At home I use a direct wired Ethernet connection and elsewhere WiFi to a local hub. The computer must have a receiver-transmitter modem that connects it to hubs which doesn’t seem to be woorking. In the past I clicked ‘Wireless Network Connection’ and got the list of local hubs. Now clicking ‘Wireless Network Connection’ I get a box titled Wireless Network Connection displaying, “Enabling…” and then quickly displays, “Connection failed!” and then disappears.
I used to have a controller on my start list that let me enable/disable WiFi but it was accidentally deleted.
I tried System Restore, but for all dates it only stated “Your Computer cannot be restored to the [date given] System Checkpoint” –or –if not a System Checkpoint, then no explanation.
On clicking Dec 20 in System Restore these notes appeared:
8:36 pm Removed Digital Line Detect
8:34 pm Removed Get High Speed Internet
4:42 am Remove EducateU
4:39 am Configured Broadband Management Programs 2
It’s possible that on Dec 20 I ran a copy of Regwork and picked up some kind if virus – but that’s just a guess.
