I am a college student who normally has his laptop online via a wired connection while at school. But I can also take my laptop home, where I have a wireless router, and have a good wireless connection. I have done this several times, and I have had wireless connections at school as well. Something happened to my computer, though, and I don't know what. It's as if I never even had a wireless adapter in my computer. When I view my network connections, there is not even an icon for a wireless connection. There is not a link that says "View Available Wireless Networks." Even the "Connect to" submenu from the Start Menu is gone (I used to be able to select the wireless option from that submenu). My wireless adapter does not even show up in the device manager. The HP Wireless Assistant says my WLAN is turned off or disabled. Unfortunately, I cannot find any option to enable it.
My laptop is an HP Pavilion DV6000. It has a built-in wireless adapter, and it has always worked in the past. I do not know what is causing this problem.
This is not a problem with the wireless router in my home. Another computer successfully connected via the same router.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this so I can get my wireless back up and working again? Thanks in advance.
