I have the following driver:
Realtek RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter
I have a pavilion dm4.

I plugged in an ethernet cable and I can get on the internet but this doesn't help so PLEASE someone give me insight. My wireless was just working yesterday. It says it's not enabled on my Network and Sharing center but it is and I tried to update the driver but it says that it is up to date with the best driver for my system when I try to update.

I do have two drivers, the Realtek one as well as another one listed for some reason:
Atheros AR8151 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.20)

Help?? I need to figure out how to fix my wireless.

Right click the wireless icon in system task tray bottom right of screen click open network and sharing center click wireless click enable.

Ethernet / Lan driver, Atheros AR8151 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.20)

Wireless card driver, Realtek one.

Reset the modem and wireless router.
