wire

Well for some weird reason, I can't connect to my wireless network. My computer detects the wireless card and all that. The green light on my Linksys card says it's on. But when I go to connect to a network, Vista isn't seeing anything. I've tried replugging in the card and all that. I made sure the WLAN autoconfig thing is running. I'm lost and I don't know where to go from here.

First off Is there a wireless hot-spot? If so then are you using the vista intergraded wireless tool?Or the cards independant software,the independant software should work fine

I'm using vista's integrated wireless tool. I don't even think these drivers for the linksys one have their own software. What should I do? It just randomly didn't work.

But I doubt thats the issue because when I look into connecting to the wireless connection, I can see a bunch in my neighborhood. It's just now I see nothing.

If I understood that correctly you can see other wireless routers in your neighborhood, just not your own router?

If that's the case then it's not your computer's fault, it would be with the router. Does the router work when you hardwire to it?

Your router maybe set to invisible where the router doesn't broadcast the name of the router. You may have to go to a computer that is connected to the router and check the settings.

I would try checking into what DHrandy suggested. It was going to be my 1st suggestion. Also, log into it hardwired locally and see if you have mac address filtering on, or something. Vista likes to know if the network is public or private, maybe delete the profile you had for your network and see if that helps

If all else fails....Try hardresetting the router following the manufacturers instructions.

Cant think of anything else.
