Hi.
My Thinkpad X61 suddenly cannot find any wireless device. It happened when I was downloading an antivirus trial version at school yesterday. It simply cannot locate any wireless device when I do "search for wireless ". I thought the school's network was down. But when I went home and put it next to the Verizon router, it stil says "cannot find network" when I clicked "search for WLAN". All WLAN configurations are correct (with non-key at my school and 10 digit WEP key at my home). But the signal itensity is 0%, with a "not assigned IP address". I clicked the link "help me solve this problem" and under "connection status" it says "error code 007, chosen wireless network out of range or inaccessible, please move to a closer position and retry". This is wrong because all my roomate's and labmate's computers have excellent wireless connections at home and school.
My question is, is it a software problem or a hardware malfunction? I need help!
I am doing research, and without a laptop that can go online is completely frustrating.
Thanks
