Everytime I go onto my networks list on the side of my page and scroll down to the networks it has the bars and a big red X next to it then when I click on it, it says "the settings saved on this computer for the network do not match the requirements of the network".

Remove existing non-working wireless profiles you've set up on your laptop, then create new one from scratch.

To delete a profile, you’ll need to open the list of available networks. Locate the appropriate network name on the list and right-click or press and hold on it. Click or tap “Forget this network" to delete the profile from your computer.

When creating new connection profile, remember the wireless key is case-sensitive.
