1. Problem,X through the wireless network icon in taskbar

My Resolution,click repair in the icon,go to device manager check no red or explamation marks in the network adapters,reset router!,go to network connections make sure the wireless network is enabled! still no joy!!!!

2.Problem,limited or no connectiviy message at the wireless icon in task bar,

My Resolution,To Be Honest I have never heard of this problem so basically i did the same proceduce as in problem 1,still no joy!!!!!


can anyone help me out on solutions to these problems,i seem to get calls regarding these issues at least twice a day,thanks!
 
well the first one could mean a problem with the network adapter drivers or there might be a problem with the connection.

the second one means that probably the wireless router is too far from the computer, or there is a connection problem.

what company do you work for?

I get this error the most. Most likely it is not the wireless router causing this problem because I'm always getting excellent signals from it regardless of that message.

Tell them to power down their modem for about 45 seconds. Plug the modem back in the wall socket and let it communicate with the wireless router to initiate DNS and domain Gateway. The PC will usually try to connect again on it's own, but if not then you just have to reconnect to the wireless network they were on before. It works for me. EIther that or their network is out of range or they don't have permission to access the available network due to Mac filtering or whatever filters the router has.

1) could be a driver issue , especially if they are using windows vista , the questions i would ask would be the make and type of the network adaptor . could also be a router proble tho as well i would ask the make of both , then check

2) the router is either faulty , upgrade firmware and the user could be too far away from the router

and my guess is you work for BT
 
ISOwner touch on this a bit for #2, but make sure they don't have passwords on the wireless. Small chance this could be causing #1 as well... but not too likely.
