    I have just reset my sisters Medion MIM2220 laptop back to factory settings. I am trying to get it to connect to my wireless router but failing miserably..

    I have right-clicked the wireless network icon in the lower-right corner of the screen, and all it says is Open Network Connections...

    Can anyone please advise?
