    Hello,
    First post so be gentle. :)

    I am having problems with my 6930. It is not reading any wireless networks. The light on the adpater is not showing orange. When I press the button, it shows on the screen that it is enabled. However, no light comes on and it does not read any networks. However, if I use a network cable i can connect to the internet. Does anybody have any help? Is it a faulty card? driver? Im lost. Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to NBR, tonyking73 :)

    Try deleting and then reinstalling the driver it at first. Also, remember to download the latest driver.

    If that does not work, try pressing the wireless button three times and see if you get any results. I used to do this before and it resolved my problem.

    If none of these work then you should perform a driver recovery or restore to an earlier point of time before the issue started showing up.
