There is a difference between Wi-Fi being on and Wi-Fi being connected. In Settings you can turn on Wi-Fi. All this does is turn on the Wi-Fi radio receiver.
With the receiver turned on you should then be able to view a list of Wi-Fi routers. You will probably see a little lock towards the bottom of the virtual radio signal symbol. These locked Wi-Fi stations cannot be connected to unless you have the right password to log onto them. Most people these days have secured their Wi-Fi routers so unauthorized folks cannot use them.
If you are using your own home router or wireless hotspot from a telecom, you will still have to select it from the list of Wi-Fi routers shown and click connect. If you haven't already entered a password, you will have to enter one.
This can all be done from them Charms menu that slides out on the right. Click Settings and Wi-Fi available.
I do not believe you can get free internet for laptop unless you are using a public wi-fi service. If your laptop has got a wireless interface then you can scan for available wi-fi networks and then select an unsecured one with the most strong signal. Some public wi-fi hot spots give you a temporary code to use. Make sure you have a strong virus protections software when you use free internet and try not to use it for banking services unless you have a very secure banking website with encryption keys and devices.
Hi,
Could be multiple reasons
Check the signal type
Play around with the Channel and see what connects better
Check the server time out
Ensure u dont have a limitation on number of IPs
Connect without wifi password, change type if works
ome wireless networks based on the 802.11b or 802.11g standards transmit their signal in a narrow radio frequency range of 2.4 GHz. Various other electronic devices in a home, such as cordless phones, garage door openers, baby monitors, and microwave ovens, may use this same frequency range. Any such device can interfere with a Wi-FI home network, slowing down its performance and potentially breaking network connections.
The 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi signal range is divided into a number of smaller bands or "channels," similar to television channels.Many wireless products ship with a default Wi-Fi channel of 6. If encountering interference from other devices within the home, consider changing the channel up or down to avoid it. Some Wi-Fi channel numbers overlap with each other. Channel 1 uses the lowest frequency band and each subsequent channel increases the frequency slightly. Therefore, the further apart two channel numbers are, the less the degree of overlap and likelihood of interference.
If this won't work, Then consider buying a new wireless router as your current is deemed broken.
You can secure your wireless network wit WEP or WAP code. For that Connect your router to computer with ethernet cable then you can access it with following default link. http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 For belkin router http://192.168.15.1 or http://192.168.2.1
If you are not able to access it with above ip then check your computers ip address gateway ip is your router ip try with it. Then it ask for user name and password. Type user as "admin" and password as "admin" or "password" or blank. Then you can see configuration page of router. Click
on wireless settings then enable WEP Security then add WEP code .It is
your password to connect wi fi.Then save settings and restart router. Then you can connect your wi fi network with that code. Thanks for using FixYa.
ok first install your wi fi network adapter driver in computer also if you have laptop then there is switch for wi fi on it. Then go to my ntwork polaces there you see your wi fi network.
Also check your wi fi enabled in router . Let me know
