Windows based system just made me aware of new term ‘troubleshooting’,
it never helped me in solving any of my prob. Know how you can actually fix
your Wi-Fi connection.
Using wireless
network needs to require some command and some expert things for making you out
of the Wi-Fi connection error problems. There can be many ways to re-connect
your error equipped Wi-Fi. Let us know all of them one by one.
Check if Wi-Fi device is Switch is on?
Many of the Laptop/portable devices comes with features of switch for Wireless network, makes sure you turned it on. It can be physical switch as in Lenovo Laptops or like Functions combination key as in Dell.
Don’t forget to
check the Windows Mobility center ([Win] +X) and see if Wireless device is
turned on?
Re-Check the IP of your Network:
First find it out
what type of your Network infrastructure is. Is it Manual IP based or Server
itself provides IP. If Manual IP needed, have some of these IP and try to enter
it as follow:
Open network and
sharing centre > Click on Connection > Properties > Internet Protocol
version 4(TCP/IPv4) >
Put your IPv4
Address, Subnet mask address, gateway address and DNS address. Of if it is
automatic for your network, ignore the previous address and select Obtain
Address automatically.

Disable/Re-Enable Wi-Fi device
Due to some error,
your Wireless device needs to be re-enabling so you can do this.
Open Network and
sharing center> Change Adapter setting
Select the Wireless
network device from the list of Devices and right click on it
Select Disable, This may ask administrator
permission, go ahead again right click on it and enable it.
Check status of Connection
Opening the
connection will show you send and receiving data on it and status of the
connection. Make sure it has continue sending/receiving bytes, received data
supposed to be more than sent.
Also click on
detail button and check if DNS and Gateway address is there (In case of DHCP)
Update Wireless device driver
In case nothing is
working, firstly restart and check your connection. After that you can get
ahead and open device manager>Network Adapter>
Click on your
Wireless device and update it from internet or the driver CD/DVD or latest
downloaded driver from manufacturer site.
Wait for ISP uptime again
In case nothing is
working make sure your ISP is providing you proper connection, check if other
device is working or not. If other is working, repeat same after restarting
your PC.
Ping to gateway IP
Open command prompt
and type
Ping [gateway IP]
If Ping is successful
recheck your IP address.
Also try to ping www.google.com or any other internet website. If
ping successfully receive data, your internet is working.
