I have windows 7 and my d-link PCI adapter is not working. the LED is not on and i cant connect, or even see, any wireless networks and windows 7 says my wireless is disabled. I've tried using the CD to install the drivers again but that hasn't helped.

Hello
You might want to try the latest drivers from the main dlink homepage. I took me the liberty to find them for you.
ftp://ftp.dlink.com/Wireless/dwa556/Drivers/dwa556_drivers_140.zip
You press that link and download it. It's in a zip compressed format. So unless windows can unpack it for you after opening it you will need a decompressing tool like WinZip or WinRar
Once you've downloaded it you can follow this quick guide.

Good Luck! If you still need a hand just post here again.

Local Area Network is missing on Network Connection for window 7

Do you have an Ethernet connection?
1) What does Hardware Manager say about the device ? Does it exist ? Is is 'operating normally'?
2) Can you add the network in the Network Manager ?
3) Do you see the interface when you enter a DOS (Command) window and enter "ipconfig /all ' more"?

Greetings, I am a technician. However, I ran into a confusing issue with my wi-fi. My Encore enlwi-g v2 PCI wireless adapter worked fine on my Windows 7 64-bit system until I bought a new Smilodon case...

Mike, your problem is so clear and crisp... Thank you for the excellent documentation...

Here is the solution...

The wireless PCI card should be detected by any PCI slots, doesnt matter whatever may be the chipset made off...
The Light in the adapter is "OFF", says there is no power supply to the adapter and that is the reason the Wireless card is not detected...
unplug the adapter from the board and clean the PCI slot on board with a soft brush(the Pins in the PCI slot may get in contact with each other if u use any hard materials to clean)...
On the PCI wireless card clean the metallic contact surface (the place where the pci slot comes in contact with) using an ERASER and clean the dusts left by the eraser properly...
Now connect it back and check if the light is getting LIT up on the card...
Then you can also check under device manager either in Network adapters or under other devices...

Sincerely, Manny...
