Cannot connect or find a wireless network already in memory

I'm having some trouble connecting to the wireless network I have in my house. I already had the network wireless saved on the laptop, but now I have difficulties as well to find the network and also to connect manually. You have any ideas what I can do?

Restore point:

http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If the above does not resolve the problem:

·                         Go to the website of the manufacturer of your router > make sure you have the latest Firmware in Vista for it.

Go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/notebook > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for it last network adapters Vista drivers > download/install the.

Try without commitment TCP/IPv6:

If you still have internet connection probs, one thing to try is the separation of the TCP/IPv6 (which is done by going to network connection > right click > properties > it uncheck > OK.)

  • Cannot connect Tecra 9000 to wireless network

    Hello

    I am trying to connect my laptop Toshiba T9000 to my BT home Hub 2.0 Wireless v but a little difficulty.
    The laptop recognizes the hub, but every time I click on connect, I get the same message.

    ""Windows cannot connect to the selected network. " The network can be is no longer in range. Please refresh the list of available networks and try to connect again"

    I went through a few troubleshooting steps to resolve this problem, but always without success.
    Can I update the driver? My inclination is that this may have something to do with the laptop is not able to support WPA?

    I am not very computer but if anyone has any additional input to help me with this question then I would be very happy.

    Kind regards
    Answer by quoting

    > Can I update the driver? My inclination is that this may have something to do with the laptop is not able to support WPA?
    This may be possible

    The point is that this laptop is an oldie and the wireless network adapter appears to be old too.
    I ve no idea what WLan card you have, but you could try to connect to the WLan without use of encryption settings. Disable encryption on the router Wlan and test connectivity again. of course, this must be done only for testing purposes
    The wireless network must be always secure

    The alternative could be the use of external USB WLAN, it would be the easiest and fastest way for that to be resolved

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8610: Printer cannot connect to the new wireless network

    I got the OfficeJet Pro for a while and everything worked very well (including wireless printing from my Mac and iPad AirPrint). Yesterday, we got a new Modem Router (from Ubee). As I tried to connect the printer with the new network, I fail miserably.

    Here's what I've tried several times: on the small screen of the printer, I select: Network Setup > wireless setting > Wireless Setup wizzard. The printer seems to networks, find the network and asks me the password, I get the password (I did this several times, so no typos!). The printer then "trying to connect to the network"... then it crashes: for a very short moment, I get a blue screen with a white error code (not always the same, for example.) B3FF3802) and then the message "error in the printer, turn off the power, then press.

    I turned off the printer and turn it back on several times (incl. pulling out the power plug and restart after a while), but when I go through the steps above, but I just get the same endresult.

    I deleted the old network as I feared it might interfere with the creation of the new network. No noticeable effect.

    I printed the "results of the wireless network test," which confirms that "your HP printer is unable to connect to your wireless router. In the results of the diagnosis, he states that 'network name (SSID) was found - Fail.

    I quite understand the message that the printer detects the network and shows good SSID / network name. I thought to enter the SSID manually but can't find where I could do.

    I'd be very grateful for any suggestions on what could be the problem (I can't imagine that the printer would not work with a new router... I searched the internet and found stuff on 'Hello compatibility', but do not know which is the issue I'm facing.

  • Moved from Office Windows 7 from one room to the other and now it cannot find the wireless network

    Hello world

    I have a HP Pavilion running Windows 7.

    He was hooked through the ethernet in a single room.

    I moved it to another room where there was no inflexible access, so I relied on the use of our wireless network.

    Now, the computer will not even find the wireless network.  When I have the help, it says "no available connection."

    In the center of the network, selecting wireless has a red X to the left of the green signal bars.

    At first, I wondered if maybe the computer was in a "dead point" in our House, but I've put a laptop beside him and he found the thin wireless network.

    Any help?

    Update: I tried system restore and tried to stop/resume knowledge network locations, but to no avail.

    Here is the info on my card wireless directly from HP site:

    Original driver for the solutions of Dualband network Atheros 802.11 Wireless Module a/b/g/n.

    Hi Kelly1986,

    1. what happens when you try to connect by using wired connection?
    2. do you have security software installed on the computer?
    3. did you of recent changes on the computer?
    4. What is the error message when the service started?

    First of all, I would say that check you what happens when you connect using the wired connection.

    Check also in mode safe mode with Networking if you are able to connect to internet using wired connection.

    Steps to start in safe mode with networking
    1 restart your computer if it is running.
    2. press the F8 key after your initially on powers computer.
    3. Once you see the menu Advanced Startup Options , you can stop tapping.
    4. use the up/down arrow keys to highlight your selection.
    5. Select Safe Mode with network and pressenter.
    6. you should see loading drivers and wait please.
    7. you should then be at the Welcome screen.
    8. connect to your computer using an account with administrator privileges.

    Start your computer in safe mode
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

    Restart the computer to return to normal mode

    Disable the security software on the computer and try to start the service and check.

    Important: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    If you still cannot start the try running SFC scan service that would have a search system files corrupted on the computer and replace them.

  • Satellite A300 1QE - Windows can't find any wireless network

    Hello

    Please help me with a problem of annoing with radio.

    The story is like this:-J' I bought a laptop with Vista preinstaled... I used only once the wireless and worked very well... after a while I have reinstaled Vista, vista ultimate editing... I used 2 days the wireless and then suddenly found no more... wireless network I have reinstaled vista 2 weeks ago, and now I bought a wireless router and set a network... same problem : "Windows cannot find any wireless network"... with a laptop dell, I found 2 networks (one I created and the other a neighbor with very good signal).

    Collaborative I've tried:

    1 http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9602NC0000R01.htm - in the directory toshiba\wlan there are 3 directories: intel, atheros and realtek... following the steps, the only factor that installs is intel one... If I try to navigate to the folder Realtek can't find anything compatible... (the network lan card is realtek, so I guess that the Wlan should be the same... as also indicated in the url)

    "I have the latest drivers from the toshiba Web site
    "the wireless is a turn on"

    2. I thought that might be a vista problems, so I instaled all the vista updates available... still no work

    The next sollution I try is updating the bios, but I have no whink it is useful.

    So please help me with a sollution for my WiFi problem!

    Thank you

    Hi creativu22,

    First, you must identify the type of wireless network card before you begin to install all the drivers available. Therefore, you can also search with vendor and device ID.
    Check this box!

    If you have installed the driver successfully and your wireless network adapter is listed in the Device Manager, you must check the TCP/IP settings. Maybe you need to use static IP addresses, but it depends on your router.

    Try turning off also in Power Options Windows WLAN energy saving features!

    Hello

    Check the firewall it is maybe it has been reset.

    In general.

    Most laptops have a physical switch for the wireless card. Read the manual of the computer and make sure that the wireless adapter is on.

    Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_dm.jpg

    If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

    Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_connection_tcp.jpg

    Make sure that if there is Wireless Utility a utility vendor is not running with the native Windows wireless utility.

    Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.

    Above everything is OK and it connects to the wireless router. Log in from any computer which is, or can be connected to the router with a wire wireless, disable wireless security, make sure that the wireless streaming is enabled and try to connect with no. wireless security.

    When the work turns on the Wireless security.

    Note * people sometimes make mistakes in writing and retype the password for security.

    Another way is to copy in the menu of the router and then paste it when asked of the wireless card.

    --------------------------------------------------

    I really checked and configured every thing and it doesn't work.

    Software firewall application that is not configured to allow local traffic (between the computer and the router is also a possible problem.
    some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .
