Unable to see the local router Wi-Fi network

I am working on a friend HP All-in-one system that has a Wi-Fi interface. It came with Windows 10 so there has been no upgrade from a previous version of Windows. Some of the System Specification:

HP 23-r119c All-in-One Desktop PC
Intel Core i3-4170T CPU
8 GB of memory
Integrated Intel HD Graphics
Realtek ALC3228 sound
Wireless LAN 802.11b/g/n fetirung 2.4 Ghz 1 x 1 technology
(Shows in device manager as a Realtek RTL8188EE 802.11 bgn Wi-Fi Adaptor)
1TB Disk drive
CD/DVD burner drive

Side note I am not sitting at the system now and have no access. I am trying to see if anyone has seen an issue exactly like that. I did lots of research, seen lots of issues reported that are similar but none that fit my exact symptoms. Most fixes reported for issues where a Wi-Fi network is not showing up did not work for me.

So here it is. The connection to the local Wi-Fi router used to work fine. The name of the Wi-Fi network is BELL500. At some point in time the Wi-Fi network BELL500 disappeared. It does not show when I click on the Wi-Fi icon on the task bar. But other Wi-Fi networks do show up. Here is what I have tried so far.

• 1- Using my own laptop I was able to connect to the local Wi-Fi network BELL500 and had access to the Internet. So router and service provider are fine.
• 2- Downloaded the Wi-Fi adaptor driver from HP and install. To do so I first uninstall the device from the device manager and then ran the installation script I downloaded from HP. The Wi-FI adaptor was created and available network showed up. But the problem persists. Connection is not possible to local Wi-Fi network BELL500 since it is not listed in the available network.
• 3- Perform and sfc /scannow. There was no problem found. The problem is still there, the Wi-Fi network BELL500 does not show up.
• 4- Connected to a Wi-Fi network available from the list that had no security. It connected but it is a guest network and needed more credential to continue that I did not have.
• 5- Enabled my iPhone connection sharing. It showed up on the Wi-Fi list indicated that the service to discover the network also worked fine.
• 6- Tried to add and configure manually using control panel the BELL500 network. Even tried to use a different name. Did not work, never came up as a possible network to connect.
• 7- Shutdown the All-in-One system. Powered off/on the Wi-Fi router and waited for connection to work. Rebooted the All-in-One. There is no change for the local Wi-Fi network BELL500 it still did not show up. Other networks do show up.
• 8- Re-enable my iPhone connection sharing. It appeared on the All-in-One and I made the connection. I was able to get the All-in-One on the internet and it worked fine.

From all that it seems as if the Wi-Fi adaptor on the All-in-One worked fine, the Windows 10 services to discover and make connection to Wi-Fi network work fine and the router also worked fine. But from some weird and unknown reason the local Wi-Fi network BELL500 has disappeared and we are unable to get it back.

I executed a “netsh wlan show all” before and after the reboot. I put the result in 2 files that I have attached. Never saw the BELL500 network. The output are in french. If there is anything you need translated let me know. One thing I found strange on the output is that in the list of SSID there is one with no name. I tried the same command and I never saw an entry like that on my laptop.

One thing I forgot to do while trying to fix the problem was to search the registry to find if the BELL500 is listed anywhere. Is it possible that the Wi-Fi network BELL500 is still present somewhere in the registry, but that the registry entry is in a way that it would not display on the list, be listed with the netsh wlan command, would prevent the network to be rediscover and could not be used. If I found any entries in de registry with the BELL500 network should I delete them? Any idea as to what I should look at or do to try to clear the situation.

Thank you,

Luc

 

Help needed: USB Wi-Fi adaptor issues with vista

Hi all,

just got a brand new shiny laptop (Compaq F560EM) with on board wi-fi and vista home premium 32bit. Onboard Wi-fi module not good enough (low signal strength from WLAN on account of internal antenna) to get decent connectivity to halls of residence WLAN. So purchased a Compoint EVWL-GI-700S usb wi-fi adaptor.

Driver (XP version) installed fine (apparently), the issue I'm having is that the configuration client that came with the device doesn't like Vista, to the extent that the client doesnt recognise that the device is plugged in, even though vista recognises that the device is there, and has it listed under device manager as a Marvell Libertas 802.11b/g wireless lan client adaptor (maybe its the chipset used?), and says its working fine. Also, an unidentified (by the manual) green light is lit up on the usb stick. Stays lit constantly.

The configuration client, loads up ok when vista starts, comes up with a selection of tabs, of which network status is available, amongst other admin type tabs, and site survey is blanked out and not available. According to the manual, the site survey tab is neccessary to locate and connect to a network with the usb adaptor.

With Vista's own network connection facility, the usb adaptor can't find any networks, though the onboard wi-fi system can, so I'm going on the presumption that the usb adaptor needs the client that came with it to do anything.

I've thought that the 3 most likely options are that either a) The configuration client doesnt get on with Vista for whatever reason, b) actually the device driver is NOT doing the job its meant to even though Vista thinks it is, or c) the device is broken.

Anyone got any ideas for a solution to this issue which doesn't involve waiting for microsoft to send out the first service pack for Vista?

Thanks *Smile

 

Wi-Fi Agile Multiband Certification to Enable Intelligent Wireless Networks

Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Agile Multiband is a new certification program from Wi-Fi Alliance that enables devices to utilize Wi-Fi network resources better, and networks to adapt and balance load as network conditions change. Wi-Fi Agile Multiband devices dynamically exchange information about a network environment, enabling devices to make smarter decisions and quicker connections in home, enterprise, and managed network environments. Wi-Fi Agile Multiband delivers new capabilities that provide a better experience with both static use cases, such as streaming a high-definition movie, and mobile use cases such as Wi-Fi calling.




Based on global standards, such as IEEE 802.11 k, v, u, r, and Wi-Fi Alliance defined technologies, Wi-Fi Agile Multiband brings a standardized approach to efficient Wi-Fi network resource management that also ensures interoperability across device vendors. Key benefits of Wi-Fi Agile Multiband include:

• Dynamic monitoring (i.e. exchanging network information): Constant, parallel network information exchange about the Wi-Fi radio environment enables client devices to evaluate the best access point (AP), band, or channel connection, avoiding issues with devices that stick to a particular AP longer than appropriate
• Intelligent steering (i.e. making informed network loading): Mechanisms allow APs to intelligently guide clients to less congested or recommended APs, frequency bands, and channels to balance network traffic and meet other management needs
• Fast network transitions (i.e. authenticating quicker): Faster, secure roaming while traversing a network delivers improved mobility and better experiences with latency-sensitive applications such as voice-over Wi-Fi and mobile video streaming

"Today's Wi-Fi delivers connectivity to services and content for many devices in different environments," said Edgar Figueroa, president and CEO of Wi-Fi Alliance. "Wi-Fi Agile Multiband brings new capabilities that increase network and device performance and ultimately provide a better Wi-Fi user experience."

The first Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Agile Multiband products which comprise the test bed for interoperability certification are:

• Broadcom BCM4361 11ac STA Reference Design
• Intel Home Wi-Fi Chipset-based 802.11ac 4-stream Concurrent Dual Band Router
• Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265
• Marvell 802.11ac Wave2 Wi-Fi Test Bed Evaluation Kit
• MediaTek MT7621A+MT7615 802.11abgn/ac Ref. AP
• Ruckus R710 Access Point
• Ruckus ZoneDirector 1200 Controller
• Qualcomm mobile Wi-Fi AC2 chipset
