    Can't connect to wireless network


    I'm currently having issues connecting to my home's wireless network. All devices besides my laptop are connecting to it just fine though. The problem only started this morning, and I've already reset my wireless adapter, computer, and router a couple times. This has happened once before, and I just wiped my PC because I couldn't find a solution. I'd prefer to not do that again.

    It's an Acer Aspire v5-571. Thanks in advance

    EDIT: I just did a system restore and everything works fine now. This can be closed

    Look through any recent windows updates to see if around the same time an update was installed, this problem occurred: Windows Update - View Update History Details

    Did anything get installed or an application update recently? Don't forget to check your antivirus for recent updates. Some 3rd party antivirus softwares can at times conflict with windows due to a faulty update, etc. Please let me know which AV you are using.

    DO make sure every driver is updated (using another computer and a USB drive, for example). If every driver is updated and you still experience problems, try installing a previous version of the wireless LAN driver.
