4 ways to fix the computer cannot connect to WiFi

1. Reboot the router

This is the easiest way to fix WiFi connection related problems. To do this, power off the router by unplugging the power plug, then wait about 30 seconds and turn it on again.

2. Update or reinstall the driver

When the WiFi driver is outdated or damaged, you will have difficulty connecting to the network. Fortunately, fixing this problem is relatively simple.

To update the WiFi driver, right-click the My Computer or This PC icon and choose Manage - Device Manager - Network Adapter. Next, users simply right-click on the Wireless driver (if the WiFi has problems) or Ethernet (if the wired connection has problems) and select Update driver.

At this point, select Search Automatically for updated driver software for the computer to automatically download the driver, or select Browse my computer for driver software to manually update the driver.

If that doesn't fix the problem, the driver is most likely corrupted, right-click the My Computer or This PC icon and choose Manage - Device Manager - Network Adapter. Next, users just need to right-click on the Wireless driver and select Uninstall to uninstall, then restart the computer.

Next, right-click on the Network Adapter - Scan for hardware changes section to check for the hardware changes and the computer will automatically reinstall the corresponding driver.

3. Reset WiFi password

Then, users just need to find the Wireless - Change password and reset the new password, finally click Apply - OK to save. Note that the names and locations of the options may vary depending on the device you are using.
