Sat 5200-902: WiFi Network adapter is missing

Hi,
I'm new to the forum so please be patient if this has been answered. I did search but couldn't find anything that helped me.
My problem is the I have a Satellite 5200-902 running XP Pro which is a WiFi ready machine. I've never try to use the WiFi functionality and only just discovered that it doesn't work.
In fact there in no Wireless network adapter that's recognised by Device manager. I've downloaded the wireless drivers from this site but without a device listed on my laptop can't update them.
I'm reasonably sure this has something to do with the fact that I'm running XP Pro. The notebook was preinstalled with XP Home were everything was fine. I'm on SP2 and upto date with all MS patches and would apriciate any pointers.
Thanks,
Regu.

Hi
Well, I have googled for this part number PA3212U-3MPC and I have found some online shops which sells this card. Unfortunately I dont found any informations about a compatibility of another WLan card.
But you can ask the Toshiba service partner for detailed information. Furthermore there you can order you WLan card for the unit.
Bye

10GE Multithreaded Network Adapter drivers missing?

The Sun Multithreaded 10GbE Networking Card does not have drivers available on Sun's site for either Solaris or Linux.
The user manual is here:
http://www.sun.com/products/networking/ethernet/10gigethernet/support.xml
or
http://www.sun.com/products-n-solutions/hardware/docs/html/820-0184-10/
Chapter 2 has a URL for the Linux drivers:
http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=44eb1efd
The Solaris drivers are supposed to be here:
http://www.sun.com/products/networking/ethernet/index.html
Neither link has the drivers specified. Does anyone know where to get the driver packages for this card?

Your drivers link worked.
http://www.sun.com/products/networking/ethernet/index.html
The process was convoluted, but I ended up where I needed to be.
I clicked on the product name,
worked my way through the "Support" tab to get to the product documentation,
http://www.sun.com/products-n-solutions/hardware/docs/Network_Connectivity/x8_exp_dl_10gige_fbr_xfp_lprfl/index.html
selected the Release Notes, and found a direct link to ...
http://www.sun.com/download
Then I got to a general page of product choices and selected Networking/Network Connectivity
http://www.sun.com/download/index.jsp?cat=Networking&tab=3&subcat=Network%20Connectivity
Aahhh ... Finally where we needed to be.
When prompted, I used my login account for the Sun download site.
I accepted the license agreement.
I then downloaded the single 7.7MB zipfile that has drivers for
Solaris SPARC, Solaris x86, RHEL, and SUSE Linux drivers in it.
The same drivers are for that card and for the QGE Ethernet adapter.
I didn't experience any frustrations with the download, once I got to where I needed to be.
Next time, try the A-to-Z product list first.

I have it as a saved bookmark in my browser.
It's often a quicker search.

14z-v000 LAN Network adapter missing

Realtek LAN Network Adapter is missing and i'm unable to reinstall it. I tried to reinstall the Realtek LAN Driver but it keeps telling me "Realtek Network Controller was not found. If Deep Sleep Mode is enabled Please Plug Cable." Also the same message occurs when I try and reinstall the Realtek Network Controller Driver. I have attempted to restore to a previous time when I had the Ethernet Adapter and the LAN connection was working. Note that i do have access to the internet through the Wireless network adapter and wireless network but in device manager I'm completely missing the adapter for the Realtek LAN Connection. Even when I plug in a Ethernet cord into the computer through the port on the side, it still doesn't detect any sort of activity. Both the orange and white lights are always on even if unpluged.

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a terrific place to find answers and tips!
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide. Learn How to Post and More I understand that you have lost your network capability on your notebook and are unable to do a restore back to when it was working. You are unable to install drivers for the LAN devices. Have you checked for viruses and malware? MS Malicious Software Removal Tool Would you do this step, which will scan for corrupted files and try to repair them. Go to the command prompt and run as administrator. Press Windows key +C to open charms.Type command prompt in the search bar.Right click and run as administrator.Type sfc /scannow and press enter.Once this completes restart your notebook and repeat this process once more. Now open Device Manager and show hidden devices, if the network adapters are not showing scan for hardware changes. Next you can try a HP PCs - Refresh Your PC to Resolve Problems (Windows 8). This will reinstall the operating system and should not affect your personal files. If the network adapters are still not listed in the Device Manager, I would test the network adapter for a hardware failure. HP Notebook PCs - Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 8). Network should be listed under the component test in the UEFI which is the one you want to utilize. If for any reason that options is not available or the adapter is not recognized, if warranty is not a concern you can try reseating the network card. The next step would be to try a recovery back to factory.HP PCs - Performing an HP system recovery (Windows 8) During the recovery there is an option to backup your personal files to prevent data loss. If you have not already done a backup I suggest you do one now.

