    Vista - Cannot Enable File Sharing

    I did as it says, and bingo! My sharing is responding and my networking is back on track! You'll have to do the same for other things, not just file sharing. This fixed my 10-20 minute connection drop and it should work across vista and seven. Some new Micro$oft update may be the culprit, but; alas, i have done it!

    Meow!

    Just tried this. And unbelievably it's worked (fingers crossed) and my ethernet has yet to drop, and I've been testing it to the fullest as well (torrents+messenger+surfing at the same time). What I did was:

    Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Windows Firewall with Advanced Security > (Left Column) Inbound rules > (Right Column) New Rule > Click on 'Predefined'> Select 'Network Discovery' > Select ALL the possible options > Click Next > Make sure Allow the Connection is selected > Click Finish

    So far so good! And hopefully this will help others as well.

    I applied these settings & yes my Ethernet is not dropping connection frequently, but now its still once a day problem, better than before at least.

    Last few days of applying "levesquemarc" suggestion have now reduced the connection dropping to from frequent to rare but it still happens once a day, so its not completely gone away.

    Will try doing a clean install of build 7600 & see if that sorts out this problem or not.

    I've tried that advice and I've tried to completely disable the advanced firewall (simple firewall's disabled too), but without a solution. Yesterday night my connection's dropped at least 10 times during a simple file download (Internet Download Manager) at 700kb/s.

    Its actually not 100% solution but yes it does minimum disconnect now after applying the above steps. Once a day is still happening.

    a fix


    hey im new here but encountered the same problem as you guys. After some googling I found this thread Board Message

    and this fix which works so far perfectly

    Would like to point out I have been running nforce win7 drivers for 1 week now with no connection problems at all. Its been working great.

    I copied this from my technet forum post on the issue:

    LAN port configuration:
    Sleep on disconnect: enabled
    flow control: disabled
    interrupt moderation: disabled
    ip checksum offload: disabled
    jumbo packet: 9014 bytes (this might have no effect for you)
    ALL large send offloads: disabled
    BOTH low power: enabled
    network address: not present
    priority & vlan: priority enabled
    receive side scaling: disabled
    speed/duplex settings: auto
    ALL TCP & UDP offloads: disabled
    vlan id: 1
    ALL wake ons: enabled

    Speeds are great, can burst load lots of web sites with no connectivity problems, and works after both restart/shutdown.

    Haven't narrowed it down. It appears to happen after enabling one or multiple of the disabled settings.

    after reading


    Seems the problem has been isolated to the "Recieve Side Scaling" setting. The forum thread I mentioned above has several people mentioning that putting this single setting off, without touching any of the others, will indeed fix the problem.
