Wireless connection unavailable on laptop, but shows all ok on pc and router

I was at Midway through a conversation today on msn when my wireless connection (on my laptop) disappeared. I checked my pc and everything seems ok, here, my netgear router shows that everything is fine. When I click on 'Find a wireless network' his party! I can access the net very well by plugging it but as soon as I go wireless, I still lost.

Tried to connect manually - says network with that name already there
Tried to re start all
All cables checked

It's a laptop Toshiba L300
Virgin cable broadband
Router NETGEAR Wireless

everything works fine as long as I'm using the cables.

I only had my laptop and router wireless for a month.

Please any other ideas what to do, I really need to be wireless for work as soon as possible

Hello severina_falls,

Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Community Forum.

I have some suggestions for you to see if we can provide you with your wireless connection.

(1) check that the WiFi switch is on on the front panel of your laptop. It is a quick check
(2) Recycle the router wireless on and outside. Wait at least one minute, then turn it back on. Retest with your wireless network.
(3) are getting you the error messages in the case where connects to deal with your wireless connection?
To join the event logs: click on the Start button, right-click computer, click on manage.
If you receive a notification of user account control , simply click on continue.
Double-click Event Viewer. Study summary of the the event logs for errors dealing with wireless.
(4) use System Restore to get your iIf wireless upward and running, you have a System Restore Point that was before starting the problem with your wireless network.
Use the following KB to get the procedure on the system restore.

    Or is the card fried for a reason, and this is the advice that I received from the system.

    Hello

    If it is only the appearance of the motherboard wireless card, you can try to borrow from a friend, a PCMCIA card or a USB Wireless Card, install.

    Perhaps you'd be happy and a sub $20 USB card will solve the problem.

    Be careful before paying nearly 300 to fix.

    A laptop 5 years when you work can be bought for about $150 - $180.

    Good luck.

  • I lost my wireless connection, says no wireless connection available... but they are!

    Hello

    I use a laptop dell inspiron with windows 7 - I set up a wireless connection with talk talk about 6 weeks - and things has of worked - this weekend the small icon at the bottom of the laptop had a red throug crodd there - when I clicked on "Open the network and sharing Center" he registered the wireless connection, I use and had a maximum strength indicator , but a red cross through the connection.

    I checked the wireless router with my computer pc laptop and work - blaze they work correctly. So I have concluded, the dell laptop itself (which is about 6 weeks old).

    I plugged the yellow wire - and makes hard wired - and the internet works on the laptop.

    Keeping in mind I don't know anything about computers or how correct - can someone tell me if I've lost a program and where/how to find it or not it sounds like a defect on the laptop

    I'll be very grateful for any help

    Thanks domi

    If the Dell is still under warranty, by all means, file a claim and see if a new card does the trick.  It is a Forum of Vista, this is why everything is on Vista - you should have posted in the Forums of Windows7 if it is the OS you use - then the tips and links correspond to your system.  I suggested to contact Dell in a previous post - not specifically for this, but it would have developed in the conversation.

    Even if it is not under warranty, there is a good chance that the card is the problem if the system can connect wirelessly with another device (which means that the configuration is correct and connections work and Vista has no problem with the wireless operation).  If you can, try to make sure you can return it for a full refund if you attach and encounter the same problem.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • 4500 wireless connects with 2 systems but not a third party.

    All of the recommendations noted in all HP sites were conducted.  Gets the path looking for connection test

    but then fails at the end.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times.

    I have disabled the firewall (firewall even on other systems).   Printer can be seen by web access, and

    is configured correctly.  Have it connected to the third system now via USB.   System is running XP sp3 with

    the latest from MS and all the updates from HP. (HP system).  Other systems that work are a laptop

    with XP and a Vista system.   With the exception of the laptop that is wireless, other systems connect through

    a switch to a D-link router Dir 655 B.   Note that you can have the USB connection or wireless connection in even

    time on this printer.  Any ideas?   And please do not repeat the most obvious of which have already been addressed.

