I installed the wireless card in my hp compaq nc8000 but the wifi light doesn't come on
Maybe you don't have your wireless turned on. Look onboth sides and in front for the Wireless Switch and turn it on.
Also once the wireless switch is turned on there are keystrokes that can togglethe wireless on or off. Normally you would Press and Hold the FN functionkey located at the lower left of the keyboard, then hit the correct F1 thru F12key that toggles the wireless. The correct F1 thru F12 key to hit willhave the wireless signal icon )))) on it. Or it might have the icon of a towerwith the wireless signal icon )))). Normally the screen will displayWireless On or Wireless Off when you toggle the wireless.

Boss You need to install suitable wireless network adopter so as to support your wifi in the laptop. generally the most common Network adopter used in Hp laptops is Atheros AR 5006X.. so go the device manager of the lapltop and check it out whether the drivers are working fine or not.. so install New drivers if required.. which you can easily find in internet.. some of the common website are..brothersoft.com..etc Hope that helps you..

If it does not have internal wireless then you need a PCMCIA wireless card, these can be picked up at most electronic stores such as BestBuy. Installation is very simple, just plug it in to the long rectangular port on the side of your laptop and install the drivers that come on the disc.

I think the wireless switch is underneath. It moves back and forth but doesn't stay in one position. There are also 4 buttons on top of the keyboard. one is to turn it on, one has a lock on it and one has the wireless icon and another has something like a page with lines on it. Nothing happens when i push the wireless button. I will try the f keys thank you. I am so confused. I want to cry.
