Running Windows 7 Home Premium on a Lenovo E420 laptop.
I installed Unite, tried it, exited. Wireless no longer works, meaning no networks shown. Uninstalled Unite, ran hardware tests, made sure all software current. Made sure have latest BIOS, wireless turned on in BIOS. Confirmed IP4 properties set to obtain IP and DNS automatically. Can’t find any indication of a problem, just not showing any networks available at office or at home. But they are there because I can connect with other computer and with iPad. Wondering if something about Unite caused problem or if coincidence.
Tried all suggestions. Nothing has worked. Tried a system restore back to before I installed Comodo Unite. Didn’t help.
I tried Comodo Unite to see if I’d like it better than Teamviewer, which I use for remote access to my desktop from my laptop. I prefer Teamviewer. (And it has an iPad app.)
Here is some more info regarding my wireless problem.
Running Windows 7 64-bit on Lenovo E420 1141-A24. Wireless stopped working. Have tried an abundance of updates and fixes, including updating BIOS and making sure wireless is turned on there. Nothing has worked. Got this from a Lenovo hardware scan:

Pressing F9 indicates wireless on, but no networks showing in “currently connected to.”
For whatever reason, wireless appears not to be on, indications to the contrary notwithstanding…
Any idea how to force wireless to turn on? Or any other thoughts?
Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll take a look, but that really isn’t my issue now. I quickly decided that I like Teamviewer better than Comodo Unite. My issue now is trying to get my wireless to work. So far, no luck.
Tried a Linksys USB adapter, couldn’t get that to work. Loaded Puppy LInux into RAM, no wireless access with it, either. I seem to ge at a dead end.
I don’t remember the timing, but I had removed Comodo free firewall and installed Zone Alarm free firewall. Read on some forum that uninstalling Zone Alarm had solved a similar problem. Did that and my problem was solved–or so I thought. Connected to wireless just fine, all looked good, so I re-installed the Comodo firewall and rebooted.
No wireless again. Uninstalled Comodo, rebooted. Still no wireless.
Ran wireless troubleshooter, which said adapter was disabled. (Lenovo switch indicated wireless was on. Maybe it forgot to tell Windows. Or maybe I’m misunderstanding something.) Enabled wireless. Working again.
Re-installed Comodo firewall. Working OK. Rebooted, just to see if all still OK. It worked. Holding my breath. Hope this will be my last post.
