If you see something like Wireless
connection unavailable or One or More Wireless Networks Found,
or Just Cannot Get your Wireless Network to work, here are some
troubleshoot steps.
Reboot/reset
(unplug) your wireless router… the thing on/by your desk with the
antennas. Just pull the power cord out of the back, the lights on
the front will go off, and then plug it back it. Wait about 20
seconds and try the Internet again. If it still doesn’t work,
follow the steps below.
Find the Wireless Network Connection in the System
Tray (bottom right by the clock) by moving your Mouse over the icons
until you see “Wireless Network.”
It
will probably look like 2 computers (see 1st icon on the left in
picture below)
Right
Click on that icon, and then Left Click
on View Available Wireless Networks
Then
a window will pop up with (hopefully) a list of available wireless
networks. If you see your network listed,
click Connect.
After you
click connect, if security is enabled you will see the following box
asking for your network key.
If you are not sure of you key, please call
GetEasyComputerHelp.com and we maybe able to give it to you.
If you know your key, enter it, and re-enter
it to confirm.
After
you click Connect, you may need to wait as much as 30 seconds
then you can move your cursor back on the wireless network icon and
HOPEFULLY you will see that you are connect (as below)
.
Try opening Internet Explorer to
see if you get on the Internet.
If
this doesn’t work, restart your computer.
If
you’ve restarted, you may want to run through these steps again.
