For the last 4 weeks or so I've been putting up with just using the Ethernet cable but ita a pain considering it only extends so far. I can't seem to get internet when using the WiFi but every other device works fine on it. I can connect to the router but it displays "no internet connection" I've tried god knows how many different things already and googled for hours. I officially give up on trying to google it.

I would check if the notebook can connect to another WiFi source for starters. Also, which router are you using and your internet connection?

hey sorry for the late reply. It can connect to other Wifi sources like my university's library. But im sure the issue lies in the laptop because any other device connects just fine to my router. I'm using a TP-Link model # TP-wr842nd.

The short answer is to try a different USB WiFi adapter. This generally is a good way to bypass whatever the issue is.
