This problem seems to pop up sporadically lately with some of these older (era 2007-2010) laptops on which I have put LL3.4-3.8 and I am unsure why this occurs.
Essentially laptops where they previously showed the active networks available listed under the "WiFi networks", now the "WiFi networks" is grey and no choices show. I can connect to my WiFi by clicking on "Connect to Hidden WiFi network...", but this will not be user friendly to the youth with whom I place these computers as I believe they may need to know more info to actually connect to new network...
Would someone be able to tell me how I can get the "available networks" to show up? and maybe explain why this is happening? I don't believe it is happening simply because I have checked and installed updates, I recall one of the youth saying it simply started on his laptop and he would not have been doing any updates.
