My Desktop has Wireless Access @ Full strength connectivity.

However,it isn't picking up any networks.

I can't think of any reason of whats wrong, other than the fact that my Comp's Wireless may be turned off?

So I have googled and searched my comp. I can't find where this switch is.

(my DSL is on)

Help!! WHERE IS THIS WIRELESS switch?

there is no switch, if you have wireless connectivity at full strength then there must be a network u are connecting to at full strength

What I meant is my Wireless must be on since the ICON is green.

However, it says that wireless network not available <-- This is what i'm confused about because my DSL is on.

does your DSL modem/ router have wireless capabilities?

start -> control panel -> adminstrative tools -> services -> windows zero configuration, click "restart" or "start" on the left pane

Edit: this post wasn't a joke, doing this will restart or start windows' 802.11 adapter and hopefully solve your problem

You are connected to your router, and can access the Internet, correct? If so, the fact that your router isn't showing up your network is weird, but may be due to some security settings. Some routers require you to punch in it's wireless ID in order to connect to it. Type the following into your browser:

192.168.0.1

It should bring up an admin page where you should be able to change security settings. If you don't know the username/password, try
1) leaving username/ password blank
2) username admin/ no password
3) username admin/ password admin

Post back how that goes.

you can also turn it off by using the software too, it should be somewhere in control panel and Network connection.
