• 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

• Problems with wireless USB adapter. Icon missing "Wireless network connection".

  I recently got a laptop HD malfunction cause me to start my PC from 2004. I bought a Belkin N150 Wireless USB adapter to connect to the internet connectivity. During the installation, I do not get a "Wireless network connection" icon I am running Windows XP SP3. I installed the same USB adapter on a computer running Windows XP SP2 and it works fine. I plugged it in my desktop PC and it just doesn't work! Even with my router disconnected I should still be able to see other networks WiFi available in the range (I live in a community of apartment) as he worked on the other computer it elsewhere too. I double checked the drivers, reboot the cable modem, so that appropriate services were activated and still no dice. I have read forums and I'm almost at the point of paying MS for technical support services, but it's really just my last step before I shell out money for professional help. Notice to lovers? =)

  Hello

  Well, at this point, you should make an executive decision.

  If you think that someone will take just guilt because it's comfortable, it is not going to happen.

  If a new card that is known to work does not work, then you can try to re - install Windows.

  One of the differences between computer enthusiasts and regular users is the availability of the material. I have a set of wireless router, network cards, etc. that are known to be good.

  The components are used for the sole purpose of trying them temporarily on the troubled computers to rule out hardware problems.

• Equium A60 - no wireless network connection

  Hello world

  I have had a good look through the forums and can't find anything related to this but my apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere :-)

  I set up a wireless home network with a Windows XP desktop computer with a router and a laptop old Win98, WinXP SP2, which I can't connect and an Equium A60. I installed two different network on the A60 USB adapters, seems to be okay with all of them except that there is no "wireless network connection" listed under network connections Control Panel. Both cards work fine on two other machines, so there must be a problem with the A60. I installed an adapter and then uninstalled before trying another.

  Under control-> connections Panel Network, I can see an old broadband connection and the connection to the Local network (which is allowing me to connect to the router via Ethernet, so that the router will work), but the wireless network connection icon is not there. The driver for the USB adapter makes its appearance in Device Manager and is reported as working properly, but if it worked correctly then (I think) a wireless connection icon should appear - it happened with my other WinXP desktop.

  Any ideas of what could be the cause?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  I guess that the external WLan USB stick has been recognized one installed correctly. You said it appears in Device Manager. Are you sure that the WLAN USB key has been recognized to 101%? !!

  If the WLAN USB key is recognized correctly, check the properties of this stick. (I think you should right click and then click on properties).

  But if the stick was not recognized, you must verify the properties of the single USB ports and power safe mode.
  Choose the USB single root hubs in device, right click, properties, tab power management Manager and disable the option called allow the computer to turn off the device to save energy.

  So maybe it helps

• Connection to the local network not appearing is not in network connections

  A month or so I reinstalled Windows XP SP2 (have since updated to SP3), and ever since then the LAN connection icon does not appear in the network connections window, and even when I plug the ethernet cable it does not automatically turn on the connection to the local network. My wireless connection works perfectly well. I went to the HP website to download all the drivers and also visited if the Device Manager on my computer to make sure that all drivers are in place. Even with all the drivers, it still does not connect to the local network. Help, please!

• Area connection icon gone: no Internet connectivity

  Summary of the problem: No "Local network connection" icon in the "Network connections" folder No internet connectivity.

  I recently attempted to get on a wireless network connection, but my computer was a 169.254.x.xxx IP address each time. To try to solve this problem, I entered the network connections folder and tried "Configuration of the home network or small office." I went through the steps and tried to configure the wireless. I then rebooted.

  After the reboot, I opened my network connections folder to see that my Local network connection icon disappeared completely. When I plug a plug ethernet from my computer, the light just above the CAP does no more Flash.

  When I bring the network connections folder, I see "Wireless network connection" and "1394 connection", but none of my Local network connections that were once there. I tried a system restore and tried the steps outlined on this page, but nothing helps:
