My girlfriend's laptop is a brand new Lenovo Ideapad S400 Touch. I saw the free upgrade to 8.1 and thought it would be a good idea to do. But upon reboot it is no longer able to connect to the wireless network.
It has the broadcom wireless card in it. I went into the device driver settings and made sure that the settings under advanced "should" give the laptop access to the network.
Prior to upgrading from Windows 8 I was able to connect to the wireless network.
I tried downloading and installing the latest Windows 8 wireless drivers for the system. But that had no effect. I have been trying various settings and rebooting. No luck.
Now just to be clear, when I go to connect from that laptop I can see and click on the the name of the wireless network and try to connect. I am just unable to. I verified and re-verified the password for the network multiple times.
I am not sure what could be causing this at this point. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome.
Thanks, Patrick
