faded but I believe there is a way to setup a...

If it's a Linksys I've found that the sweetspot, other than the default channel 6, is channel 5. Other routers in the proximity of your router set on the same channel will definitely cause signal...

Pulse - you should tell us more about your computer (click start-->run-->msinfo32 then click "ok"): how much RAM (total physical memory + available), what kind of pc (system manufacturer/system...

As you are a network admin in training I encourage you to take responsibility for your own learning and do exactly what the rest of us do when we need to learn something about technology - research! ...

Good advice Chris, I've also seen various Linksys devices choke on certain applications. I remember one specifically where my router would barf and choke every time I tried to use Windows...

Thanks DMR - sync async is just the connection speeds and doesn't have to do with how the connection is initiated...sorry bout that!

Interesting...I would have figured that would be reset when you reinstalled the IP stack. Glad to hear you got it working!

Check Blackbox: http://www.blackbox.com/Catalog/Category.aspx?cid=425,1036,1038

Well a few things here.

Check the ipconfig, notice the ppp adapter 169.254.xxx.xxx? That's an autoconfiguration address. That address range is what Windows assigns itself when it doesn't get an...

Oh yea...when you call the ISP it's all about how YOU present the problem to them. If you call up saying you need help setting up your wireless network of course they're gonna blow you off. Get help...

Well I can tell you one thing for sure...that IPv6 stack could be part of the problem. I would uninstall IPv6 from your network adapter unless you know you need it for some reason.

Hmm...notice...

Click Start-->Run and in the "Open" prompt type cmd and click "OK".

From the command prompt use telnet to diagnose a port issue:

Command: telnet <ip> <port>

Example: telnet...

1. Have you been unplugging the power on your DSL modem when you switch between your computer and the Linksys router? If not then do so!
2. Does your ISP use DHCP or a static IP (call them if you...

I believe that would be correct but without knowing more about the exact model of the router it's hard to say. The config options in the screenshot you gave makes me think your wireless router does...

I would be happy to assist with this issue but you need to be more specific and clear about your setup. Exactly what is the network topology and desired functionality: devices, services and ip...

use ls -la to list contents...perhaps it's some kind of permissions issue. I have also seen firewalls interfere with ftp operations - especially list commands...especially the Cisco VPN client. ...

If you are trying to use the built in VPN on Windows this probably won't work...about the best you could do with that would be to dial into eachother's computers over a phone line. I would suggest...

Might want to check this doc: http://www.cbesc.com/downloads/Network_Printer_Install.pdf

I set up HP printers w/raw IP all the time but maybe the Sharps like LPR? You may have checked this but,...

i used to do this with an old d-link as a backup and it worked pretty good. i would never pay for an ISP i couldn't manually configure.
...

Assuming you're talking about Windows...

- uniform location for data (peer-to-peer data could be on any machine...no way to manage/guarantee resources will be available when needed for business)...

Before you do anything else tell your landlord to change the channel from the default (usually 6 on linksys) to 3 or 9...sounds like both of you are getting interference in the signal...probably...

Click Start then Run and in the open prompt type cmd then click "OK". To find out the ip of the machine type ipconfig and then hit Enter. Write down the IP Address and go to the other machine and...

This post should be a new thread. To answer your questions:

1. The most important thing to take into account when mapping drives is whether you're using the name of the computer or its IP. In...

Do you know what sites? If you do then you should be able to just edit the hosts file (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts) on the server with the names of those domains and put the IP as...

These are around now and the price is lower...pretty sweet!

Sounds like new.net to me...when AdAware removes one of it's components it blows up the network connection...these are a pain if that's what it is since you will not have network connectivity to get...

You don't need a network setup disk...just use the IP address instead of the computer name. Start-->Run-->cmd then click "OK". In the command prompt you are! Type in ipconfig and note the IP...

Have you checked over at D-Link for an updated firmware? Also...is the router on a UPS? Is it possible you're losing power for a split second on the router...I know it sounds far-fetched but it was...

OR - save yourself the hassle and get yourself a cheapo router to do it all for you and that you can simply unplug when it gives problems.

Try the administrative share which will be whatever drive letter the external HD uses +$

example:

\\computer (file://\computer) name\e$

DFS would be a good bet...my post above still applies.

Possible solutions:

Computer 1:

First pull the power out of the hub and plug it back in just in case.

This is most likely one of two things:

1. Bad cable going from the hub to the...

I might try to do it this way: Setup a share specifically for projects working on that remote site on the site's local Win2K3 box and then point that server to a Samba DFS root housed on the Linux...

I hear ya but all the more reason to upgrade from the manufacturer...I'm with you though, I doubt it's the driver.

Here's something interesting, it looks unrelated but if you're using loopback...

...most of those home network routers need reboots often although I've heard the new Linksys ones are a lot better about that.

They'll say anything to get you off the phone although this is entirely possible...my house got struck by lightning and even though all the pcs were on surge protection the cable line was NOT...the...

I don't like instructions either but you should probably read them. Since you already have the network cards installed you should be able to connect to the gateway over ethernet...the manual will...

Have you rebooted everything? Particularly the cable modem? What is the topology of your network? Is there a router in the mix? What kind? Have you rebooted it? First thing I would do is go...

Yep...ICS is junk anyway and if it goes down, which it will, then you either have to know the services to restart or restart your PC - the router you can simply unplug, which is nice. A router also...
