Computer for the connectiion network settings

I have a problem with my laptop to connect to the internet. When I go to connect to a network, my home network have a red X on it and the message says that "settings saved on the computer for the network do not match the requirements of the network. I think that someone clicked on something here while trying to connect to a network. How can I fix it? Thank you

Hello NETTE101002,

To add to what Al Jarvi said, I suggest that you turn off any wireless security feature. Please, click on start-> Control Panel, double-click network connections, right-click on the wireless adapter and select Properties. From there choose wireless networks, click the name of your wireless network and choose Properties. Under network authentication, select open to disable wireless security. Please try to connect.

If the problem persists, I suggest that you remove the connection and re-create the wireless network connections. The following Web site can help you on the creation of the wireless connection.

Here is an article that will give you steps on how to create a network connection:

Alternatively, you can try to reset the settings of the default router. You must contact the manufacturer of the router to do this.