    (Note I work on computers for more than 40 years and know the networks, etc., etc.)

    Thank you.

    Don't know why, but just to the dickens, have you a device add tonight, after a few days with

    the PC race, print to the printer via the USB port.   Added the printer wireless, and she said very well...

    No changes to the system, etc., etc...

    So now have the printer installed twice on this system - USB and wireless.

    Would be nice if the installer fails he looks a why...

    Thank you all anyway.

  • I just bought a new Airport Express Terminal. It connects to my laptop, but not my other devices such as iphone/ipad. Any suggestions?

    I just bought a new Airport Express Terminal. It connects to my laptop and I have working internet, but my iphone/ipad do not work with it. They say they are "connected" to the wireless network but nothing works / charges on other devices. I tried to forget the network, by renewing the lease, etc and nothing works. Any suggestions as to why my laptop works but not other devices?

    What is the serial number and model of the modem you use?... or... The AirPort Express connects directly to the Ethernet wall port?

  • HP Officejet 4500 G510n-z Wireless connection print Windows Vista, but not from Windows 7

    Printer HP Officejet 4500 G510n-z seems to be connected to my Dell laptop with Windows 7 on HP Solution Center page, but does not print. Documents just get stuck in QC. It was printing then it wasn't so that's when it wasn't. The printer works when I print from a laptop more old Vista. The last time this happened, I uninstalled and reinstalled the HP software and that doesn't seem to help. Then, for some inexplicable reason, impression began to work. It has now stopped working again. I can scan the Windows 7 laptop but not print. I tried all the troubleshooting tools that I could find without success. Thanks for trying to help.

    Hello-

    It could be caused by a couple of things:

    1. firewall on PC or router.

    2 interference (microwave, cordless phone base @ 2.4 Ghz)

    3 distance from router

    4 corrupted printer driver.

    Turn off the firewall you have and you move anything that can cause interference to router.

    If none of the above solves the problem, I'll have to install a different printer driver.

    Click Start.

    Go to devices and printers.

    Click Add a printer.

    Add a local printer. Create a new Port, then choose "Standard TCP/IP port.

    Click Next.

    TypeRegeditdans in the box 192.168.1.12 IP address or host name. (uncheck the box 'Interrogate the printer')

    Click Next.

    When the printer list opens, click windows update. (it takes a few minutes)

    After the box appears, choose HP (not Hewlett Packard) on the left and choose "Deskjet 990c" on the right.

    Click Next, the default value and end.

    Try to print using the printer Deskjet 990c.

  • How can I connect on my laptop, but not in safe mode?

    Comcast told me that I should never open my Dell laptop in safe mode.  I don't know how to change this mode.  Can you help me?  The laptop is so slow (only 3 years) and takes 15 minutes to raise even start working.  Thank you

    not sure why comcast said here.

    Perhaps, there is a set communication.

    in any case, there are a number of things you can do to speed up the computer and the test computer is safe mode is a good idea.

    so go ahead and boot your computer and wait for the desktop to load.

    You must also make sure that the ethernet cable is unplugged or the phone line is disconnected the modem before you start the computer.

    After loading the desktop computer, click Start > run > .msconfig

    (type and enter above msconfig)

    Then go to the Startup tab and check the box start secure, then reboot and the machine will launch safe mode.

    (by the way, to return to normal mode, repeat the steps to open msconfig and uncheck secure boot)

    now that you're in safe mode, test the computer.

    If works better, then we can perform a "clean boot" for operations in normal mode.

  • Wireless connection with a laptop Pavilion G6

    I'm trying to connect a pavilion G6 computer 1d70ca laptop to a Dlink dir-615 router wireless using the integrated card broadcom Bluetooth without success.  It detects a connection is available, but won't connect either manually or by using the auto. I updated the driver later and checked for new updates - not available. I check that the router is configured correctly, as I connected repeatedly with a Pavilion dv6-6c51ca notebook PC.  When I run the troubleshooter in Windows, it is not a problem. No Wizard can the HP. I would appreciate all the ideas.
