After powering up this pc I followed all steps to get to the wi-fi network that I have chosen , selected it and clicked on connect, but nothing happened after that . Consequently, i can't access the internet. Please advise. fyi: i am an old guy who doesn't know computers very well, so, please be patient with me . I'm trying my best , but need some help here.
Thanks, T-bone3

Welcome to HP Community
I have gone through your Post and would like to help
Please reinstall the wireless driver from Device Manager
- Select the Start button, type Device Manager, and select it from the list of results.
- Look for Network Adapters and expand the List
- Look for wireless driver then right-click it, and select Update Driver.
- Select Search automatically for updated driver software.
- If these steps don't work, try reinstalling the driver: Open Device Manager, right-click the wireless driver and select Uninstall. Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.
Keep me posted
