Wireless Zero Configuration
Have looked at many solutions to article 871122 problems but cant seem to
find one that corrects mine. Our ISP was BT, which turned off WZC. I want to change from BT and have deleted the programmes via Add and Delete Programmes in the Control Panel. Running XP by the way. When the laptop searches for networks it still only finds BT's. Can’t seem to turn WZC back on. Can anyone help? |

Do you have a different configured router? |

The PC in question is a laptop. There are no extra modems etc. The BT
installation disc turned off Microsoft's WZC.

Have tried this for a second time and it seem to have worked. Thanks for your
thoughts. Open this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\WZCSVC 3. Create a DWORD value named "Start" and set it to 2. -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) "alfredgerald" wrote: The PC in question is a laptop.

Might be worth adding that there is typically NO need to install this ISP software, and in general I avoid doing so if at all possible. BT routers have the SSID and WPA key on a sticker, and that is all you need to get going.
