App Makes Live Calls To Our Network Over Wireless Connection
Nov 3, 2008
I am currently improving an existing handheld application, this app makes live calls to our network over the wireless connection, if the wireless connection is not established I am displaying a holding screen to the user, this screen rechecks connection every three seconds.I want to put a button on this screen that closes down the application if the user does not want to wait any longer. At the moment I am using the application.exit command, however it continues to finish the first original thread (i.e. trying to process the dataset) before actually closing the application, I am looking for a way to kill the application there and then!

I am using the code below to test whether the user is connected using either a wireless or LAN connection. i.e. that the cable is plugged in, or the wireless is switch off. The code works fine for this. However, if you can spot any potential problems with this or you know of a better way I would be interested to learn more.

I am attempting to write a program that will disable the Local Area Connection while leaving the Wireless connection enabled. My company is using net-books in our stores to demo air-cards and we need to keep them off of the LAN. I'm new to VB and VB.net, and it's been a while since I did any type of programming. I've gathered some code that others have posted in forums and tutorials and I'm working through a tutorial book, but I finally believe that I am stuck.

I'd like to build a program which shares files between two computers. My method for doing that is setting up a home network, basically, on one computer, put a file there, and share that file on the network. The other computer would then connect to the network (through my application) and find the file and read it. I know this is very long. I would just like you to help me start up.How do I create a wireless network ENTIRELY THROUGH VB during the initial setup of the application? I don't want the user to deal with creating the network himself.

My issue, however, is connecting to the wireless laptops as well.

I need to grab a list of all networked computers, and I definitely include systems on the wireless
network in that list. I'm just not sure how to approach this. Being able to enumerate through a
'tree' of all networks and systems available would be a major plus.

I have built a client-server VB.net inventory application for our company which connects to our Server machine running on Windows XP. We have 6 client machines running also on Windows XP that connects to the Server's database. Now, my problem is, "How do i connect a client machine running on Windows Vista to our Server running on Windows XP wirelessly?"
- Is there something I have to alter on the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration?
-Or do I have to change the 'Connection String' on my software application so as to properly connect to the Server from a Vista mahine? If then, how?
This is the error its throwing:"An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 53)"

A new client has recently asked me to develop a Windows service that will monitor whether or not his server has internet connectivity. The service should log when the connection goes down to Local Only and back up to Internet Access as shown in Network and Sharing Center.
My original idea was to have the service ping a website like google every 5 minutes or so, but I don't know how to retrieve the results of the ping, so I then thought I could code a WebBrowser control into it and write the log entries based on the results of connection attempts from that.
This also seems like a rather impractical idea though, so can anyone suggest the best way to go about this?

What the Win32 API is? I have looked around but no where really outlines what it is. Is it basically a set of procedures, outlined by Microsoft for programmers in order to get services from the operating system? In essence is it the equivalent to making system calls abd and library calls in UNIX? And yes I now Windows makes library calls too.

I have created a VStudio app. and I am encountering a problem when I use it. When I have filled out the form and have clicked submit, I get the error:
'''''''''Network connection does not exist''''''''
But, the connection does exist and I have checked it by running the link in vb, in my computer and it works perfectly. What else could possibly bring back this error???

This is the work of one responder for the most part, and is not indicative of the quality of most of the posts.But you can judge that for yourself.
If you are writing a program that is used to monitor the status of your network, then this thread may not be of interest.
If you are an application programmer that uses network resources to accomplish your goal, i.e. you are using SMTP, FTP, HTTP, NNTP, NTP etc., and you think that you need to check for a connection first, then read on.Follow up to this.Before getting all geeky let's take a little detour...
Five days a week I get up, eat breakfast, check my email, forums, etc., take a shower, get dressed, and then drive to school.Many of you probably have a similar routine.What is interesting about that is not what we do, but what we dont do,because of our expectations and experience.Here is what I dont do.
I dont stick my finger in the electrical socket to see if there is electricity for the coffee maker and toaster.I dont fire up the command prompt and ping some host on the internet to see if I have connectivity.I dont check the battery, tires, water level, clutch fluid level, washer fluid level, etc.,before I drive off.
All of that is based on expectation and experience.So why would you write an application that pings the internet before it did something (SMTP, FTP, HTTP, NNTP, NTP etc)???? Is your experience or expectation that the network will be down?To illustrate and hopefully convince you that, like Oblio, it is pointless, create a new form with three buttons. In the following examples I use a WebRequest / WebResponse as my 'Something'.Here is what some think is a good approach, the classic ping-then-do, what I think you shouldn't do.[code]....What is wrong with this code is that all of the network IO is being done without a Try / Catch block.

I have a problem when trying to detect the computers network connection status.
Here is the code I have used:
Dim IsAvalible As String = My.Computer.Network.IsAvailable
If IsAvalible = True Then Label1.Text = "Connected" Else <code>
<code>If IsAvalible = False Then</code> I <code>
Label1.Text = "Disconnected"</code></code>
End If [/ICODE] End If[/ICODE]
But for some even when the network is disconnected or the computers wifi is turned on I still get the result of "Connected". I think there something wrong with the code.

I can't see anything in the method list that lets you know when a connection drops (and since it's constantly checking, it seems that could have been in there, to raise a flag when it can't find the connection anymore...no?). Is there a way to know if the network connection drops? Is there a way to reconnect it? Is it just a matter of turning EnableRaisingEvents() off and back on to re-establish the link to the network share?

I have a USB 3G dongle from Orange which is like a dialup connection, rather than a wireless connection.
Is there anyway in vb.net to control this connection? So disconnect is and recconnect it etc?The reason for this is automatically getting a new ip address without manually disconnecting in network connections.

I may be SOL on this but I thought I would give throw it out for possible solutions.I am writing a computer access control service tcontrol my kids' computer use. Plan on open sourcing it when I have it working. It is written in VB.Net and needs to work on XP through 7.I am running into all sorts of security and desktop access issues on Windows 7.The service needs to run as admin to execute the NetSh command to disable the network. But I cannot interact with the desktop from the service so I IPC to a UI to handle other stuff, but I still cannot detect from the service if the desktop is locked. Argghh!
