"Wireless Networks Are Available", but my "Connect To" list is emp

[Guest]

I can't detect any new wifi connections, even though the network icon on my
taskbar says that "wireless networks are available". when I click that, the
"connect to a network" window appears, but it says "Windows cannot find any
additional networks". I can still manage to connect to my previous wifi
connections that i have saved up and set them to automatically connect when
they are available...but i can't detect/add new ones. Come to think of it,
even my existing connections don't show up. Not even public wifi hotspots
show up.

I'm currently on Vista Business Edition, using a Sony Vaio SZ48.

Cheers.

Hi Vincent,

I don't have a specific answer to your question, but you might find a
solution in this Windows Vista Help topic:
http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/Help/7805207d-b0b9-4159-b36f-ab81a1f376c21033.mspx.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the link, but I've already went through that site earlier and my
problem still persists.

This problem only started a couple of weeks back. Before that, wifi hotspots
were detected fine. I'm afraid that some Vista update might have screwed up
my wireless, but I highly doubt it. Or it could be a Vaio update instead....
