Question : Wireless Network Adapter spoilt the system's tcp/ip
|
|
i have a Fujitsu S6010 notebook and a Zonet ZEW1000IU PCMCIA type II 802.1b wireless adapter.
my notebook is running on windows XP professional and i'm using active sync for my pocket pc. my notebook is connected to the internet through LAN.
after i've installed my wireless adapter and rebooted windows, an error dialog popped up immediately after i log in into windows.
the message was:
Mobile device Properties
the tcp/ip transport was not installed. xxxxx......
after ignoring the message, i realized that all my networking devices couldn't work properly. i can't access to the internet anymore... my notebook couldn't get an IP from DHCP server either. when i tried to renew the IP (with ipconfig /renew), an error occurs and it said that the tcp/ip protocol was not installed. i've checked the LAN adapter properties, the tcp/ip protocol is already listed and checked.
besides, my wireless adpater can detect the available networks around me, but can access because of the same tcp/ip error. i've used the latest device drivers.
after several trial and error, i found out that the pop up message during the start up was because of the active sync. somehow, the wireless adapter installation has corrupted my window's tcp/ip.
what should i do, in order to use my wireless lan adapter without interferring other devices or cofigurations?

How to Reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in Windows XP
View products that this article applies to.
This article was previously published under Q299357
For a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 version of this article, see 317518.
SUMMARY
When viewing the list of components for a network interface, you may notice that the Uninstall button is disabled when Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is selected. In Windows XP, the TCP/IP stack is considered a core component of the operating system; therefore, it is not possible to uninstall TCP/IP in Windows XP.
In extreme cases, reinstalling the Internet Protocol stack may be the most appropriate solution. With the NetShell utility, you can now reset the TCP/IP stack back to a pristine state, to the same state as when the operating system was installed.
MORE INFORMATION
The NetShell utility (netsh) is a command-line scripting interface for the configuring and monitoring of Windows XP networking. This tool provides an interactive network shell interface to the user.
In Windows XP, a reset command is available in the IP context of the NetShell utility. When this command is executed, it rewrites pertinent registry keys that are used by the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) stack to achieve the same result as the removal and the reinstallation of the protocol.

Command Usage
netsh int ip reset [log_file_name]
To successfully execute the command, you must specify a log file name where actions taken by netsh will be recorded. For example, typing either of the examples that are listed in the "Command Samples" section later in this article at a command prompt would reset the TCP/IP stack on a system and record the actions that were taken in the log file, Resetlog.txt. The first sample creates the log file in the current directory, while the second sample demonstrates the use of a path where the log will be created. In either case, where the specified log file already exists, the new log will be appended to the end of the existing file.
Command Samples
netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt
netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt
Sample Log File for NETSH INT IP RESET
The following is a sample of the log file that is generated by netsh when an IP reset command is issued. The actual log file may vary depending on the configuration of the system on which the command is issued. In some cases, there may be no actions logged in the file, which typically is the case when the TCP/IP registry keys have not been altered from their original configuration.

method 2
Had to point the Install to the "nettcpip.inf" in the windows/inf directory. That allows TCP/IP to install over the top of the TCP/IP required for operation of Windows XP.
and a winsock fix
