My husbands MSI A5000 laptop suddenly stopped being able to get on the internet. It says he is connected but he can not accessing the internet. It was working fine until he hurriedly put it in its case to catch a plane and thought maybe he hit a key or button shutting off the internet. We have tried the fn+f11 button with no luck. Thanks for any suggestions.

SOURCE: My advent netbook will not connect to wireless

Have you tried to connect using the same internet connection at all times? (sorry, just to be sure). Try to dissable the adapter via device manager, restart the computer and once windows is fully loaded up, re-enable it. If it did not fix it, look for the latest drivers in the laptop manufacturer's web site and install them. That should get it fixed. Good luck.

MSI U120 Netbook Internet Connection Problem? After months of working at an adequate level, the netbook stopped detecting wireless networks. What happened? There's nothing wrong with the internet. The...

At times, a netbook or notebook can create multiple duplicate links to the same network. Each one will diminish the strength of the connection by a little bit and you should clean them out so that there is only one.

Also, it makes sense to use the MAC address on the server side, such that only a netbook with your unique MAC address can connect to the wireless connection. It saves energy/strength if that is your only real security stopper, since like fingerprints, there are no such things as duplicate MAC addresses.

Try making those changes you might just find a cleaner, stronger connection to your WiFi at home.

Good Luck,
