Re: [WISPA] computer won't connect to radio

This turned out to be a bad nic card.  It was damaged in a storm and would 
go short distances (like to a router in another location) but not the 100' 
to the radio.

The card died the rest of the way about 3 weeks later.

OK, here's a good one.

Have a long term customer that can't get internet all of the sudden.

Shows no cable plugged into his computer.

Had him try a laptop, it worked fine.

Next had him take his computer to a repair shop for a new nic card.  His
computer DID work in town though.

Back home, it wouldn't work with the radio.

So I went out there to check this out.  My laptop would work just fine.  His
desktop wouldn't.

I ended up installing a router and all is working nicely now.  His computer
will talk to the router, but going right to the radio we show no cable
connected.

Anyone seen this before?

I assume this is being caused by some kind of voltage miss match that the
other devices aren't as sensitive to?

My laptop is doing the same thing. It was connected to the switch at
the tower that got the lightning. When I connect it to the new ap, I
can use it to configure it but when I connect it to the Internet
nothing. Strange.

Computer probably got an pdate for the NIC that tweaked the driver.

Do your radios have Ethernet statistics? You could connect the PC back to the 
radio and watch the stats to see if the Ethernet Interface is flapping. Then 
force the radio to 10HDX and see if the flapping stops.

When I can send a tidbit to a god I feel privileged.

When I see that stuff, it usually means the tcpip stacks are corrupted.  I
keep this file in a text file on my service laptop and use accordingly.  The
text of the file follows:





TCP/IP stack repair options for use with Windows XP with SP2.

For these commands, Start, Run, CMD to open a command prompt.

Reset WINSOCK entries to installation defaults: netsh winsock reset catalog

Reset TCP/IP stack to installation defaults. netsh int ip reset reset.log 




Follow these steps to reset the Internet Explorer configuration settings: 

1.Open Internet Explorer, click Tools, and then click Internet Options. 
2.Click the Advanced tab, and then click Reset. 
3.In the Internet Explorer Default Settings dialog box, click Reset. 
4.When you have reset the settings, click Close, and then click OK to
restart Internet Explorer.
In Internet Explorer, you do not usually have to reregister Internet
Explorer files. The Reset All Defaults feature includes an option to
reregister Internet Explorer files as a troubleshooting step.

Do both ends.  I have seen setting one end work for a while, then it 
seems the other tries to negotiate and doesn't get what it wants and 
goes bonkers.  I have never had an issue when both were hard set to the
