"right click my computer..." No red or yellow marks.

2) I have fixed my set up and it is now set up so that the router ethernet>Laptop ethernet port and i have internet on the laptop.
(2) first, I read that to say you've disabled IPv6 on the laptop so the data shown here was before that . . . (otherwise disable it too)

and the wired laptop is now working?

The Node Type . . . : Peer-Peer may be of concern,
but the best thing I can hope to impress upon you is
If it isn't broken, then for sure DON'T FIXED :)
 
No i have diabled the IPv6 on this laptop, I followed the steps you gave me before created the thing and put in the 0f(8) did i do something wrong?
and yes now that i have this set up:
Ethernet cord one: router>laptop
eithernet cord two: router>modem
i have internet on my laptop and it is working
 
NO :) Just verifing we're on the same page :grinthumb

to recap thusfar
  • the desktop is wired and has Internet access
  • you laptop, when wired, gets a unique IP address without an conflicts to the desktop AND it has Internet
ps: you can see the IP address for any system with start->run->cmd /k ipconfig
and with all systems running, DHCP will ensure each IP is unique.

OK, As I recall, you now need to configure the WiFi portion of the router AND . . .
to fix the DNS address to avoid the timeout (which will improve over all Internet responsiveness)

What do you want to address first?

Recap issue: The desktop is no longer wired, i took the ethernetport from there and put it to the laptop.. so that my laptop was wired, when my laptop is just running on wifi (like it was before) it just has the local only connection.

so actual recap:
  • when desk top is wired via this set up: router>pc
    router> modem
    it has internet, the laptop only has a local connection when trying to connect wirelessly
  • when laptop is wired via this set up: router>laptop,
    router>modem it has internet and desktop doesnt(as it isnt connected to anything)
  • when hardwired this way: Ethernet cord one: router>pc
    ethernet cord two: router>laptop
    ethernet cord three: modem>router
    laptop maintains Internet access and on the desktop i get the "ip adress conflict" message. and my internet on the laptop slows down considerably and webpages wont load on a first atemtp (like i came in here to edit and add *third point, and when i saved it tooke me to the "yahoo search page coudlnt be loaded" and it was extreemly slow)
 
so actual recap:
  • when desk top is wired via this set up: router>pc
    router> modem
    it has internet, the laptop only has a local connection when trying to connect wirelessly
  • expected that and we need to config the router
    [*]when laptop is wired via this set up: router>laptop,
    router>modem it has internet and desktop doesnt(as it isnt connected to anything)
    yep!
    [*]when hardwired this way: Ethernet cord one: router>pc
    ethernet cord two: router>laptop
    ethernet cord three: modem>router
    this should work!
    laptop maintains Internet access and on the desktop i get the "ip adress conflict" message.
    (AA) suspect DHCP setup on both the desktop and the laptop
    and my internet on the laptop slows down considerably and webpages wont load on a first atemtp (like i came in here to edit and add *third point, and when i saved it tooke me to the "yahoo search page coudlnt be loaded" and it was extreemly slow)
    that's a consequence
on (AA), leave both systems wired to the router
on each, use start->run->cmd /k ipconfig and note the ip-addresses for each system ....

ok i typed in /k ipconfig and it told me it wasnt a recognized command so i just did the ipconfig /all>mytcp.txt again here it is forthe LAPTOP:

We need to stay on the wired config and jump to wifi only when the wired is working correctly - - please?
ok i typed in /k ipconfig and it told me it wasnt a recognized command so i just did the ipconfig /all>mytcp.txt again
should have been cmd /k ipconfig but you got the ans anyway :)

REALLY would like to solve the IP Conflict issue and that requires both the desktop & laptop to be wire and active at the same time; but ...

i have noticed that now on the desktop its not giving me an IP adress AT ALL but i am still getting the "IP adress conflict message on the desktop. Now to actually be able to POST this reply i have to unhook the desktop from the router or it iwll just continue to go to "yahoo! cannot display the webpage" because it is so slow or something else is interupting it, im not sure which. but i will plug it back in as soon as i post (note i only take it out the moment before i "submit reply")
 
desktop its not giving me an IP adress AT ALL but i am still getting the "IP adress conflict message on the desktop
access your router (with a wired connection only) and DISABLE WiFi - - bet you have an insecure connection and someone is riding on it! Another reason to work on one interface at a time.

wifi disabled, now what? i am going to have to get off the pc soon and will be off untill tomorrow.
 
my grandmother is saying she is going to get an AT&T router (what i do not want do) because she is getting frustrated (even though I'm the one doing the work..) do we just need to go ahead and get it, do i need to undo the settings i have done for IPv6? I want to keep working i know i hve a good router and i want to just keep fixing it, but well she doesnt see it that way. If i cant get this fixed like now/today shes going bak to at&t
 
Waste of time, effort & money.

We are adjusting the settings in the computer(s), and very little to do with the router per se.

Yes, this router can have issues, but we're going to have to configure this one or any other, so why bother . . . .
 
i dont want to do the at&t thing, i want to fix the one and all the issues i have, but she is getting frustrated, so what do I need to do to fix this?

First, explain the work is necessary regardless, so we might as well continue - - "Please be patient"

here's the WIRED setup that needs to be fixed before we proceed to getting the WiFi enable and secured properly;
Code:
modem===router
            |
            +----- wired --- desktop
            |
            +------wired ---- laptop
a) connect the desktop by itself and get Internet access working
b) leave it running, add the laptop and (i) verify the desktop is still correct and (ii) get the laptop running with Internet service too.

THEN and only then will we address configuring the WiFi portion of the router.

So get the setup and report the status of (a) and ignore the laptop for now.
 
that is the current connection:
modem==router
router(ethernet cord2)>desktop
router(ethernet cord 3)>laptop

Dekstop has internet and it is running at speeds it should be, but i have just turned the laptop on, and i expect it will be slowing down, since the laptop is trying to access the internet via the wired connection (local only is what it is telling me). Let me be clear the computer I currently have internet on is the Desktop
the laptop is wired, bbut getting only the local only connection.
are we set to get everything going?
(wifi has been disabled)

That is good information and we can work with that. Now leave that desktop alone.
(btw: more device connections do not imply a network slowdown), so just report status and let's get started - - -

Issue: Laptop is showing Local only. That says it can't find the router and its DHCP service. Leaving everything on the desktop alone, go to the laptop, get the ipconfig /all data and paste it into your follow-up . . .
 
ok i have ipconfig data.. on my laptop...i tried opening filesharing to acess it so i could paste it here, and it wont let me, it says check the name (its right) and check to make sure it is connected to the network (according to the desktop i am, but according to the laptop im not im on an "unidentified network"

that's right; local means nada and not file sharing either

OK, see the IPv6? disable it on the laptop - -
 
ok what part of I did what you told me to are you missing; I went to "regedit" found the folder sections you told me two> typed in the 8f's exited and rebooted i dont know why it is still saying its enabled i dont know what im doing wrong.
 
I mispelled it to begin with "DisableComponents' not DisabledComponents" i cant belive it took me two days to realise I had a spelling error.. i feel about stupid right now.
 
also need to change NodeType

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters\

set NodeType = 8

that's ok - - life with Windows :)

so where are we on the laptop?
 
also need to change NodeType

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters\

set NodeType = 8

need a clarification
1. on my System/currentcontrolset\services\ netbt (looks just like that am i in the right place?) and i dont see just "node type" i see "DhcpNodeTpe".. again am i in the right place? and all i type is "8" and reboot?
