Windows Vista Premium Error 8024402C
Hi, I am pulling my hair out. I have disabled all virus software, turned off
firewall and carried out the fix suggested by Microsoft in IE of automatic
settings but windows update still brings back this error.

Does anyone have any ideas? The net works fine otherwise through my adsl
router.

Re: Windows Vista Premium Error 8024402C
Windows version is...?

If you bypass the router and connect directly to the ADSL modem, does the
behavior persist?

Re: Windows Vista Premium Error 8024402C
Hi, it is a fresh instal of Vista Premium that was activated over the phone.

I have a netcomm NB54PLUSW. I have connected it via USB with no luck. Also
connected directly with ethernet. Failed on Wireless also.

Not sure what is wrong. Hope this helps.

If connected directly to the Internet or to a home network -

Open Internet Explorer and click the Tools menu, select Internet Options, click the
Connections tab and now click LAN settings.

Under Automatic configuration, select the Automatically detect settings check box, and
then click OK.

Re: Windows Vista Premium Error 8024402C
For your Wireless Router - in the security tab, make sure you aren't blocking AcitveX
Check the manual that came with the netcomm and make sure that the inbuilt firewall isn't
blocking WU.

Re: Windows Vista Premium Error 8024402C
At least temporarily, change the dns servers

try openDNS
https://www.opendns.com/start

follow the instructions for your connection (router or PC)

Now try it--does it make a difference?

I find this is sometimes a mis-configured DNS server by your ISP

Re: Windows Vista Premium Error 8024402C

To fix this problem with updates.

go to Internet Explorer, Right click, Properties..select Lan settings,

check box for " Automatically detect settings", click OK 2 times...
finished.
Check again for updates . Should pull them successfully.
