I don't sugar coat things and am not politically correct. I made a single comment on 1 reply, I did not intend to offend you. I'm sure if the right questions are properly worded, even you would be surprised at the answers.īryan, perhaps your being defensive? Please play nice and don't assume so much. However, I do look forward to you posting the results of your survey. It is fairly safe to say my reply was valid since I would have been addressing an IT support staff member, System Admin, Network Admin, or helpdesk employee.Īs for where I work? Well, we do not use wireless access points here so it's a non-issue. Spiceworks is a community of IT Professionals,not end users. Your assumption that I was replying to an end user is no fault of mine.
UNDOCK WINDOWS IN WINDOWS 7 PASSWORD
Going back to my only post in this thread, made over a year ago, if you actually READ what I said, I never suggested that an end user have a password to an enterprise wireless access point. I'm not sure what your problem is with me and my responses but seeing as how you have very few contributions to the community and near non-existant helpful and best answers I can only guess that you are here to flame long time community members that actually contribute and try to pick fights with us. If I remember correctly, wireless adapters need to establish a connection before actually communication over said connection. I mean, It would be a problem for a wireless adapter to obtain an IP address and DNS settings if the wireless adapter will not connect to the network. Please remember that the world does not revolve around you and your specific problem of the day before blasting someone else trying to help someone over a year ago.Īlso, I do believe you are correct about this being a DNS or DHCP problem. Just because one answer doesn't seem to fit your specific issue does not make it a lame answer. Is there a way to automatically remove the entry in DHCP when a connection is lost when switching from wired to wireless? Just an idea This almost seems to be more of a DHCP\DNS issue where DNS becomes confused by 2 entries in DHCP, one for the wireless and the other for the wired connections. Windows should connect to the first saved wireless network in range with the saved password after undocking but doesn't or if going from wireless back to docked it also may not reconnect and then the user cannot access internal or external resources. NO, we don't provide the wireless passwords to staff. This is a lame answer! We have a similar issue and. If you know the password to access the Wifi network, go in to manage wireless networks and tell windows to forget that network then reconnect to it. Techy info: Lenovo X220 laptop, Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 AGN wireless adapter We can't have everyone using the wireless over their ethernet as there isn't enough space and when they undock, they get kicked out of alot of their apps since they are virtual (remote pc or cloud based).
I've been browsing forms for possible solutions in addition to my own troubleshooting and I've tried changing the battery scheme to max power for the wireless, telling Windows not to disable it to save power, set the permissions on C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\WwanSvc to everyone but nothing has worked.
It's just the reverse that Windows doesn't either seem capable of doing or WANTING to do. The annoying thing is that when you DOCK the laptop, it defaults to it's ethernet connection and disconnects the wireless (which I don't have a problem with).
UNDOCK WINDOWS IN WINDOWS 7 HOW TO
I've been working on this problem for over a week now and it's time to see if anyone else has any ideas about how to resolve this.Īs the Subject states, when undocking a Win7 Enterprise edition laptop from it's dock, it doesn't switch back to it's remembered wireless network.
