| | Re: Cant find any networks using wirless Is it telling you there are no networks in the area? Have you double checked the physical wireless power switch (and any software power switch)? Do you have any other wireless software installed? --- Jeffrey Randow jeffreycentex@xxxxxx Windows Networking MVP 2001-2006 http://www.networkblog.net On Mon, 12 Nov 2007 10:38:04 -0800, aldo30 <aldo30@xxxxxx> wrote: Quote: >I have reinstalled drivers used restore points there is networks my other >laptop finds them ok. >I am going mad it says everything is fine. >Can any one help please :-( |

| | Re: Cant find any networks using wirless No. I mean't is it it telling you: "No Wireless Network in Range" or is it some other type of error? Also, you might want to double check the power switch for wireless. I have never seen a laptop that doesn't have one anywhere. Do you see the wireless adapter in Device Manager (right click on Computer and select Manage). --- Jeffrey Randow jeffreycentex@xxxxxx Windows Networking MVP 2001-2006 http://www.networkblog.net On Tue, 13 Nov 2007 04:07:01 -0800, aldo30 <aldo30@xxxxxx> wrote: Quote: >There is a network mate the laptop has not got a switch an it says it is on >in windows. > >"Jeffrey Randow" wrote: > Quote: >> Is it telling you there are no networks in the area?

Note that most (but not all) laptop internal wireless cards can be replaced. --- Jeffrey Randow jeffreycentex@xxxxxx Windows Networking MVP 2001-2006 http://www.networkblog.net On Thu, 15 Nov 2007 05:25:01 -0800, aldo30 <aldo30@xxxxxx> wrote: Quote: > >TRENDNET TEW-421PC PCMCIA Card WiFi 54 Mb compatible with router. and it >works ok now!!!! >It looks like the internal wifi has packed in. >buying this PCMCIA was the cheapest fix buy a mile. > >"Jeffrey Randow" wrote: > Quote: >> No. I mean't is it it telling you: >> >> "No Wireless Network in Range" >> >> or is it some other type of error? >> >> Also, you might want to double check the power switch for wireless.
