Lost wireless connection - laptop

[splittingeve]

System in question;
Aspire One D255E
Win7 starter, Intel 1.66, 1 GB RAM, 250 GB HDD
adapters;
Atheros AR8152/8158 PCI-E (NDIS 6.20)
Broadcom 802.11n

Hey all - connectivity issue here. My sis has the above laptop. For a year or better, she has been wirelessly connected to her local network, via a Linksys E2000 router without issue.

Rather suddenly a couple of weeks back, she found she had no connection. There were no changes to this network that I'm aware of (the users don't even know how to change settings online for said network). Several available networks show up on the list (hers and a couple of unsecured neighbors I believe). Despite full bars for her local network, clicking 'connect' has no visible effect. Nothing happens. Not like a 'failed to connect' or something similar, just...nothing.

I went through various steps such as;
- assured that fn+F2 was not the issue, wireless is enabled
- power down, wait and reboot the modem, router, and her laptop, in that order
- 'hard' reset router at power up to restore defaults
- uninstalled network adapter(s) and reinstalled - with the company site's latest drivers - they installed, and 'ready to use' appeared
- ran the various (fairly useless) Windows network diagnostics which essentially told me I hadn't selected a network...which I had...repeatedly
- Swapped out router completely with another, with the same results
- Took laptop here, to a completely different network, again with the same results
- released/renewed IP on laptop
- reset TCP/IP with 'netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt' command

The local networks I'm attempting to connect to are unsecured - no password required, etc.

So, any idea what I should try next? My experience here is rather limited, and I've run out of ideas. Thanks much for any suggestions!

I've attached a text result of 'ipconfig all' for the laptop, and a screenshot of 'xirrus' running on same if it will help.

Two  or three areas you need to explain.
A. You can not connect to other networks using wireless. - Right?
B. You did not try and external wireless adapter. -Right?
C. The laptop can get into the Internet using Ethernet cable?

Please confirm before we go ton the next stop.

. Despite full bars for her local network, clicking 'connect' has no visible effect.

What do you mean effect? No messages shown? Can you check the network and sharing center - Manage wireless network? Do you see the home network SSID from there?

Two  or three areas you need to explain.
A. You can not connect to other networks using wireless. - Right?

Correct, I've tried three routers across two different networks now.

B. You did not try and external wireless adapter. -Right?

Correct (would have to purchase to try, trying to be a bit more sure before I drop the $)

C. The laptop can get into the Internet using Ethernet cable?

Yes, it connects straight away when hard wired.

[splittingeve]

What do you mean effect? No messages shown?

Yes, no messages, no connection. It simply doesn't respond in any way.

Can you check the network and sharing center - Manage wireless network? Do you see the home network SSID from there?

Yes I can access manage wireless network, but it is blank. I cannot 'add' network (clicking 'add' also has no visible effect at all, no messages, etc), apparently because I can't connect to any(?).

This will be an ultra simple suggestion (sometimes the obvious is overlooked). On many laptops there is a key on the keyboard to enable/disable wireless. Has that inadvertently been turned off?truenorth
P.S. If that isn't it try to borrow an external wireless/usb dongle (you will also need the software for it) and install it on the laptop to see if you can connect wirelessly. If yes then it could be a failed wireless chip in the computer.Any warnings in device manager?

No prob about simple suggestions - at this point I'd try submerging the thing in water...permanently. But no, the on/off for the wireless on this machine is the fn+F2 combo, and it's on. I've no access to a USB wireless deal, but am very close to purchasing one as I'm fresh outta' ideas! Thanks for the response.

Try removing your ethernet or wired connection with wireless radio turned on. Hover over the system tray wireless icon bar and click once and available networks will pop up including your home network. Choose your home network - connect. What happens?

Download MiniToolBox and select all options.
A notepad will open then copy-paste the report on your next reply.

Thx - here's the goods;

Literally, nothing. The button (connect to my network) depresses and there is no response at all. Same result on the previous network and the third router (all of which have other PCs connected to them).

Log in to your router then try changing the wireless mode from mixed mode to dedicated /n or /g alternately then check the difference.

Log in to your router then try changing the wireless mode from mixed mode to dedicated /n or /g alternately then check the difference.

Tried each alternately with no apparent change. Still no response when attempting to connect to network.

[jason2074]

Go to start and type services.msc - Enter,  look for WLAN Autoconfig and check if its not disabled. Change it to Automatic and hit apply.

Go to start and type services.msc - Enter,  look for WLAN Autoconfig and check if its not disabled. Change it to Automatic and hit apply.

Yes, wireless LAN service is enabled, set to automatic and currently running.

[jason2074]

As a last resort, remove bonjour by add or remove programs and disable IPV6 -> Right-click the wireless adapter in Network connections and choose properties and uncheck Internet Protocol 6 (tcp/ipv6), ok. If nothing changes, I think you need to try a USB wifi adapter at this point as suspected by Truenorth earlier.
