    Vista Can't Detect Wireless Network

    Hi all,

    I have a computer expierencing problem detecting wireless network in some places. The computer can detect network with no problem in some places.

    But it cannot detect my home wireless network all of a sudden, it can before. Now I still have other XP computers which are using the wireless at home with no problem. So I am just wondering why the Vista computer suddenly cannot detect the network at home. There is no switch for wireless for the computer. It is Fuji Lifebook S Series.

    Any guidance will be appreicated.

    Hi
    Could be that by connecting to an out side Wireless some setting change so
    it does not match any more your Home setting.
    Check the Wireless configuration to make sure that it is compatible with
    your parameters and security settings.
    This page was meant for XP but the general principle applies to Vista Well.

    These two pages have specific instructions for Vista.

    BTW, Vista is not as bad as you think, the fact is that Millions of people
    are successfully using Wireless with Vista.
