"Windows (XP) is not currently managing your wireless network" Started by Shoban Sen , Jul 09 2010 07:18 PM Please log in to reply 3 replies to this topic #1 Shoban Sen Shoban Sen Members 66 posts OFFLINE Local time:09:22 PM Posted 09 July 2010 - 07:18 PM I did something stupid. I cannot remember what I did and why did I do it. (But it was something to do with a dialog box question like "Do you want Windows to manage your wireless connectivity?" I probably clicked on No.) I have a small wireless home network between my desktop and laptop computers. The desktop is working fine -- I am using the desktop to make this posting. With t
Connect to the Selected Network" I use Windows 7 on my desktop machine and I ran into an annoying problem the other day. I tried to connect to my wireless network at home like I normally do, but could not connect. I kept getting the following error message: http://helpdeskgeek.com/networking/fix-windows-is-unable-to-connect-to-the-selected-network/ Windows is Unable to Connect to the Selected Network Strange problem! I've also had this error once before when I first installed Windows 7 on a new computer and it refused to connect to any wireless networks. I tried to recall everything I had done to fix it the previous time and eventually got things working again. I'll list out all the methods you can try to fix the wireless connectivity problem. Release/Renew IP Address You can first try to release and error windows renew the IP address in case it's simply a problem with the IP address. You can do this in one of two ways. You can try to simply restart the computer or you can run a few commands from the command prompt. Or you can try both. To run the commands, click on Start and then type in CMD into the search box. Press Enter and you'll get the command prompt dialog. Now simply type these two commands: ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew You error windows is should see something like what I have above in the screenshot, but instead of saying Ethernet adapter, it'll say Wireless network adapter. If you get some kind of error when trying to release or renew related to DHCP server, then there may be an issue with the wireless router, which is the second thing to try. Restart Wireless Router The second thing to try is to restart the wireless router, if you can access it. If you're trying to connect to someone else's wireless router or a hotspot at an airport, for example, then you obviously won't be able to do this and the issue could still be with your computer. You can skip this part and read on if this is your scenario. Otherwise, go ahead and turn off the router completely and then wait about 30 seconds and turn it back on. Wireless routers are notorious for having all kinds of strange connection issues and most of the time the problem can be fixed by simply restarting. Disable Security on Wireless Router Depending on what kind of wireless card you have and the security settings for the wireless router, it could be that you simply cannot connect because the security encryption on the router is too advanced and your network card does not support it. In order to test this, try to turn off or disable the security on the wireless router temporarily to see if you are able to connect. You'll have
