Title: Limited Or No Connectivity on Main PC
Post by: hiloboy1 on December 04, 2006, 02:32:25 PM: I keep having this problem every couple of months

System:
MS XP
HP Prisario
on board LAN

I get the "Limited Or No Connectivity" on my main PC; I'm running a wirless to my kids homework computer and to my laptop, the both of them can access the internet with no problems, but the Main Computer the runs the wireless system and is connected to the DSL gives me "Limited Or No Connectivity" (its like its blocked by something). I've uninstalled the Zone Alarm with AV, rolled back to 3 days ago when I could access the internet, remove/uninstalled the new video card, but nothing has worked. I'm computer challenged so please help ;D. This happened before and I fixed it by uninstalling the AV/firewall, but it didn't work this time.

Post by: 2k_dummy on December 04, 2006, 03:57:18 PM: If you haven't already, reinstall your AV and firewall. You need 'em on DSL. Take a deep breath and say, "Screw you, Bill Gates, You don't know know where I want to go today!" ;D After you've done this, reboot the router by disconnecting the power for 3-5 seconds and reconnecting.

Sometimes XP thinks it knows more about what you want than you do. ;D

Thanks so much

Post by: hiloboy1 on December 04, 2006, 11:17:43 PM: Ok, I've tried all and stil no luck; I've even gone as far as to assign an IP, subnet, Gateway and DNS also with no luck. I tried to ipconfig /all and the black box flashes on the screen then disappears. The only thing left is to see if my onboard lan is working, but I don't know how to do that. Any suggestions?

Post by: hiloboy1 on December 04, 2006, 11:40:24 PM: The Computer now says I've now got a connection but it's still not letting me on the internet; as stated before my other computers get on with no problem. Here's the settings:

IP address: 192.168.1.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.254

Dns: 192.168.1.1

????????

Post by: Rob Pomeroy on December 05, 2006, 04:34:39 AM: Go to a command prompt on a working machine. (Start-->Run: type "cmd" [ENTER]) Do ipconfig /all there. Repeat on the non-working machine. Post results here.

I've tried pinging and no luck, I've reset this thing 20 times no luck; my IT expert at work said I either have to reset my DCP IP Stack or I have a bad onboard lan. Whats you advise?

Thanks

Title: Re: Limited Or No Connectivity on Main PC
Post by: hiloboy1 on December 07, 2006, 05:24:15 PM: 2k,

I'm computer handicap so help me along ;D; the biggest difference it the main I have to set the IP etc. because if I don't it won't see the connection. I guess what I'll try to do is mimic the settings of the Laptop and change the Desktop to the following:

IP: 192.168.2.3
Default Gateway: 192.168.2.1
DNS Server: 192.168.2.1

Is this correct?

Title: Re: Limited Or No Connectivity on Main PC
Post by: hiloboy1 on December 07, 2006, 07:16:11 PM: I made the changes; but still says local lan connected but won't let me connect. It looks for the page/pages but then goes to the white screen of death.

Title: Re: Limited Or No Connectivity on Main PC
Post by: ale52 on December 07, 2006, 08:18:09 PM: Your problem is that your 'main' computer has an address (amongst other things) of 192.168.1.1 and the others have an address of 192.168.2.2. Is that one set to a static IP in the LAN settings?

Post by: hiloboy1 on December 07, 2006, 11:35:56 PM: I've had enough of this machine; so I went out and spent $15 and bought a new lan card, its working like a charm.

Thanks to all that tried to help me

My twins are 26 months, although they'd be 23 months if they'd've gone full term...
Title: Re: Limited Or No Connectivity on Main PC
Post by: JMJFOK on April 20, 2008, 02:31:34 PM: looks like I have same problem as fella in this trail, have done most of same things. Suspect either a virus interfered or I deleted something.

Shows gibberish as an IP address.

At start up, missing two files
ylcysddd.dll
mjrvfyta.dll

Can you help?
I would rather figure out than buying a card!

Title: Re: Limited Or No Connectivity on Main PC
Post by: viking on April 25, 2008, 06:01:38 AM: These two files are not "original" windows files.
You have to use an antivirus and other programs to search for viruses and other garbage on your computer. It seems your Windows computer is compromised...
