Laptop Keeps Sing Cnnectivity .......
10 Answers
Laptop (quite new) recently started losing connectivity to my wireless router.
When I switch laptop on, everything is fine at first, then after a while an icon (poss a yellow exclamation mark??) appears next to the "internet access symbol" (located in the bottom right hand corner of the screen) telling me that I have no internet access. When I try and open a web page, I get the message, "this page cannot be displayed" .... there's the option of "Fix problem", so I click this and it opens up "Windows Network Diagnostics". It fixes the problem and comes back with the following:
"Resetting wireless network adapter"
"Problems found:
the connection between your access point, router or cable modem and the internet is broken - detected"
"Problem with wireless adapter or access point - fixed".
It's doing this a few times, over the period that it's switched on and it's getting annoying now - anyone know why it's doing this and more importantly, how to fix it please ??

We have another laptop that connects to the same router - no problem with that one. Plus, my phone connects to the router when it's in range. The first time it happened, I tried connecting to the internet using my phone. It worked fine, so I think (??) it's safe to say that the problem is on my laptop and not with the router.
