Can anyone help please? I have lost wireless connection on my laptop but it's fine on my tablet. Any ideas please as to how I can remedy it. I have checked all connections to router and all seem ok. Thank you Sue

The first thing I do when something goes wrong it to restart my lappy......seems to work 90% of the time or you could do a system restore back to a previous date.

Turn it off and let it reboot ....normally works for me

Sometimes happens to mine. First stop is to reset the router. (Yip sounds like a joke but turning it off for a few mins then back on sometimes helps ) then if still no joy right click on the wireless icon in the task bar and click on diagnose connection problems (try this first if you want) then if still no luck laptop off then back on. Also make sure you haven't hit the wireless connection button if your laptop has one which I did when I'd had a tipple one night and couldn't work out why the laptop hated me so much

Agreed about restarting, works most of the time.

Oh thanks so much all. I had switched ut off and back on several times with no joy. Have justvtried again and same ...........nothing. Realised I had been fiddling with the volume on the f11 key and had hut the wireless key accidentally. The things you learn...........didn't even know it was there hahahaha.........Sue

A lot of lappys have a hardware button to switch wireless on and of. You haven't accidentally switched it of with that , have you?


Crossed posts - looks like you did

try pressing the wirless key most lappys i think is F3 looks like a radio transmitter mast.also if by any chance your router may have been disconnect sometimes [happened to me few times] if there is a WPS button on Router press it when you connect
