Really hope someone can help! My windows 8 laptop won't connect to the wifi at home but other devices connect fine. I have checked everything on laptop, bearing in mind I am technically challenged, and I keep getting the above message. I've run the troubleshooting, done a system restore 3 times now and disabled and re enabled the wifi. I'm stuck what to do next, can anyone help please?!! Thanks

Thanks squirted, I've just tried that but it won't renew my ip as it says 'media disconnected'?
