Why my Wireless connection is not working on my laptop?

Wireless problemsI have a similar problem with my laptop. I have a Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook, one that has been great over the past year for college, etc. However, my wireless internet connection suddenly went off the other day with no warning, with the modem showing that there was no local network and the laptop showing no available connection. First thing to do - check wireless is turned on. It sounds basic, but sometimes the switch can get knocked, meaning that the laptop won't recieve any wireless signal. If this doesn't work, play around with the settings for a while - if you're running Windows you can go to 'network connection' in Control Panel and right-click on your wireless connection; go to 'repair' and the repair wizard will go through it to try and fix it. Make sure both the wireless switch on your laptop is turned on, and that your modem is turned on too.If this doesn't work, go to your modem's setup page (usually a web page - the address will be in the manual) and choose a different wireless channel - 0, 6 and 11 are the only non-overlapping channels. You may want to adjust your wireless signal power to make sure you have enough signal. You might also want to run a diagnostic on your modem to see if it is running properly. Some modems will display on the setup page which computers are active. See if yours comes up.If this still doesn't work, you may want to go to an internet cafe or other wireless hotspot to check whether it is your modem which is at fault. If you get a signal and can connect, then it may well be the modem at fault. Check at some other locations just to be sure. If not, it sounds like the wireless card has a problem. If it is an internal wireless card, you might want to take it back to the manufacturer for repair. If it is an external wireless adapter, you may just want to replace the card or adapter to see if this helps.

What does a modem and how is it related to binary or ASCII code?

A modem, short for modulator/ demodulator, "packages" data that is being transmitted so it fits whichever transfer protocol it's working with. That includes chopping up the data to the proper packet sizes, adding error-checking bits and addressing info, etc. It also does the opposite with received data, "unpacking" it so your computer can work with it.

Will a wireless router work when it is connected to a desktop computer that doesn't have a wireless card?

Are you asking if the computer will get internet? If so... Yes. as long as the router is connected to a modem via network cable and also connected to the desktop computer via network cable.The computer will not connect to the wireless signal sent out by the router. Without a wireless card, it will only work if it is hard patched via network cable to a working modem. If you are asking if the wireless router will still work, even when its connected to a desktop computer with out a wireless card, the answer is also yes. and i this situation, a wireless card in the computer is completely irrelevant so I'm guessing this is not what you meant.
