My HP elitebook 8740w that I've owned for years always worked great. I never move it from my coffee table, and it's always plugged in due to the battery being a little weak. The other day I didn't notice that it had become unplugged, and hours later it just shut down completely dead. When I realized it had become unplugged, I plugged it back in, but had no internet. Now a few days later, battery fully charged, and many hours of trying to reconnect to the internet, I still have been unable to. I'm 62, and my technical ability is limited, but have been into settings, and my internet connection area a number of times. Every time I find a tab that says internet is turned off, I turn it on. But it keeps turning itself back off. Maybe someone with much more knowledge than me, and some patience with an older guy that doesn't know much about these things can help me get my laptop back online again. I miss it. Thanks
