Wireless setup in Windows 7 is simple. Please go to Control Panel --- Network and Internet, click on Connect to a network. This will start the network connection list in Notification area. Let me know if your home wireless network is listed.
If not, check if wireless network card is enabled. There should be a switch on the computer which controls the wireless network card on or off.
Meanwhile, please help me confirm following questions:
1. Is there any other computer connected with wireless connection?
2. Is it a public wireless network, or a wireless router? If it is a router and there is no other computer can help detect wireless connection, we should access router settings to see if wireless function if enabled. Answered Dec, 18 2010

The way is to laboriously track down each fault and fix the problem, perhaps that requires a newer version of the application or chasing down bugs (if they exist) and suggested fixes..

Even more laborious, actually debug or troubleshoot the OS with some debugger program http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-debug/

Scenario 2: Using strace=The strace command is a powerful tool that shows all of the system calls issued by a user-space program.

ALSO TRY THIS::

In network manager make sure that IPv6 is set to none or ignore.

If that does not resolve it: (From this site http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2008/03/msg00058.html )

There seems to be two kernel modules for your device. 8139too and 8139cp. 8139too is the correct driver. If both are being loaded, it may cause a conflict.

If 8139cp is being loaded you will need to remove it.

CODE: SELECT ALL (modprobe -rv 8139cp).

Run CODE: SELECT ALL (lsmod | grep 8139)

to verify that only the 8139too module is now loaded.

Verify your network works by pinging an external site, one such as http://www.kernel.org or http://www.google.com

If this resolves your problem, refer to the link to the debian site above for instructions on permanently blacklisting 8139cp
