DV2000 wireless network issues

I've bought this Laptop a little over a week ago and I've been nothing but happy with it's performance up to this point. I should state that I've already had the internet hooked up through the wireless before this incident. My problem occurred yesterday while browsing and my internet cut out without any reason. When I tried to reconnect it would say It cannot find any wireless devices. I know it's not just my router because I can no longer pick up my neighbors signal which I was able to get before. I tried un and reinstalling the wifi driver but to no avail.

I was told it could be the network card that is toast, But I'm not sure, I'm not exactly the most computer inclined person.

Does anybody have any suggestions?

 

Make sure you didn't accidentally flip the WiFi kill switch.

Beyond that, see if your notebook is on this list:

If you are running any Anti-virus / Internet Security software try exiting it (turn it off) to make sure its not blocking access.

Edit: Hmmm, after thinking about it the AV/IS programs would just block access, you should still be able to SEE the networks. Oh well, worth a try.

 

if unstalled any softw
re that will be using your usb port to output some signal like an external sound card try uninstall it and you could also try unistall the driver and then reboot.
