• Wireless adapter missing / wireless light stays Orange.

  HP Pavilion G6-1210SA (A3S73EA #ABU) [SN: 5 CD 1402855]

  I bought this laptop yesterday, less than 24 hours old. I installed a clean Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and then the problems started.  Install Win7 Ultimate on my other machines was not a problem.

  Under 'Other devices', network controller is displayed and no driver can be found for this.

  I tried the hard reset as suggested in another thread - did not work.

  I tried to install some of the wireless drivers found on the site of HP - no luck.  Most of installs it fail/time.

  The network LAN adapter has disappeared, but I installed the Realtek drivers, and they worked.  No luck with the Realtek WLAN drivers.

  If it cannot be fixed over the next 2 days, it will be the 2nd HP laptop that I returned in less than a week!  I don't know if I'll try a 3rd...

  I am at a loss.

  Hi, Max:

  According to the device details ID you have validated, your laptop is the Ralink RT5390 802.11b/g/n WiFi.

  This should be the driver that you need.

  Yes, these identifiers confirm a wired NIC Realtek

• Broadcom 802.11 Wireless Adapter missing the tx1327cl Pavilion with Win 7/64

  I was given a flag of non-working tx1327cl.  Vista 32 factory-installed but I have the recovery disks used by HP to restore to the factory and then update the files, etc..  Now I haved "custom" installed Win 7 64 (since I couldn't switch from Vista 32 to Win 7 64).

  When Win 7 was first, loading wireless drivers and it was fine.  As I downloaded all updates, I continued to make sure after each of them noticing if the wireless was still there.  It was... until the download to Windows Live Essentials has been installed.  He disappeared.  It is not listed in the control panel.  It IS listed in the information system under network adapters.

  When Vista 32 was on, it would be entering and leaving some institutions.  That's why I saw him like a hawk!

  So... question... Is there some 'service' that I need to turn on?  Is there a 'software' that I didn't and I don't have the 'driver' at this stage?  I uninstalled and reinstalled.  I updated with Vista 64 HP drivers and updated with the Microsoft's Windows Update driver.  No help.  Being in the information system means it is there, but something in him running, use it, is not there or not properly defined.

  I looked on this forum and a few others had a similar problem, but their positions do not seem to help.

  I have also some other questions related to "not be able to upgrade from Vista 32 to Win 7 64" and having to do an installation "made-to-measure":

  Things like the fingerprint reader, TV Tuner, etc drivers installed, but I do seem to have software, as for the fingerprint record, etc.  How can I do so that everything works as it should with software & drivers with the hardware in the machine?

  Thank you, Sherry

  Thanks for the link.  I will try.

  Interestingly, between my post and your post, an update for the Chipset offered by Windows Update send me to a driver from HP site link seems to have fixed the Broadcom.  After you install the update of the Chipset and restarting, the Viola, my Broadcom has been "found" and installed and started.

• Satellite A350-22D - cannot activate the network (Windows 10) wireless adapter

  With Windows 10 Wi - Fi worked well. Suddenly three days it s active no more
  FN + F8 does not work.
  The switch in front of the computer or the other.
  At startup, the computer recognizes the card and then turns off the front LED.

  The card WiFi Intel 5100 AGN and pilots the latest work well.
  I uninstalled and reinstalled but no result.
  What can I do to get my Wi - Fi works again?

  PS: when I've been upgraded to Windows 8, it had the same problem...

  This old notebook was designed for Vista and support for Win7. No more than that.
  FN + F8 is controlled by special tool developed for the feature FN keys.

  As much I know Toshiba offers no update for this older model laptop.
  Let's see if any other A350 owner has found a solution for this.

  I have A300 with Win7 on it, but I don't want to test with Win10 due to all possible issues I have with her.

• missing wireless adapter!

  I had everything working properly. However, after automatically an update of windows, the wireless adapter has disappeared. She can still be seen in the Device Manager window.
  I was connected to the internet by cable.
  I have an access point at home where I usually connect my laptop. I assure you that the access point is not the problem as I saw at least 3 laptops in the same network works normally, most smartphones and so on.

• Wireless adapter is missing. Now under 'other devices '.

  Hello

  I'm running Windows 7 on a Dell Latitude E6420. My wireless adapter is missing. The only way you can find it is through the device and then Manager, it appears as 'Other devices' - 'Network controller' with a yellow sign - Code 28. I tried to have the driver update system - he finds nothing. I also downloaded newer versions of Intel and Dell - nothing. If I force it to do manually (I would locate etc) then I get a blue screen.
  I started the computer off a Linux LiveCD and the wireless adapter works flawlessly.
  I ran out of laps. Would appreciate any help on what to do (short of reinstalling Windows, I really want to get to the bottom of it without it).
  Thank you very much.

  Hi JoqngclyE0,

  Thanks for your reply. In my case, it's different. If you read my original post, I say that I tried to start up with a Linux LiveCD and it resumed instantly wireless card. It is clear to me that this is a Windows problem.

  Please keep in mind that my computer is a Dell, so nothing to do with these HP problems. I'm sure reinstall would fix things, but there is no guarantee that the problem will not happen and I don't want to have to reinstall on the one hand, and on others I like to think I'm rational and I understand why things happen.

  No help from anyone, really appreciated.

  Thank you

• HP dv6-6c10us: HP dv6-6c10us Broadcom 802.11n wireless adapter does not work after windows 10 installed

  I have a laptop HP dv6-6c10us with a Broadcom 802.11n wireless adapter.  It worked fine on Win 7.  When I upgraded to win 10, it has stopped working.  The driver has not been updated since 06/02/13.

  Until the driver is updated by Broadcom or HP, this computer is now a desktop computer.

  Any suggestions on how to get the adapter wireless on Windows 10?

  I recommend you to go back and do a system restore to a point before started to install the automatic updates, and where worked the wireless.

  Then download this tool that stops updates to install automatically.

  https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/3073930

  Hide all of them and then install one by one until you find the one that is to destroy the wireless connection.

  When you have found the culprit just hide it again and it will not be installed.

  You can create a system restore point each time you install an update.

  Tedious, but you should get where you want to be.