How to install network adapter driver?

My Dell xps internet was working fine yesterday (wired connection) but then all of a sudden the internet stopped working even though the cat6 was plugged in to the router. I tried different cables to see if the cable was faulty but it turns out that my network adapter is missing a driver. I checked what network adapters are inside my motherboard but its come up with like 12 different network adapters. How do I know which one i should install the driver for? Also where can i find the correct driver to install?
I should also note i set my pc back to a date which it was in 4 years ago since it was really slow and i wanted to improve its performance.
I searched all over the web to find solution to my problem but none of the solutions at hand worked. 1 solution was to change the properties on my "Local Area Connection" but i haven't even got "Local Area Connection" icon for some reason (i have never seen a computer not have this icon before". It is like my computer is completely not picking up the connection from the router and even worse its as if its repelling it...
Anyways, signed up to this forum to see if one of you guys could help out :).

Sorted it now. Had to go into BIOS and enable internet connection.

Apple itunes installed network adapter and wiped my wireless out

On Windows Vista x64, I tried to take the update for itunes and it said it failed, to try download only (which has not been working either for me over past year; I always have to uninstall and go to the site to download/install it myself). But my internet stopped working 5 days ago (my wireless adapter inside laptop cannot find any networks ever; nor did my ethernet connection work to overcome this) and my first line of defense was to use sys restore; low and behold, there was an entry for the time period it stopped working that "apple network adapter installed" but no matter which restore point I tried to use anywhere around that event, it always came back with errors and stated no changes were made; still no internet either.
I have uninstalled the hardware thru device manager and tried to let windows reinstall it with drivers, but that doesn't fix it either. I even downloaded onto a flash drive the original driver that has since been updated by Intel for my Intel Link 5100 wireless adapter, but still it will not work. The ethernet did start working once I installed the old original driver for it, but even last night I got the error while plugged into my router "limited connectivity" meaning no internet. I then tried uninstalling all apple programs and kept being blocked from doing so (sounded viral to me so I ran norton power eraser, spoke with support, even used couple other programs for spyware malware bootkit/rootkit etc). Now I finally got all the programs uninstalled, cleaned the registry, and still I cannot get the wireless adapter to work.
I have spent days on this issue, seeing other discussions over the past few years where this has happened before (an update with apple's network adapter installs and wipes out the actual hardware adapter) but each time it only affects certain models of wireless/ethernet adapters. Guess this update got mine. I am trying NOT to have to restore my computer to factory condition as it is over 2 years old and that will mean millions of updates to all microsoft programs, drivers, etc.
Does anyone have any ideas that will fix this? I can send you my specs if you need them.
Sheila

Thx for the suggestion, but this is the post I originally found and figured out what went wrong, However, as I stated in my question post, I have not only uninstalled, scanned for hardware changes (w/o reboot) and rebooted and watched windows install device drivers for both lan & wifi, yet the wifi absolutely will not work now. I have the ethernet working since installing the old original driver, and today I was able to actually get back up to the last wifi driver from intel I had before itunes wiped it out. But still no wifi. My intel program and intel's system checker I used on their website states:
WIRELESS NETWORKING INFORMATION
Wireless Networking Product
Intel® WiFi Link 5100
Driver Version
13.4.0.9
Intel PROSet/Wireless Version
not detected
Software/Driver Status
Newer Driver Available
Latest version available
13.5.0
Hardware IDs
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4232&SUBSYS_12018086&REV_00
and I can't get the Newer driver to install without errors stating it will not work with my ACer setup. But at least I got from v12.0.0.73 today to the one above. I reinstalled Itunes today hoping that would fix anything I'd removed and the version was like 10.3.x.x.x. Then I uninstalled from device manager & rebooted hoping wifi network adapter would start working again, but alas, no..
Hope someone can help me soon, cause I've run out of ideas.

Windows 7 network adapter drivers - bootcamp

I have bootcamped my Mac and after finishing installing Windows 7 there is no internet access and my driver for network adapter is missing... How can i solve this?

