  Hello

  According to HP Partsurfer, your lapotp came with Atheros AR9565 802.11bgn 1 x 1 WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0 adapter combination WLAN. Also, your laptop came with FreeDos and I guess currently installed Windows 8 64 bit OS, I am correct?

  The Support page for your machine, doesn't show that the Realtek RTL8188EE 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Driver for Windows 8.

  Please download, save & install the Dirver and restart the system, check if the wireless works.

• ConfigFree: windows pop up message: sellers application is controlling the wireless network adapter

  Hello

  When I draw a line from nearby wireless networks (with or without WEP security) to the laptop in the middle icon,
  a popup message with the text: the provider application is controlling the wireless card.
  Does anyone know what this message or where I can get the answer to this question?

  After clicking on it you may see far (only the 'ok' button is available), the connecting line with the laptop wireless network disconnects after
  a few seconds.

  Thanks a lot for helping me...

  Hello

  In my opinion this message appears because a 3rd WLan utility configures and controls the WiFi connection!
  There are different possibilities:
  The laptop uses the Intel wireless network adapter and the Intel Proset utility configures the WLan
  Or
  The laptop uses the Atheros WLan card and Atheros Client utility configures the WLan
  Or
  The windows have the option has been enabled and do this job.

  In this case ConfigFree application cannot configure and control the WiFi connection!

• Operating system is unable to find the wireless network adapter

  I have recently reinstalled Windows 7 on my HP Pavilion Elite on a new hard drive.

  Since the installation, Windows is not able to recognize the NIC wireless on my machine. I imagine that there are drivers somewhere on the recovery discs that I bought out of HP, but those who stick me in a boot loop and aren't really good for nothing.

  I opened the computer case and didn't see any wireless network adapter card (two cards are the video card and the expansion USB3 card), so I guess that means it is integrated. Who is?

  in any case, long story short, I want that my PC for wireless internet, as it did before my other hard drive has failed, but the recovery discs that I bought last week off the coast of HP do not work so I do not know what to do next. Is this a driver problem?

  For what it's worth, I downloaded a bunch of the "drivers" section wireless network adapters and went through them until I found one that worked.

  Problem solved.

• Satellite A100-529: How can I enable the wireless network adapter

  Hi all!

  I'm new here, but I want to know how can I activate the wireless network device. On my Toshiba Satellite A100-529 keyboard is a Fn key that must be pressed with the F8 key to turn on the wireless network device. I did, but it does not work.

  What can I do to turn on my wireless device?
  Thank you!

  You are right. The FN + F8 key combination should be used to switch to the WLan card.

  But look, man. Have you checked if your laptop supports wireless network card?
  I think it does not support the minPCI wireless network card and the card does not exist!

  That's why the WLan card cannot be activated :) you know ;)

  About 1/2 a year ago, I would generally lose my internet connection Wireless one or twice all the hours that I was using my laptop.  I kept having to "Reset Wireless Adapter.  A roommate using a different Dell laptop (not sure what model) had no problems with dropouts.  I lived with the problem b/c I mainly use my office.  Now, my office is having the same problem.

• I don't have an icon of the wireless network adapter in the settings of my card.

  I have a laptop but I have no any wireless network settings icon in my "change adapter settings". For more convenience, I put the screenshot here. What can I do for this problem? Please help me.

  

  Windows in not aware of an installation wireless installed in your computer.  Cause most likely this is the lack of the suitable driver for your specific hardware.

  Check Device Manager and see if it is listed there with a yellow exclamation point.  If this is the case, Windows can see it but it has nothing to do with it, no software device driver.

  Your single source for drivers should be the web site of the manufacturer of your computer.  Go ahead, find your model, then the driver you need.  In many cases these sites more than offer pilot and you may have to do some testing before finding which is the one you need.

  Hey Kramer,

  Are you sure that you have installed the right driver WLAN? As far as I know that Toshiba laptops are delivered with various wireless network cards. The Toshiba page also shows Atheros WLAN drivers then perhaps you have an Atheros card?

  In addition I would try reinstalling Windows using Toshiba recovery disc. There are all the drivers and tools pre-installed.

  Hello
   
  I recently reinstalled Windows Vista on my Dell Studio 1535. I put everything back on and I went to connect to my internet connection, and in the box "Connect to a network", he says "Windows cannot find any network." So I clicked on diagnose why Windows cannot find any network, and he tells me "this computer does not have an installed and configured wireless network card.

  I don't know what to do. I have a cd you put in after having reinstalled Vista for my laptop and it say the PILOTS AND of UTILITIES. When I set and run the cd, it brings up a bunch of stuff I don't know what to do.

