I've always used this "plug-in" internet broadband (looks like a usb flash drive) for my laptop in university but now that i'm back at home, i can't connect my laptop to our Wi-Fi. Our network doesn't appear on the list of available Wi-Fi connections and i'm afraid it can't connect to any other Wi-Fi connections as well. When i open the list of available networks, it only shows the "portable broadvand" even if i haven't plugged it in. I tried unistalling it too and still our Wi-Fi network doesn't show up. My laptop has recently been reformatted and i've read somewhere about this "Wi-Fi adapter"? Could this be my problem? And how would i know if i have it? And if i would be able to download it for free? Also, if anyone might suggest the "Wi-Fi button" in my laptop, no, my laptop don't have it.
I know that my laptop is the problem since my ipad and iphone can connect properly with our network. Please be patient with me for i have very limited knowledge with laptops, Wi-Fi and other techie stuffs. Lol basic instructions/explanations are appreciated!
Thank you!
