Chosen Solution
This is rather frustrating as it was working literally an hour ago but it suddenly stopped showing any networks at all, despite my phone still working and showing not only ours but the neighbours’, all of which have usually been picked up by my computer too. I’ve already tried uninstalling the driver on Device Manager, and I’ve done a system restore, neither to any effect. I’m slightly panicked as I need the Internet for job - can anyone advise? Thanks in advance.
This might be a simpler fix than you thought. Since it is an hp laptop, look at the function keys (the ones with f and then a number) Near the end at 11 or 12, there should be a little symbol that looks like something for wifi. There should also be a little light on that key as well. If the light orange or white? If its orange, then your wifi is off. Hold the fn key near the bottom left and then hit whichever key has the orange light. You will see it become white and then your wifi should work. If it is white or it still doesnt work. There is a bigger issue and we will then figure it out. Also if you dont have that key, whats your laptops model number? Hope this helps! If it did please hit the accept answer button!