  Please I really need help with that. If you need to know any information on the CD or my computer, I will gladly answer.

  Thank you.

  Install the drivers on the CD, or contact Dell as to what you need to install from the CD:

• Impossible to install the wireless network adapter TP-Link on Windows XP Pro error "insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service"

  Hello

  OT: I can not install my wireless adapter TP-Link on PC under Windows XP Pro. I continue to receive messages from "insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service" after each reinstallation
  I had this problem since I moved into my new house two weeks ago. To my old place, my pc is connected to my router via a network cable, so everything was fine and dandy. However, to my new place, with a network cable is just not possible, so I use a usb wireless adapter to connect. I bought a TP-Link Wireless N USB Adapter (model TL-WN727N) and I can not installed.  First, I installed the software using the CD-ROM of resources which is come with the product then connected the adapter wireless on my usb port at the back of the pc. It detects the device very well, but when he wants to install the driver of this message displays "an error occurred during the installation of the device. Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service". When I opened my device manager, a yellow exclamation mark under Network - 802.11 n WLAN cards there. In this window, I tried:!. the driver update (latest driver same downloaded of the site Web of TP-Link) 2. Disable the device (nothing happens) and 3. Uninstall (which I just can't because another message "failed to uninstall the device. The device may be required to start the computer"is displayed). All three failed to install my wireless card. I am out of resources here, so any help is greatly appreciated.

• Cannot enable the wireless network adapter

  Hi all

  I have an old Dell Inspiron 1564 of 5 months with a Wireless 1397 WLAN Dell card. I had a few difficulties to connect to my wireless router, and as a last attempt to make it work, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver for my wireless card, using a new download of the latest version from the Dell support site.

  The driver seems to install fine and when I look at the card wireless in the Device Manager, it is enabled, but in "control configuration\reseau and Internet\Network connections" (which are accessible through the Network and Sharing Center), it is grey and says people with reduced mobility.

  When I click on activate in there, a small window opens saying "Activation", then after a few seconds, he says "Enabled" then disappears. However, the adapter remains disabled in Center of N/W & sharing and is not detected by Windows.

  I tried to reinstall the driver to install Dell drivers, as well as automatic windows driver search and no work. I also tried to do a system restore, but this does not (cannot finish on any of the restore points).

  I also spent 1.5 hours on the phone with Dell support and their final advice was to format and reinstall Windows.

  The same question is reported here and here, with no resolution apparent. Can anyone offer any advice I've already tried? Thank you!

  More details:
  -I am running Win 7 Pro.
  -Wired networking and internet connection works fine
  -J' have Zone Alarm and Avast Anti virus and I tried to disable both without success

  The same problem has been posted by other here, here, hereand here. It seems to happen with different brands of cards from NW.

  Hello

  Thanks for the reply. Actually, I got my wireless works today. The steps are, keeping in mind the stuff that I had already tried as stated in my original post:

  -Uninstalled Zone Alarm and Avast Antivirus.
  -Restarted mode without failure.
  -Uninstalled the Driver 1397 WLAN Device Manager.
  -Manager of uninstalled Dell Wireless cards Control Panel > programs.
  -Restarted in Mode safe again.
  -Reinstalled last bouquet of 1397 driver Dell (R237742.exe)
  -Rebooted in safe mode again to verify that the adapter was showing less active in Safe Mode, which it was.
  -Restarted normally to find the list is activated.

  Now I'm right back to where I was before, not being able to connect to my router, but I do not suspect my computer or my card wireless for the moment because I have four wireless devices in the House (this new Dell laptop, another 4 years Dell laptop, an 8 - month, Sony VAIO and a 6 - month old iPhone 3 g). All of these devices, the one that connects to my router is the Sony, so I think I have as well the router problems. I'll probably start another thread on the subject, just to keep this central thread.

  So to summarize, for anyone having the issue where your wireless card is showing disabled in Network Center and share and right click Activate this doesn't even after reinstalling the drivers the most recent, I would recommend to explore two options:
  -Disabling or uninstalling Antivirus software or firewall
  -Uninstall and reinstall the drivers Safe Mode Wireless
  If you are interested in reducing the problem a little, I recommend you to try these separately, probably the SafeMode option first.

• T8200: Where physical access to the wireless network adapter

  Hello

  I bought a Tecra 8200. The internal WLAN card does not work. When I activate it with the button on the front of the laptop, nothing happens.
  The card is not recognized by WinXP-> means that it does not appear in Device Manager. It seems that the card is not "under tension".
  However, can someone explain to me how to open Notepad to check if the wiring is correct? I removed all the screws at the bottom of the case, but the keyboard is always aligned with the rest of the laptop, so I can't open it completely.

  Thank you.
