How to manually connect to a network on Windows XP?
Yuki C asked:
I added a password to our wireless network, and I can connect to it fine on my laptop, and our two other computers. But on one when I click on View Wireless Networks, there is nothing there. And when I take away the password, it connects automatically. And it still shows that there are no wireless networks available. Is there a way I can connect to the network manually?

Uh, does your network have a name? Also I think if you input the settings after pressing the ‘start’ button then going to Connect To>Show All Connections there should be settings, but I don’t really know. What are you using for your wireless network? Linksys, Netgear, Belkin? And what about the frequency? That may or may not have an impact on it.

If it’s not showing up, you are probably changing a setting on the router about broadcasting, or in layman’s terms, “I’m not here!”
If you go into View Wireless Networks, there should be a link on the left for “Change the Order”. A new window will show up, which will include an “Add” button. The rest should be easy enough.
