Laptop does not connect to WLAN - what to do?
If your laptop does not connect to WLAN, there are several possible causes. Often it is only a short-term failure at your provider. You may also be too far away from the router, or there may be a problem with the password.
Why doesn't laptop connect to WLAN?
If your laptop has problems connecting to WLAN, you should first find out if it's your laptop, your router or your provider. Take a step-by-step approach to find a solution to the problem as soon as possible. If everything does not help, the WLAN antenna of the laptop might be defective. You can simply replace this with an external antenna.These causes are possible
- Network failure: Often there are problems with the network and your provider can not provide you with Internet. Check it online at a fault indicator.
- Problems with the router: Try to dial into the WLAN with another device. If this works, the problem is with your laptop. Funktioniert es nicht, hilft meist ein Neustart des Routers.
- Falscher Standort: Möglicherweise sind Sie nur zu weit vom Router entfernt. Stellen Sie sich testweise direkt daneben. Häufig verhindern auch Wände mit Stahlträgern, dass ein Signal aufgebaut werden kann.
- Probleme mit dem Laptop. Starten Sie das Gerät neu und prüfen Sie, ob Systemupdates durchgeführt werden müssen.
