  1. 2 similar Wireless names on same computer??


    I am not a computer nerd but need to know if this is necessary to have 2 wireless with similar names -- NetGear74 and NetGear74-5GB on my desktop. Well my desktop is HP Omen 870-119 and have the cable modem, Thomson DC475 from my internet service provider also have the router, Netgear R7000 5GB. I just checked the available networks in Network & Internet in Settings ( Windows 10 64X Pro ). My question is that do I have to have both similar wireless on or one wireless. Yes we use wireless for 2 other laptops and 2 android phones as well too. OK the wireless show me two connections with NetGear74 and NetGear74-5GB. I believe that I really don't need both wireless just one with NetGear74-5GB which have the router to connect. Now my question is that how do I get rid of one wireless name with NetGear74. I am not sure how to remove the name with NetGear74 and believe that can be done in registry? Let me know if there is another way to remove the name with NetGear74. Look forward to see the answer about this

  3. (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

    wireless network adapter problem

    Hi,

    Let's try these troubleshooting steps:

    Method 1:

    • Open the list of available networks by clicking the network icon in your task bar.
    • Locate the network name on the list and right-click or press and hold on it.
    • Click or tap “Forget this network” to delete the profile from your computer.
    • Once done, reboot your device and then reconfigure the connection to the network.

    Method 2:

    • Press Windows key + X, select Command prompt (Admin) to bring up elevated Command Prompt.
    • In Command prompt type the following (Replace Wireless Profile Name with your profile name): netsh
      wlan delete profile name="Wireless Profile Name"
    • Press the enter key and reboot your device, once done reconfigure your wireless network profile.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Regards.
