Type CMD and press ENTER
Type IPCONFIG /ALL and press ENTER.

Look for lines of output like:

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes
Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes
DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 364.259.160.040
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 364.259.160.13, 364.259.160.15

especially the "DNS Servers" line.

Call the "Support Desk" of your Internet Service Provider, if that "DNS Servers" line is blank -- or even if it is non-blank -- ask the ISP what the values *SHOULD* be -- just in case your computer has been "hijacked" to point to "rogue" DNS-servers.

Fuse and relay diagrams for 2005 F250 V10 gas motor

Principles of Operation
The vehicle has 3 module communications networks:
  • controller area network (CAN)
  • international standards organization (ISO) 9141 communications network
  • universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter (UART) based protocol (UBP) communications network
The diagnostic tool connects to the communications networks through the data link connector (DLC). The DLC allows a diagnostic tool access to diagnose and test the vehicle systems of any module on the communications networks.
The CAN has an unshielded twisted pair cable, data plus circuit 1908 (WH) and data minus circuit 1909 (BK). The CAN is a communications network used for the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, the instrument cluster, powertrain control module (PCM) and the trailer brake controller communications. The CAN remains operational even with the severing of one of the CAN circuits but operates at a degraded level. Communications also continue at a degraded level if one of the CAN circuits are shorted to ground or voltage, or if some but not all termination resistors are lost.
The ISO 9141 communications network is a single circuit communications network, circuit 70 (LB/WH). The ISO 9141 communications network does not permit intermodule communication. When the diagnostic tool communicates to modules on the ISO 9141 communications network, the diagnostic tool must request all information or initiate module commands. The ISO 9141 communications network is a communications network used for the 4-wheel drive (4WD) control module, the parking aid module and the restraint control module (RCM) communications. The ISO 9141 communications network does not function if the circuit is shorted to ground or voltage. Also, if one of the modules on the ISO 9141 communications network loses power or shorts internally, communications to that module fail.
The UBP communications network is a single circuit communications network, circuit 693 (OG). The UBP communications network is a communications network used for the electronic automatic temperature control (EATC) module, the instrument cluster and the vehicle security module communications. The UBP communications network does not function if the circuit is shorted to ground or voltage. The UBP communications network is different from the ISO 9141 communications network in that it allows intermodule communication.

De ce nu pot intra pe tel pe internet

Why can not I enter the tel Internet
Internet connection and network errors can be frustrating and confusing to a casual computer user.
However, Internet Explorer provides a diagnostics tool to help identify and even repair the most common network issues.
This tool is simple to use, organized in steps, and can help get a computer back up and running quickly.

Open Internet Explorer and click on the "Tools" button in the control bar at the top of the window. From the "Tools" menu, select "Diagnose Connection Problems."
A window will appear, displaying the start page of the diagnostics tool.
Follow the instructions to determine the cause of the connection error.
The diagnostics tool will ask a series of multiple-choice questions about the connection problem you are experiencing.
Close all programs and restart the computer.
If you continue to receive an error when attempting to connect to the Internet, check that all cables and power-supply cords for the computer, modem and/or router are properly connected. Then, run the diagnostic tool again.
Call your Internet service provider's technical support phone number if you cannot resolve the error with the diagnostics tool.
The Internet Explorer diagnostics tool cannot repair or reset malfunctioning or failing hardware like modems and routers.

Failed to get camera informaiton!!

Copy this site and paste it in your web browser address bar and hit ENTER.

http://www.download32.com/webcam-diagnostics-d35065.html

to download the Camera Diagnostic Tool and run it to check out your camera and/or problem.

Be sure the camera is plugged into the USB port before running the program.

As you run the program, write down the info about the camera so you will know what model and who manufactured the camera you have
attached so you can get the proper software drivers for it.
Hope this helps. Bud

Error message on my broadcom

PXE errors (Also known as Pixie errors) occurs when the system bios setup is configured to attempt to boot to the network card (an option used in some networks to load system images)

You can boot to the system setup (F2 at Dell screen) and make sure the HDD is 1st in the boot sequence and *** if there is a setting for the network card to turn off PXE (Usually they the following options (ON, OFF, ON W/PXE, select the ON option)

If the system is failing to boot to the hard drive at all, this can be a sympton of a failing hard disk drive. You can try and confirm this by booting to the HDD diagnostic on the F12 on time boot menu or boot to the Dell Resource CD and run diags from it. If the HDD fails diagnostics, it definitely needs to be replaced. If the diags pass, it is no guarantee that the drive is good though, just an indication that no fault was found.
