Question

Help with my computer issue?

Answer 1

Hey! So, I just got a new Asus Windows 8 computer for my birthday. Until yesterday, it connected perfectly to any and all WiFi connections. But yesterday, when I needed to do some schoolwork, it went insane. Our WiFi is called linksys, but my computer randomly started connecting to 'linksys 2'. We do not have a 'linksys 2', and neither does anyone else around. What is it doing? And, when it's connected to this 'linksys 2', I can't use the internet, even though it shows full bars... Help?

Answer 2

Have you tried turning your wifi off and deleting all wifi channels on your laptop and restarting it then turn your wifi back on?

Answer 3

I did delete all the channels. I can't get to the WiFi box right now.. I am going to try that, it just seems like a weird problem, making a random source like that, I didn't know if that wuld fix it..
