Windows 8 will not list my home wifi network

Just installed Windows 8 on my laptop HP Pavilion dv7 that was under Windows 7. Now, he does not list my home wifi network, and if I try to manually enter it says it's already there. How to recognize my network?

Vinod, I tried all of your advice without success and finally finished by calling the technical support of Microsoft Chat. A very competent technician, Urso U., quickly found the problem. Given that Windows 8 has been to see all my neighbors WiFi networks, he immediately handed to zero on my router settings. Well, it seems Windows 8 dislikes the "extended" mode 802.11 g who was broadcasting my Motorola WiFi Modem cable. By changing this one just setting and uninstalling and reinstalling the WiFi RealTek card in Device Manager (to restore its settings), my laptop now happily running on my home network. Thank you all!

    Is properly installed wireless adapter driver?
    Go to start-> type devmgmt.msc-> press on enter. In the Device Manager window, expand network adapters. You should be able to see a list of network adapter as Ethernet, Bluetooth, etc. Make sure that you can find the adapter wireless from the list. If so, double-click it. Properties windows will be open. On the general tab, under device status, if it shows that the device is not functioning properly, please remove the case, locate the wireless network card and make sure the connections of antennas are coneected correctly. If even a connection is not properly connected or damaged, you cannot connect to any WiFi network.

  • Pavillion23: Windows 7 will not be updated. I get error code 800706F7.

    Windows 7 will not be updated. I get error code 800706F7. I removed the update painful KB304394, which of course still blocking updates, earlier.

Now, when I try to install an update manually, I get the 800706F error code.

    Yes, I have same problem of yours, I've finally updated all those win updates, now that I started some bloggers advice what to do to solve these problems. I actually had a problem with a crash suddenly and blackout of screen and other unusual tracks on this desk, until the February MS cannot install updates. what I've done, I've tried the [FSC.exe] System File Checker, see him through YouTube "how to use FSC,"... Solved problems of 100%, but it depends on the number of files that can not be repaired, my results are minor just repair corrupt files... Try it...

  • My Windows Defender will not remain, it turns off

    original title: My Windows Defender

    My Windows Defender will not stay on, even though I have a scan scheduled @ 02:00 every day. I do not understand why the Defender stops, and I get a warning telling me it's off. It analyzes every day @ 02:00, and I manually do a quick scan when I see the warning icon. Help!
    Thank you for your help.

    Copy davidhk129 answer to the question of Windows Defender won't start do not:

    Here's a direct copy...

    If you have
    one of the following AV, antivirus, programs installed, it will stop your Windows Defender. Purpose of these AVs have their own advocates. 2 defenders on the same machine will create conflicts.
    Bottom line: it's ok.
    It's normal.
    List of AVs which will stop Windows Defender:

    Norton
    McAfee
    AVG
    Microsoft Security
    Essentials

    If you don't have AV programs above, here's how to restart Windows Defender:

    Start button > in the search box, type Services > press the Enter key > scroll to find Windows Defender, click on it >...
    topic status , it must be said... Has begun
    under Startup Type, it must be said... Automatic
    If it does not say that, right click on Windows
    Defender > click Properties >
    in Startup Type, click on the pointer to the right and select automatic
    to the service status, click Start
    Click OK when finished.

  • Satellite P850 - Windows 8 will not restart properly

    Does anyone know why Windows 8 will not restart correctly on the laptop Satellite P850?

    It seems that whenever I have to restart, especially after the installation of an update, it crashes right on the screen of "Reboot" and I usually find myself having to hold the power button down to completely stop and then turn upwards again. Sometimes, I still have to do to make it stop.

    I would be very grateful for any help that anyone can give me please.

    I have no idea why the Windows 8 will not restart correctly, but this document should help you to repair or restore the system of Windows 8 on your Satellite P850

  • Home Wifi network is not detectable!

    After implementing the lollipop, the my home WiFi network is not detectable on my motorcycle G. All other Wifi networks nearby make their appearance as usual except for the WiFi in my house.

    I tried the partition hiding wiping. Did not help.

    Then I did a hard reset on my device, after speaking to a Motorola Assistant, did not help.

    Is there something wrong with my router or my device?

    Lollipop does not allow for channels above 11 in Wifi - is your router set to use channels 12 or 13? It's the only thing that has changed in lollipop I know.
