Question by Jamiless: Why won’t my MaBook Pro connect to the wireless internet?
So I’ve had my MacBook Pro for about 2 weeks now, I have not had any problems and defects that is until a couple of hours ago. I was using my laptop and then my internet just quit working, or some situation similar to this. At first, I thought it would be my router, that’s what it recommended to be done in the “help”, but then my sister, who was next to me with my old Gateway, her internet was working just fine. Since then, I have forced to depend on the ethernet, but I have grown very worried. What do you recommend i do? Has THIS ever happened to you? Do you think it’s my Mac or my internet? Please Help! Thank you LOTS!!

Reboot your laptop and also reboot the router.

Your system may have downloaded an update which has altered the settings this may need to be rebooted to correct it
Rebooting a router also lets it update so you may even find that the connection gets better.
