Wi-Fi problems are usually software, but sometimes the wireless card fails. Here are the fixes in order of likelihood.
6 Fixes- 1. Toggle Airplane mode off/on and restart both the laptop and router.
- 2. Forget and reconnect to the network with the correct password.
- 3. Run the Windows network troubleshooter.
- 4. Update or reinstall the Wi-Fi driver in Device Manager.
- 5. Reset the network stack — command prompt: netsh winsock reset, then reboot.
- 6. Check the hardware switch/Fn key that some laptops use to disable Wi-Fi.
If other devices connect fine but your laptop never sees any network, the Wi-Fi card or antenna may have failed — an inexpensive replacement a technician can fit quickly.
