    No internet connection via wifi or ethernet


    Please help. My laptop is for some unknown reason not connecting to the internet via wifi or ethernet. It will also not diagnose the problem as it says The Diagnostics Policy Service is not running and it cannot fix it. Please can someone advise - I'm not super techy. but I am logical! :)

    Does anything show up in the device manager under "Network Adapters".
    If so, what is their status ?

    Right click the start button
    control panel/administrative services/services
    double click "diagnostic policy service" It should be started, and it's startup type should be automatic.
    If it's not automatic, set it so, and then reboot.

    If no luck, see the 2nd post in this thread.
