Fix 1: Restart Your Laptop

A restart can clear temporary Windows and network problems. If the Wi-Fi stopped working after the laptop had been running for a long time or after waking from sleep, this is a sensible first step.

  1. Save your work.
  2. Open Start.
  3. Select Power.
  4. Choose Restart.
  5. After Windows starts, reconnect to your Wi-Fi network.

If the connection still doesn’t work, move to the next fix.
