Yellow symbol shows over my wifi SSID!!!!

Hello,

Yellow symbol means, Internet connection gets limited or no connectivity. There are a number of reasons why this yellow symbol will show-up. Most Internet connections will not work if this yellow icon is there, unless it disappears. In your case, you can browse websites however, it has this yellow symbol showing. I doubt that it will but I take your word on that.

• Here is my say on how to get rid of this yellow symbol in your SSID.

1. Wireless is showing connected but you cannot browse websites.
2. Possible problem is Network Security Key. You need to manually type the network security key to make sure that it is remembered by the wireless adapter correctly.
3. Right click on your SSID in the system tray then left click on properties.
4. Choose either WPA/WEP or whatever security type you set-up and type your network key on the field provided.
5. Click OK then the yellow symbol will disappear.

• Wireless is showing connected but yellow symbol is showing but you've entered the network security correctly.

1. Possible problem with this is the Internet connection itself, which can be fix by identifying the problem with your modem and router.
2. To fix this issue, a sequenced power cycle is needed.
3. Power off your modem and router for about 1-2 minutes, then turn on the modem on and your router, wait for additional 1-2 minutes until the lights turns solid.
4. This usually fixes the problem, and most likely the yellow symbol will change it's status to connected.

If everything fails, possible problem are either Wireless Network Card driver is not properly installed and or the Internet connection itself, and your next step will be to call your ISP.

When you see a yellow triangle icon with an exclamation mark on the system tray, it is normally caused by buggy drivers or incorrect network setup. To troubleshoot the problem, first, try updating your network card’s driver. If you are connected via Wi-Fi, try updating the driver for your Wi-Fi adapter. If you are already using the latest driver, try to uninstall and reinstall the driver.

Right-click “My Computer” then select “Properties”. Go to “Hardware” tab then click “Device Manager”. On the next screen, expand “Network adapters” then right-click your Wi-Fi adapter and select “Uninstall”. Restart the computer then install your Wi-Fi adapter again. See if this works. If this doesn’t work, try removing the wireless profile then add the target network again.

If this doesn’t fix the problem, right-click the yellow triangle icon on the system tray then select “Troubleshoot problems” and then follow the instructions.
