Hello Mark,

Thank you for the advise but I don't have "wireless connection" under
"network connection" in the laptop that I have problem with. Please advise
how can I retrieve the icon. Thank you.

Default No Wireless Icon & Connection

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.

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".

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.

I believe that "your network device" you mentioned below is "YOUR-
4105E587B6" in my system. However, I don't have "uninstall" option under
"action" or when I right click "YOUR- 4105E587B6". Under "action", I have 3
options of "scan", "print", or "help" and when I right click the "YOUR-
4105E587B6", only option is "scan". I checked "view" and checked hidden
icons but I don't see "uninstall" in anywhere including under "YOUR-
4105E587B6". Please advise my next option. Thank you.

If you rightclick the device, and then Properties,the Driver tab should have
a button for "Update Driver" If you can't make that work, you are probably
out of luck. Some kind of variation on "Have Disk" and a supplied disk for
the system might be available.
