Hi @Metal_Head ,
The snapshot shows that you are connected to an unidentified network with limited capabilities.
To troubleshoot the wireless you need to remove the Ethernet cable.
If you right click on the Network and sharing center , disconnect the connection you have and connect to your router.
Thanks.

Hey @Metal_Head ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read about your HP Pavilion 15-e001ax Notebook not showing my wifi while connected through the Ethernet Cable. It will only show you one connection at a time and will not show the Wireless connect while connected via Ethernet.
Here is a document to troubleshooting Wireless Network and Internet Windows 8, if you need it.
The HP Support Assistant will help reinstall any drivers and software that was on the Notebook at the time of build.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

This is regarding my other question at: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Wireless-Internet-Home-Networking/Error-quot-Wireless-devices-not-found...
Hi @Mrstenter
Thanks for your reply but the troubleshooting was of no use. Even when I unplug the ethernet cable, no WiFi networks are shown (see image, thisi s different from earlier when there was an error message under Wireless devices).
The WiFi light on F12 has now gone white from red/dark orange, after installing updates from HP. This happened between now and when I posted the question.
Meanwhile, can you give the Wireless Adapter's model name, it maybe needed?Thanks.
