The PC does not need Wi-Fi. Why can't I see Wi-Fi? The computer does not connect the router with a cable, but everything works via Wi-Fi

If a laptop does not use Wi-Fi, there may be a number of reasons. However, there is no point in panicking early, as there are effective ways to solve the problem that are available to the skin.

Description of the problem

The prevalence of dartless lines in the visibility of the PC means the problem has become even wider, but there may be a solution.

Emergency access to the Internet can be obtained by connecting your computer to the router via an Internet cable. This type of cable is usually sold complete with a router, but it may be short. You can add the required voltage to the cable at specialized stores.

Connections to auxiliary devices are made via 8P8C connector

This connection method, of course, does not work, since there is no Internet connection in the area at the moment, or the router is faulty. In other cases, the problem will be solved immediately.

The most common reasons

Now, if you already have access to the Internet, you can calmly understand the reasons why your PC does not mark Wi-Fi. The most extensive of them:

• The Internet is down due to an accident on the line;
• faulty router;
• dartless access is enabled on the laptop;
• access is connected, but Wi-Fi is not working;
• The computer marks certain boundaries, but does not know yours.

To troubleshoot the problem, try to eliminate the causes of possible problems step by step:

1. Reconfirm that the problem is not with your ISP. Call the required company. If there is an emergency on the provider's line, you will be clearly informed and given clear terms and conditions.
2. Check if the problem is in the router. It may be technically faulty, so you will have to send it in for repair or replace it with a new one. Otherwise, the Internet will not be burned for such malfunctions.

You may need to reset the router. Remove it from the line, unclip one plug and reconnect. If the problem is not solved, then experiment with adjusting the channels.

Most often problems with Wi-Fi connections occur in Windows 7

Devices may not work through the wrong channel selection. The lowest ones are 12 and 13. Try replacing it with a lower one or selecting the Auto mode.

You can rename the channel. Just don’t vikorize old and simple names. Change the encryption mode.

In any emergency, try to reverse the factory settings

Reset the settings to factory settings.

If this doesn’t help, you’ll be amazed at what’s connected to your Wi-Fi. There are two options here:

• The PC does not identify the desired channel;
• The unit marks other channels, but does not identify yours.

Since the PC does not identify channels in principle, look at what is marked on your new Wi-Fi. On the panel, press the border icon. If Wi-Fi is connected, you will see a color. If this icon is not visible, click on another one to remove drone-free access.

One of the reasons for the lack of connection may be drivers. The smell could have gotten old, for example, because you didn’t update your security software regularly. To verify them, follow these lines:

1. Go to “Start”.
2. Right-click on the “Computer” tab.
3. Click on "Management".
4. In the “Device Manager” window, go to the “Medium Adapters” section.
5. Select the one that has the word Wi-Fi named after it.

Since there is a red icon next to such an adapter, the device does not work. Click on it with the right mouse button and press down.

What you need is not drivers, but special utilities available on the official website of the laptop manufacturer that are responsible for the operation of specific equipment.

If this action is not up to date or there is no such device on the PC, you will have to install a new driver. You can find it on the Internet or search on the disk that comes with your computer.

If you would like to download the driver at any time, you can only download it from the official website of your PC's manufacturer. Otherwise, you may encounter additional problems with your computer from various types of viruses.

Dartless access may not be available through mechanical damage to the Wi-Fi device. Sometimes this occurs during the process of cleaning the PC using a saw or falling device from height. In such a situation, this part must be replaced.

Nuances in dependence on the operating system

Depending on the operating system you are using, you can try to figure out the problem and its medical nuances.

Windows 7

For this system, the most common reasons for incorrect operation of drone-free access are:

• incorrectly set the value of the power adapter;
• The drivers are not working correctly.

In order to check how the droneless adapter works and how it works in the air, you need to go to the Internet. Enter the IP address of your router into the search box and log in to the other page. Further activities:

1. Go to the settings extension and find Wi-Fi.
2. Go to the main settings and check the box next to “Enable Wireless”. If it is not working, the router is stuck. Obviously, change the settings by checking the box.

In almost 80% of cases (with special evidence), the reason for this behavior is the lack of required drivers for Wi-Fi, which is a result of reinstalling Windows on the laptop

If this does not resolve the situation, transfer the remote access module to the PC. For this, you can use the same key FN + F2 / F3 / F4 / F5 (each model will have its own key, experiment with them).

Make sure the droneless access module is disabled.

Windows 10

If the laptop does not support Wi-Fi networks on Windows 10, you will first need to check the following settings:

• adjusting the dartless adapter;
• adjusting the operating system.

