recently i purchased a Acer Aspire notebook. I wanted to use a wireless broad band connection as i had a bsnl type 4 modem in which there is a built-in router.
I was able to find the name of that network (SSID) in the available wireless networks list. When i clicked on connect it asked me the security key and i entered it (i had called bsnl for the configuration of my modem,which i had done accordingly) then it took some time n said tht windows cannot connect to (the name of the network).Then i called bsnl, they asked me check sumthing n said that 'wireless zero configuration' is not present, contact ur manufacturer for it.
I called Acer, thry said in windows vista, everything is preinstalled, there is a network problem in ur modem. I said bsnl about it and they said tht it has to be a hardware problem.
What exactly is the problem???plz help me...what is wireless zero configuration...is it required to connect to a wireless network...what should i do to connect to my wireless network in my computer????
Yes there is a wireless zero configuration preinstalled in windows vista and it must be started
To start Wireless Zero Configuration in Windows Vista you need to log in as an Administrator.
■Click on Start and Control Panel
■Select Administrative Tools and then Services
■In the Services box scroll down the list of Services (Local) until you find the one labelled Wired AutoConfig and double click it.
■In the Wired AutoConfig Properties (Local Computer) box change the Startup type to Automatic
■Click on Start and once the service has started click on OK
■Now find the service labelled WLAN AutoConfig and double click it.
■In the WLAN AutoConfig Properties (Local Computer) box change the Startup type to Automatic
■Click on Start and once the service has started click on OK
■Go to File and Exit to close the Services window
good luck, Mark
If wireless zero configuration is already started, then something else is wrong.
