Problems with Sony Vaio and connecting to wireless router - posted in Networking: I am having trouble with my Sony Vaio. We purchased it about a year ago and then in the fall purchased another, My husband took the first (black) laptop to the desert with him and was able to connect to the wireless connection no problem. Ever since he has came back and we purchased a D-Link routerit won't connect.
Sony VAIO laptop computers are designed to connect to the Internet quickly and easily. The wireless network adapter built into the computer ensures that wireless communication can be achieved once the initial set-up is completed. The wireless activation instructions are the same whether your Sony VAIO laptop runs Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Step 1
Step 2
Click 'VAIO Wireless Wizard.' Wait for a new window -- the Welcome To The VAIO Wireless Wizard screen -- to appear.
Step 3
Click 'Wireless LAN' on the Welcome To The VAIO Wireless Wizard screen.
Step 4
Click 'Setting up your Wireless LAN,' which is the second of the three options that appear.
Step 5
Click 'Yes' when the question 'Do You Want Help Connecting To A Wireless Router?' appears. A new screen called 'Router Selection' will appear.
Step 6
Choose the manufacturer and model of your wireless router from the drop-down menus on the Router Selection screen. Click 'Next' when the information is correct.
Step 7
Connect an Ethernet cord from the Ethernet connection slot on your VAIO to the wireless router when 'Please Connect' appears on the screen. Click 'Next' after you make the connection.
Step 8

Wait while the Wireless Wizard creates a wireless profile. When 'Configuration Completed' appears, disconnect the Ethernet cable.
Click 'No' when asked 'Do You Want To Connect More PCs To Your Home Network?' You have now activated the Sony VAIO wireless connection.
Tip
- Since not all Sony VAIO computers come with the Wireless Wizard already installed, you may need to visit Sony's eSupport page to download the program free of charge.

Hi,
I have a Sony Vaio laptop with wireless internet and have windows Vista.
The other day I was on a website and it appeared to start to download something I thought might be a virus so I panicked and turned off my laptop.
When I turned it on afterwards, an error message always comes up saying 'jjeueswb.exe has stopped working and has had to be closed' or something like that.
A byproduct of this is that I cannot get on the internet. The wireless connection is strong but there is a little exclamation mark next to the internet connection where there is normally a little blue circle.
When I go into the network it says I have limited connectivity and I am connected with limited access.
I get the feeling that something has gone wrong with my security settings when I turned off the computer in a panic but I really don't know what to do now.
I have tried going into internet explorer without add-on's and it still does not work.
Do you have any idea what I can do to sort out this problem?
Much appreciated.
