New Vista Notebook-internet Sharing Problem
I posted this in the titan section as well:
YO YO! lol i previously had a toshiba notebook running windows xp. It worked fine and I had no problems getting 1500 down and 400 up. I sold this one yesterday and ugraded to a newer toshiba running vista. This is what happens... I start internet sharing, and it connects fine, status goes to "connected". Internet works fine for about a minute. Then, any page I visit wont open and i get the "page cannot be displayed" message, but heres the kicker, INTERNET SHARING STILL SAYS CONNECTED!!! I have restarted the computer and mogul, tried different USB ports, still the same deal. Browsing in PIE works fine though... lastly, before I get the "page cannot be displayed" error, a quick screen comes up saying something like DNSerror. But no errors if im browsing from my phone. What gives? i cant figure this out and i HAAAATE when i cant figure stuff out. Please help guys ](*,) |
Re: New Vista Notebook-internet Sharing Problem
well my man, there's one minor problem with PIE, and that's the fact that it cannot view all pages that we visit. as for internet sharing, i haven't used it that much to tell ya if it has any issues to troubleshoot, but if i did, i'd have an answer for you and everyone else with the same problem in a heartbeat.

Re: New Vista Notebook-internet Sharing Problem
i appreciate that, i just tried my buddies mogul, hes running 2.17. same issue with his, hes running vista as well(happens to sit right next to me at work) And his laptop works fine with his, i guess ill have to find out why the hell this computer is doing this. It works fine over Lan or wi-fi though.

Re: New Vista Notebook-internet Sharing Problem
vista users can setup their devices through windows mobile device center before they do an activesync setup, but you can find it here...
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobi...icecenter.mspx this could work properly after the pre-sync setup as i would put it, but then again, i'll have to do some more homework on internet sharing some more. |
Re: New Vista Notebook-internet Sharing Problem

Just checking the simple stuff and I'm sure you've done this already, but you have to be surfing on your mogul before connecting Internet Sharing and then to the laptop. Also, b_prime is correct, but I believe there is an update to Mobile Device Center regarding improved Vista drivers. Check the link below: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en I think this finally got me to the promised land....posting this on my vista toshiba laptop while Internet Sharing, btw. |
Re: New Vista Notebook-internet Sharing Problem
this is really getting to me....ive updated wmdc, always sure that internet is connected on mogul first(or ill get error 67), unabled and enabled advanced network functionality, I cant figure this out. Ive checked to ensure that no firewalls/anti virus programs are killing the connection, still no luck. What bothers me is that internet sharing still says connected. I just dont get it. Im about to jump off of a bridge if i dont get this figured out.
AuburnMK- may I ask what model number your toshiba is? I have a A215 series notebook. **UPDATE** I finally got speedtest.net to load, and im usually around 1100-1500k download, i only hit around 400k, so maybe there could be something wrong with the network around cleveland, ohio. Thats the only other thing I could think of. Any more help would be appreciated-ill report back tomorrow morning, thanks for the input guys |