To check the Robimo adapter:

1. We go to the “Start” menu, select “Device Manager” and then find the required adapter, whose name has a 108.11n characteristic. If you have not found such a driver, you will need to download and install it.
2. Open the “Powerfulness” tab. As soon as the device is turned on, this input will require information. To press it, press the corresponding button and click “OK”.

If this does not help, change your router settings on the Internet.

Nuances in the storage of a laptop

To understand how to resolve the problem, it is important to take note of the specific brand of your PC.

Dell

To ensure the correctness, turn the drone adapter over. To do this, in the "Start" menu, select the "Device Manager" tab, find the required adapter and change its functionality from the method described above.

HP

On PCs of this model there is a special button. It contains an image of an antenna. Try to disable droneless access by pressing this button, or use the FN and F12 keys.

Asus

On this model, you will need to first check the alignment adapter assembly using the appropriate method. The associated FN and F2 keys can also help.

Lenovo

There are a number of models of this brand that have a special key for enabling droneless access. If your laptop does not have it, quickly select FN and F5.

Why don't you let your laptop run on Wi-Fi?

If you have reinstalled Windows on your laptop and have not installed all the official drivers from the manufacturer’s website, the function keys, which are used for everything, do not apply

If the computer does not interfere with your measurements, the problem can be solved in two ways:

• Restart your router and PC.
• Change the channel on which the router operates.

Perezavantazhennya

To restart the router, turn off the power supply and wait for about a minute, then turn the device off again. Restoring your computer can be done in the most basic way.

Now look to see if there is a need for a connection in the list of those available for connection. You can do this on the PC panel by pressing the left mouse button on the border icon.

Zmina channel

Interruptions in the operation of the drone-free network can occur through those that the PC is working on the same channel with a similar device nearby. For example, your router and router are working on the fifth channel.

In this situation, the insults of the devices create one thing for each other. Thus, one of them may not receive the dartless signal. The decision will be very forgiven - change the channel for your device. Zrobiti can be done in the settings.

If you are having problems with drone-free access to the Internet, immediately connect your laptop to the router via an Internet cable and calmly analyze the situation that has arisen. It’s entirely possible that you simply forgot to plug in the dartless adapter. Or if the problem is more serious, quickly turn off the possible causes of the malfunction - this will help resolve the problem.

There is no such thing as eternal electronic devices, even if the technology begins to malfunction very early, and it is impossible to go wrong. If you can immediately identify the beginnings of problems and deal with them competently, then you can immediately improve the term life mastery.

We’ll try to do it this way ourselves, since the computer won’t start up the router, or uncharacteristic moments of its operation have begun to appear.

Before the start of the normal operation of the router, you must have direct access to the router, and you must know the IP address of the device, its name and the password to enter the setup menu to search for fixes in the setups that have flown.

Let's start with physical manipulation.

Indicator LEDs

First of all, if the computer stops working on the router, you need to look at the indicator panel of the router.

Router indicator panel

Indicators that indicate the life of the router and peripheral interfaces are responsible for burning. If your computer and router are connected to cellular connections behind a patch cord, then the LAN indicator will light up (if the wire is connected to the 1st port, then the 1st port indicator will light up). If they are connected via Wi-Fi, the drone indicator will light up.

If the power indicator does not light up, turn the power supply over, possibly unplugging the power supply unit from the socket, or the plug on the router. Also, using a multimeter, check the efficiency of the life block, perhaps not on fire.

Multimeter

If the living unit is working, but the router indicators do not light up, then, after all, you have done your job, and the time has come to go to the store for a new purchase.

If the indicators tell us that all interfaces are working, but there is still no connection with the computer, we will try to ping it, so that the computer can send a special message to which router is responsible for reporting, so we will confirming that he is “alive” .

To ping, we launch the command line, where we write the command “ping 192.168.1.1.”.

Router ping

Addresses 192.168.1.1. Instructions like a butt, there you need to enter the same address of your router. As a matter of fact, it means that the router and computer are connected, and there are no physical problems. It is necessary to review the adjustments that are available in the other part of the statistics.

Wi-Fi calls

It also often determines the connection between a router and a computer and a wireless Wi-Fi connection.

This can be due to many reasons:

1. Some routers are equipped with a button to turn on/off the droneless module. It is possible to simply turn on Wi-Fi on the router;
2. Also, Wi-Fi will instantly turn on without human intervention, just a firmware “glitch”;
3. There is an antenna or a wire that transmits the signal from the antenna to the router board.

Button for turning off the droneless router module

For the first two options, it is enough to look at the Wi-Fi indicator light - it is not lit. If it’s on, twist the antenna; if it’s hot, try tightening the nut in the mounting area to the router body.

