Help with Wireless Internet! please!!!?

Question

I recently re-installed Windows on my laptop for college and now when i got it up and running again i cant find my wireless internet connection. Do I have to re-install the internet or something?? I'm so confused..

Answer 1

Well I know you didnt mean re-install the internet.  

If you redid your computer and it came with a wireless card, maybe its just not showing.

Right click on network neighborhood (places), choose properties.

In there should be your regular LAN (wired) connection and your wireless card.  Right click it for properties and make sure it is showing in task bar.

Or double click it.

If it is not there at all,

maybe it needs drivers?

Answer 2

Nothing needs to be re-installed,

The icon, or desktop short-cut was probally erased or over-written.

Just perform a PC search to find the icon.

Go to start >

Then Search >

All Files And Folders >

Internet Explorer > or Whatever it was called >

And once you have found the icon > CLICK and DRAG > on to desktop background.

Good luck, and enjoy college, I am !
