    No SSID shown on Samsung NP-R719, atheros AR9285


    Hello,

    I'm stuck with an issue on a NP-R719 laptop.

    Wlan with AR9285 chip seems correctly installed, but no SSID is shown and so, internet connection isn't possible. I tried Samsung'site original driver for that model, and 3 other versions from Atheros site, but nothing change.

    The user has mistakenly started Samsung's factory restore, and has stopped it...the W7 Home premium is OK with everything ; only wlan isn't ok anymore.

    There is a visible SSID in that house, and i can connect flawlessly with another laptop, or a smartphone.

    Wlan physical button is ON.

    Please help....

    Thanks in advance

    regards

    GM

    Some identifiers can be set manualy as well as automatically generated, some don't broadcast for safety. Have a look at this article, it might help.

    As I'm sure you know you require a driver.
    Also try Troubleshoot Network and Internet Connectivity

    By the way, there is an SSID broadcast in that case. Troubleshoot Network and Internet Connectivity doesn't help, it just said "there is a problem with the card driver" at the end of the test.
