Hai,
My system is connected via LAN (100.mbps wire); my system is not connecting to any other computer (neither I can access any system nor my system can be accessed by another). To troubleshoot this i checked with LAN Status and it shows Packets Sent is more than 10,000 but receives zero.
Please help me how to solve. I would appreciate a lot if any overcome this solution.
My system details:

Windows XP2
Norton Antivirus installed
network : Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC
TCP IP Address has been set correct:
192.168.1.111
255.255.255.0 -Subnet mast
192.168.1.1 -Default gateway

Hope i will get a good solution. If more information need please ask me. Thanks a lot in advance

Are you trying to ping other computers? If so, check your firewall to make sure it allows ICMP.

Start -> Control Panel -> Networking -> Right click the device, check to make sure it's enabled.

You could disable it & re-enable it, or try selecting repair & see if that solves the issue. Is there another device on the lan with the same ip? I find it interesting that you have an ip address, but show zero packets received.

I disabled and re-enabled the same, also selected to repair but problem persists.

Could you give us a bit more info about your network? How many computers are on it? What are you using to connect them together etc

Is DHCP enabled or are you using static addresses?

First and foremost, I'm assuming your connected to the same switch and router, and since you have posted the ip, sm, and default gateway you must know at least what they are (assumption).

So, the solution will probably be 1 of 2 things in my experience.

1. Make sure you are on the same network (yes, physical connection matters but the computers have to know who is able to access who as well). To do this, right click on my computer and go to properties. Click on the "Computer Name" tab. Now click on "Change Name", and then either add them to the domain (if you have a dedicated server for this networking business which you probably don't) or add your computer (and all of the others) to the correctly named Workgroup. The name of the workgroup on all of the computers must match exactly. Now restart the computer.

2. Your firewall is blocking access through the port, disable the appropriate firewall option or the firewall alltogether. (The second option assumes you have already completed the first).

This Problem started after i re-crimped the network wire. Though I crimped both end to be paralleled, also lan status
(shows) found to be connected. May it be my crimping problem. ? if so please let me know what is the procedure while crimping.

My network crimping :
1. Brown
2. Brown-white
3. Green
3.Green-white
4.Bue
5.Blue-white
6.Orange
7.Orange-white

other end of the wire also has the same crimped.

Please help me in this regard
thanks

As long as both sides match. I believe you swap 3 & 6, & 4 & 5.

I use the following :

1. Blue /White
2. Blue
3. Orange /White
4. Green
5. Green /White
6. Orange
7. Brown /White
8. Brown
