Suddenly "not (wireless) networks detected.

Hi guys,.

So I was on my laptop this morning (have had and used WiFi for over a year without problem) and suddenly lost my wireless connection. I'm as Windows 7 64-bit family.  At some point, there are still about 10 connections available wireless - mine and neighbors. Suddenly, none are detected at all.
-J' turned off the Windows Firewall (only firewall I have). There is nothing.
-J' I unplugged my modem and router and reconnected them and restarted my laptop. Still no networks.
-J' checked for driver updates (everything was up-to-date).
-I can connect to my WiFi on my iPhone and on other computers in the House. So given that and all the other networks I see normally cannot be detected or the other, I think that the problem is with the computer itself.
-J' also tried a system restore, but it is on the "restoration of the system initialization" forever without actually doing anything.
-I can also connect to the internet on this laptop if I plug the cable directly into it.
Any ideas what's happening here? I searched all morning through similar topics but have not been able to solve the problem. Thanks for any help, that all the world can offer.

On my laptop, I knocked together the following keys: fn (function) + f8. This change wireless power. For some reason, it worked contrary to right click and disable wireless manually. My friend suggested this because he had the same problem and it is solved for him also.  Your laptop can use a different combination of fn + f_. No idea why this worked or if it will work for everyone, but I've tried everything else and it instantly solved the problem for me anyway...

  • Satellite M300-D4316 - wireless network detected but cannot connect

    Previously, I could use LAN wireless on my laptop but last week because I signed up to a bluetooth connection, Wi - Fi connection no longer works.
    It can even detect a wireless network around me; I don't see every time when I try to connect, & it asks me to diagnose the problem & said something like "the signal is too weak.

    I'm sure that is not the problem of wireless service - all my friends can connect to him!

    What should I do?

    Maybe the wireless LAN tipped off?

    Try to press Fn + F8 to toggle wireless devices.

    Also make sure that the wireless switch is turned on in the front and the sides of the laptop.

    Hi people,

    As a result of a virus, I put my computer to its factory settings.

    I have however lost the use of the function fn (end?) of the keyboard since and therefore cannot control the lighting of the screen and so on via the F keys any longer.

    Hello

    May I ask what system you have installed on this laptop?
    Is - this Windows 7?

    If you are using Windows 7, you need to install Toshiba Value added Package and Support Toshiba Flash Cards for utility work affects FN.

    I m nit course on the WLan driver because different C660-xxx supports various wireless network cards. Perhaps you could provide the name of the complete model of the C660-xxx
    This would facilitate the search for the Wlan driver.

  • Wireless network detection problem

    using M30X-S171ST

    the wireless card is enabled. The router is configured to allow wireless connections. the wireless adapter is unable to find the link. This card cannot be automatically configured by windows either. How can I check my setting in Configfree. I have properly configured SSID and the TC/Ip parameters are defined automatically. What Miss me...

    Hello

    You should be able to search for wireless networks in the ConfigFree Radar-utility. When you find your access point, make you a link between your computer and the access point. This will take you to the standard dialog box where you enter the SSID and encryptionkey (as appropriate).

    Good luck

  • Pavilion dm1 that suddenly will not find my wireless network.

    Hello

    I have a Pavilion dm1 notebook, running Windows 7 32 bit which is suddenly unable to connect to the wireless network. I know that wireless works very well as other devices are plugged on, and it works very well for the last few months. I connected the netbook directly on the modem with the cable.

    The wireless switch is on - watch the blue light on the wireless key. I tried to turn the computer and the internet router / wireless market of several times. When I click on the network key in the toolbar, it does not give me the ability to scan for WiFi networks, and when I try and set up a new network of the only option it gives me is using DSL/cable broadband.

    I have tried many 'solutions' to try to get a chance to see a wireless network but no luck.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you.

    Completed by reinstalling the latest drivers and all of a sudden 10 wireless networks appeared. Did not work the first time I tried it but good! Second time lucky.

  • 'Detected wireless networks' followed by 'no wireless networks were found in range ".

    Trying to help a friend with their laptop!  It's a Lenovo R61i laptop model A 8932, 54, around the age of 16 months.  WIN/XP SP3 is the only OS.  He was working on this wireless network until they are gone on vacation and tried to connect to public wireless networks! Their daughter portable computer continues to operate properly with this wireless network, and it also shows the neighborhood wireless networks as well.  The R61i has a built-in 'Pro\wireless Intel 3945ABG Network ' wireless wireless adapter.

    Connectivity and internet access works very well through the ethernet port.

    Here's what I've done so far:

    He has Norton AV.  I made sure that it was up to date and then ran a full system scan.  It was clean.

    Any help will be appreciated, and I WILL ANSWER about the results!

    Windows Update ran (after I got it work - see below) for all critical updates.

    Fact a "repair" on the wireless connection with these results:

    • Wireless networks detected
    • No wireless networks were found in range
    • Windows could not finish repairing the problem because it is impossible to perform the following action: connect to the wireless network

    That when the laptop is 5 feet of the wireless router.  It is a Dlink
    Updated the driver from Lenovo web site by the support of the Intel boards:

    • former pilot was 11.1.1.11
    • new driver is 12.4.0.21 with a date of 04/03/2009

    Went into the BIOS and reset the BIOS to its original, saved and reloaded settings.

    Checked the Device Manager.  Everything looks OK, no yellow or red devices

    Remove the network card and let Windows re - create.

    Disabled and enabled the network card

    Check the event logs.  The only entrance is on the system log.  I don't know if this event log entry is significant or not, but it's here:

    Source: NETw5x32, zero category, event 7036.
    The service entered the \DEVICE\{78E5EBB6-A194-4E9F-A840-E05CC39A5823} State.

