Compaq laptop unable to find any wireless networks?

Compaq laptop unable to find any wireless networks?
My compaq laptop, which is vista home premuim is unable to find and networks at all. Even though my other 3 laptops are able to connect to my router with absolutely no problem whatsoever. When i try to connect to the router, no networks are shown at all. But if i connect through ethernet then i will have internet. Any ideas on this? i tried restarting and everything,

Restarting usually won't help with a problem like this. Is your router able to have connections for more than three laptops, or desktops? If not, that's the problem. If it can, I suggest turning off your router for no less than 15 seconds, then reconnect your Compaq Laptop first. Then the other two after, if you find that the fourth consecutive laptop will not connect, you need to upgrade your router to a more powerful one. Double-click on the Connections shortcut down next to the clock on your screen. Try to connect to a "Wireless" network there. If all else fails, ask someone who is computer savvy, such as a teacher, or someone who has a lot of laptops. Best of luck to you, and Merry Christmas! -iKandon

If you cannot see any networks, then your wireless switch on laptop is no on, turn it on. Routers can handle more than 3 laptops, ignore that comment.
