I'm a working tech doing a lot of over the phone support to sytems sight unseen. One item that is a continual anoyance is wether the enduser has switched on/off the wireless radio. This has to be one of the least standardized items of the decade. To help others and I hope gather some new information I subit the following for what it's worth. Here is the latest update that I have at work.

If anyone has a laptop make or model that is not on this list, please let me know and I will add it as time permits. KMC Wireless Radio Switches Toggles & Key Combinations For 802.11(x) Equipped Computers Compiled by Kevin M.

Childers kchilder@removed to protect from spambots For Windows Based Computers If the drivers for the wireless adapter contain a setting to toggle wireless radio, it can be located using the following path: Start Settings Control Panel Right click Wireless Network Connection Icon Properties Configure Advanced tab Here you will find a textbox with a list of selectable properties that are populated by the device driver. Once you select a property there will be a value field with a dropdown box containing configuration options that apply to that specific property.

The name of the wireless radio property may vary because the listed properties are dependent on each specific device driver. It should be fairly intuitive to determine the correct property if you simply have the user read all the listed properties to you. Many Laptop manufacturers will place a physical switch on the outside casing of the Laptop, so that the user can easily toggle wireless radio. Sometimes these switches get accidentally turned off, or intentionally turned off and the end user forgets to switch it Back. The best practice in these situations is to ask the user to look for a physical switch on the case of the Laptop, possibly with a symbol of a radio tower next to it. After turning the wireless switch on, the user will probably need to refresh their network list. Laptops built by certain manufacturers may have a specific keystroke set up to toggle the wireless radio on/off.

Laptops built by certain manufacturers may have a specific keystroke set up to toggle the wireless radio on/off. Below is a listing by manufacturer of wireless radio software and hardware toggles that we have been able to document: ACER Acer (General) - Fn+F5 Aspire 1000/1640Z/1690/2012 - Launch Keys above the keyboard Aspire 16xx (General) the satellite-like launch button above the keyboard Aspire 2000 Series (less Aspire 2012, See Above) - Button on the Front of the Laptop Aspire 3005 on the lower right-hand side of your laptop Aspire 3500 - Aspire 4520 - top of keyboard right below the power button, the far left one is the wireless button.

An LED to the right of the strip lights to indicate the wireless is turned on. BTW, there is no real network that I am aware of with an SSID (named) 'Free Public WiFi'. I have been working for a company with an international clientel.

Many's the time an end user has called with a connection issue, on a public network and when asked what the network name is, replied, 'Free Public WiFi.' As far as I have been able to research, it is a remnant of some long gone Peer-To-Peer network that windows machines love to broadcast ad nauseum. Further more, not every place has wireless/wired connections for visitors/guest or in all areas.

When in doubt, check with the staff. Most hotels have paid tech support for thier network to assist guest. Call them first and they can usually get you online.

Calling company IT first may or may not, and often entails a call to the locations tech support anyway. Also if your company requires andy and all internet conenctions be made via a VPN connection, they usually have to authenticate your computer onto their network, manually. Good luck all you roadwarriors out there, we're here to back you up anyway we can. Your IT support team.

. Wireless internet SSID and other factors associated with Wi-Fi such as WEP and Wireless channel selection are explained here.

This article explains how to set up a wireless connection on your system through a Wi-Fi network. It also deals with the SSID, the Service Set Identifier, which is set manually through the client network settings. APs, or Access points, and WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) are also described. The article also provides information on different brands such as Acer, DELL, Compaq, Sony Vaio and many more. The first step for configuration is to determine what SSID, Channel, Mode and WEP you are using.

What is SSID? SSID is the acronym for Service Set Identifier which is the name of your wireless LAN. It is made up of 32 alphanumeric characters.

It can be set manually through your client network settings. Some wireless access points will automatically disable this feature in order to enhance their network security system. Wireless Channel Selection Access points, or APs, are used to automatically detect the channel selection. Your network can have various APs that will manage each channel selected and regulate their power. A wireless station will be load-balanced across the access points in order to enhance its bandwidth.

WEP WEP is a short term for Wired Equivalent Privacy, which is a system of data encryption used in a wireless network in order to allow authorization control for a 802.11 wireless local area network.