    I have not yet tried it raise in "Safe Mode with networking".

    I would add that "Windows Update" was also not working. Graduation: A few updates have not been installed.  Error code 0 x 41. I had going in downloading and installing the latest version of Windows Installer 3.1, version 3.1.4001.5512

    Do not think that there is a relationship between these two issues, but stranger things have happened.

    The laptop has a 3-year extended warranty and I'm about to throw it in the face of Lenovo as a hardware error.  The thing that blows my mind is 'Detected wireless networks' followed by 'no wireless networks were found in range ".

    Hi Shawn

    Thank you for your help.  Here is the final solution to this problem.

    The "clean boot" you suggested worked as described, but it had no effect of awareness of wireless networks.  Ditto to start in "Safe Mode with network.  We took the laptop to Office Depot; They basically ran the same tests that I did, with the same results.  Their technology has managed to get it to connect to Wireless store by manually setting, but it would not show under 'view available networks '.  He suggested that we call their 800 support number.  The only novelty with that phone support guy came was to "Ping 127.0.0.1" which I don't think inherent in the wireless somehow.  He wanted me to call Comcast to check the internet connection.  Under the principle of "do not create a new problem while you're working on a problem", I resisted to go here as two other computers work fine on this connection from Comcast.

    We finally opted for a full charge of Windows.  This included a blue key on the laptop at boot to bring up "Rescue and recovery", then by specifying 'Restore my hard drive to the original factory condition' and "don't save all files" - we have previously saved the contents of "My Documents" on a USB key.  This charge really don't take as much time as I thought he might; only about an hour.  Most importantly - WIRELESS NETWORKS APPEAR NOW; and connect as it should!  We had to apply SP3 as reloading he brought back to SP2 status.

    I guess the lesson here is that sometimes he just reload Windows is the shortest possible solution to some of these mysterious problems.

    I had a hard time to convince me it was a hardware problem, when the system detects wireless networks but are simply not them!

    Thanks again for your help.

  • Can't find my wireless network

    I recently bought 2 identical laptops, eMachines E525 Acer. Two of them are under Vista Home Premium.  When I put in place the first laptop computer, he finds and allowed me to connect to my router wirelessly with no problems whatsoever. When I pulled up and set up the other, when I tried to connect to the router, I get the message 'no wireless networks detected. I tried to set up the connection manually, but he still refuses to connect. Since I bought the machine that day, I got to the store, thinking it was a problem with the wifi of the laptop. They tested, and he finds about 6 networks nearby. They agreed to exchange for a new machine, and when I got the same problem occurred. For the life of me, I can't understand what is happening. The router broadcasts its SSID, certainly since the first laptop computer, as well as my PS3 and my Wii see the broadcast. Any suggestions on how to force the laptop to see the SSID?

    Are you sure that your second computer is close enough to pick up the signal (or not to being blocked by something in the building)?  Have you tried to move next to the router and see if you can connect from there?

    If the original machine could microphones wireless without any configuration and she and the new machine cannot connect to your router (but other units can and they can also get a connection), I suggest that you check the router settings to make sure that it is configured to accept multiple connections a lot and that there is no security feature that needs to be reset to allow the new machine to connect (perhaps a password or something).  I would also turn off the Windows Firewall and any security software you use to make sure that they are not interfering.  Also, I could set up a new connection on the computer that cannot connect (rather than old configuration) and see if that solves the problem.  Are you sure you used the correct workgroup name during installation?

    Here is an article on how to set up wireless internet in Vista:http://www.clpgh.org/usingthelibrary/technology/wireless/WindowsVista.pdf.

    You must set up a wireless internet connection in the network as well as the connection sharing normal LAN wireless and connect to it as well as the local connection.  If you don't do this, you will not have an internet connection.  You need both.  You must also enable some features in the main area sharing network to access the internet - they are quite well defined.

    I hope this helps.  Keep us in the loop.

  • Windows 8 wireless network card problem

    Hello

    I have problems with my wireless adapter (Atheros AR5b93-already updated to the latest version of the driver). Often some time after I watch videos (offline). There will be delays in the video, and then all of a sudden the wireless network disconnects and shuts off even when my Acer wireless button is showing its active (orange led is lit). Usually I click on troubleshoot and it gives the network card and all goes well for a while then it happens again unless I close the video. Sometimes the adapter will be hidden and it will say my hardware is not found (CODE 12). What is going on?

    I have made yet. I made a few adjustments. I went to the network & sharing Center > change adapter settings > change the wifi settings and I have checked this box (LLDP Microsoft protocol pilot) and disabled my ethernet (I used never she and doubt if I ever will be) well. Hope this solves. Blue microwave THX! Will follow your advice if it does not work

    I wonder if anyone can help before I phone supported again. My motherboard is dead and ASP replaced and recovered my laptop qosmio F10. Since having back, my wireless card did not work.

    Windows detects a "network controller" whenever it starts and gives me the opportunity to install it. I tried to install it by navigating in the 'tools and utilities' records CD rom for folders and subfolders of "Wireless network driver" and it still does not detect the card.

    I also tried to install using the cd rom web gui and selected the 'Pilot wireless network' link and then tried to install it. It opens a dos command prompt and try to install but comes up with the error "failed installation.

    I ran the customer service and they told me to run the qosmio recovery/then recovery of product/recovery of qosmio and again...

    I still don't the card wireless not yet installed. This happened to someone else?

    I tried already shot the drivers from the web, but with no luck... If a representative of customer service with the help of good technical knowledge that would be great, or if someone has encountered the problem too and he had fixed to the give me some advice...

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    you see the card wireless as an unknown device in Device Manager? If this is not the case, perhaps that the card was not properly installed after replacing the motherboard.

    Sorry I have no other idea.
