[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless (More info?)

I am looking to download really usefull step by step instructions
to set up a wireless network on WnXP using Belkin router,
with laptop with Belkin Wireless Notebook Card.

I need something I can sit down and read over very carefully.
Belkins own instructions do not do that for me.

If the icon appears, but is shaded out, right-click on it and select enable.
Otherwise you will need to install a network card.

When I look in the Device Manager I see
the following 4 Network Adaptors

1394 Net Adaptor
Alcatel Speedtouch USB ADSL PPP
Belkin 54 Mbos Network Adaptor
SIS 900- Based PCI EthernetAdaptor.

These do not show in the Star / Control Panel /
Network Connections page

The above devices are reported as enabled and working properly.
They are not greyed out, Carey. They are just not there.

Puzzled.

Cheers...Robert

You mention having a desktop and a laptop. Which PC are you referring to in
this most recent response and what operating system is it running?

It is an HP Pavilion t430.uk running WinXP with
Service Pack 2 installed (about 9 months old)
256mb DDR / 2 .7 Gh Celeron /120 GB HDD

This will be the Base machine.
------------------------------


I intend to link a brand new Laptop
Packard-Bell easynote H5
Pentium 4 / 3.2Gh 60 G HDD
Running WinXP with SP2 to it.

later on I want to introduce an older
Desktop Packard-Bell on Win 98 but
that's for another time

Thank you very much for taking the time to help me.

Regards ....Robert

What do you see in your Network Connections icon in your control panel?

It is headed Network Connections.
Down the LH side of the sreen it says.

Create New Connection
Setup a home or small office network
Change Windows Firewall
---------------------------------------| (No Icons appear here on
the
main part of the screen)
SEE ALSO
Network troubleshooter
---------------------------------------| (No Icons appear here on
the
main part of the screen)
OTHER PLACES

Control Panel
My Network Places
My Documents
My Computer
-----------------------------------------| (No Icons appear here on
the
main part of the screen)
DETAILS
Network Connections
System Folder


That's it. There is nothing on the field where you'd expect to see the
icons.
It does of course say that the Network has to be enabled as stated
previously.

Cheers...Robert.

I would recommend you remove/uninstall all of the network devices in the
Device Manager and then allow the computer to search and locate/install them
again.

PS. I cannot start the Network Setup Wizard.either.
Is this a clue.?? Suppose I restore to an earlier time??
Would that help.

Once again: I would recommend you remove/uninstall all of the network

Carey,

OK. That is what I will do.
Thanks for having a look at the problems.
I just 'know' that your setup instructions will
work once I get access to the Icon.

Hi,

Can you go to control panel, add or remove programmes, click on add/remove
window components, scroll down to networking services, click on it then
click properties and confirm that the following services are selected:

Internet Gateway Device Discovery and Control Client
Peer-to-peer
Simple TCP/IP Services
UPnP User Interface

If they aren't there, add them and reboot. If they are there cancel out and
right click on My Computer then click on Manage.

Go down to Services and Applications and click on services. Look for
Network Connections. Status should be Started, Start Up Type should be
manual. If it is not started, double click on it and click start where it
says Service Status. Change from disabled to manual if it says disabled.
