Hi,

I have 2 desktop computers and one laptop in my house, which all have Internet connections through a Netgear Wireless router. Both my desktop computers are wired up, and the Internet connection is working fine. My laptop is using wireless, and that was working perfectly normal until yesterday. I got a message on the laptop saying that "No wireless networks were found in range" or "Wireless connection unplugged", or something like that.

I assumed this was a spyware or virus infection, but scanning the disk and cleaning off all infections did not change anything.

My router is working fine, and the "Wireless connectivity" sign is green, meaning that it is working. So the problem is definitely with my laptop.

In the past, when I searched for all wireless networks in range, my laptop would detect my neighbours networks as well, but now, there are no results at all.

I don't know what to do, someone please help.
