Wifi Adapter Issue

Timjay · Apr 5, 2017

Dear Forum members,

I have an Asus X54C laptop running Win 7 64 bit. I am not finding any connections although the router is on and working with other devices. I pressed fn + F2 and a graphic said the adapter was on but when I run Windows diagnostics it says the adapter needs turning on? I reinstalled the driver but all I get is a red cross over the wifi symbol and "No Connections Available" I have also checked that the windows power save made is turned off.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

many thanks

Try this....

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 open windows and reboot the computer.

6. Once the computer is fully reloaded, scan for the "Wi-Fi networks".

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

8. 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 connected.

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 this doesn't work, test seeing if your laptop will connect via Ethernet. If so, then your WiFi card may be going. You can either look to replace it/have it replaced, or get an external (plugs in via USB) WiFi card.
