Missing, probably deleted, the wireless network icon

Okay, I know I'm stupid. But I think a long time I could have deleted the wireless network icon. I have a desktop computer and I am connected to my modem with my ethernet cable. However, I just got a Roku Netflix player and need to have a wireless network. My modem has a wireless function, but I need this thing to wireless network icon who put in place.

I checked the forums and they tell everyone to go to Device Manager and uninstall something, then restart your computer.  When I go there my options for uninstall are Intel Pro/100 VE Network Connection and network controller that has a yellow circle with and exclamation mark inside. I'm pretty sure is my wireless card, I had installed but no longer uses.

So, how can I uninstall? Or is this not what I need to do?

Please help me! Thank you!!!

    I have a Satellite Pro A200 and Tuesday night I was able to connect to a wireless network. I received an update, rebooted and now it doesn t seem to work.

    I can see the wireless networks available via the Toshiba Radar but cannot connect to my usual wireless network.
    Also, the wireless network icon disappeared from my system tray and if I go to Control Panel/network connections, I can't even view available networks because there is no option to do so.

  • Problems connecting to the internet using the wireless network connection

    I can't connect to the internet using my wireless network connection. I had made the diagnosis and he stated that "the DHCP is not enabled for the wireless network connection. I had checked the DHCP, but it has been activated!... Someone would give any suggestion for me to solve the problem?

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type services.msc and press enter . Search The Client DHCP and check if it is enabled or disabled. If disabled then turn it on and see if the problem still persists or not.

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type cmd , and press enter . At the command prompt, type ipconfig/all and press ENTER. Now, check the IP address, default gateway, DNS etc. If you find all the information is correct, but you cannot yet access the Internet so if you connect the wireless network is secure or not. To determine the glance to the wireless network icon in the taskbar, then click on it. It will show you the available wireless networks. If there is a "yellow shield" present on the network icon, the network is not guaranteed, if there is no "yellow shield" does while the network is secure. In a secure network, you might have a "network security key. In this case try to disable the 'Network security key' option for this network. To do this:

    Open Control Panel , click network and Internet , click network and sharing Center , click manage wireless networks on the left.

    In the list select the wireless network and do a right click, select Properties, Security disable tab all options that is, in security type do not select no authentication (Open) and to the type of encryption , select none .

    For more information click here and see how you can determine whether a network is secure or not.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/how-do-I-know-if-a-wireless-network-is-secure

    If the problem still persists, then check your firewall settings and make sure that the firewall is not blocking your Internet connection. Some software Antivirus has a built-in firewall and they block by default all unknown connection to the tightening of security.

    Try to restore Windows Firewall default settings. Open Control Panel click on network and Internet , click system and security , click Windows Firewall , click default settings .

    Hope this will help. Thank you.

  • on the wireless network connection icon.

    Basically, I had a new router and discovered that the wireless connection icon was missing.  I checked the network connection and I only had the local connection box.  I opened my laptop and my phone was always ok.  So what can I do to recover my wireless connection?

    Help, please!

    Your laptop has a switch that turns on and off the wireless network card?

  • The "Wireless networks" tab is missing

    I'm trying to troublshoot a wireless connection:

    Windows Wireless Auto Configuration is enabled and running, but the "Wireless networks" tab is missing from the wireless network connection properties window.

    Any ideas on how to restore this tab?

    The radio works and shows a TX/RX connection but the router will not assign an IP address.

    Windows XP SP3 laptop ThinkPad T30.

    I had the same problem - reinstalled windows, updated with service pack 3 and wireless tab was not visible. I couldn't view wireless networks. WZC has been launched and running. I tried several suggestions on different threads, but none seemed to help.

    Finally, this helped:

    Click on "View available networks" and then 'change advanced settings '.

    Under "Wireless network connection properties", click the "Advanced" tab

    At the bottom of the Advanced window, I had a link to the installation network connections (I am not able to find it now - so don't know the exact name) and click on it. He took me through a series of steps where I clicked next/ok. Finally, after finishing, the wireless networks tab is appeared! I don't know why!

  • Wireless networks icon disappeared in network connections

    I ran a software malware recommended by my administrator (Verizon) internet agent after a long period of trouble connecting to the wireless router. After telling it to remove the files mentioned, I'll be back to see the wireless icon is missing under network connections in the Control Panel.No idea what happened to her. Now, I can not access the router somehow. What can I return this icon of wireless networks. ?

    I do not think that you do not forget the files that you have deleted or 'malware software' you used?

    I would like to start by uninstalling and reinstalling your wireless adapter.

