Cannot connect to a preferred network

Windows can automatically repair a corrupted WLAN connection:

If there is a network status icon in the notification area, at the far right of the taskbar, right-click the icon, and then click Diagnose and repair from the menu.

NOTE: To display the network status icon, click the Show Hidden Icons icon (< or <<) in the notification area.

Windows resets your network device and attempts to reconnect to one of the preferred networks.

If an “x” is superimposed over the network status icon, one or more of your WLAN or LAN drivers are installed but the computer is not connected.

If there is no network status icon in the notification area, follow these steps:

1.Click Start and type network and sharing in the Start Search box.

2.From the list of search results, click Network and Sharing Center.

3.In the left pane, click Diagnose and repair.

The Network connections window is displayed, and Windows resets your network device and then attempts to reconnect to one of the preferred networks.