Also, with a drone-free connection, as a result of a microprogram failure, the router’s IP address could “fly off”. Try to connect to another boundary wire so that you can get into the settings that you are talking about.

Menu for setting up the router

Now we’ll try to dig around in the setup of the device. Let's take a look at the descriptions of how to connect to a computer via Wi-Fi. To enter the setup, there is no longer a single method - through an additional method.

Grid wire patch cord

It is connected to the LAN port of the router and the edge card of the computer. With any web browser on your computer, log in to the router’s web interface using the IP address of the router.

Login from the router setup

Enter the account user's name, password and go into setup. Then we can't set up Wi-Fi.

Setting up Wi-Fi

Select the "Wireless" menu, the "Wireless Setting" submenu.

Setting up Wi-Fi

If the indicator on the front panel, which indicates drone-free monitoring, is not lit, then the Enable Wireless Router Radio parameter is visible. Check the box – drone-free extension module, Wi-Fi active. If the checkbox is unchecked, Wi-Fi is disabled. Let's reconfigure to see if the checkbox is ticked.

Let’s also look at the adjusted channel, standard, maximum speed. Also turn the region around - you may end up with Russia.

There are no problems with the adjusted drone part - the firmware may be faulty. We are trying to simply restart the router, having canceled it as a measure of life. If the problem persists, we try to update the firmware.

Firmware updates

First of all, we go to the router manufacturer’s website and download the latest firmware version. We remember the folder where the file was saved (the easiest way is the desktop, after flashing it you can delete it).

Updating router firmware

At the software update window, press the “Browse...” button, and let the explorer show the folder where the file with the firmware from the site will be saved.

Respect! While the update process is ongoing, the router cannot be removed from the network!

And you better not scratch it until the indicator darkening reaches 100%.

Indicator scale for the process of updating the software

After a successful update, the router will reset itself. Obviously, all settings will be factory settings, and connections to the provider and I will have to set up from scratch. There is a high probability that Wi-Fi will be requested after the update.

Finally, I would like to point out that the problem may not be in the router at all, but in the computer.

I wonder what could be simpler, just connect the router to the computer? There are only a couple of hvilins on the right. In some cases, the result may be completely unpredictable, for example, the computer does not start the router, and it is impossible to configure the router parameters. What is there to do with such a situation? Tim, if you want to try to solve the problem on your own, there are a lot of simple rewards to be had. Let’s start with a few words about the possible causes of the malfunction.

Why the computer does not turn on the router: possible reasons

There are a variety of reasons, from a simple incorrect connection to hardware malfunctions, including the router itself, and ports on the computer (physical failures or software failures of the device itself will not be clearly visible).

However, the main reasons why the computer should not connect to the WiFi router are:

• incorrect connection;
• incorrect access parameters;
• availability of border card drivers;
• the inadequacy of the Wi-Fi module;
• the mezzanine is attached.

What works if the computer does not turn on the router when there is a direct connection?

This will solve the situation if the user wants to connect to the router to carry out initial setup via a cable directly. Once all the cables are connected correctly, all connections are missing. Well, don’t mess with your computer router, you might break it. What is it timid?

First of all, if you are sure that all cables are connected correctly, make sure that the address of the router itself is entered correctly in the web browser. Most numbers have 192.168 with two remaining numbers 0.1 or 1.1 (for some non-standard models other addresses may be used).

The address for the entrance can be found on a special sign posted at the entrance to the building. There is also a login and password that must be entered when entering the setup.

If everything is entered correctly, but the router is not visible, perhaps you can restart the router by pressing the On/Off or Power buttons for 10-15 seconds. However, it is best to connect the router to the power supply throughout the same interval. If you don't reset your router on your computer, you can try resetting the router to factory settings. For this purpose, there is a small hole in the bottom of the case, in which there is a clear Reset button.

Checking the correct connection

If the front effects have not been removed, you should check the correctness of the direct connection.

Try inserting the cable into a different socket on the router or performing similar actions on the computer card. If this is not true, it is possible that the reason lies in the damage to the cable itself. In this case, just replace it and try to get back into alignment again.

Connection diagnostics and testing of Ethernet ports

The same situation, if the computer does not turn on the Wi-Fi router, may be associated with a breakdown of the ports themselves. As already mentioned, choose another port or “call” the one before the connection is established.

However, the reason may be due to the hemlock adapter. In this case, you will see that all the necessary drivers are installed in the system (and correctly). If the devices in the network manager are marked with the same icon and a greeting sign, the drivers will need to be reinstalled. Also, as an option, you can install an external device with the upcoming re-installation of the system, if the driver is installed automatically. If you have non-standard data, you will need to restore the original disks or manually install the driver installation file on your hard disk.

