Desktop PC won't connect to Wifi...

[betadead86]

Hello,
I've just gotten a new ISP (honestly, it's the same provider but with a different router and ip address with the bill being in a different name) and while all other devices I own are able to get a connection just fine, my desktop pc is unable to for some reason. I own an HP p6813w with Windows 7 Premium and a Roswell RNX-N600UBE usb wifi adapter and after automatically recognizing and connecting to the proper SSID, a yellow icon appears over the internet tab saying "unidentified network no internet access" and when I use Internet Explorer a page saying "Your not connected to a network" appears.

I know this has something to do with my Network and Sharing Center settings, but I'm not sure what.

So do you get a connection using the Ethernet cable?

About the fancy adapter. Does it work on any other computer?
 Is it new?  Old? My gussies that it never worked. **

** negative reviews from users and the product has been discontinued.

I haven't tried an ethernet connection yet but will do as I would either have to carry the PC from the 2nd floor to the living room where the router is located or get a ridiculously long ethernet cord.

The adapter was purchased  brand new a year ago and I did try it on a laptop and worked perfectly. I also tried re-installing the software for it on my desktop but to no avail which is why I'm sure it has to do with the Network & Sharing settings.

If you have a smartphone with a WI-fi hot sport, you have a tool you can used to test the adapter.

Really, an extremely long Ethernet cable is a good thing to have in your tool box. Standard Ethernet cable can run 100 meters, 328 feet, and still work good. Handy way to troubleshoot Wi-fi issues.

If you need a good cheap Wi-Fi adapter, most of  the cheap things now on line will work well. See Amazon, Best Buy r Newegg. Or even Walmart.

For $8, it is cheaper that buying a long Ethernet cable.

Are you sure the wireless connection with your laptop was using your WiFi adapter?  Could the laptop have been connecting via its built-in WiFi adapter?