I had the same thing as you (that my BT mouse & keyboard were working but then after a while they started to act up -mouse freezing on&off, keys sticking-).
In my case the 'before' and 'after' was actually running the setup on the Bootcamp Utility disk that contains all the Bootcamp drivers. There must be a rogue driver on there that messed up my system. I ended up doing a reinstall and only installing the bluetooth drivers (that are also on the same Utlity disk, but in the $WinPEDriver$ folder. This at least worked for me.
However, by doing so I did not get the handy Bootcamp utility in the lower left corner of Windows that allows me to conveniently reboot and switch from Win8 to MacOS. I am trying to figure out if I can install that utility separately without all the drivers being automatically installed as well

Yoga 2 Pro (Win 8.1) wifi adapter go missing once a while

Dear Yoga 2 Pro fans,I'm sharing my fix here. I'm a device driver/firmware s/w developer so I know a few things My Y2P (bought in April 2014) works fine except that the Wifi adapter need to be disable/enable (via Ctrl Panel->Networks) to make it find my wifi router after power up, or after wake up from sleep. I've been living with this product defect but tolerable, and the wifi speed and stability is normal. I only use Y2P in laptop mode.I was using :* Intel(R) Wireless-N 7260, driver 11/17/2014 v17.13.2.2 (was update via 'Update Driver...' button in the Driver Properties), -- "Allow..device to save power"=checked, -- Advanced tab's U-APSD Support = Enabled* Intel Smart Connect (ISCT) is installed but turned off* Intel PROSet/Wireless Tools v17.14.0* BIOS was 76CN38WW Until 2 weeks ago, I updated the N7260 wifi adapter driver to12/16/2014 v17.13.12.1 (was update via 'Update Driver...' button in the Driver Properties), and hell broke loss... The wifi adapter will go missing randomly, i.e. midway when transfering files in the LAN, or after power up from shutdown, or after return from sleep. Subsequent shutdown and power on will not recover the missing N7260 wifi adaptor !! No overheating issue as I was using battery at 60% full.And more strange, I leave Y2P over night, or a couple of hours, and the N7260 wifi adaptor appear (be detected by Win8.1) the next morning....Bluetooth is always working and no problem. After spending one day, reading both Lenovo and Intel N7260 forums, I think I solved it but it wasn't easyas there are many combinations. Here's my final config* BIOS is 76CN43WW 5/5/2015, with Lenovo Fast Startup = Disable* Intel Smart Connect (ISCT) - uninstalled with Control Panel > Programs* Intel PROSet/Wireless Tools v17.14.0 - uninstalled with Control Panel > Programs* While N7260 wifi adaptor is in 'missing' state, via Dev Mgr > View > Show hidden devices -> Uninstall drivers & remove files, and reboot Y2P* Download from Lenovo Support Y2P and install 13kd018f.exe (while N7260 wifi adaptore is in 'missing' state), shutdown and wait for 1-2 hours.* Power up, and hopefully N7260 re-appears, check via Devi Mgr -> Intel(R) Wireless-N 7260, driver 5/26/2014, 17.0.3.3 -- "Allow..device to save power"= Unchecked, -- Advanced tab's U-APSD Support = Disable -- Power provide set Max Performance on Battery and Plugged-In I've used this for a day and is stable, will monitor more, and report back !

Ok, the above doesn't work, but at leas the Wifi adapter now consistently disappear the 2nd time when Y2P boots up after a shutdown or from sleep. I've brought it to Lenovo Service Center (Shenzhen), and found it's h/w issue, both the Wifi card has to be replaced as well as the 'sound card' that has connectors to hold the wifi card to the motherboard Checking fee: CNY 50Wifi card: CNY 380Sound card: CNY 280Cleaning fee: CNY 50 Gee.. my Y2P is just 2 months past the 1 year warranty

Wifi Adapter Goes Missing After Working

HP Paviliion laptop running Windows 8 from factory recovery (2 times). Problem: WiFi works then adapter goes missing. Device Manager / Network shows only the wired card. Scan for new hardware yields nothing new. Wifi button shows toggle from Airplane Mode Off / Airplane Mode On OK. This is the F12 button (I mentioned this because on a MSI 6200 series laptop the wifi button and another are mislabeled). Could it be the wifi card going bad since I don't see the card in Device Manager? Thanks. Darryl

Unable to access the internet on windows xp using bootcamp. I installed the bootcamp drivers ( from snow leopard) but it still doesn't work. I have parallels 6 also installed and IT works fine. I am missing a rtl network adapter-thanksr

