  This can often be a problem with a security encryption. There may be a wrong key entry or the client adapter does not support the encryption is used.

• '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.

• Router E4200, cannot secure the wireless network

  When my E4200 wireless network appears on a discovery list of wireless networks, there a padlock beside him in devices (like my Xbox and iPhone) that who would use to show that it is a wireless network, requiring a password. When I use my Xbox to connect wireless now, he said: "you connect to an unsecured network. Are you sure you want to continue? »

  I used the web portal to select 'Factory Reset' of my router. I also told my iPhone to forget and not automatically connect wireless network. After factory reset, I went to the configuration section of the web page wireless network access router, put a new name for the wireless network, personal WPA2 enabled for 2.4 and 5 GHz networks, developed a completely new password for two I had never used before and then looked for the network on my iPhone. I chose it and it connected right away without asking for a password. Still once, the network does not appear with a padlock next to him in the list of devices to the network from my iPhone WiFi and my XBox says always that this is an unsecured network.

  When using my internet browser to access router, WiFi networks are both classified as WPA2 Personal and each has a password in the password box (and Yes, I recorded the changes - that's what it shows even if I disconnect and then reconnect to the router access.) I tried to remove the power cord for 30 seconds and plug in again and there is no change.

  It's quite a recent change, like maybe the last week or more. I don't know if there was a firmware update or what - my router is configured for auto updates and when I click to check the latest updates, it says that there are no more updates available.

  TL; Dr: said access my router my wireless security is turned on. None of my wireless devices see as secure WiFi networks and each of them can connect without having to type a password.

  Do a reset factory and set up from scratch.

  If this fails, try this:

  Manually download the FW file to the local office of PCs.
  Reset the router, use IE or FF with all security disabled add-ons, load the FW file and let you treat.
  Factory reset the router once more and set up from scratch.

• Connection to the wireless network trouble at the start of Windows 7

  I have configured my computer will automatically connect to my home network, but at the start, it aims rather to connect to 'SoftAP-C0', a network with zero signal strength that probably belongs to one of my neighbors. It is impossible to connect and displays "waiting for users ' instead of 'connected' or 'disconnected '. I then have to disconnect this network manually connect to my network home and enter the security key. Because my computer never gets to actually connect to the network SoftAP, I can't access the configuration window to disable the automatic connection (if it is still what makes my computer trying to connect to it in the first place.) Is there another way to access its configuration (otherwise than through the network and sharing Center)?

  Hello

  You can see a list of available wireless networks and then connect to one of those networks, no matter where you are. The wireless networks appear only if your computer has a wireless network adapter and driver installed and the adapter is turned on.

  If you want Windows to ask permission before attempting to connect to a wireless access point, you can Turn off wireless on the laptop.

  You can have a switch on the laptop turns off the same. Turning off Wireless is specific to the model of the laptop.

• 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.

• Wireless network adapter does not work anymore and will not be repeated work without stopping the computer and then back on.

  Sometimes I leave my computer on at night.  Sometimes I notice that when I get back to him the next day that he has limited connection to the network I use.  When I try to disconnect it from the network, then reconnect, it says that it cannot connect.  Then, when I try to restart my computer it is sitting at a screen saying "stop down". "."  My wireless network software also is unaccessable in which she does not open and if I close the Task Manager and reopen it flashes for a second then closes.

  However when I turn it on manually and then turn it on again, which apparently is not good for the computer, I am once again able to connect to the network with full access.

  Can someone please tell me why this keeps happening and how to fix it?

  Hello

  Old laptops use to come with very little memory.  Since then, software exceed the amount of memory installed

  Check the amount of memory you have and see if you can upgrade.

  You can find and expanded manual on Dell' support for the laptop.

  Regarding the wireless.

  It is possible that the wireless card is not operational and need to reinstall drivers.

  Maybe this can help.

  Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

  If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

  Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.
