Have you enabled wireless here ?
Do you find any other secured/unsecured wif networks?
Click the WifiIcon in desktop and try windows 7 self Diagnosis.
what message you get ?
Have you disabled MAC white list ? try without any security key.
check screen shots here. wait....

hi..
yes , wifi is enabled.. MAC white list is disabled... on win 7 self diagnosis it couldnt detect any problems.. CAN i proceed according to the screen shots..? but BSNL didnt give me any password or may be i couldnt remember..

Yes follow the screen shots.
Try Unsecured ( No wireless key )
This is not a password. security keys. wep wpa etc .
Type against WPA Pre Shared key -a key , for example say 12345678 you can try" electroboy" later as a key.
from wlan : same key in router and here in system.

If you are using WAN MINIPort dialer to connect change to Always On mode .

Now go to your modem settings.
Change mode to PPPoE Always On Mode
( Enterstore ID/PW in modem wan page )
Enable DHCP in lan page Give range say 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.10.

In both systems TCp/Ip properties
Obtain Ip address automatically. Apply SAVE.

All the time I asssumed you are using only a laptop.


Which attachment of mine ? all Ok. Also posted as INSET pictures.

the tcp/ip properties are as u told... the pppoE setting is also as u told... still the same problem....

Your WiFi adapter in laptop may be faulty. Check using another WiFi device (laptop or mobile) and check if WiFi is working fine.

Restart modem and laptop, check if it is working fine after the restart.

Hope you tried accessing without encryption. It is not the white list which is to be disabled. You need to filter MAC filter itself. Check if that is the case.

Can you see other networks in your WiFi connections list ?

hi dilip,
checked with one more laptop too..same result.. further my laptop is able to connect to other connections so far...

i have gone to wireless/mac filter and there disable option

1. Add a white list for your laptop and check.

2. Disable antivirus /firewall and check.

3. Try " Connectify ".