Hi
I have a new 21 inch imac oct 2011 version. I installed bootcamp and windows xp on my machine and i also installed parallels 6.
Paralleles works great and i can open any program with it. But bootcamp also works EXCEPT it refuses to give me access to the internet. I installed the bootcamp drivers from my snow leopard disk, it did not make a difference. All the drivers installed but still no internet. I then installed the bootcamp drivers from the gray mac osx disk (#1) but it stopped installing with an error number ( 2753) and it said that the package was damaged.
I have tried everything; i opened each disk and trieed installing the files separately. Nothing.
What i see missing in my devices screen in XP is the network adapter.
I have a router (dlink-dr615) and it is connected by ethernet to my imac. I wonder if THIS might have anything to do with the problem. Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Thank you

I'd recommend reposting in the Boot Camp forum, that is where the Boot Camp and Windows gurus hang out.
Good luck.

New Intel WIFI Wireless Network Adapter does not recognize Wireless Router

I have had a Linksys BEFW11S4 Version 4 Wireless router for quite some time. It works like a champ and I have one Laptop wired to it and a second using Wireless working just fine. Recently, I received a new ThinkPad W500 Laptop with an Intel WIFI Link 5100 AGN wireless network adapter. The older laptop that works just fine with the router uses a
11a/b/g Wireless LAN Mini PCI Express Adapter by Atheros. However, the NEW laptop with the Intel Adapter fails to connect to the Router. It will either indicate a failure while "Waiting for Association" or it will indicate a failure when waiting to "renew IP Address". Sometimes, it will show a signal strength close to ZERO (Even as the older laptop with the other adapter is showing a signal strength close to 100%) When I called Linksys support, I was told that the facts that the Router (a) works find with the wired Laptop and (b) works fine with the 11a/b/g NEtwork Adapter and (c) works fine when WIRED to the new laptop all indicate that the problem is NOT with the router at all -- but with the Network Adapter. Can anyone tell me what has to be adjusted in the Adapter settings? Right now, I am using IBM Access Connections for BOTH of the wireless laptops. I have made sure to set IDENTICAL values for SSID and WEP (128-bit) [static] password. I have also ensured that all OTHER settings are the same for the two laptops. Yet, in one laptop, there is NO PROBLEM while in the other, I can not get the Wireless Adapter to "see" the signal from the Router. TO further check this, I have [temporarily] disabled the WEP password, enabled SSID broadcast, and disabled the MAC address restrictions that I put in (so that the system would be totally "open") yet the Intel Adapter STILL did not "find" anything. In addition, when I use the "Find WIFI" feature in Access Connections, I find that SOMETIMES the network with SSID is found and sometimes, it will display "unknown network" and not pick up the SSID.
This is all very frustrating. If anyone has experience with the Intel WIFI Link 5100 AGN Adapter, I would appreciate any hints, tricks, ideas, etc.
Think you!!!!
--Zvi

I installed the LATEST version of IBM Access Connections as well as verifying that I have teh LATEST drivers for the Intel Wireless NEtwork Adapter.
What now happens is that I am able to authenticate to the Router. However, I get a failure on "renewing IP Address" -- which [according to the diagnostic message] means that the Rotuer fails to provide me with an IP address to use. Do you have any suggestions?

My childs ipod touch is missing, someone tried to reset the password around the same time it "Vanished" is there a way to track what WIFI network was used to make this attempt?    We think it was taken at her school and any small info would help!

Trying to find my daughters ipod touch, the last we saw it was around thursday and strangly I recieved an email that the apple id was attempting to be changed and or reset...this was not by me or my wife and my daughter is 7 so i dont think it was her...we think it may have been taken at her school but not sure so what i was wondering was is there a way to pinpiont the wifi network that was used to make this attempt??      If it is then it will be a huge help,              This was a gift from "santa" and finding would really make us happy!!    Thanks for any and all help!!

Hi peye,
I don't believe the problem is necessary the platform service, but a combination of your Anti-Virus and the Platform Service.
Try this:
Change Platform to Automatic again. Disable or temporary uninstall your Anti-Virus and see what happens.
Report back.

