I recently moved house and now my laptop can't connect to the WiFi. It was always a bit temperamental, but now when I go to access the WiFi, it shows the available networks but dark as if there's no WiFi bars. I'm connected to the WiFi on my phone and it's about 2 bars. I was looking at getting a WiFi extender but I tried to connect my laptop to my phone hot-spot and that didn't work either, though it showed all WiFi bars. The router is next door in my landlords room so it's not easily accessible. Please help!
 
Solution
If the phone works OK in the same area, and the laptop can't even connect to the phone WiFi, try a USB WiFi card or get another internal one for the laptop. It's probably a mini PCIe card.
