PC Cannot Locate Wireless Router

Jun 06, 2006 3 Replies

I currently use a PC and Mac on my wireless network. The Mac is working fine however the PC cannot find the network all it can find is a network with a blank name however the network is named and the Mac can find it without any problems. The wireless network was set up from the PC and strangely it stopped working after a windows update. The router is a belkin adsl router and I am using a belkin usb network adaptor for my pc.


Does anyone know why it has stopped ?



I'd guess USB drivers. I've never had good luck with USB WiFi dongles, but at the very least you should update the drivers.

Does it work if plugged into a wired network port on the router?

I've fixed it ! Switched everything off pulled everything out of the phone sockets and then it work when I resetted the router !

You should just say that you were lucky.
