Newb with a problem of wireless internet...

Hi all...

All of a sudden my son of 019923U lenovo thinkpad edge cannot find wireless networks.

Everyone in the House is on the fine wireless... but its never find not all networks at all.

Internet works on the wired very well.

Have updated the drivers from here, but don't really know what I'm doing.

There is a problem in "other devices" in Device Manager "network controller" and just in this

'unknown device' both ' yellow! Posted by them.

Anyone have any ideas? It is only 8 so don't know if it has caught a virus or deleted something or what?

The 'fn' key does not work with the function keys.

I've been on this forum for hours trying to find something but don't know what I'd do.

Thanks for any help!

  • Help with a problem of Wireless Desktop 800, thank you.

    I have a desktop wireless 800, recently, the keyboard is showing strange behavior as follows;
    1. the left arrow button weighs almost all the time, especially when you try to select text (for example, in word) using Ctrl + Shift + arrow to the left.
    2. the green control led lights when the keyboard is touched against the work surface or slightly harder than usual key and the keyboard stops responding for a few seconds until the light turns off.

    Seriously, I would not have taken the trouble you with this kind of a questions unless it is very annoying because all my work is related to Microsoft word and excel, and I really wanted the entire web for a sufficient answer, but in vain.

  • Need help with the wireless internet Power Book G4

    Hi-I recently inherited a Power Book G4.  I have problems to connect to wireless internet.  According to the Profiler systems, it has an AirPort Extreme card, but there is no icon on the screen wireless.  Advice to connect would be appreciated!

    Thank you-

    Stephanie

    The icon in the menu bar can be hidden or displayed.  The setting is the system network preferences pane.  Where it says display, select AirPort.  There is a checkbox for the State of AirPort show the menu bar.  Since the AirPort icon in the menu bar, you can select the a local wireless network to join.

    This pane of system preferences, you can use the more specific configuration settings, although the default settings work often unless you use special parameters with your wireless router.

    AirPort Extreme Card maybe for 802.11b and gand not n.  If your wireless network is configured for 802.11n only, you will need to change this setting to allow to 802.11 g (on the wireless router).

    Hello

    You are the very welcome.

    I bought an Actiontec Powerline adapter. It was about 50,00 USD.

    Everything will work. Dear sound usually gives a higher flow.

    You don't have to uninstall the card wireless on your PC.

    Really easy to implement. Plug an adapter into the wall socket close to router. The provided plug ethernet cable into the port on the router and the port on the wall adapter. Repeat the process by plugging it to the wall adapter near your PC. Connect the ethernet cable supplied to the wall jack and the ethernet port on the PC.

    You're good to go.

  • Compaq Presario CQ56 - :(wireless Internet problem

    Hey everybody,

    So I just joined here to see if anyone can help with my problem, because frankly, I'm out of options now about two weeks asking friends and colleagues and searching the Internet for answers to similar problems. I tried twice with the information I found on this site for quite some time and it does not work for me!

    In any case, I have a HP Compaq Presario CQ56 laptop. It has been implemented correctly when I bought it, everything worked perfectly. I managed to catch a virus that prevented me from even turn on my computer (which is strange, because I'm not a fool with computers, and I know what not to do/download sites to visit), so I had to restart my computer to stock, I used my Windows 7 disc, partitions formatted and installed windows again.

    Now, for some reason it doesn't connects wireless Internet. It connects when I have an ethernet cable connected, but it is not all networks, as shown in this screenshot:

    (And also here's a cute Bunny for your pleasure)

    So you see my problem it is very frustrating. I don't know what is the cause, but I guess it must be a driver problem? Which is why I write here, if this is indeed in the wrong section, please accept my apologies.

    Here is an another screenshots that can help, just in case:

    If someone could shed some light on the problem for me, or even to resolve, I'd be very grateful it is extremely annoying. As I said, it works fine when I have my laptop connected to the internet, when I'm in College, but when I come on a weekend, I can't put my laptop, because I only WiFi at home.

    Thanks for reading

    Hayley R

    You are the very welcome, Hayley.

    The problem is that the needs of the wireless (network controller) one adapter driver installed and here is the link for the driver you need.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-107849-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en

    Once you install the driver above, the wireless should work just fine.

  • WRT160Nv3 problem with 3rd party applications of internet Apple & Dropbox

    Here's my situation, had a WRT54G Router for several years, he kept dropping my internet connection and after several updates of the firmware, I decided to move to the WRT160N. These two works of apple computers at lightning fast speed, same xbox 360 which is appoximatly 40 ft, in a basement works fast, netflix streaming that is built into my blu ray player works as well. The problem I have with Itunes and Dropbox, both use the internet to connect, but every time that I try to connect I get internet connection errors. My macbook pro supports a/b/g/n wireless, so I'm not sure of what could be the issue. I have the latest version of Itunes as dropbox.

    Also, I checked my router settings, he is currently in mixed mode. Do you think I would need to change to mixed mode B - G, it seems kind of silly to have a N Router and only being able to use G.  Other experiences with this problem?

    Thanks, I was able to solve this problem by configuring the proxies on my internal airport. It turns out that I had information specific web proxies, once I removed them and not the box of proxie, everything was back to normal. Now, without doubt, I realized that my old router probably would have worked very well, I didn't realize this in the first place.

    I've had my computer for almost three years now and during that time, most of the parties on this matter have been replaced.

    More recently, I got both my hard drive and my card wireless replaced due to different problems and now it has developed recently that I can not connect to wireless internet. I live with my best friend, who also has a Dell laptop and I myself own an Acer Netbook and an iPhone, both of which successfully connect to wireless internet. It seems that my system that is having this problem.

    I spoke with representatives of Dell's Support more + 5 times and nothing has solved this problem. They simply tell me it's a software problem and I have to buy something System Repair for $100 + (even after having spend $600 on a warranty, which apparently doesn't cover that material).

    Obviously, I can connect to via an ethernet/cable connection, but not wireless. It's not that the connection is not displayed, it shows and said it connects, but I only have 'Local' go. This isn't the first problem I've had with my wireless; I got other errors such as: "the ability of this network adapter does not match the requirements of this network" or the connection will show, but that their will to be greyed out as if I don't get any kind of connectivity.

    If there is more information that I can give to make this easier to understand, please let me know. I'll post the Windows IP Configuration if necessary to help solve this problem.

    Hello

    Since the update of the driver did not work I would return the system back to factory
    as suggested in my response above. After the revision updated the WiFi driver again. If this
    does not work then it's material. If necessary, you can disable the built-in WiFi and
    use a device of WiFi add-on.

    I hope this helps.

    Hi Tinkerbellfancolorado,

    1. When is this last work fine?
    2. Do you receive an error message or error codes?
