How can I enable wireless capability on my laptop computer?

On my laptop, there is a button that I can push and hold to turn on wireless capabilities. However, the button is broke and although the device (WAN) is enabled and working properly under system devices, I'm still not able to browse the internet. The reason is because the wireless capability is not activated. How can I go through the system to turn on my wireless capability?How can I enable wireless capability on my laptop computer?
Depending on the make of the laptop - You should have a shortcut to enable / diable wireless functionality. I am not sure about the old ones. In case of dell 6400 - This is fn+F2

  • How do I avoid getting disconnected with my wireless router?

    On my laptop which has wireless internet, everytime the phone rings or someone is talking on it, I get disconnected from the internet. However, this does not happen on my desktop. (Which is not wireless) Why does this happen, and what can I do to fix it?How do I avoid getting disconnected with my wireless router?
    Change the channel of the router. If there are any cordless phones in the building they may share the channel. Keep them as far away from the router (including their base stations) as possible. Unlikely, since the desktop does not suffer, but check that ALL the phone equipment in use is connected through a dsl filter, not straight to the wall. You must have one filter on every piece of equipment and the dsl router.How do I avoid getting disconnected with my wireless router?
    Go into your router. Change your wireless channel to 1, 6, or 11. Do not use any other of the channels. This is because all of the channels have overlap. In order to get the maximum number of channels with no overlap, you have to use 1, 6, and 11.

    How to get a wireless connection on a factory-state computer?

    Okay, so recently I wiped my computer with a recovery cd. I can't get a wireless connection on my computer! The wireless router is already installed on another computer, it's a linksys WRT54GX. The 'LAN or High-Speed Internet' option shows up, but the wireless connection doesn't show up at all. Help!How to get a wireless connection on a factory-state computer?
    Assuming Windows-

    Go to your device manager (start %26gt; control panel %26gt; system %26gt; device manager) and expand the 'network adapters' sub menu. - If you see anything that says 'wireless' there, right-click it and make sure that it is enabled (if it says 'disable', it's good, if it says 'enable', click it). If you don't see it there then the device is either missing or the device driver is missing and needs to be reinstalled.



    If it is a laptop, if equipped make sure that your wireless NIC switch is on.



    Then scan for networks.



    Good luck!How to get a wireless connection on a factory-state computer?
    What is the brand of the computer? And the model. As soon as you answer these questions, you can go to the manufacturers website, and within, you will find a sub page named support. You can then find all of your computer's downloads once you enter your model number. You want the wireless driver, or wireless software driver.



    For example, if i had a dell, I would go to dell.com and on the right hand side click on support, services, and drivers.... then id search for the model number of my computer.

    How do I add more computers to a wireless network?

    I have recently moved home to my parents, and can no longer connect to their wireless network.



    There is a box saying 'attempting to connect' or something, and then I get an error message.



    I think the problem might be that my sister has got a laptop since I have been away, and so there are currently 4 computers connected to the network. I heard that some networks automatically set a limit of 4 client PCs, so how do I increase this?



    I think I read something about logging into a router, but cant remember anything more. Incidentally, the wireless box is not physically connected to any of the computers.



    Hope you guys can help, thanks!How do I add more computers to a wireless network?
    your wireless card should scan for a network to connect to you should be able to connect to it then. Find your internet connection and click on it, see what options you have.

    If you want to clear the list of computers in the DHCP list, which is the deal that automatically gives out ip addresses, just, restart the router that should do it. Then try to connect again. If the number is limited to 4 and your sis ain't around right now, you can take her spot.How do I add more computers to a wireless network?
    if you are connected via cable to the router it usually has a limit of 4 but if it is wireless try to reconfigure your settings and see if it shows the hotspot connection and try to access it again. with some network interface cards ( what is used to connect to the internet or a network) some cards have their own software that will do this for you. check with old disks or documents that came with or download patches or doucmentation from the vendor
    Get on your sister's laptop and click on....start....run..press enter....a black dos window will open up.



    In that window type... ipconfig and press enter. It wil;l give you some info like IP address etc...



    Look at the default gateway. Should be like 192.168.0.1 or something. Open a browser(internet Explorer) and type that address into the browser.



    You will then be asked for a username and password. You will need to know this. IUt should be in the router manual or you can look the default one up online.



    Once you have logged onto the router, then look at the dhcp addresses. This is where it would limit the number of computers. If that is ok then check your wireless settings. see what type on encryption you are using and match the encryption level and the key on your laptop.



    Hope this helps...Email me if you cant figure it out. I may not get back to you tomorrow though. Going to see transformers...Yes I am a Nerd;)



    GL
    The default amount of wireless computer ( or devices ) that can connect to a wireless router is around 250.

    Most likely your sister was high tech and turned on the wireless security .

    You need the special code to get in.

    If the security is not on try changing the channel from channel 6 to 1 or 11.

    How do I connect a wireless network adapter to my xbox?

    I am getting xbox live but don't know how to connect the wireless adapter to my internet connection.How do I connect a wireless network adapter to my xbox?
    as far as literally connecting it to your xbox, it connects by USB (duh duh duh duh!) when you connect it and go through all of your xbox live account setup, you will have to go to the network settings and from there you can choose your wireless network to connect to. if the network is locked, you will have to type in WEP key (suprise). once you've connected to your internet, you're good to go. the wireless adapter automatically picks up your IP and DNS settings, unless if you have the settings set to manual, which you will have to enter everything manually. i'm pretty sure this is it, have fun on live.How do I connect a wireless network adapter to my xbox?
    you just need the wifi connectorr for the XBOX and the connector should just pick up on your wireless internet. The XBOW dose not come with a built in wireless connection unlike the PS3 that does have a wireless connector.



    And if you already have the wifi connector you just plug it into the USB port in the XBOX and it should pick up the wireles conection by it self.
