(new/other) WIFI Networks not shown

[Guest Andreas Spamer-Schmidt]

Hi there,

 

 

my laptop is run with windows 8

 

 

In the past I was able to connect with new/other WIFI networks (e.g. in hotels) without any problem. Now I discovered that only "known" WIFI networks are shown with which I can connect without any problem.

 

 

WIFI router works without problem (was able to connect with my smart phone and tablet easily).

 

 

I am using McAfee LifeSafe and checked with their hotline. Even after having de-activated all features of McAfee problem could not be solved.

 

 

What can I do that new/other WIFI routers/networks are shown again in the list of available networks?

 

 

In a nutshell:

 

- WIFI router in perfect function

 

- smart phone and table easily connected

 

- laptop doesn't show available networks also after having de-activated Internet Security software (McAfee)

 

 

Looking forward to your ideas. There must be something that I can change as it used to work in the past without any problem...

 

 

Many thanks to all who might have an idea.

 

 

3 Cheers

 

 

Andreas
