"The browser has forced an election on network /Device/NetBT_E100B5 because a master browser was stopped." This message is normal, it means nothing unusual unless is repeated very often I don't know If this helps :hmm: |
Why would the ?'master browser'? 'stop'?
|
BOAC,
"The system detected that network adapter Compaq NC6134 Gigabit NIC (NB Not MINE) was connected to the network, and has initiated normal operation over the network adapter. A single TCPIP 4201 event is typical after you restart the computer or after you disable or enable the network adapter." The Master Browser hasn't necessarily stopped - I suspect that it just can't communicate because your network card is yo-yoing. SD |
...........yes, buy why? Can someone offer any clues? Is it the browser that is causing the break or a TCPIP problem - ie do I re-install either/both or is there some other data I can look at to locate the problem? This am the wifi link 'broke' on the PC within 2 minutes of boot and I am now running on the RJ45 which is ok right now.

Still scratching thorugh the undergrowth on this. I need help please to remove some installed items.
I looked in Hardware, hidden items and it still shows the USB/RJ45 adapter athough it has been physically unplugged and likewise an older wifi card which was replaced some months ago by a new one. EDIT: Found an uninstall prog:ugh:I actually had two instances of the USB/RJ45 which might have been causing the problem? I now have one. Card is a UN-LU 20AN from ?'Shenzhen'? I have 'disabled' both and removed any folders from the registry which refer. Booted into safe and tried to 'uninstall' but am told they may be required during boot. I cannot see where, msconfig, registry, all start-up folders show no trace. Where are the b***s hiding and how do I persuade them to 'leave'? |
My house mate had a similar problem. We each have a computer connected to a router. He was using win XP and was trying to connect to the router via a G202 wireless usb adapter while I was connecting via a standard ethernet cable. The router is in my room so I don't mind a cable and well my OS is a bit flakey with wireless.
When he tried to access the router the connection would cycle connect/disconnect. We tried an ethernet cable and he got the "limited connectivity" warning. I had no problems, except sometimes I lost WAN side access but could still see the router (only during the occassions he was trying to connect to the router). Our router has a "bandwidth manager". I turned it off. Both connections work perfectly now. I thought it would be worth pointing this one out. Perhaps it is not as helpful to this discussion but with people experiencing similar issues this is worth a try. Router model: Zyxel P660HW. Got to Advanced -> Bandwidth MGMT -> uncheck for LAN, WLAN and WAN. Check out the settings in your router maybe there is something similar. LG |
LG - thank you for that. This thread shows how I sorted it out with bnt's help, and 'discovered' I had the very thing I needed on the mobo:ugh:, just lacked the drivers. Talk about 'limited' tech info on the Mobo - a large sheet of paper folded into A4 size was all I got, and no mention of downloading the drivers. Nothing obvious on the CDRom or the web either.
As you will see the new 'connection manager' part of the download knackered ALL connections but when un-installed it was fine. |
