    You can connect with hard wired to router....your wifi internal device is dead....dongles are really cheap.
    My wifes wifi wouldn't work...it wasn't even listed in device manager....used a dongle...go on internet...when she was done and we took it out...her onboard device was back. Whodda thunk??
