I moved about a month ago, and the first week or so, my internet connection and everything was fine. But then I ran into some problems..At first I could find all wifi networks except for mine and now I can't find any on my computer. My computer was built (not store bought) so I had to buy the wifi adapter separately. I have used it for over a year with no problems but now it can't find any connections stating "no connections are available" my wifi works on all other devices. All help is much appreciated.

When WiFi won't connect.

First, make sure your laptop is 'not' connected to the modem/router via an Ethernet cable and follow the steps:

1. Go to "Control Panel".

2. Next go to "Network and Internet" and then "Network and Sharing".

3. Now click on "Manage Wireless Networks".

4. On this screen, remove all wireless connections by "right clicking" on it and select "Remove network" from the drop down menu.

5. After doing this, close the windows and scan for the "Wi-Fi networks".

6. Click on the available network that you want to access and select "connect".

7. It takes a moment, but then you will be asked to give a password for your Wi-Fi connection. Type in the password and click the "connect" button.

It should now be...

NOTE: If this doesn't work, you may want to reset your modem/router, and then once it is fully loaded again, repeat the above steps.

If none of this works, then you may well need a new adapter.
