HP Pavilion dv6 with Intel i7 chip and Centrino Wireless-N 1000 network adapter.
It does have the NIC inside the laptop case (I checked, including connections)
I checked Device Manager and that adapter is not listed. Btw, other adapters, i.e. Bluetooth, do show up.
I connected computer using a LAN cable and it worked (it needed to install some controller though) but I need to use WiFi instead.
I figure it has something to do with the drivers, but maybe it is a different problem altogether.
Any tips?
