the commands following CMD, I assume enter after each?kenc51 wrote:On his Dads pc, got start / run, and type "services.msc" then restart the "Wireless Zero config" service. After that, goto network connections, r-click the wireless connection and goto the "wireless setup" tab. Delete the prefered wireless networks at the bottom.dicecca112 wrote:well we got it to work don't as me how. I forced flashed the router, ie had the login page up, then held reset, and a page to flash the firmware pops up. Did that, no dice. Then for some reason after another reset it took the password. Well it didn't work on his dad's laptop would say it was connected but it wouldn't work, wired would work, not wireless. So I got to fix his son's computer. And sure enough his wireless works no problem. So its most likely his dad's laptop's wireless card
If that doesn't work, reset tcp/ip via start / run and type "cmd" then "netsh" then "int" then "ip" then "reset" then close and reopen the command prompt and type "netsh dump" and reboot.
If that doesn't work, connect via ethernet and goto http://192.168.1.1 and click wireless, then advanced wireless settings. Change the default channel to 3 and test.
Also make sure SP2 is installed on the pc as that increased wifi compatibility alot.
I'll try this tonight. Somehow we always end up trying to fix the computer, then getting hammered while playing darts, I'm not complaining. But tomorrow is the last day for me to try. His son is going home Sat, and Friday we are going to a St. Patties day Celebration at the Harpoon Brewery in Boston. 5$ pints, means Matt is gonna be really drunk
