More info?)
Oliver is right, we need more info here. You also might want to check your
wireless adapter is working fine.
Check the device manager(my computer --> right click on properties -->
hardware tap --> device manager)
to see that whether your wireless adapter is working fine. If it has a
question mark on it, then it probably is not.
Check the version you are using and go to the manufacturer's website for
latest driver.
