If you are not using a unique network name (SSID), then it is possible that your wireless computer

Windows XP: Click Start, point to Control Panel, point to Network Connections, and
then select View/Details.
OR
Windows XP: Click Start, point to Settings, point to Control Panel, point to Network
Connections
, and then select View/Details.

Windows Vista: Click Start, point to Control Panel, point to Network Connections,
and then click View Network Status and Tasks.

Leave the network dialog box open while you continue to the next step.

b. Disconnect the power cord from the wireless router. The connection status of your computer

should change to Not Connected.

c. Reconnect the power cord to the wireless router. The connection status should change to

Connected.

If you are unable to get your computer connected to your network, contact the person who set up
your network or the router manufacturer as there might be a hardware issue with either your router
or computer.
If you are able to access the Internet, you can also access the HP Network Assistant at
