In reply to Great White North's post on June 2, In reply to Great White North's post on June 4, Have vista Service Pack 2 Installed which is fully updated as a search for updates returns no new updates that's not installed This could be caused by the OS Vista in this case , misconfiguration by the user or IT Admin, network issues, or other causes.
Thus, it is not a question of if you will need to perform Vista network troubleshooting, it is a question of when will you need to perform Vista network troubleshooting. In this article, I will walk you through my 5 tips that I recommend you use to troubleshoot Windows Vista networking issues.
Let us start with the first tip. I recall reading my first Cisco networking book and learning about the 3 different approaches to network troubleshooting see my article How to use the OSI Model to Troubleshoot Networks.
If you look at the OSI Model , you will see that it is a layered model that represents all the different parts which make up a network. Think of physical layer as the cabling, NIC interfaces, switches, and electric signals that go across the wire. My point is to start your troubleshooting by checking for physical connectivity. Here are some questions to ask yourself:. Whether you have a wired or wireless connection, the questions are the same or similar.
Take for example this Vista Wireless network connection status:. Figure 1: Vista Wireless Connection Status. In this case, the media is wireless but the important thing is that it is enabled. If you are attempting to connect to a wireless network, make sure that you are actually connected to a network.
You can click on Connect to a Network to either connect or disconnect from a wireless or dialup network. On a computer with a physical Ethernet connection, you are going to look for the same thing. Figure 2: Windows Media Stat. On this server, you can see that the Ethernet media on the wired LAN connection is enabled and you can see that the speed is If you can verify these things, more on up the OSI model until you find the issue.
Let us say that you checked your media state and your link light and you have physical network connectivity. To do this, open the Network and Sharing Center and assuming you have a connection, click on the View Status for your connected network interface. Figure 3: Viewing the Status of your Connection.
If you take a look at the details for the connection in Figure 4, notice that this connection has no default gateway or DNS servers. Select the check box next to Preserve Favorites website data.
