I can access internet without problem if I start it normally, but not so in safe mode with networking.
In device manager the USB2.0 wifi adapter is enabled and shows as working correctly.
Yet I cannot connect to the internet.
I wonder why...

Would appreciate any suggestions.

So the drivers and device appear to be functioning correctly; do you see any wireless networks? Do you have the icon for wireless networks? What does the Network & Sharing Center show?
