Laptop will not connect to the internet

[Danezzar]

Hello and thanks in advance for trying to help out.
As the thread says my laptop is newly unable to connect to any kind of WiFi although the WiFi itself still seems to work for other devices, I also tried connecting to me cell phones data to see if that worked and I ended up with an error message saying that it could not connect. Upon running network diagnostics a very minutes ago it decided that hamachi had no valid IP address, following that I uninstalled hamachi. Now when I run the diagnostic it tells me the only problem is that "a network cable is not properly plugged in our may be broken." My laptop had no problems earlier today and i have never had this problem before either. If there's is any advice to be given is I'd appreciate it.

More information:
When connecting to the WiFi it will reach the "checking network requirements" phase before the laptop displays that there are no connection points at all for a few seconds. After that the system seems to reboot slightly and the connections come back and it seems to connect to the internet although it says "can't connect to this network" websites will also try to reload themselves before the connection dies again and the laptop returns to displaying that it is not connected but there are connections available.

Make and model of this laptop would help?

You stated that there is a list of connections available, are you selecting the right connection?
A screen shot of these connections may help us?

 

[Danezzar]

It's an Asus rog gl-552 vw, and I can't take a screenshot of the connections but I assure you there are several there and that I'm choosing the right one.

 

[Danezzar]

Well... I can take a screenshot but I wouldn't be able to post it here since, you know, no internet

 

[DaveA]

You can always transfer the screen shot to the device that you are using to post here?

 

[Danezzar]

Will this do?

 

[DaveA]

OK, which of the three is your WiFi connection?

 

[Danezzar]

The top one

 

[DaveA]

And you type in your password and then what happens?

You may need to apply "Forget Connection" resave it.

 

[Danezzar]

I've already tried forgetting the connection and re-entering the password. What happens was already described in the original post under "more information"

 

[DaveA]

Have you checked the devices for any errors?

 

[Danezzar]

Other than via the built in trouble shooter? No.

 

[DaveA]

Well, click the Strat, then type "Device" and you should see Device Manager, if so, click it.
Do you see a yellow icon next to the WiFi adapter?
If so the driver needs to reloaded.

 

[Danezzar]

Uh, where in the list would the wifi adapter be?

Under network adapters.
