No Connection

Post by Sonic Glitch »

According to the network/sharing center on my laptop, I am not connected to the internet despite the fact that I clearly am, as I have been visiting websites (and now posting this) since the message appeared. Any suggestions?

Restarting the laptop may get rid of it, or it may possibly be thinking that it's not connected to the wired network and therefor come up with that, but other than that I can't think of what it might be, but I can't see it as much of a problem either.

Disconnecting then reconnecting to my wireless network seemed to fix it.

Obviously your best bet is to argue with your computer until it understands your point.

And smack it around as needed.
