Hello everyone,

My access connections is really messed up. It takes forever to do everything since I've come to NYU. I tried uninstalling it, but it's impossible to set up wireless internet through windows on my machine for some reason. I also uninstalled/reinstalled access connections, to no avail. Any ideas?

TIA

Try uninstalling Access Connections and all profiles with it (can be a pain to redo profiles, I know). Then uninstall the wireless NIC (make sure you have the newest driver downloaded first for your NIC and for your OS). Restart. Point the Wireless NIC install requirement to your new driver. See if that works. Then after you know you have wireless, install Access Connections.

...NIC? What's that?

NIC = Network Interface Card.

Wired NIC = Ethernet
Wireless NIC = WiFi

Your Device Manager will show both.
