i have a compaq presario cq57 notebook pc,windows7 home prem 64 bit)it was called Magicdisk,after trying for the last 3 months to uninstall this program(it would say INSTALL.LOG not found)i even did system restore to earlier setting but it was still on there,but after researching online someone told me to go to the program files in the hard drive and delete it from there,so that is what i did and it did work all program files were gone,now since i have done that 3 days ago i have had some pretty bad issues with my laptop.first it started with it telling me that my hard drive is gonna fail and to back up and a box pops up every 30 mins to remind me of this and every time i restart it says it in the bios and wants me to run a hard drive test but the same person told me not to worry because it is just a part of the 'magicdisk virus' and to just ignore it,so im wondering if this is true...now the next thing that happend 2 days ago my laptop quit connecting the wireless network,all the drivers r there and updated they r in the device manager as fine and working properly,i am connected with the etherport right now i have REALTEK RTL8188CE 802.11 B/G/N WIFI ADAPTER when i run diagnostics it says that i have a problem with the driver but i cant seem to find one and the only place my network shows up is in the LAN internet access REALTEK PCIe FAMILY CONTROLLER..it wont let me find a network manually it doesnt show up in manage wireless networks,if i disable the LAN then its not on here at all and it wont detect it so i am completely stumped as to what the problem is..i have tried it all!! uninstalling,reinstalling drivers,unplugging the router(although all my other wifi things work),restored to earlier date,changing channels,u name it i have probably tried it!!but like i said im new at this so there the possibility i wasnt doin it right.
I have a laptop in my home that couldn't connect to my network, it shows exteremely weak signal for my wlan, I have mac filter in the router, and checked that mac address is added to the filter, encryption configuration is fine, and it was working before a week , it can connect to any other network in other places except mine, I tried to take the laptop to my work and wireless is working so fine.

I have a fairly new Toshiba Satellite P755 laptop and just started having an issue connecting to my Netgear wireless internet network since yesterday. The issue is that every time I turn on my laptop after it was off or hibernated my computer won't connect to my wireless network but I do see it available to connect to. When I try to connect it won't work unless I reset or unplug the router and plug it in again (Windows Diagnostic Tool says check router access points). Once I do that and wait a couple minutes I can connect to my network again. I have a Realtek RTL8188CE Wireless card and made sure my drivers were up to date. I have tried unchecking the option under Device Manager to not use it if the battery is low and that didn't work. I also tried to system restore and when I did that I got the following error: (0xc0000022) which says an unspecified error occurred and my files and settings were not changed. I have AVG Free 2013 and haven't made any new changes or updates recently.

I have 3 computers all running 64bit Windows Home premium all have 802.11n cards. 2 have no problem connecting to the wireless network the 3rd can see the network but won't connect or has the dreaded yellow exclamation mark with limited connectivity.
This seems to be a windows issue but not sure. When I look at the wireless profile in windows it says the security is WEP but the router is set up as WPA-2. I have tried changing the setting in Windows to WPA-2 but that then generates another error in the network discovery window saying the settings are not correct or something to that effect.
1) I have reinstalled the driver didn't work.
2) I have removed the security altogether didn't work.
3) reset the router didn't work (Although as stated earlier the other 2 computers connect with no problems)
4) Deleted wireless profile and started again didn't work.
The following worked untill I restarted the computer but would not after that even if I applied the same steps.
1) Assigned a static IP - This worked but once I restarted the computer it would no longer connect. Tired different IP address from 192.168.1-149. No joy 2)Copied the network profile from both the other machines same result as #1.
I have just set up a wireless network, and my phone (android) can connect to it fine with the correct wep key, but my laptop (windows 7) cannot. it sees the network but when I try to connect it does not ask for a wep key, it just tells me it cannot connect. I have tried going into the 'network and sharing center' and connecting manually but no dice.
I have an Acer Aspire v5-571 running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, and I've been running into trouble connecting to my home's wireless network for the past couple days. It just says that my laptop is unable to connect. I've tried everything I can think of; I've reinstalled and updated all drivers from the Acer website, done system restores from weeks ago, installed all Windows updates, and I've even wiped my PC and reinstalled windows.

