My laptop isn't picking up Internet?

So my wireless is turned on, I'm currently connected to it on my iPhone, iPad and my sisters laptop. However, when my laptop searches for Internet, it shows neither my wireless, or my neighbors which is also discoverable by my phone (although locked). What can be the problem? I have Windows 7, it used to work and find the Wi-Fi, then in an attempt to put a password on my Wi-Fi, I'm guessing I must have changed the settings? Any help?

On the side of your laptop is there a wireless cut off switch? It will be a switch, green on red off, with a laptop logo and a wireless Signal coming off it. Thats on my Lenovo t420. If that does not work you can try looking through your computer settings till you find internet/wireless.

Um on the right hand side there should be a slidey button type thing near where you put cd's in, try that. I'm sorry i'm not a computer genius, whenever i lose Wi-Fi i press that.

  • Worth picking up an Iphone 4 for $279? It's not the S model, I don't believe, but is that a good price? Or can I find something significantly better for the price? If so, please drop some names for me. Would prefer if this was an established brand - respect by both buyers and tech-savvy reviewers (Cnet.com, etc).
  • Why isn't my internet on my laptop working? DNS server? My internet on the home computer is working and my iPhone is working as well. On my laptop it says that I'm connected to my network. However, when I try to open up Chrome or Firefox, it won't connect to any pages. Chrome keeps saying that DNS server isn't available. Does anyone know hwo to help?
  • Why is my laptop not picking up my Wi-Fi but my iphone is? I have an 'Acer Aspire One Happy 2' laptop that runs on windows 7. I have just gone to my grans and her Wi-Fi works fine on my Iphone 4 but my laptop is not even picking up the signal. My laptop works fine at the Mcdonalds round the corner from me so why isn't it working here. I even typed it in manually and it didn't work, its not picking up any signal at all
  • Can I track my laptop even when it isn't connected to internet? I have a 2016 MacBook and it was recently stolen, I was wondering if it was possible to track it even if the "thief" wasn't connected to the internet. Plus I don't have any extra anti theft things installed. But it is installed on my cloud so I think I should be able to view it on my iPhone…
