Computer laptop Windows 7 can not find wireless network connections
My Samsung RV510's laptop had windows 7 on front and without wire worked but recently my hard drive for this laptop broke and I had to get a new HARD drive. Now I have a new one that I installed windows 7 on it and now it cannot find wireless network connections even if there is a broadband router in the same room as the laptop. When I try to connect to a wireless network, the computer does not find.
You have turned on WiFi? Have you checked Device Manager to see if your wireless network card has a driver? The different procedure for Urning edited that WiFi on East and model, so you for each brand will have to read your user guide - I promise he won't give you the leprosy! :-) To check the driver, click Start and right click on computer, then click Properties. Click on Device Manager and look for the entry that says that the network cards. Click the arrow to the left and look to see if
There is a! or? next to him. If so, you must download the driver appropriate from your manufacturer.

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

Hi SANJIT_78,
· The computer is connected to a domain environment?
· Are you facing any performance issue with wireless network connection?
· What operating system is installed on the computer?
The computer you are using apparently have a wireless network interface installed in it and therefore can detect and connect to any available wireless network. The dlink network is the name of a wireless network available in your area and your computer to connect to this wireless network.
Wireless networks more private need a password to connect to them and therefore are protected. But the dlink network to which you are connecting is apparently a public wireless network, and it doesn't have a password to connect to it. So which allows any user to connect their devices to this network wireless. Due to this insecure wireless network mode, your computer displays you the message "the information transmitted through this link may be visible to others". If you want to connect to this wireless network, I suggest you first protect your computer with a good program antivirus and firewall.
To enable the Windows Firewall on your computer, you can check this link:
