I recently moved and had to re-setup a new wireless network at home. Unfortunately, my laptop can't seem to see any wireless network (the available wireless network list is always empty). There's a non protected wireless network near my home, and even though it doesn't appear in the list, it automatically connects to it. Using my girlfriend's laptop, I can tell that there is about 10 networks in the area (including mine). My laptop doesn't see any of them. I must have triggered something because I never had any problem of the kind before.
I'm using Windows XP SP2
Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection
What should I be on the look out for? What are the possible causes?
Tried that, but no luck. It reinstalled but same situation. Still connect to that non protected network, but the list is still empty. – nicon – 2009-10-18T23:33:49.630
1Have you tied using your wireless card's own software? You may want to check to see if wireless zeroconfig started correctly. Right click my computer and go to manage then services and right click Wireless Zero Config and click Restart. – thegreyspot – 2009-10-19T13:02:35.377
I finally managed to try Intel Software (couldn't do it last night, their download site was in maintenance) and it worked! The software see all the networks available. – nicon – 2009-10-19T23:27:35.850
Good old intel proset! Good to hear to bad you couldnt use wireless zero config:( (You may want to try and see if you can switch it back to "Let windows manage my wireless connections", It might work again) – thegreyspot – 2009-10-19T23:59:16.190
