Resetting wireless settings on Vista
Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew how to reset or get rid of all the
wireless settings/networks on a vista laptop. I'm new to wireless networking
and Vista. I set up a home network and a wireless connection for the laptop.
I can now connect to the internet, but in the process I set up more than one
wireless network and keep having problems staying connected to the internet.
Also, I have a nintendo Wii and can't connect to the wireless network with
it. I've tried many different things but now I just want to get rid of all
the settings, networks, etc. and start fresh. I would've done a system
restore but don't have a restore point. Does anyone know how to do this?
thanks

-Camilo

I have an HP laptop with built in wireless and a linksys WRT54GS wireless
router with a DSL broadband connection.

RE: Resetting wireless settings on Vista
Prbably the easiest way to get rid of the settings is to delete all the
connections that you setup. Proably need to to reboot when you have deleted
them and then you can start over with all new connections....AC

I'm in the same boat... want to delete all wireless network settings and
start over. What do you mean by 'delete all the connections that you setup'?
