Can not find a network

I am trying to connect using a wireless connection, I have the wireless set
up, but when I search on "view available networks" there is nothing listed.
When I use "Network Stumbler", it shows several networks including the one I
want to connect to.

What do I have to do to make the Microsoft connection see the same networks
that are available?

Wait for Vista. It will show non-broadcasting networks, XP won't.

Hi

First, make sure that your computer is not running both the original, and
windows Wireless utilities, http://www.ezlan.net/wireless.html

If the Network that you are trying to connect to is yours, make sure that
the Wireless Router/Access Point is On, and set correctly.

If there are other Wireless Networks in the neighborhood and they do not
appear in your available Networks. It means that they are not open Wireless
Sources, and they do not want you to use their connection. In such a case,
you should respect their privacy (in many cases it might be illegal to use
other Wireless Networks that is not public hot spots).
