  • wireless connection lost

    I'm on family computer at the moment. Can't access the internet on my laptop. It just went.

    I turned it off and then on again and when I went onto Tools and set up it had Draytek connection there, but when I said connect it said it couldn't.

    Help!

    Silly question but have you accidentally turned off the wireless facility. On my laptop there is an on/off button at the front of the computer and I have been known to accidentally switch it off! :o

        I had a similar problem recently. In my case it was F2 key.

                      Sorted now. I turned off the computer and turned off the wireless router thingy and then turned them back on. Normal services have been resumed.

                      I need a drink now!