    If you have an external wifi adapter, go to the manufacturer Web site and download the latest driver for it.

    If you have an internal wifi adaptor (probably in laptops), go to the computer manufacturer's website and download the latest driver for your wireless card.  Most computer manufacturers provide a link for the correct driver after you identify the specific model of your computer (in the case of Dell, use the "Service Tag").

    Save the driver a place that you will be able to find (on a USB flash drive if you have used another computer)

    Open the Device Manager (start > run > devmgmt.msc > OK)
    Expand the "Network adapters" category by clicking on the +.
    Right-click on the entry of your wireless adapter and choose uninstall.
    OK, go out of your way and restart.

    If the Add New Hardware Wizard does not open when Windows reboots and detects the device, go back to Device Manager, right click on the entry of the wifi adapter and select Update driver
    On the Hardware Update Wizard screen, don't let it connect to Windows Update, but select "Install from a list or specific location."
    Click 'Search for the best driver' and also 'include this location '.  Click on the "Browse" button and navigate to the folder where you saved the downloaded driver (unpacked already, if you downloaded in compressed form).  Make sure you select the subfolder WinXP (or a similar name).
    Click next and the adapter must install.

    Assuming that the above results in an icon for your adapter in network connections wireless, there is more to do.

    Right click on the network connections icon, then select Properties.

    Make sure that shows the 'General tab '.
    In the box under "this connection uses the following items", you should have 4 entries:
    Microsoft Networks client {needed}
    {Required} (TCP/IP) Internet Protocol
    Sharing files and printers for Microsoft Networks {necessary if you want to be able to share files and printers}
    {Optional, but usually present} QoS Packet Scheduler

    If these elements are not in the list, make sure, using the install and following dialogs.

    In the wireless network properties dialog boxes, click the tab 'wireless networks '.
    Make sure the box to "use Windows to configure my wireless" is checked unless you have the utility of the manufacturer do this work.
    OK your way out

  • Strangest thing: iPhones can't see the wireless network. Why not?

    Suddenly, an iPhone 5 and an iPhone 6 were not connected to the home network. I thought that the wireless router was to have a hiccup. Reset it and still no. Control a connected computer and internet. Thought that it was a wireless problem, but check the settings (I don't mess with) and they are fine. BUT, I realized my iPad is always connected to the network. IPhones don't even see the wireless network. SSID always broadcast on. I tried to enter the SSID and password manually, but iPhones say that the network does not exist. It's the strangest thing. What would make the invisible network for phones all of a sudden? Both phones are differnet OS running. One is the latest version, probably the previous version. It's a FiOS Actiontec router/router wireless. Everyone has heard of such a thing? I do not understand how it is possible...

    Try this on an iPhone. No matter which even with other iOS.

    Tap settings > general > reset > reset network settings

    You will need to enter the password for Wi - Fi.

  • ProBook 4520 s - exchange of the wireless network card

    Hello everyone.

    I think the exchange of the wireless network card in my Probook 4520 s, due to the low flow.
    So I searched for a while a 5 Ghz supporting the card and found out that I am only able to get in the "white" cards list working. Then I looked at this page:

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?lang=en & CC = US & objectid = c02487851 & jumpi...

    These cards can be any, that have been used in 4520 s. Mine (according to the Device Manager) is the Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n. This thing only supports 2.4 Ghz. Now, I looked at the list for a 5 Ghz supporting the card. I think that the 802.11A/B/G/N WLAN Intel HMC 572520-001 minicards can operate on 5 Ghz, because I read, that A appears only with maps of 2.4/5 Ghz. I read too, that maps of 2.4 / 5 GHz have 3 antennas, but on this card I only the slots for 2. Is this good? And this card would go into my 4520 s?

    Greetings,

    Colony

    Hi, colony:

    You are right about your statement about the cards being described as A/B/G/N dual-band.

    The best thing to do is look at Chapter 3 of your service manual.

    You can only order one of the cards listed as supported and it MUST have the HP reference on it or it won't work.

    I see only two possibilities for you...

    The 6200 Intel and Broadcom 4322.  Make sure you also get the part # that corresponds to what country you live.

    If your current Broadcom card has integrated Bluetooth, you will lose your Bluetooth capability if you order an integrated HP bluetooth module and probably the cable too.

    None of the dual-band cards have embedded bluetooth.

    Link to the service manual.

    http://bizsupport1.Austin.HP.com/BC/docs/support/SupportManual/c02439213/c02439213.PDF

    Then, you can order a card on the link below.

    If you do not live in the United States, you can change your country at the top of the page to yours.

