Question

Can't connect to my Wireless network at home

Mar 9, 2016 11:13PM PST

My laptop "HP Pavilion" OS Windows 10 won't connect to my wireless network. My Router is brand new "Linksys" and I can connect with an Ethernet cable. It was working fine until 2 days ago. The other computers, tablets and smartphones connect. My computer can read the signal from the router, but can't connect to the router "No internet Access". Pinged my router with "Request timed out".

I tried..
-Resetting the router (with unplugging the cables and plugging them back in)
-Sfc scan now
-ipconfig release, renew, flushdns
-netsh winsock reset, netsh int ip reset
-installed updates, uninstall and reinstall the driver

I've looked all around many different forums online, but haven't found anything particular to solve my problem I have a wlan report and the main disconnect reasons says that "The driver disconnected while associating".

I Also talked to my service provider Novus and they mentioned that it could be a network card problem because I couldn't connect to my internet in SafeMode.

Any ideas? Help?

Does your laptop work with other wireless routers?
