Hp Pavillion G6 wifi do not work
I found problems with realtek card in my G6 pavillion. My husband ordered brand new Broadcom netwroking card with bluetooth and installed it in hope to fix the wlan issue. How ever after fresh installing broadcom wifi drivers, we cannot enable wlan at all. Bluetooth works like a charm but still wlan cannot be enabled at netwroking adapters where it can be seen as greyed out. Whe we try to enable it windows 7 64bit either says: Windows found unexpected error or does not say anything at all and keeps the adapter greyed out. If I try widnows problems finder it says windows expierenced unexpected error with Broadcom 801.11 driver.
Does Broadcom wifi drives support 64bit system at all or what is the possible reason why my adapters bluetooth works out of the box but not wifi drivers?
Hi Anu_Helminen,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP Pavilion g6 and WiFi not working. Here is a link to try opening the Device Manager by clicking Control Panel. In Device Manager, locate the network adapter, and then double-click the device name. Click the Driver tab, and disable the old Driver. Restart the computer and the new adapter should be able to be enabled. Only 1 wireless adapter can be enabled at a time.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement. -

If you've followed all the instructions then there are a few good recommendations for what to do next in the last step.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

Wifi Sync not working on iOS 6 and iTunes 10.7 with iPhone 4S
I am running Windows 7 64-bit but WiFi Sync is not working on either my iPhone 4S or my wife's iPhone 4S. Worked fine before upgrading. All settings look correct in iTunes 10.7 and on our iPhones 4S's. Already tried uninstalling iTunes and all associated Apple programs (Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Application Support, etc) and reinstalling iTunes but no help. Temporarily disabling Norton Firewall did not help. If I hook up either of our two 4S phones via USB wire, they Sync and Backup fine. Just WiFi Sync not working. Can't initiate sync from iPhones because button is ghosted stating it is waiting for PC to be present. Phones don't show up under Devices in iTunes unless hard-wired via USB cable. Any suggestions?
I am getting sync issues too (although on OSX) - seems like others are getting issues too:

My iPod Touch 3rd gen is screwed up the backlights screwed and the Wifi is not working its showing no wifi!
See:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
For backlight
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My iPHONE 5 wifi is NOT working when am 3 feet away from router while my iPhone 4s has full signal all the time.Please help.
The problem would seem to be in the firewall in your router. Have you tried disabling it? I assume you've updated the router firmware, right? Consider bypassing the ISP provided router (using it as a modem only) and unsing another device such as an Aiport Express.

when i update my software to 6.1.3(10B329)to I phone 4s the wifi is not working and not auto join the network that i have already connected to
First, grow up. Just because YOUR phone isn't working, doesn't mean Apple put out bad software. I've not had any difficulty, nor has anyone else I know. And just how is Apple risking lives with Bluetooth kits not working? It's YOUR decision to talk on the phone or text and drive. Not Apple's.
We're users here, volunteering our time to help others. Posts like yours, which are whiny and ranting, simply means we're likely to ignore you and not provide you with any help. Not to mention, it makes you look absolutely foolish.
Further making you look foolish is the fact that you haven't even asked a technical support question, nor have you provided anyone here with any troubleshooting steps you might have taken, including those recommended in the user guide.
Good luck getting help.

Wifi does not work correctly on iPad Mini w/ Retina display
I've found that Wifi does not work properly on the iPad mini w/ Retina display.
Some background: I own three iPads (iPad mini w/ retina display, iPad mini, and iPad 3rd gen), an iPod touch 5th gen, and a Macbook Air, and use them all frequently with my pocket Wifi router.
None of them exhibit any Wifi problems whatsoever except for my iPad mini w/ retina display.
Here are the details:
In the middle of using Wifi with my pocket Wifi router, the Wifi connection will abrubptly drop, then reconnect. After the Wifi reconnects, it is no longer able to connect to the internet (even though Wifi itself is connected).
Once the iPad mini w/ retina display's Wifi gets into this state, the following may or may not restore WiFi temporarily:
Restart the device
Reset network settings
Yet, even if connectevitiy is restored, the problem will happen again within minutes.
When the iPad mini w/ retina display gets into this state, the Wifi on my iPod touch, other iPads, and on my Macbook Air work perfectly fine, so I know the problem is not with my Wifi device or it's connection, but specifically with the iPad mini w/ retina display
Note:
The iPad mini w/ retina display never has any issues with my home or work Wifi networks. The problem only happens when connected to my pocket Wifi device. Yet, all of my other iOS devices and my MacBook Air work perfectly with my pocket Wifi device, therefore I know the problem is not with the pocket Wifi device, but with the iPad mini with retina display.
Solutions:
Resetting the iPad mini w/ retina display to factory settings does not solve the problem
Resetting network settings on the iPad mini w/ retina display does not solve the problem
I have even replaced my original iPad mini w/ retina and got a new one. Yet, the new device exhibits the exact same behavior as the original device.
Conclusion:
I know this is not a hardware problem (since it happened with both my original as well as replacement device).
I know this is not a problem with my pocket WiFi router, since it works perfectly with all of my other iOS devices and MacBook Air.
Therefore, this must be a software / firmware bug with the iPad mini w/ retina display. Apple will need to fix this in a future software update.
Has anyone else seen this problem?I too have experienced this issue over the past two days... I have a 16gb ipad mini retina, for reference. I bought the device one week ago, and had not experience any issues at all until bringing my device to work. I logged into my work's enterprise level wireless network both yesterday and today, maintained normal wifi capabilities for 2-4 hours each day, and was then randomly dropped, both days. I tried hard resets, resetting my network settings, airplane mode, etc. Nothing has worked. I am still offline on my ipad mini retina.
My iPhone 5 is sitting right next to my iPad mini retina. The iPhone is currently connected to the same very network, and has been for the past two years. I have never lost connection on my iPhone's wifi, just my iPad mini retina.
This must be some kind of bug, as it does not sound like a hardware nor network issue.
Hopefully they fix this in 7.1. -
My WiFi is not working on my ipod touch third gen. The wifi option in setting is blanked out so i am unabole to select it. I have tried restored it and resetting network connections. Also the battery life is very low. How do i fix this????????????
If a restore did not fix it, you have a hardware issue--possible bad wi-fi radio.

Thanks in advance for the help....
Cheers!!!You said you used every way... there are only 3 ways.. usb from cumputer cable... standard wall charger through USB connection ( Mini USB port ) and the Magnetic quick charger which is the same as the quick charger docking station.. if the USB Mini port is no longer valid ( look forward to that being the condition if not now , then soon ) this would be a result. USB port is a slow charge anyways... not the proper solution... EVER. The more use the USB mini mort gets the sooner it will be a non viable option... should ONLY be used tor Balckberry Desktop conection use...
Let us all know if this is the case.. you can buy an Magnetic quick charger or docking station ( which is pretty cool ) on e bay for 8 or 9 dollars.. Let us know how long you have had this unit and if you think you have abused the USB connection port... once you get the magnetic 3 pin connector to charge the unit. -

My wifi is not working. It has no indication. I am living in Indonesia but I bought my iphone from apple online store. Can anyone help me how to fix my problem?
The No Service means there is a problem with cellular service. You mention wifi in your title. Which is it you are having trouble with? What happens when you switch on and off as you state in your post? Are you saying that wifi does not connect while at home either?
