Bluetooth speaker wont connect to laptop?


I'm having some trouble figuring out what to do here, my Bluetooth speaker wont connect and isn't even discoverable by my laptop. i want to connect my Bluetooth speaker to my laptop but when i go to Bluetooth settings my speaker does not show up on the list of devices. I have un-installed and re-installed the drivers, i've reset the Bluetooth driver management service and Bluetooth support services but still nothing is working, any help would be much appreciated.

just in case you need to know the specs.
speaker: Bush soundbar model-BSB02BT20
laptop: Hp Elitebook 8470p running windows 10

please help!

 

WiFi connect?

Using Windows 10 19041.630; Dell XPS13 laptop.

The area I've seen referred to as the quick options tray has an icon on it labeled "connect". Clicking that opens a menu that is headed "Searching for wireless display and audio devices". In a bit I see listed my Roku device and my Samsung TV set. Choosing the TV set, I get displayed (on the TV screen) a choice to connect. If I agree, my computer screen is displayed on the TV.

What is this service called? Is it WiFi direct connect - that is, the WiFi of my laptop connects to the WiFi of my TV set, without a router in the middle? Is it the same as Miracast? Is this connection method widely used?

 

Can't connect to the Internet, local connection only??

Hi guys,

I have a laptop here that refuses to connect to the internet over Wifi. Ethernet works fine but once I try to connect wifi it only connects as a local network without the internet.

I have tried a few different things like reinstalling the drivers, changing a few different settings in the registry but with out any luck.

Can anyone have any ideas? i have the flu at the moment and I just cant think straight and I need this fixed and out the door asap.

The laptop is running windows Vista 32
