Hello,
You can get the manual from here:

You should see a button on the left side beside the image. The button says driver/manual download. You can also the website to contact MSI if you need their help.


I hope this helps.

Fn+F8 is what you need to use.

Fn+F8 toggles the wireless on and off.

Check you have the latest Wireless drivers:
http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=nbdriver&maincat_no=135&prod_no=1474

There are issues with this netbooks poor drivers..

Install and try again (ensure that you have enabled the wireless)

The wireless switch is not Fn-F10. It is actually Fn-F8.

To enable/disable WLAN, please press "Fn+F11" to execute the device: (then follow below steps accordingly)
Note: there are four stages in all, assumingly both bluetooth and wifi are installed.

First stage : press Fn+F11 = Enable WLAN only
Second stage : press Fn+F11 = Bluetooth On + WLAN Off
Third stage press : Fn+F11 = Bluetooth On + WLAN On
Fourth stage press : Fn+F11 = Bluetooth Off + WLAN Off

After enabling the WLAN, search the Access Point and connect with it. Now, you may use the WLAN.

If this does not work, check if the driver is installed in your computer by going to the device manager. check under network adapters. If the driver is installed, uninstall the current driver and restart the computer.

If the issue still persists, you may download the driver update at the msi website: http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=nbdriver&maincat_no=135&prod_no=1474. Just make sure the driver you're downloading is compatible with yoru operating system

I am having the same problem and am unable to connect my sons msi wind u100 to a wireless router
hope someone can help us

try system restore and chose the date when you we're able to connect to the internet using wi-fi or reinstall your wireless device driver and check for updates.

No Wireless Connection Found in Range

Note: You need to use a computer hardwired to the router to check the wireless settings.

1. Please open any web browser like Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.
2. Connect to the router by typing http://routerlogin.com/basicsetting.htm or http://192.168.1.1 in the address field and click Enter or Return key.
3. A window will prompt for a user name and password. The default username is "admin" and the default password is "password".

Note: If it does not take password as the password, you might have changed it when you have run the NETGEAR Setup CD so please try other passwords. If you cannot remember the password, you need to reset the router and run the Setup CD to reconfigure it.

4. Click the Wireless Settings under Advanced tab.
5. Check the box under Enable Wireless Router Radio and Enable Wireless SSID Broadcast.
6. Click the Wireless Settings under Setup.
7. Change Channel (recommended are 1, 6 and 11).
8. Change the SSID to uniquely identify your network. You might have a similar SSID with your neighbor.

Note: Do not change the SSID if there are already other wireless computers that can connect to the network.

Other factors that you may consider when you are not able to view any available wireless network:

a. Switch for the wireless adapter is turned off
b. Distance between the wireless router and computer
c. Possible wireless interferences

access your router with following link

http://192.168.0.1

then type user name:admin
password is:admin or blank

then enable DHCP.then u can get ip automatically.

then all network members get ip from this router.
configure your router as wep.not wap
dhcp is on.
and dont give advanced security
