I'm facing the same problem too! I think it has something to do with the OS. I have two laptops, one running on Windows 7 64-bit and the other one on Windows 8 64-bit. They often could not detect my Wf-fi signal. However my other PC running on Windows 7 32-bit has never encountered this problem.
I have used the method suggested by fellow forum member WebWalker. It resolves the problem, but not every time.
Sometimes when the above method fails, I have to turn off the laptops, then turn off the wi-fi router, turn the wi-fi router on again. Then only I turn on my laptops and see if they could detect my wi-fi network. It works most of the time.
