No "Wireless Network Connection Status" button

Hi,
I am using WinXP home.
When I open the "Wireless Network Connection Status" window, I do not have a
"View Wireless Networks" button.

On my other computer with XP pro the button is there.

Both computers are online by wireless connection.

How do I get that button there?

Thanks,
AJS

Are you running Microsoft ZWC? Make sure it is running in the services.

Hi
Make sure that the Icon connection that you see in the Traybar is the
Wireless, and not the wire network card.

Sorry, it should be WZC (Windows Zero Configuration).
