I'm having a really really difficult time connecting to ANY wifi connection on my SYNET07526. I have several laps tops in my home which are connecting but I can't get my netbook to.

It's possible that the wireless card is no longer working and may need to be replaced, or it could infact be simpler than that...check your drivers and make sure that they are updated, you can also uninstall and reinstall the driver to see if you're able to pick up your network connection then. Since you have other working computers in the home connected to the network you can go to the support site of your laptop brand that isn't working and download the latest driver onto a usb and reinstall it. If that fails then again it may be the wireless card that needs replacing. You can go to ebay and see if you can find a seller of a wireless card that matches yours but i only suggest this if you're familiar with disassembly and reassembly of your laptop. If that may be too much for you you can always purchase a wireless usb adapter from bestbuy, staples, office depot or store similar and that should get you back online and connected to your network...Hope this helps

I have just bought a Google Android Tablet 7 inch and we are having trouble connecting WIFI. We've connected a different tablet and my daughters ipod touch with no problems as well as many lap to

True to the above.. also if you have tried to connect several times you may want to delete the saved Wi-Fi connections an start again. Example.. Open Wi-Fi connections and find for network. If you already have it saved, click"forget" then retype your credentials.

New to wireless networking, never used before. Purchased a dlin dir615 router for my home and also to be able to connect our new archos 101 tablets at home. I followed the setup disk to connect the router...

Have you updated your firmware on your Archos 101? If you can get to a public wifi hotspot like at a McDonalds or Starbucks you should be able to download the latest firmware (you can force the tablet to check for it by going to Settings - About Device - Firmware Update).
The latest firmware included several fixes for WiFi issues that previous firmware versions struggled with.
I would try that, attempt to connect again at home, and if it's still not working switch your troubleshooting focus to the router itself.

What do I need to make a wifi hot spot for my lap

In order to create an effective Wi-FI hotspot in your home or place of business you will need the following:

1.) A broadband internet connection, such as DSL or cable.

2.) A wireless router, Linksys makes a decent one but the brand is not really relevant for our purposes.

3.) Your laptop must have a wireless adapter on it. If it did not come with one, you can purchase one that will plug in to a USB port.

4.) That should do it, though configuring one can be tricky if you've never done it before. Post if you need some more help with it.

How do i use my built in wireless connection to connect to the internet,please.

make sure that your wireless or wifi light is on,you may try to press Fn and F2 at the same time to enable or swith on wireless..if wifi is already on,try going to start >> control panel >> network connections,go to wireless network connection and double click it, it will give you a list of wireless network,or right click and then "view available wireless network", if you get an error that windows cannot configure wireless connection,go to start >> all programs >> loo for either dell wlan utility or intel pro wireless, by opening that app,it will also search for wireless network in range,just double click on the network name where you want to connect and you sould be connected provided that "wireless network" doesnt have encryption like wpa or wep key..if your connecting to your home network,you should have wireless router at home and wireless is enabled on the router.

When connecting to my home wifi with my lap top i loose conection every 4 or 5 minutes

What type of modem or hub are you using? Could be firewall shutting down connection, or some else using your connection if the wireless network isn't secured with a WPA or WEP key(password). Let me know to solve your problem.
