Hi and welcome to TSG.

Sounds like you may be missing the wireless drivers.

Can you give us the details of your computer (brand, model number operating system, etc.) and exactly how you did the recovery (from a recovery partition on the hard drive, recovery discs that came with the computer, recovery discs you created on the computer)?

Check if your wireless adapter's driver is still installed properly. It is very likely that the wireless adapter is no longer installed properly in your computer. If that is the case, reinstall the adapter's driver. That should do the trick.

Hello I have a hp media ceter PC m7470n 2005. I System recovery'ed it by clicking f10 when the windows was starting up. After that no internet access can be made.

According to the HP web site, the m7470n includes a hardwired LAN port. There is no wireless hardware in it as far as I can tell.

So what does that mean =o , i cant fix it or anything? or do i have to reinstall my adapter drivers?

[cwwozniak]

It means that your computer did not come with any wireless hardware installed. You can either use the existing wired Ethernet port or purchase and install a wireless adapter.

Are you saying that you were able to use a wireless network connection on that computer at one time but then it stopped working?

[roflcopter123]

Its like My router is in another room , so i brang my pc to plug in the ethernet. Then when i tried using another router it worked and then i switched back to my original router then it started to work all good.

I am not sure if I am not wording my questions clearly or if I am having trouble understanding your answers. In either case, it may be time for someone else here to try and help you work out your problem.

[roflcopter123]

okay , can somebody else help me

Hi! Can you tell me if you have installed a wireless adapter in your computer before. Coz you mentioned earlier that you were connected wirelessly before you got disconnected after performing recovery. Also, if you can may post here what your device manager looks like, that will really help. Thanks.
