  1. Problem connecting or even detecting new wifi network on WIndows 10 laptop


    Hello, I recently moved and got set up with a new ISP. My phone and chromebook were both able to detect and connect to the new wifi network without any issue. However, although my Windows 10 laptop can connect to the internet using an ethernet cable the wifi doesn't even show up in my available networks. It had no issue connecting to the wifi network yesterday at my old place. I've tried to add the network manually, and it actually shows up in my known networks in wifi settings, but it is still nowhere to be seen in my available networks so I have no option to connect to it. I've also tried m

    Home wifi network not detected

    I moved into a new apartment and my personal laptop with Windows 10 does not detect the wifi network.

    - My work laptop with Windows 10 detects and connects to the network, as do my iPhone and iPad.

    - My personal laptop detects other networks in the building but not mine. The drivers on this laptop are up to date and were last updated at least a year prior to my move. This laptop has no problem connecting to the public networks it detects.

    Does anyone know where the problem might be? I'd appreciate any help.

    Thanks!

    Can not find my new network/wifi

    I switched to a new internet provider. My laptop (Lenovo with Windows 10 Pro) is not detecting the new wifi/network.

    * I tried the "trouble shooting" and "manually connect" options, but my laptop still does not detect the new wifi.

    * The laptop detects my "old" wifi (I have two internet providers at this moment and plan to disconnect the "old" wifi once I have everything working.)

    * My Lenovo laptop is the only device that does not detect the new wifi/network. All other devices (1 PC/desktop, 1 Mac, and 2 iPhones) detect and can connect to the new wifi/network.

    * My old wifi and other networks from the neighbors are showing up on the list.

    * I have restarted the modem/router, but that did not help.

    Given the above, it is clear that the problem is with my laptop and not the new modem/router.

    Is there anything else besides what I have already tried?

    Thank you in advance!

    Laptop Sees Wireless Network but Cannot Connect To It

    I have a small ASUS laptop that has recently had issues connecting to the home wifi network. After I type in the wifi password it displays a loading bar and then says Can't Connect to Network. I have tried every fix I could think of: disable/reenable adapter, uninstalling the adapter and reinstalling it, rebooting the laptop, rebooting the router, and troubleshooting the adapter. The laptop is running and Windows 10 and does not have an ethernet port. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