How to connect your Verizon 4510L to your home Wifi Network

Hello there!
I recently set my mom up with one of these guys and ran into the problem of having more than 5 devices that need to connect to the Internet and/or each other. I couldn't find any resources online that described how this can be done, or even if it is allowed. So I figured I would finally contribute to the Online community and share my success with all of you! As a disclaimer: I am not Verizon/Linksys/etc technical support and provide the following information freely and without warranty. The instructions below are specific to my configuration, and while yours WILL work using the same general principles, the exact steps required to make it work may be different. In other words, YMMV Good Luck!
First off, my environment doesn't equal your environment, and what I will describe below is one of the more complex scenarios. You can disregard any extra routers if you only use 1. Here is the environment I had to work with:
A large 2 story home with a basement area as well. The wifi signal does not travel well from floor to floor, so we had to have 1 wireless router per floor. We DID have the luxury of using home wiring to to phsycally connect both routers together, if you don't have that luxury, I might suggest using a "Powerline" adapter to help wire your two routers together. Some devices required wired connectivity on both floors as well, so wireless repeaters would not be sufficient. We purchased 2 routers to accomplish the following task. Brand of router should not matter. If your home is a 1 story, or have adequate coverage from a single router, you can disregard the 2nd (SLAVE) router instructions (4-5) below.
First off, what you will need to make this work:
One or more Wireless Routers (we used Linksys Wireless-G or Wireless-N 4-port routers)
     *EDIT: You need only 1 router, and if an additional access point is needed, purchase an Access Point or repeater with wired/wireless capabilities*
Verizon JetPack 4510L MiFI device
One Wireless Bridge (we used Linksys WET610 1-port Entertainment Bridge)
Next, lets setup the wireless/wired home network to connect all devices with one another:
1) Choose one router to be the MASTER, and the other to simply be your SLAVE/repeater for the other floor.
2) Before physically connecting the MASTER and SLAVE routers together perform the following:
3) On the MASTER router:
     - Change the router IP address to 192.168.10.1
          - The 10 is random, and you can make it whatever you want (as long as it isn't "1"), just remember it and keep it consistent.
     - Configure DHCP (usually on by default) but change the subnet from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.10.x.
          - The reason for changing the DHCP subnet is because your 4510L device uses DHCP as well, and it is configured to use 192.168.1.x
               - They can't be the same or it won't work
     - Configure your wireless SSID and security (preferably WPA2)
4) On the SLAVE router *EDIT: or repeater or access point*:
     - Change the router IP address something outside the DHCP range 1-100, but on the same subnet as the master router (ie. 192.168.10.101)
     - Disable DHCP on the router, as all address assignment is going to come from the MASTER
          - You may want to tape over the WAN port as well to remind yourself that it will not be used
     - Configure your wireless SSID and security to match that of the MASTER router
          - This will make it easier for your clients to use both access points and move throughout your home without having an issue
5) Connect both routers together with Ethernet (either direct cable, home ethernet wiring, powerline adapter, etc)
     - You want to connect both routers using one of the built in network ports (1-4)
There, now you have both floors of your home setup to accept either wired or wireless clients who will be assigned 192.168.10.x IP addresses. However, they will not have access to the Internet...yet!
The MiFi device by default has a long SSID, and the password to connect is on a label on the bottom of it. Power it on in the room next to a computer (probably a windows computer), and view your wireless networks to connect to from the desktop. You will probably see the wireless network name you just created on the routers and the "Verizon ..." MiFi name. Simply make a note of the EXACT SSID being broadcasted by the MiFi device. If you changed the default WiFi password before attempting this, make a note of that new password as well.
Next, lets use the key to making this thing work...the Wireless Bridge. The wireless bridge first needs to be physically connected to either router on ports 1-4. The bridge will get an IP address assigned to it and you will need to find that address out so that you can access it from a web browser. The easiest way to find that out is to connect to the MASTER routers web-based administration page (http://192.168.10.1), click on Status menu->Local network, and then click the "DHCP client table" button. You will find the bridge name and IP address there. Keep that administration window open.
Next, connect your web browser with the bridges IP address so that you can manually configure it to access the MiFi device. The bridge will ask if you want auto or manual configuration, and you want manual. When prompted for the SSID and security type, type in the SSID of the MiFi device EXACTLY as you wrote it down. Next, under security, change the type to WPA2-Personal, and type in the password to access the Verizon MiFi device (either on the sticker under it, or whatever you previously changed it to). Once you complete that setup, the status page should tell you that the bridge is connected and have an IP address (192.168.1.x) assigned to it. Once that is done, you can close your web browser to the wireless bridge.
Disconnect the bridge from the routers network ports and now connect it to the MASTER routers WAN port.
Next, return to the MASTER routers web-based administration page (http://192.168.10.1), click on the Status menu and view the WAN IP information. If everything was connected correctly:
MiFi wirelessly -> Wireless Bridge wired -> Master router WAN port (then optionally wired from port 1) -> Slave router port 1
Then, you should see the WAN IP address of 192.168.1.x assigned to your MASTER router.
If you do see that, then congratulations, open a web browser from any of your wired/wireless clients connected to your home network, and you should be able to access the Internet! You will be able to support as many clients as your Routers will allow you to directly connect (104 if I am not mistaken)...Yay!
I hope my experience helps you all in achieving the same results!
Troubleshooting:
If you do not see a WAN IP address, you might want to power off the MASTER router, the Wireless Bridge and MiFi device. Then in the following order power up each one, one at a time, giving the unit time to fully configure and connect to their respective networks: First MiFi, then the Bridge, then the MASTER router.
After the Master router is fully powered on, test a webpage again from any client connected to your new home network and it should work.
If it _still_ doesn't work, I would recheck the steps listed above to see if anything was missed. Particularly, making sure you changed the router IP and DHCP subnet of the MASTER router to something other than 192.168.1.x.
Good Luck!

