I just bought a used Fujitsu N6010 Lifebook. I am trying to connect to my home network. My router is a NetGear WPN824v2 wireless. I have another laptop and a desktop on the network and they work fine. Fujitsu works when hard wired. When I try to connect to wireless network I get "no wireliss network found in range. I am 2 feet from router at this point. When I look at Network Connection/wireless network connection/properties and go to Wireless Network tab it list the network. I am WEP and make sure the SSID (Kisco) properties are correct. However, when I highlight the SSID and click on View wireless networks. I just come back to the same error message.

Sometimes in our rush to try to get our systems up and running, we tend to overlook the obvious and start digging deeper right from the beginning. I always apologize to end users for asking the obvious stupid question like, "did you turn it on?"

Good for you for figuring it out.
