  1. Wifi networks not being shown


    I am unable to see the list of network and when I click on taskbar network setting button it does not respond.

    When i right click on the icon and open network and internet settings and then try to click show available networks click doesnt work.what is the issue ?

    I have also tried to restart adapter, started Radio service automatic settings from manual. Yet that button does not work.

  2. (new/other) WIFI Networks not shown

    Hi there,

    my laptop is run with windows 8

    In the past I was able to connect with new/other WIFI networks (e.g. in hotels) without any problem. Now I discovered that only "known" WIFI networks are shown with which I can connect without any problem.

    WIFI router works without problem (was able to connect with my smart phone and tablet easily).

    I am using McAfee LifeSafe and checked with their hotline. Even after having de-activated all features of McAfee problem could not be solved.

    What can I do that new/other WIFI routers/networks are shown again in the list of available networks?

    In a nutshell:

    - WIFI router in perfect function

    - smart phone and table easily connected

    - laptop doesn't show available networks also after having de-activated Internet Security software (McAfee)

    Looking forward to your ideas. There must be something that I can change as it used to work in the past without any problem...

    Many thanks to all who might have an idea.

    3 Cheers

    Andreas

  3. Wifi network is not shown:

    Dear All,



    I'm using Nokia E63.

    Firmware version: 500.21.009



    If i am (already) connected to my wifi network (could b browsing (web) or any other gprs app), and i want to use some other gprs related app(cud be web), when it asks to connect to some access point, "select access point", my currently connected wifi is
    not shown there. Rather an option 'search for wlan' is shown with other local network options.



    If i click "search for wlan", it gives me an error that one wlan is already cnncted, disconnect it ist.



    And if i try to connect it again, it does show my (already connected) wifi in 'select access point' option. i.e, it shows it in 2nd try (if i m already connected to wifi network).



    However this problem dosnt happen if i m going to connect to wifi for the ist time (i.e, if wifi is not connected in my phone), it does show my wifi router in select access point option...



    I've been facing this problem for the last 3 to 4 days, before that it was working fine...





    Thanks in advance



    Regards,

    Omer.

    Wifi networks not being shown

    WiFi appears in Manage Known Networks, not in Show Available Networks

    The list of WiFi connections shown when you click the WiFi icon in the taskbar is a list of all the signals that can currently be seen by the WiFi adapter. The list in Manage Known Networks is a list of all those you have previously successfully connected to, whether or not they are currently available.


    The only plausible explanation is that for a while that WiFi signal had been turned off.
