My compaq presario v2000 laptop cannot detect the wifi signal of Zyxel router. It can detect all other router brands. I'm sure that my Zyxel router is sending signal because I can detect it using my HTC smartphone. Can anyone help?. I already tried restarting my laptop and restarting the router and still nothing.

I would guess that all the other wireless routers are broadcasting using the G wireless standard 802.11g and your router is only broadcasting using the newer N 802.11n standard. Your laptop only supports B/G. Check your settings on your router and either change it to G or dual G/N mode so your older laptop can find the network

I was able to connect to my HP Compaq Presario V2000 Laptop to my WiFi Network using NetGear. When I reconfigured the network I could connect to all other network like Dell Lptop , Nokia Smart Phone and HP...

Hi!

Your Compaq V2000 has an Intel Pro Wireless 2200 BG wireles adapter. (doesn't support N, but that's not the point I think)

If your new network configuration is based on WPA/WPA2 encyption, this adapter has some known problems to establish a connection. It works great with WEP, but not so well with WPA.
Sometimes the issue can be solved by installing the latest versions of drivers and software for the wireless adapter.
If it still doesn't work, a known workaround is to disable via device manager all other network adapters in the computer (ethernet adapter), leaving active only the Intel Pro 2200 wireless adapter.


Hope it helped,

Bogdan

Error Message: 104-Unsupported wireless network device detected. System Halted. Remove device and restart.

And when you did that, did the system then work? If it did you may have a faulty WiFi card or an incompatible driver.
