Hi @Meagg,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

I understand how frustrating it is when your laptop suddenly shows “No Wi-Fi networks found”, especially if you need to get online urgently. This usually happens due to one of these reasons:

• Wi-Fi adapter disabled or missing
• Driver corruption after update
• Hardware or BIOS issue

Let’s troubleshoot step by step:

Step 1: Check Wi-Fi Toggle

• Press Fn + F12 (or the key with the wireless icon) to ensure Wi-Fi is enabled.
• Look for the wireless light should be white/blue, not orange.

Step 2: Verify in Device Manager

• Press Windows + X → Device Manager → Network adapters.
• Look for your Wi-Fi adapter (e.g., Realtek, Intel, or MediaTek). 
  • If missing → driver issue.
  • It shows a yellow warning → driver corruption.

Step 3: Reinstall Wi-Fi Driver

• Go to HP’s official site:
  👉 Official HP® Support
• Enter your laptop model and download the latest Wireless LAN driver.
• Install and restart.

Step 4: Run HP Network Check

• Open HP Support Assistant → Network Check.
• It will diagnose and fix common connectivity issues.

Step 5: BIOS & Hardware Check

• Restart and press F10 for BIOS.
• Check if the Wireless Network is enabled.
• If it’s missing even in BIOS, → possible hardware failure.
