Background:
I am using Dell Studio 1555 for connecting to internet, everything was fine till yesterday I found that I am no longer being able to connect to any network. Even if by chance it gets connected it was automatically getting disconnected after few seconds. I made sure that network strength is full, so I tested this by sitting near to router too. But it was still not working.
I thought this might be caused by some software interfering the connectivity.. So, I made a clean install of Windows 8 (earlier I was using Windows 7), by formatting my PC. To my surprise it is still not connecting.
Problem:
Now, the problem is that, I am not able to connect to any wifi network broadcast signals. It is stuck on "Checking Network Requirements" prompt. It seems no hardware problem because it is showing all the signals in vicinity and also showing good strength indicators. Also, I have other devices like my phone and another laptop, which are able to connect to same access point.
