Hi all. I can't seem to connect to the internet on my laptop while my brother's laptop and my smartphone can. There is a red X on the wifi logo and it says no connections are available. I have tried resolving it by pressing the Fn + F3 key to turn on the wireless but it doesn't seem to work and the red X is still there after I rebooted the laptop. I do not know what to do now and hope that someone can help me asap. Thanks in advance!

    Press windows key logo + x

    select Network connections

    right click on the wifi adapter and check if it's enabled

     

    also check if any updated drivers is available:

    This is supposed to fix it, thanks to XDA Forum.

     

    1- goto Settings > WiFi settings
        2- long-press on Connection
        3- Select “Modify network config”
        4- check the “Show advanced options” tick.
        5- select proxy settings to Manual
        6- proxy host name , input the value from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.225
        7- Proxy port = input one of them “8080” , “3128” , “80”
        8- press the “Save”.
        9- turn wifi off and the On, you will not see the message “”Sign into Wi-Fi network”
        10-now repeat the steps from 1 ~ 4
        11- and revert back the proxy settings to “None”, its Done.
        12- you will be fine with this network.
