    My laptop suddenly can't connect to internet using wireless home network (router) and it also don't appear in the wireless network list in my laptop (last time do) . When I tried using the LAN cable plug to my laptop and router, it can surf. May I know is it my router wireless spoil? Thank you.

    My network connection shown : Wireless Network connection with a "Red Cross".
    After I plug my LAN cable, it shown another icon LOCAL Area connection with "NO Red Cross" and I can connect to internet

    When I right click on the wireless network connection and click diagnostics, prompt me to select networks from list but there isn't any G604-wireless of mine. I click further, it prompt, none of the networks you have previously connected to are in range. Thank you
