Acer V7 581 wifi problem

Acer V7 wifi fault.

Can anybody help me.  I have a new V7 ultra thin laptop. Great machine except it will not connect to my router. It connected ok for the first day or two, and then  would connect after re-start but now will not connect at all. Ive tried some of the obvious and some of the easy fixes mentioned in other acer wifi posts, switching on/off bluetooth, new driver, but still no connection.  Strangely it connects to my smart phone wifi tethered  and seems to behave normally. Ive reset router, reentered password a hundred times, and other laptops are fine on the router, so its not a router issue. Great machine, but tearing my hair out with this fault. Any ideas???

It would probably be helpful if we knew what kind of router to which you were attempting to connect.

Also, are you attempting to use encryption?  What type?

 

Did this occur after a particular Windows update?
