Acer Vista Wirelesss problem solved
Couldn't get my new Acer Aspire 3680 to connect to my slightly older Gigafast router/WAP WF719-CAPR (actually a CC&C WA-2204A router - it is registered at the FCC under this name - but AKA Gigafast WF719-CAPR, AKA Blanc Wireless G router BW54R11, AKA MSI RG54SE , AKA Bluecomm WA-2204A, AKA Zonet ZSR1114WE). It turned out to be a Vista problem. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233/en-us has the solution, which involves adding one value to the Windows registry . My laptop is now connected wirelessly. 1.Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then click regedit in the Programs list. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click Continue. 2.Locate and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\{GUID} In this registry path, click the (GUID) subkey that corresponds to the network adapter that is connected to the network. 3.On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD (32-bit) Value. 4.In the New Value #1 box, type DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle, and then press ENTER. 5.Right-click DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle, and then click Modify. 6.In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK. 7.Close Registry Editor. |
