Wireless Connection and article 871122
When I open my wireless network connection, I no longer
get a list of wireless networks in range, but get the following message: Windows cannot configure this wireless connection If you have enabled another program to manage this wireless connection, use that software. If you want Windows to configure this wireless connection, start the Wireless Zero Configuration (WZC) service. For information about starting the WZC service, see article 871122 in the Microsoft Knowledge Base on the microsoft.com Web site. Previously I could view the wireless networks in range. However, after unsuccesfully loading my SBC/Yahoo DSL/wireless gateway software, I apparently changed some settings that I can't change back and no where on the MS website is there anything that discusses my particular predicament. Sure, there are articles that seem to relate but in reality don't apply. In addition, I could not find this "article 871122." Can anyone please help?!?!?! |

Wireless Connection and article 871122
Try here for Knowledgebase artice 871122:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;871122&Product=winxp Sounds like the SBC/Yahoo software may have turned off Wireless Zero Configuration service. The article 871122 gives instructions on how to turn it back on.

Thanks for helping point me to the appropriate link. The
direction the article gave for restarting my WZC worked. -----Original Message----- Try here for Knowledgebase artice 871122: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en- us;871122&Product=winxp Sounds like the SBC/Yahoo software may have turned off Wireless Zero Configuration service.
