You clearly have turned on flight mode by mistake. Turn it off or turn wifi on, something like that should be there in settings.

Try the good old complete disconnection of your internet input to the house.
Shut it all down, including routers and do a complete reboot. I had a similar issue a few months back, drove me nuts, found a page on the internet that offered solutions to the particular error message. Tried them all without real success. Problem did become resolved, only to reoccur, before finally ceasing. Incredibly frustrating, but just one of those things. |

You can try to update the drivers for devices, or uninstall a device via control panel - system - device manager.
Expand the network adaptor options by clicking on it. If it's a driver problem, it will show up as coloured yellow and you can try to update driver, where the system will try to find one on the web. Drivers can be downloaded from your manufacturer's website, if they need installing from your pc. You can also disable devices, reboot & re-enable them. Best to do this while connected via ethernet. |
