Network adapter not available
I have a1545 Inspiron - I set up my laptop to access my home network with no problem recently. In trying to my 1545 work in another building on my property (my residence) I have lost my adapter connectivity. I can see my network name on my second laptop but unable to connect.

The signal can be too weak to connect to it. Wireless only has limited range, which gets attenuated by having to go through walls and such.
See HERE for a chart on ranges for different wireless types. And Remember these are under Ideal conditions, your actual mileage may vary.. :emotion-1:

That is not the problem at present. I replaced the internal g card with the N. It worked beautifully after install and driver updates. I'm in the same room with the modem and router. I did something in trying to address the issue about working the other building on my property which is about 65 ft from my access point. When I attempt to connect to my network it tells me my network adapter is not available. The laptop sees my network but it will not connect. I have matched everything up to my other Inspiron 1545 which is working but, I can't seem to get this 1545 to work connect now.
