Can anyone help me with an Internet connection problem please?

Question

One of the laptops is running windows vista and the settings have changed for some strange reason. I was on this laptop this morning and everything was ok but now I have noticed the wireless LAN settings has become disabled. My question is how do I change the settings to enabled. I cannot get on line with the vista laptop. I am trying to get use to vista so don't know my way round it too well. Had to type this questions with another laptop and this one has XP.

Thanks for any answers that might help with my query.

Answer 1

Try these:

1.There will be a wireless button on your laptop's keyboard area normally with the help of "fn" key you have to enable it.

2.There will be a status indicator on your task bar near date and time right click and see you can enable or not.

3.If thats also not working go to control panel from start menu and double click wireless connection and try to enable there.

Best of Luck !

Answer 2

go to control panels - click on the network connection and right click the wireless network icon and choose enable

also try turning off your router then turn it on and leave it 4 or 5 mins - then restart your pc

or make sure you dont have a wireless switch on you laptop that you have switched off by accident !
