Hi

I've put my laptop to sleep by turning down the screen (as to 'close' the laptop which I always do), went out, then when I came back, it was connected to the ethernet connection.

Now the issue is that I can't find any Wifi connection. IT IS GONE! lol. I have no idea how and why! I didn't touch anything.

Any idea of what should I do..?

Thanks

Well, the fact is that there was never any ethernet cable xD
I only use Wifi, I never use cable, how did the ethernet took place of Wifi is a mystery.

Well, after searching, and many attempts, I read that Windows 8 just 'ejects' any device that doesn't work anymore. That's why I couldn't find the Wifi adapter anywhere.
By chance, I had an old Wifi adapter laying, I swapped and bingo xD
