<0> laptop
<1> ok then its minipci
<1> right....
<1> in device manager do you see the card listed ?
<0> oh okay
<0> yes I do,
<0> looking at device manager it seems like the drivers are installed properly no red x's or question marks
<1> does it appear as 'ok' or 'cannot start this device'
<1> ok
<1> if you install the broadcom drivers for it, do you get any errors
<0> no
<1> do you want me to look at it ? (remotely)
<1> if so install vnc and i'll connect and see whats up with it
<0> I would let you but I am a paranoid guy
<1> nothing wrong with being a paranoid gay
<1> anyway, do you see any icons for it in the system tray ?
<0> yes I do
<0> lol
<0> i appreciate the help
<1> is the windows wireless config service started, yes/no
<0> yes its started but when I open it up, it says another software is managing the wireless connections.
<0> so I am guessing the broadcom drivers are doing its thing
<1> ok
<1> is there a wireless LED to indicate wireless on/off on your laptop
<0> There is a button for it, but when I click it there is no light that goes on or off
<0> but on the diagnostics, it says it p***es the LED test.
<1> the led will only come on when wireless is properly enabled and functioning
<1> if you right click on the broadcom applet in the system tray, what options do you see, do you see 'enable'
<0> oh okay i thought the damn thing was broken
<0> i see, help, status, open utility, and hide
<0> you think it might have to do with the firewall?
<1> nothing to do with the firewall
<0> ok
<0> if the drivers in control panel seem okay, that probably means the card is working right?
<1> hold on and i'll get a laptop with broadcom in it...
<0> ok thanks
<2> hello777: you don't have a stupid button on the side of the laptop, that disables the WIRELESS function?
<2> and if you press it, you'll activate it, and VOILA everything is functioning again.
<1> if it was disabled it wouldnt appear in device manager
<1> trust me
<0> jediguy no i looked for that button
<1> ok i have a laptop here with the broadcom 1450 card in it
<1> windows is managing the connection
<0> ok
<0> i mean i've tried removing all the wireless drivers and reinstalling it still no luck
<1> in device manager what card is it listed as
<1> broadcom what
<0> let me check
<0> Broadcom 802.11 b/g wlan
<1> thats its capability, not the model
<0> how do I check the model?
<1> nm
<1> i'm installing broadcoms driver now
<1> to see what its like...
<0> ok thanks
<1> ok if you right click on the broadcom system tray applet
<1> choose 'open utility
<1> is 'enable radio' ticked ?
<0> ok i am in the utility now
<0> where is enable radio?
<1> under 'wireless networks'
<1> what options do you see
<0> i see multiple tabs, wireless networks, link status, site monitor, diagnostics, information
<1> under 'wireless networks' <-
<1> is 'enable radio' ticked ?
<0> i see, add, imports export, show wireless icon in tray
<1> hmm ok
<1> click throught the other tabs
<1> look for 'enable radio'
<0> nothing in there
<0> my driver version is: 3.100.65.2
<1> ok double click on the broadcom wireless applet
<1> what do you see now
<0> the icon in the system tray?
<1> yes
<0> the title is broadcome wireless utility
<0> wireless networks, link status, site monitor, daignostics, information tabs
<0> i dont see anything helpful in this applet
<0> I really appreciate your help though
<1> ok try this again
<1> right click on the applet, what choices do you see apart from 'open utility'
<0> I know its hard trying to figure out what I am doing wrong remotely without remote ***istance
<0> help, status, open utility and hide
<1> it would be much easier over vnc
<1> click on status
<1> what does it say
<0> it says not ***ociated
<0> signal strenght none
<1> do you have a wireless ACCESS POINT
<0> yes
<1> is it configured already ? with wep ?
<0> yes its configured with wpa
<0> i tried manually entering the information in even thought it didnt come up after having it broadcast the ssid
<1> can you remove the WPA on it, so its just 'wireless' with no encryption whatsoever
<0> yes i tried that, it still doesnt come up
<0> i tried adding the ssid manually and connecting to it with no encryption protection
<1> so you never see the AP listed in 'view available wireless networks' ?
<0> but it didnt connect
<0> i see view available networks, but it never finds anything after i click on it
<1> do any other devices connect successfully to your wireless AP
<0> no
<0> i havent tried any other devices
<0> look I think its a driver malfunction issue or something
<0> maybe I dont have the latest drivers.
<0> I really appreciate your help.
<0> I think I am gona go uninstall the drivers, do a reboot reinstall it
<0> if that doesnt work, ill go to sleep and maybe call up broadcom tommorow see if they have a workaround or something
<0> thank you so much
<0> the next time i run into someone on these channels who needs help, ill take the time to help them out like u took the time to help me out... thanks alot!
