Do you have SSID broadcast enabled? And if the SSID is left default, you will have issue with not seeing your network.. change that so that you know it's your wireless first.
Make sure SSID is unique name. default is "netgear" and most people do not change it, but you need to.

when i have problems like that with mine i just un-plug it from power source for a few minutes,plug it back in and it starts showing up again .
