HP Pavilion dv9700 laptop, Wireless stops working at random.

I have a HP Pavilion dv9000 17" laptop, and the wireless stops working for no reason at random. When I boot it up some times the wireless works and some times it does not. How do I fix it? It's not a virus, It's not the wireless card, And it's not the network. Also when it's not working it says "identifying" where the name of the network is and "limited connectivity" where the network status is at.

It is because your wi fi network adapter not getting ip addresses from router.
For that connect your router to computer with ethernet cable then access it with following link.
http://192.168.1.1
or
http://192.168.0.1

type user name as "admin" and password as "admin" or blank or "password"

then go to advaced and enable DHCP .
Then save and restart router.

Then go to your laptop go to my etwork places proeprty then right click on your wi fi adapter then proeprty then tcp ip and set ip get automatic.
Then it works fine.
Let me know if you need more assistanse.
Thanks.

Wireless unable to connect

Windows 7 is not best suited yet for wireless connectivity, but broadcom wireless cards/dongles are about the only ones that work favourably with this Microsoft offering. Anything to do with non working hardware IS A DRIVER ISSUE AND IF IT IS NOT IN THE UPDATE SITE YOU WILL HAVE TO DOWNLOAD DRIVERS FROM THE VENDOR OF YOUR PARTICULAR HARDWARE. MOST HARDWARE THAT WORKS IN VISTA WILL WORK IN WINDOWS 7.

HP Pavilion dv9700 laptop, Wireless stops working at random.

HP's normally use the Atheros wifi card which recently has had many problems such as what you describe here. Try a different wifi card to see if this solves the problem. If you don't have a wifi card take it to a local repair shop to see if they have one they can try for you.

Wireless connection HP Pavillion DV5000

Sometimes there is a button above the Function keys that looks like an antennae with air waves coming from it. Sometimes on HP laptops, you can accidentally hit this button (which is touch sensitive) to turn off the wireless radio. Look to see if this button is lit up. If not, try to see if you can touch the spot where it "would" light up, so that it will light up.

Hp wireless assistant 3.00 C2

Hi,

You may install a different version but it is not guarantee that it would work. I suggest to connect your system to an ethernet cord (wired connection) then click on the link below..

http://tinyurl.com/6jlcth


You should see there Start Detection - it will automatically detect the system driver you have. You should select the operating system then you may reinstall the network driver then.


Keep me posted.

Thanks
