After i restarted i am unable to see wifi connections. I think initial wifi driver gone.
Again i connect through LAN and try to update. It is not updating.
plz help me. It is structed here.

Hello @Shyamiiit,
Welcome and thank you for posting on the HP Support Forums.
Lets see if we can get your missing Wifi back and running fine.
First and foremost don't panic we can do a simple operation called " System Restore"
This is a tool built into the Windows operating system. It allows you to return you system to an earlier date and time, much like a computer time machine.
Unfortunately I do not have any information about your system. So I am going to provide you with a few links so that you can do this process. If for what ever reason this does not solve the problem there are a couple of steps we can try. None the less if you can please post your full model and product number. This link will help you find that information.
How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Now for the system restore links.
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows Vista)
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8)
So all we need to do is run the system restore and pick a day that things where still running normally.
The notebook will do a few things look like it has shut down and then bring itself back do not panic and it may take some time depending on how far and how much info needs to be restored.
Please let me know how this goes. Post back and if things work out great please click on the solution so that others may find a resolution to their issue.
Again thank you for using the HP Support Forums and looking forward to hearing from you.
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
Also be sure to mark my post as “Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others who face the same challenge find the same solution.

Wifi adapter in Windows 7 losing wifi connection

Hi,
a problem occurs while i'm running windows 7 64bit bootcamp on my mpb 13" late 2013.
It's with the broadcom 802.11ac network adapter, driver from bootcamp installation. Even though signal strength varies from 3 to 5 bars, it happens every now and then that i lose connection. Right clicking connection and repairing doesn't work. I can fix it by moving towards my wifi router making signal strength excellent. (this is rather annoying, and should not be necessary)
No such problem in OSX, wifi connection always fine.
Is there some magic setting in device manager (there's a list of parameters that I don't comprehend) with which I can prevent this from happening?
Cheers

Hi Axel,
Now that you know your local network works correctly for a computer not connected to internet or intranet, you have to do this:
1- For "No Connection" error (it is not necessary for the sap system to work), it's normal.
Create a local intranet with a 2nd computer if possible and make a configuration for home network after you will see "Connected"
2-Use of Pc hostname
You must configure the "profile parameters" by using transaction RZ10 and activate services (it's not easy, you have to take your time).
3- Webdynpro
To see the result of the webdynpro appli, you may know that not all web browser versions are compatible. The recent browsers don't work, use iexplorer8 or mozilla but not google ==> you will solve the problem of "timeout".
After that:
Activate the "internet communication framework" by using Transaction SICF. It takes you to "Maintain Services" and then fill Hierarchy Type ==>services, execute to reach at this step:
default_host/sap/bc/gui and icf ( If you've installed sap java, you will see both sap and sap_java)
do a mouse right click and select "Activate Service" and choose activate all.
You can now test the sample via web browser by using locahost.
Best regards.

Problem with wifi adapter

Good morning, my name is seyi, i have a challenge with the wifi adapter of my system, my wifi adapter sees wifi network around, but does not connect to any of them, please how do i correct this problem?
The system is a hp 2000-369WM, and it uses a Ralink RT5390 wifi adapter. Thank you

Good evening,
Many of them, do you know which one is yours ? Unless they are free otherwise you can't connect to your neighbor/neighbour networks.
Regards.

How do I get a 3rd party WiFi adapter to be recognized as default WiFi?

I have a really great USB WiFi adapter that unfortunately does function the same as the PCI-e WiFi adapter. Essentially I have to connect to networks with the software that came with the adapter (which is really good) and I cannot use the status bar WiFi icon. This isn't much of an issue but unfortunately this means that AirDrop does not recognize this device either. I must turn on the PCI-e adapter (which is practically broken) to use AirDrop. Is there a way that I can make my USB adapter (Alfa AWUS036NHR using Realtek RTL8192C chipset) act as an integrated adapter?
I realize that
defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser BrowseAllInterfaces 1
will get AirDrop to work on all interfaces, but I'm really wondering if I can make Mac accept my adapter as "WiFi" under networks

Something.....a Mac or PC will need to have a 5.x version of AirPort Utility installed on the computer.
Perform a factory default reset on the Time Capsule by powering it off for a few minutes. Then, hold in the reset button first and keep holding for an additional 10-12 seconds while you simultaneously plug the power back into the Time Capsule. Release the reset button after the hold period and allow a full minute for the Time Capsule to restart to a slow, blinking amber light.
Open up AirPort Utility on the computer, select the Time Capsule and click Manual Setup
Click the Base Station tab below the row of icons to type in a device name and password that you want to use for the Time Capsule, set Time Zone, etc.
Click the Wireless tab next to the Base Station tab
Hold down the option or Alt key while you click on the Wireless Mode setting box
Select the Join a wireless network setting
Select the name of the wireless network
Enter the password for the wireless network
Verify the password
Click Update to save the settings
Note....everything here assumes that the router that provides the wireless network is using WPA2 Personal security, which is the default setting for the Time Capsule.