  • HP Laserjet 200 M276 Color MFP: HP Laserjer 200 color than MFP M276 found on the wireless network

    Printer is connected to the wireless network, but cannot be seen by the computers on this network.

    The printer has been installed on my home network for 6 months and works well.  Now it is found on the network.  Power cycle the printer, and he started to work for one night.

    The day after the printer is found on the network by PC, running Windows or Mac 8.1 on the network (under Leopard through Yosemite.

    Reset printer settings by default, in the wireless network data and verified that it is on the network (wireless diagnostics confirm the network name, config, port and switch Diagnostics).  Still cannot be found on the wireless network.  I know that it is on the network, because it can access internet functions.

    Repeated configuration via USB for settings wireless program.  Receive error message indicating the wireless settings have been communicated successfully to the printer, but the printer is not found on the wireless network.

    Not cool.  Looks like I have yet another broken HP printer.  I don't know the process.  I called the warranty and they are sending me a refurb printer.

    Returned to the HP after 10 years.  Looks like it was a mistake.

    Hello

    Try restarting your router by unpluggin power for a while, let him 3 minutes to start and restart the printer.

    Click the icon on the printer wireless - what is the listed IP address?

    Can happen that the intellectual property of the Explorer of your computer?

    You can see any difference after the reboot of the router?

    Hello @fairgame,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support! The forums are a great place where you can find solutions for your problems, with the help of the community!

    I understand that you have a problem with the WiFi and wanted to help you!

    First of all, try to review the next steps, offered by community member @Great-Christine-Tree:

    First of all, we have a step by step guide to guide you through the process of diagnosis here:

    HP PC - troubleshooting Internet and wireless network

    A second option is to try the following steps:
    Powercycle the network:
    1. turn off your laptop.
    2. unplug the power to your router.
    3. disconnect the power to your modem.
    4. wait at least 45 seconds.
    5 reconnect the modem and wait for it to come back online.
    6 plug in the router and wait for it to come back online.
    7. turn on your laptop and test your connection.

    Turn off the power to the adapter:
    1. open Device Manager. (Win Key + R > type devmgmt.msc > OK)
    2. expand the network adapters.
    3. right click on the Ethernet adapter / wireless, and then click Properties.
    4. click on the power management tab.
    5 remove the check mark next to allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
    6. click on OK.
    7 test cycle.

    Reset the TCP/IP settings on your PC:
    1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
    2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
    3. in the window that opens type "netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt" without the quotes and press ENTER.
    4 restart your PC and test.

    It can also help to reset the winsock catalog:
    1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
    2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
    3. in the window that opens type "netsh winsock reset" without the quotes, and then press ENTER.
    4 restart your PC and test.

    Reinstall the NIC drivers:
    1. download the drivers from here , but do not run them again.
    2. go to your Start menu/screen and type Device Manager.
    3. expand network adapters.
    4. right click on the wireless adapter and choose uninstall.
    5 install the drivers downloaded in step 1.
    6. restart your PC and test.

    Test an ethernet connection:
    Explicit. Test if the problem persists on a wired connection to the adapter hardware troubleshooting wireless can be directed to the appropriate areas.

    Test another connection:
    Many people excluded their home network as a problem if another device working on the same network. Networking is not as simple as that. Each device interacts differently with your router or modem and it is impossible to exclude the settings for this device until the laptop has been tested on another network.

    If these steps do not resolve the problem, try this document published by Microsoft for network management issues: wired and wireless network problems. You can change the operating system with the drop-down list in the upper right of the document.

    Please let me know if this information helps you solve the problem by marking this message as 'accept as Solution', this will help others easily find the information they seek.  In addition, by clicking on the Thumbs up below is a great way to say thank you!

  • Unable to connect to the wireless network

    I have a Pavilion DV2000. I am running Vista 32 bit. Used to connect to my home wireless network, it stopped.  I have another computer that still works with the wireless network, so I guess that the wireless network is OK.

    When I look at the HP wireless assistant, it shows the conections of bluetooth, but does not show the wifi connection (as it does not exist).

    When I click on the network icon in the tool bar it ask to search for wireless networks, it says that there is not.

    When I look at the list of drivers for network devices there is no wifi driver.  I installed the driver broadcom on the site of HP rebooted and I still don't see the driver and the PC cannot yet see the wireless network.

    I looked at the list of hardware in Windows system information utility and it shows the Broadcom device, but it shows the address MAC is not available and there is no memory listed address.

    Does anyone have suggestions for a next step?  Is this a problem with the hardware with the broadcom device?  Is it possible to test?

    I found the solution to a different thread.  Reach:
