Thank you Judy, Have you any idea where the button may be? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Judy in Ocala Sent: 21 October 2006 15:05 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [GEN-COMP-TIPS] Wireless network If you have a built-in or plug in network card on your new laptop, it should find the network by itself. When I go to my daughter's house, all I have to do is turn on my laptop, and it automatically finds her network. The same is true if I go to a coffee shop or hotel with wireless access. However, my HP Pavilion laptop has a button that enables/disables my wireless capability. When I first set up my wireless network, it was a while before I discovered that button. If you have the same, be sure it's enabled.

I have info on it, but all I can seem to find is how to reinstall broadband, or configure the router, but it says that only needs configuring once. Can anyone help please?

My switch is on the side of my laptop. I could not get my wireless to work and, somehow, that switched had gotten turned off. This is a Toshiba laptop.

Hi Pat, the one I'm trying to get going is a Fujitsu, I don't know why they can't issue them with instructions any more, there are 2 switches on the bottom of it, I think ones to release the battery, and the other seems to knock the comp off. -----Original Message----- From: gen-comp-tips-[email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Pat D.

Thanks Maureen, yes it makes sense, but I still can't find it Bob, I gave that a go, but it won't let me key some info in, so that's a no goer :) -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of MJ Mann Sent: 21 October 2006 15:24 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [GEN-COMP-TIPS] Wireless network On 10/21/06, June <[email protected]> wrote: > Thank you Judy, > Have you any idea where the button may be? > June, I'm not Judy <g> My 'button' is at the top, above the F keys, next to the power button.

On mine it's on the frame of the keyboard, above the F1, F2, etc., along with the power button, speaker button and a few other customized buttons. It's lighted, if that helps.
