I have a Dell Studio 1537 laptop with a 64-bit operating system. The wireless Internet no longer works for some reason. When I switch it on, it never is able to find any networks, even though on my college campus there is always access to networks. Whenever I click diagnose the probem, it only says that I should turn on the switch that activates the wireless network, but it's already on! This is highly problematic and frustrating. I have tried restarting the computer and that doesn't fix the problem, so I'm not sure what will.
Wireless Problem on Laptop
- Thread starter Kaabi
- Start date
Any idea on exactly how to do that? And why would wireless suddenly stop working when it had been working for so long before? I just don't get it. Does it have something to do with me starting to use the Ethernet cord, because before I started with that it always worked. But even after I had started using it, I could still switch to wireless sometimes.
