    Hi,

    In Windows 7 the Wireless Zero Configuration service is replaced by WLAN AutoConfig service. I would suggest you to check in services if the service is started and set to automatic.

    Step 1: To open services, click Start, type ‘services.msc’, press enter and then click Services.

    Step 2: Double-click on the WLAN AutoConfig service.

    Step 3: Click on ‘Start’ to start the service.

    **Step 4:**Click the  General tab. Verify that the service has not been disabled in the Startup Type box. If it has, click Automatic to have it start when you start the computer.

    Hope the information helps. Please post back and let us know.
