Default No Wireless Icon & Connection

Go to Start/Run, and type:
MSINFO32

You should be able to find your Network device in the "Components" area.
After identifying it, use device manager to uninstall the device, and restart.

Under "Device Manager", which Icon should I highlight? My top/main Icon is
called "YOUR- 4105E587B6" and when I highlight the icon, there is no
"uninstall" under "action" but "scan for hardware changes".

The wireless access provided uses some device. It will be listed in Device
Manager, and you should first try 'refreshing' the driver it uses. You may
have been provided a disk to use to do this, or you may be able to use a
windows driver.

Go to Start/Run, and type DEVMGMT.MSC , highlight the device, Action menu,
"Uninstall", then restart Windows, to find the device drivers again
automatically.
