Please help me, thank you very much.

Because you had McAfee installed you need to use the special uninstall procedure to remove it completely from your system per the link below.
http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=TS101331

You may have better luck using WPA2 security with AES encryption rather than the outdated, unsecure and slower WEP security. You can change these settings in the routers control panel.

You appear to have a valid IP here so most likely something is blocking or interfering with the connection.

You will also want to disable the Microsoft virtual adaptor by using the following commands at an elevated command prompt, typed or copy/paste them one at a time hitting enter after each one.

netsh wlan stop hostednetwork

netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=disallow

chev65, are you, by the way, the same person from eight forum?
I did what it took to uninstall mcafee, yesterday, I read it from eight.

There's no WPA2 with AES security in my router security option. There's only 3 options, WEP, WPA-personal & WPA-enterprise. Maybe because my router is already old. I'm considering buying a new one in the future.

I just disabled the Microsoft virtual adaptor. And it's still not working.

On 2nd of November, as far as I remembered, I was just playing games, browsing for a little while and working. No update whatsoever. I set my windows update on manual. Plus, before I posted in this forum I did the system recovery back to 30th of October. Then I proceeded to uninstall my remaining Mcafee and the newly ZA. And it didn't work at all.

And by the way I just ran the diagnose in my wifi network. Perhaps it will help.

Yes, the WPA Personal is the same as WPA2.

You will also have much faster connection speeds if you set the router to use the 802.11n Only setting as opposed to the mixed settings.

It's best to test the wireless with the wired connection either unplugged or disabled because Windows will use the wired connection if both are active.

As for the anti virus software, it's best to keep them uninstalled or disabled until after the connection is fixed.

Did you say that you were unable to uninstall the anti virus software's?

Yes I'm the same chev65 as on the Windows 8 forum.

By doing this will it help me out to resolve my problem? Because I don't want to cause any other problem for others in my house. No offense, I'm just worried.

Yes I did unplug the wired connection. It's still not working at all. The weird part was the signal now showing some irregularities. Sometime the yellow sign came up sometime it didn't. But even without the yellow sign warning the internet still not working.

I also use torrent to check my connection out. And it's not working and only, occasionally, it had some super slow 0.1 KB/s and no more than 0.1 KB/s. Either no connection or 0.1 KB/s.

As for the anti virus software, it's best to keep them uninstalled or disabled until after the connection is fixed.

Did you say that you were unable to uninstall the anti virus software's?

I'm without antivirus at all right now. No, I meant that even without antivirus it wasn't working.

Yes I'm the same chev65 as on the Windows 8 forum.

That's nice. Without you mentioning on how to unistall the remaining Mcafee, I would not know that there's still some leftover from mcafee. Thank you for that.

Ok the security you are using is over 10 years out of date. You need to make those changes to the routers settings by using WPA personal with AES encryption.

This outdated security can be part of the problem so this needs to be changed.

You will most likely need to delete the old wireless profiles for everyone using this wireless then make a new profile, do this after making the changes to the routers settings.

Did you run the commands to disable the Msoft virtual adaptor?

I ask this because the virtual adaptor is becoming famous for creating connection problems.

If you can run the following command in an elevated command prompt then let me know the results of the scan.

 sfc /scannow

thanks Chev 65,I got a similar problem with my sony vaio and I tried all the three commands on elevated command prompt and rebooted my laptop. It resolved my wifi connectivity issue.
sfc actually repaired some corrupted file. So I think this was the actual fix for me.