Qualcomm atheros ar9485 802.11b/g/n wifi adapter

Hello, I do not appear on the computer wifi 5
Is qualcomm atheros ar9485 802.11b / g / n wifi adapter also supports wifi network 5?

Hi, Do you mean 5GHz ? No "qualcomm atheros ar9485 802.11b/g/n " does not support 5GHz, you have to live with this. Many new devices still use 2.4GHz and I think this make take few more years. Regards.

Looking for an 802.11AC Wifi adapter for MSI GE60-0NC

I want to buy an 802.11AC Wifi module for my MSI GE60-0NC to replace the 802.11N adapter it ships with. It must be compatible with windows 8.1 (as the one it shipped with has serious issues unless I disable N and run it as a G adapter). Do not want to use an external USB adapter either. Is there a compatibility list somewhere or does anyone know of an adapter which will suit these requirements?

For my GE60-2OC i bought an Intel Centrino Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 + Bluetooth, it works perfectly.
this card need 2 antenas, (there is 2 antenas in the GE60), and just download the drivers and install Intel drivers.

USB wifi adapter can only handle one request or socket at a time

I have a usb wifi adapter that I bought recently. The strange thing is that if I'm doing only one thing that is using the network (e.g. downloading a file) it works good and fast. But say I'm downloading a file and I do ANYTHING else that uses the network (e.g. just opening a browser at google.ca), the download comes to a stop. Then if I close the browser, the download starts up again a couple seconds later, good and fast.
Another example is, say I'm in a Google Hangouts (video chat) session. As long as that is the only thing I have running, the chat works fine. If I open a second browser window, then the chat gets super choppy and pretty much un-usable until I close the second window.
So basically it seems like I can have only one open socket at a time, or else it can handle only one request at a time. Also, most webpages open very slowly as a result because the browser only seems to be able to download one static file at a time (e.g. js and css files needed by the page).
I'm sure it's a problem with the usb wifi adapter because I didn't have these problems when I was on a wired connection, and I have other devices using wifi (e.g. laptops and tablets) that don't have this problem either.
Rather than paste a bunch of output from commands, please kindly tell me what to run in order to gather any useful info.
Thanks,
Edit: The adapter is an ASUS USB n-53 (N600).

"ip link set wlp3s0 up" doesn't turn on wifi adapter

So I'm installing Arch on a MacBook Pro 8,2, and I've managed to wrangle EFI into booting everything just fine for me, and I'm trying to get wifi working.
I got the firmware and drivers installed for the Broadcom 43xx chip, and am loading the correct kernel modules.
So if I run
# ip link list
I get the following output (trimmed to relevant entry for brevity):
3: wlp3s0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000
link/ether b8:8d:12:2b:ee:76 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
If I then run
# ip link set wlp3s0 up
and then ip link list again I get the following output:
3: wlp3s0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000
link/ether b8:8d:12:2b:ee:76 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
As you can see the wifi adapter isn't going up at all.
The relevant output from dmesg appears to be:
[ 150.794688] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp3s0: link is not ready

Missing Broadcom Wifi Adapter on Windows 8.1

Last night, I was successfully able to dual-boot Windows 8.1 onto my late 2013 Mac Book Pro with Retina. I made sure to download the latest support software for Windows. No problems there, as far as I know.
However, I am unable to connect to wifi on the Mac Book when running Windows 8.1. The troubleshooter is unable to find any issues, and I have gone into settings to make sure that airplane mode is turned off.
I believe the problem may have something to do with my Network adapters. Following online instructions, I opened up the Device Manager and looked at my Network adapters. Supposedly, I should find a Broadcom wifi adapter here so I can update its drivers, but there is no such adapter in the list. Instead, I just see two Bluetooth Device adapters.
This is really confusing, because wifi works just fine when running OSx on the Mac Book. So I'm guessing I must have some kind of wifi adapter that Windows 8.1 can't seem to locate, or something along those lines.
So, my question is: what should I do if I do not see a wifi adapter in my device manager on Windows 8.1? Do I have the adapter, and it's just invisible because its drivers are out of date, or is there some other issue?
Thanks in advance!