To obtain more detailed information, it is necessary to diagnose the connection. This is connected to the section of adapter parameters, which is located in the connection menu, located in the standard “Control Panel”. If problems are detected, the system will notify you of their removal.

Checking the attributes of a dimension

Find out the reason why the computer does not turn on the router when using a wireless connection can be installed in the settings of the connection network.

In this situation, you need to connect to the router directly using an additional cable, set up the drone-free mode and remove the order from the increased broadband SSID (for TP-Link models). In other devices, there may be a point for registering the name of the network, settings for simply registering the network (SSID), or something else. After this device, you need to re-enable it in the manner described above. In addition, it would be bad to work and restart the main computer system (as it seems, not much).

Visnovok

In most cases, guidance methods help correct the situation with connections. If this solution did not help, in order not to replace the problem, you will need to retest the device. It is problematic to earn money independently at home, so it is best to contact some service center. If such results do not give, you will have to run a new diagnostic of the router to detect any faults, and if any are detected, replace the device.

However, as practice shows, the most common problems that occur are incorrect entry of the address and parameters when entering setup, breakdowns of cables and ports, lack of drivers for network cards and wireless modules, as well as the installation of parameters for receiving networks. So I would like one of the recommended methods to help.

A lot of Wi-Fi networks are facing this problem. It’s not surprising, but it’s also very practical for everyone to have a Wi-Fi router in their home or apartment, which allows you to wirelessly connect a variety of gadgets, laptops, smartphones or TVs to the Internet.

It is clear that the problem, if the connection is not visible in the list of available Wi-Fi networks, can be connected not only to the laptop, but also to any other device with wireless connections to the Internet.

Reasons for the lack of required Wi-Fi network in the selection list

It is immediately significant that everything written below is a matter of frustration, if you obviously want one Wi-Fi connection. If the laptop does not depend on the hot Wi-Fi network, then you.

Well, the main reasons:

1. Great distance between the router and laptop;
2. Incorrectly entered.

For the first reason, it may become clearer. To check this, simply go to your router as close as possible and look at the device you need.

If there is another reason (most likely), then verification is required. For this purpose you need mother devices, already connections to your router via Wi-Fi or by phone.

How to go into setting up the router, we wrote in detail.

After you have entered the router settings, you need to go to the section related to Wi-Fi settings. Depending on the router model, it may look like this.

Options for customizing settings that indicate changing the Wi-Fi channel on Tp-Link routers

Channel or Channel is what you need. The values ​​of this option are often Auto or 12 (13).

On the right, channels 12 and 13 are borderline channels, with many Wi-Fi modules installed in smartphones and laptops, they simply cannot be processed. You need to set the “Channel” option to any value from 1 to 11. After this, save all changes and restart the router.

Visnovok

Most often, a laptop or smartphone does not connect to Wi-Fi networks through the installation of a nearby radio channel on the router. These channels are 12 and 13. To correct this situation, it is enough to go into the settings of the router, change the channels to any range 1-11, save the settings and reset the router.

The most common problem with laptops is setting up and connecting to Wi-Fi. Therefore, before proceeding to possible solutions to this problem itself, you first need to check that you have set up your connections properly.

What's the reason?

The malfunction may occur, for example, in routers that are used by the user, or in the operating system itself. The most common reasons why Wi-Fi does not appear or the laptop does not boot may be due to the fact that: the Wi-Fi router is frozen or not connected, there may be various problems with the device that connects to Wi-Fi, Internet access is blocked by a firewall or antivirus, and DHCP is not visible to the IP address.

Troubleshooting

To determine the cause and correct the problem further, you need to check the router. For this purpose, restart the router and notice that the limit does not appear in the list. If this is not the case, then you need to disconnect the hedge cable from the router and move it to the power socket.

You can check whether you are coming to the Internet from your provider or not. If you can’t find the Internet, it means there’s a servant on the right and in the middle, and in other cases it’s necessary. To configure this, you need to go to the address 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1, depending on the router model.

If everything is set up correctly, you will need to update or install drivers for the adapter. You can easily find them on the Internet, but you need to know the model. To do this, you need to open the device panel and select Device Manager from the menu. In the list you need to know the item "Trim adapters". Here you will see a list of all the devices that work on your computer, and in order to find Wi-Fi, select the item where the phrase “Bearless device...” is written. Once all drivers are installed, Wi-Fi connections will appear.

In this case, because these methods do not help solve the underlying problems, the biggest problem lies directly in the device itself, which is able to recognize and connect to the drone-free system. Just to be sure, you can get an inexpensive USB adapter for Wi-Fi or get one from someone you know and install it
