Hi,
I have a Dell laptop that runs on windows7. 2 days back my father reported internet connection problem on laptop but I was able to connect to internet (with my wifi network)on my tablet when I checked the laptop I could not see wifi network further checking the device manager to check whether the network adapter list my wifi network but it does not. After searching for solution on net I tried restoring my laptop to an earlier date when there was no internet problem though the problem got fixed but now the laptop has slowed down before restoring there was no such issue is this problem because of restoring and also while typing on MS word i get to see this message that says Java(Tm) web start launcher has stopped working what to do ?

The first thing to do is delete the connection information and then try to reestablish. And reboot the router.


It may also be a driver update problem. Try uninstalling the current driver and downloading the wifi driver directly from the Dell driver page for the computer. If that doesn't work, you could also try getting the wifi driver directly from the card manufacturer.

Also as a precaution, it is a good idea to do a full anti-malware sweep just to be sure. Try Malwarebytes.
