    Hello everyone, and I hope your NYE partying goes well!

    As per title, I did a factory reset on my old Vostro for my father to use - but for some reason, while before it could connect to the internet, now it doesn't, to wifi. I haven't tried an ethernet cable yet but that's not the point.
    I also tried to reset the wifi card and nothing.
