Lenovo ThinkPad E15 Gen 3 Unable to Connect to Wi-Fi Networks

Sometimes Windows can detect and resolve connection issues automatically.

• Run Troubleshooter: Open the search bar (⊞ win), type “Find and fix network problems” , then select it or hit enter. Follow the prompts on the new window that pops up. If a problem is found, Windows may automatically fix it.

Sometimes the issues of your device may be found in the settings of your device.

• Check Wi-Fi Network Settings: Ensure your device is searching for available networks. This can be done by using the search bar of your device (⊞ win) and typing "Wifi", and then hitting enter. Next, select "Show available networks". Select your desired Wi-Fi network.
  • If desired network is not showing up, see if other devices (like a phone) are connected. If not, the router may be off or restarting. Try unplugging the router for 30 seconds and plugging it back in.
• Check Wi-Fi Adapters Settings: Open the search bar (⊞ win), type “View network connections” and then select it or hit enter. Right-click the “Wi-Fi” option. If the top option says “Enable,” click it. If it says “Disable,” the adapter is already enabled and this is not the issue.

Outdated software or missing drivers can stop the Wi-Fi card from working.

• Update Wi-Fi drivers: Visit Lenovo Support, select "Scan Now", and download the latest Wireless LAN drivers. Install the driver and restart the computer.

If no other steps help, the Wi-Fi card may be faulty.

• Replace the Wi-Fi card: If your card is damaged or not functioning after all previous steps, it may need replacement. Follow [ADD LINK HERE]
