Enable Wireless networking in Windows Server 2008

When installing Windows Server 2008, you probably noticed that you can’t connect to a wireless network. In fact, Windows Server 2008 is unable to find wireless networks. This is not a problem with your wireless card or its driver. It’s due to a security feature of Windows Server 2008.

To be able to connect to a wireless network with Windows Server 2008, you need to start the corresponding service (which is by default stopped). To do this:

  1. Open the Server Manager and click Configuration and then Services;

    Server Manger configuration window

    Server Manger configuration window

  2. Click WLAN AutoConfig and click the Start button;

    WLAN AutoConfig service

    WLAN AutoConfig service

  3. Now you can connect to your wireless network as you do with Windows Vista.

I hope this will help. Thanks!
