    HP Pavillion dv6000 wireless internet problem.

    I searched google but didn't find much that helps. I'm not usually one to ask for tech help with a pc, but eh.

    Last night I moved my HP Pavillion dv6000 laptop and since then the wireless does not work at all. It shows up in devices and even under network connections, but it is disabled and will NOT enable no matter what I do. I have no clue what happened in the span of time it took to move the laptop 10 ft, but something happened.

    Any ideas? I'm on win 7 ultimate 64.

    Doesn't that laptop have a slide switch on the front to turn the wireless on and off? Red for off (left) and blue for on (right) I believe.

      yep and its blue so i can't imagine that is the problem. I've also uninstalled the device and drivers and reinstalled everything but still no joy.

        Those laptops are garbage
        I have two that do the same thing.

          Im pretty sure its a hardware problem too. Mine would do it all the time when it got hot. You can search google and find tons of people bitching and moaning about it.

          I ended up getting one of those USB wireless model things to use when it stopped working.