I have Windows 7 Ultimate installed on my machine. Whenever I try to connect to a wireless network it does not get connected. It keeps only identifying...
I am getting IPs using DHCP only and rest all things like authentication are correct.
If I run "ipconfig -all" it gives "Media disconnected" for all adapters, does it mean it's hardware issue?
I need to connect to my wireless network at home I have to be nearby the router, if I try going upstairs I lose connection and network is not recognized anymore.
At first it was a problem with the range of the router but I booted on my Linux distro and on exactly the same physical spot Win7 doesn't recognize anything, I get a 60% availability and everything works perfectly.
Just started having problems connection to any network or internet. Have new lappy that was working great until today. I am going out of town for a while and I was setting up my Slingbox. Somewhere along the line, I lost ANY connections, even to the router.
Have tried 3 different restore points. Can connect with wire to the router & get internet. HP, 64 bit.
I relocated to a new apartment and have been having problems connecting to the wireless router there. The laptop sees the network but it cannot connect to it
In my former house, I was connecting to the wireless network without problems. I have tried so many things which include;
Uninstalling the wireless card driver and restarting the system Installing windows update to update all the drivers disabling and re-enabling the wireless network etc but all could not resolve the issue,
I got my daughter a new Compaq CQ-57 laptop (Windows 7 sp1) and my other daughter a new Ipod touch. Started up the Ipod touch and connected to the wirless network no problem. Started up and tried to connect the new laptop to our wireless network and it will see the SSID and attempt to connect but never gets to the point of asking for the security passkey. It just puts me into turning off the router which does not help as all other devices in the house work or into the loop of trying over and over again to connect. I tried to connect to another secured network in our subdivision and it asks for their passkey. We have Verizon DSL using a Westell VersaLink 327W gateway, WEP enabled security. It is several years old but works great still. I currently have multipe devices connected with no issues. (2 Compaq CQ-60 laptops both Windows 7 sp1, 2 Ipod Touchs including the new one, WII game system from last year, 2 HTC Incredible cell phones, HP Photosmart B209A wireless printer). Not all devices are used at the same time. The gateway only has WEP security. I have tried to disable it and just have an open network, didnt work for the new computer.
Have a brand new pavailion quad cord windows 7 home premium 64bit. i also purchased a usb wireless adapter[url]...
this adapter was working fine for a few hours. the internet connection is cable, the adapter gets about two bars of connectivity, and now when i try to connect to network i get unable to connect to network. i have removed the wirless network, have added it back, entered the security key and nothing. i have a netgear wireless router. not sure what the deal is. i have made sure the power settings on the adapter are off, and this adapter doesnt seem to have the sleep mode option on it. windows 7 also found the drivers automatically. the machine is brand new, other machines/devices on in the house get to the internet just fine.
I have an Aspire One Acer and i have a problem with my wireless network.I can see every wireless networks near me except the one at home. I am like 1 meter away and windows 7 cant detect it.The weird thing is that my other devices(laptop, mac, pc, mobile etc..) can detect it and connect normally.I even formatted and re-installed windows 7 on Aspire One laptop but still cant detect it.I also tried uninstalling and re-installing the network drivers but still nothing seems to fix the problem.
I'm having a connection issue with my new computer running Windows 7 Professional x64. When I first set it up, the wireless connection worked flawlessly, and then the next day the internet cut out and has not connected since (currently 2 days). Note that I can still connect to the Network, it is just the internet connection that is the issue. Other computers and devices can still connect to the network and internet, and as a temp fix I am using a wired connection to the same router.
My router is a Dynalink RTA1025W Rev2 using WPA2-Personal security, and my computer has a 802.11n Wireless LAN Card.

I have also attempted to connect to a neighbor's unsecured wireless network, however I was also unsuccessful with that.

I know this is an old post, but I am encountering the same problem and I can't connect to the internet.A few days ago, my network was connecting to it's normal name but later I was not able to connect because it is names "BLAH 2" I disabled it and my original one popped up again and it's fine.Now, I can't even disable and enable back to my original one. I've tried deleting it on that screen shot that was given and connecting again but still no luck.
I have windows XP mode installed on Window 7 Enterprise and running Windows XP ofcorce. I need to connect my laptop to wired network and in some time to connect wireless for XP mode using. What I mean : I want to use wired internet for my Windows 7 and in same time wireless network for windows XP in XP mode that is running. This I need because those two windows need to be connected in different networks.
Windows tells me that I am connected to the network but I do not get internet access after turning the pc on, waking it from sleep or restart. However, if I disconnect from the network and reconnect I have internet access immediately.
