I have been unable to connect via wireless recently because my computer will
not locate any networks. I let Windows diagnose the problem and get a
message stating that "the Windows Wireless Service is not running on this
computer". I am given an option to start Windows Wireless Service but am
then given a message that Windows cannot resolve the problem. This is a new
problem, I have used wireless many times with no issues. ANy ideas?
 
WLAN service depends on other services such as Extensible Authentication
Protocol, Native WiFi Filter, NDIS Usemode I/O Protocol and Remote Procedure
(RPC). Make sure they are running.

I have checked the dependencies and the items with gears by them are all
started. However, I'm not sure about Native Wifi Filter and NDIS Usemode. I
see them listed as dependencies but do not see them on the services list.
Where do I find them and start them if necessary?