Ah, that did the trick! Since I plugged the USB flash drive into the D drive, the path for me was:
This PC/ WININSTALL (D:)/ BootCamp/ Drivers/ Broadcom
This folder had six different .exe's, but since I installed Windows 8.1 64 bit, I ran BroadcomWirelessWin8x64.exe. This installed the driver in just a few seconds, and now the Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adapter shows up in my Device Manager underneath Network Adapters.
So, if anyone dual-boots Windows onto their Mac Book and can't seem to find the Broadcom wifi adapter in the device manager, don't worry! It isn't missing, it's just not showing up until you run the exe for the drivers it needs.
Thanks turbostar! I really appreciate it.
PS - I meant to click 'this solved my question,' but I accidentally clicked 'this helped me' instead. Sorry about that! First day on the site haha.

WIfi adapter issue

Hi,About a month ago I faced an issue regarding wifi adapter. The problem is solved after contacting hp techinician. They replaced my wifi adapter with a new one. When I bought the laptop I have ralink adapter(not sure with model number) after complaining they replaced it with realtek RTL8723be 802.11 b/g/n adapter.Today I updated my OS to windows 10, now I am unable to turn on my wifi adapter. I installed thewifi adapter driver from this link http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=ob_134477_1 but it didnt work. I tried hp support assitant and it is not showing wifi driver. Please solve my problem as soon as possible

Hi ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP 15-r033tx Notebook and issues with the Wireless not responding. In your Device Manager remove all Wireless Lan Adapters.Restart the Notebook. You should see the the Mediatek (Ralink) wireless LAN listed there now. Right click and see if you can update the drivers. If no, here is a link to the Drivers page for Windows 10 and your product.
Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that need updating. It does have a built in Wireless assistant. Hope this helps. Thanks.

Windows 10 wifi adapter problems

Ater installing and upgrading from windows 7 to 10 I couldnt been able to connect to any wifi networks at all on my laptop. When I try updating Ralink RT3290 802.11 bgn wifi adapter it says im running the latest drivers. The adapter is entierly disabled when I try to enable it in the network connections nothing happens.

I think I found something that may help. Did you have Cisco VPN software installed before you upgraded? I did, and I think that caused the issue. Since I rolled back, I won't know for sure. I'm going to do a fresh install of Windows 10 this afternoon and see if wireless works. See these posts: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Wireless-Internet-Home-Networking/No-WiFi-adapter-found-after-windows-10-upgrade/td-p/5170831 http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/forum/surfpro-surfusingwin10/no-wireless-device-after-upgrading-surface-pro-to/79b27611-d00a-4482-aa03-117abd0f51fb

Wifi adapter upgrade for hp pavilion g6-1d73us

I have an HP Pavilion g6-1d73us running Windows 7 Home Premium with Intel Core i3 2.30GHz, 4GB RAM, 64 bit OS and would like to upgrade my wifi adapter from wireless 802.11n to wireless 802.11ac so I can also change my modem & router to the new, faster standard. The current wifi adapter that I have is Realtek RTL8188CE 802.11 b/g/n wifi adapter. I have researched the hardware on the internet and I think I would like an Intel Wireless AC 7260 wifi adapter but I am not sure if it is compatible with my laptop. Could you please tell me what wireless 802.11ac card or adapter is compatible with my laptop or if I am even able to upgrade this compnent. My computer runs fine and has no problems. Thanks.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

No. Sorry. The HP laptop motherboard has a BIOS program that is set to stop the bootup process if any but very specific wireless cards is installed. In the case of your laptop, no 802.11ac adapter is on the "whitelist" to allow booting.
Do not shoot the messenger.

Can I use a 2nd Wifi Adapter

Hello
I currently use the Internet Sharing functionality to share a hotel's Wifi adapter, share it to my Ethernet, and have an Apple TV hard wired to the laptop while staying in a hotel.
I wonder if I bought a USB Wifi adapter that was Mac compatible, if I could share out to the app,e tv wirelessly, rather than needing the hard wire. I've shared in the opposite direction (Ethernet -> Wifi), and that works.
Has anyone ever hooked up a 2nd wifi to the Mac. Any idea how OS X would handle that?
Thanks

@OGELTHORPE I'd go to an Apple Store but, unfortunately, it's out of warranty. Also, this mac is a home machine and I use it on weekends only. Just wanted a quick solution.
@MartinR I've tried using the mac on various routers & networks - Starbucks, my Public Library, friends' homes. It's the same issue everywhere.
@VikingOSX No case/sleeve.
Thanks all for your comments and suggestions. I'll post any updates soon.
