Hello-

I have been using a wireless router (D-link) with my Toshiba laptop for some time. I moved my cable internet router and wireless router to another room and now I cannot connect to my wireless network. Other wireless networks are available and my laptop will connect to those. My wireless network is visible on "available network connections" and has excellent signal strength. Any help someone could provide would be great.

Thanks!

What error do you get when you try to connect to your wireless network? If you could walk me through what you see, it would be a great help.

When I attempt to connect it tries for a while then says "not connected".

maybe you accidently turn off the switch underneath the mouse theres like a switch says on or off. not really underneath. its in the edge. really close to the mouse. theres a switch there for wireless. also check your security passphrase probably u put the wrong one.

thank you.

tikyoo, if the switch was the problem, they would not see any other wireless networks.

amcgra20, go into the control panel, open up network connections, find the wireless network connection. Right click on wireless network connection and go to properties. Then click on the "Wireless Networks" tab and locate "Preferred networks". Remove all network in that box, including yours. Then click OK. Now, go ahead and try to connect to your wireless network again.

Also, as tikyoo suggested, check your passphrase and make sure you type it correctly.

Let me know if that changed anything.