Q: "In your example of using the wireless repeater, assuming it is on a different floor than the main router, how are the clients connecting to the network on that floor?"
A: However you like, both devices support thier own cabled and wireless connections.
I assume you are only interested in wireless client connections since cable connections are straight forward. Depending on how you setup the SSID's clients will connect to either the router or the repeater and they should be overlapping eachother a little.
Same SSID:
If the router and repeater share the same SSID then the client will decide on thier own which one to connect to. The client will roam between the two on its own criteria as the user moves around the enviornment. Roaming and transitioning will happen seamlessly for you and you should not notice a break in your connection unless you have something really specific connected to the internet. In most cases you cannot influence this behavior on your devices as they all have thier own criteria for choosing one SSID over another with a similar name.
Different SSID:
If the SSID's are different then the user must manually connect to one network or the other. Roaming will not be seamless and as the user walks out of range the client will be disconnected from the device. This provides the best reliability and control but requires more user intervention.
Q:"So correct me if I am wrong, but in your setup, there would be 2 wifi network, and the soft limitation of 4 devices on the repeater floor.
A. Nope, the repeater will support as many devices as it can, depending on the model you purchase. Even though the repeater needs a wireless connection with the MiFi, the Repeater rebroadcasts and acts as its own independant wireless router. The MiFi could care lesss how many people are connected to the Repeater, all it see's is one connection. If you removed the MiFi from the repeater then the repeater will continue to broadcast its own SSID. Clients connected to the repeater will not be disconnected from the repeater SSID but they would not recieve internet until the MiFi returns.
With the repeater enviornment you could have 10 people on the repeater, 10 people on the wireless router and 4 people directly conneted to the MiFi all at the same time. I dont suggest it running like that for performance reasons but hopefully you get the idea.

Intel My wifi technology adapter not found

Hello ! I got problem.
Some days ago my wifi worked fine until now .Now i got error like this: adapter not found. Can't access wifi anymore. I think my drivers are updated, i had downloaded the latest from your site. I tried format, but that didn't help too, system restore didn't help, unistalling old drivers and installing new drivers didn't help. But sometimes it will find my wireless connections and it will work fine, but sometimes it's gone. Currently i'm connected with cable. I have tried many solutions but none of them have helped me. Can you answer what to do?

NikuNikkur,
In device manager, network adapters, Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter.
Make sure the box is checked, allow computer to turn off this device to save power. If the box is unchecked, the My WiFi Adapter will go missing.

Able to join wifi network, but cant connect to web or itunes

Picked up 16 GB iPod Touch today at Best Buy. Able to sync music ok. No problems with sound quality using good earphones.
Touch is good but takes a fair amount of pressure. Guess I will get adapted
Able to join my home wifi network, but cant connect to an website or ITunes wifi- says it can't find the server. I entered my WEP key and pressed join. I have a wifi icon with 3 bars. Did I miss a step?
Am converting a few tv shoes so I can test video

Did you try putting it to sleep/turning it back on. It originally did that for me, I put in my key for my network (which is hard, as its many many digits and letters) and it said it couldn't find the server. I turned it off, and back on, started up the iTunes store, and it connected automatically and worked.
