Wireless not working

Hi guys. It's been a while and I've been busy.

Here's the problem: We recently got a wireless network, which I set up, and it worked fine, until two days ago. One of our computers (we have three, two desktops and one laptop) suddenly disconnected and wouldn't connect again. I thought like wtf, and rebooted, thinking that it may solve the problem. However, when the machine started again, it didn't find the network we're supposed to connect to altough it found the neighbours network. The two other computers can still find the network, they can connect and it all works fine. Despite of this, i decided to turn the wireless thingy off and on again. Still no change, two computers connect, the third wont. I tried to reinstall the network card, but it didn't work either.

To sum up, we have three computers, two connect to the network, and the third wont even find it. Any ideas?

    Hi jokke,

    Try the wireless network adapter on one your other computers and see if it works or not.

    It may have gone bust and it has happened to me in the past and had to get a new one.

    Thanks, i'll try that. It's brand new, not a month old, and I installed it like two weeks ago, so it should not.... but I'll try.

    You're welcome jokke :)

    It's good to see that the adapter is fine and it was just a case of changing your router's frequency :thumbsup:
