Sp2 Problem Or Is It?

[Cyberbeer]

Can anyone tell me why my LAN connection says Limited to no Connectivity after I installed SP2. I have disabled the firewalls and allowed it as an exception but I still get it. The connection is set up for me and my cousin to play network games it has no connection to the internet. I first thought that could be the problem but I am not sure. I do connect to the internet using a wireless USB adapter, any thoughts?

after sp2 is installed, u only have 10 limited connections to anything, so it really slows down your system or no connectivity if u run alot of internet related ..

should fix the problem

[Cyberbeer]

I have no more event ID 4226, but I still get the message from Windows saying limited to no connectivity. Starting to piss me off.

[Bboy Satch]

did u use the patch?

[Cyberbeer]

Yes I did. Like I said no more Event 4226 happening on my computer. But I still get the limited connectivity message.

did you try to reinstall TCP/IP? Sometimes I've found that reinstalling TCP/IP will help cure the problem. I dunno why it happened after you installed SP2, I've never seen it happen. Or it could just be coincidence and maybe TCP/IP was corrupted by something else.

Try to rebuild the tcp/ip stack by typing this or coping this into the run comand

 

netsh int ip reset mynetsh.log

 

and see if it helps. Some times like LobbDogg said your tcp/ip can get corrupted but it isn't nessecarry to uninstall the tcp/ip in XP like 98.

 

P.S. you can see what was changed by going to C:\Documents and Settings\mynetsh.txt it helps to see what was changed and it is a shorter solution.

Maybe just maybe this will work(i did this to configure my router so)

 

Start-->Run-->Cmd

 

type : ipconfig /release

 

and then : ipconfig /renew

 

 

Should reset your IP's...Maybe SP2 set them to different one

What's this EventID 4226?

The EventID 4226 means, that there are to many concurrent TCP connection attempts. A connection attemp is a query to a computer, if it accept the TCP connection or not. If the computer is for example no more existent, it will be waited for a few seconds, until a timeout occurs and the connection attemp get canceled.

Since XP SP2 there are only 10 concurrent TCP connection attempts possible, while in SP1 it has not been limited.

if i run this, can i undo the change? what does this really mean?

ya SP2 screws up one of my computers internet settings as well.

 

for some reason after i installed SP2 on it, iam forced to disable the internet connection and then reenable it for it to work.

 

it kinda gets annoying, so i try not to restart that 1 computer to much

i also noticed a similar issues with sp2 and discconecting all the time. in my event viewer there were a lot of dhcp errors, why i have no idea. but i assiagned a static ip and it has gone away
