Right, my problem is, after upgrading to windows 10, all was great, but suddenly my PC stopped detecting my wireless network. It detects all of the others around me, just not mine. I can still detect the network on all of my other devices, and I'm truly stumped... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Please follow these steps to fix your computer wireless problem:

1. open device manager by typing the "devmgmt.msc" command on your computer.
2. click on the network adapter settings.
3. select your wireless adapter and right click on it and then you need to click on uninstall.
4. CLick on yes and wait for driver to uninstall. once your driver will be unisntall then you need to go ahead and reboot your computer.
Finally reinsall a new updated version of wireless driver. your wifi will start working fine.
As you say.It detects all of the others around me, just not mine.then it's not your pc, but the router or your wifi provider
 
I'm almost certain it isn't the router, logged into the router previously and found no reason why it wouldn't be detecting. Also I can still connect to the network via an Ethernet cable.
 

Yes via the cable.but as you mention your pc detect all others around.you could try asking a friend with a wifi device to see if he detect yours.and did you reboot your router.
 
Yeah well I've connected to my network with a bunch of other devices, friends have connected to the network since the problem started. And yes I've tried rebooting the router.
 


What network adapter do you have in.might need a update on it
