Hi:

 

The only suggestion I can offer would be to see if installing the latest Wi-Fi driver for your notebook's Realtek RTL8188EE 802.11bgn Wi-Fi adapter resolves the problem.

If you can't connect your PC to your router via an ethernet cable, you will need to download the driver from another PC, copy it to a USB flash drive, plug the flash drive into your 17-F004dx notebook and install the driver that way.

 

If that doesn't work, it is possible that the Wi-Fi adapter has failed, and needs to be replaced.
