WiFi not connecting to laptop

Open | Networking

I'm having this issue where my WiFi network is not connecting to my laptop. I'm pretty sure this isn't a network issue given that it connects to every other device although it does connect to my phone hotspot which is using the same WiFi network the laptop refuses to connect to. I've already tried:

  1. Updating driver
  2. Rolling back driver (caused it to temporarily appear as connected, but then immediately disconnect)
  3. Restarted and shut down computer

The network troubleshooter is saying that 'a network cable is not properly plugged in or may be broken'. I don't have any network cables attached.

This issue appeared out of nowhere, it was fine in the afternoon, come evening time I cannot connect to my WiFi network.

Any help is appreciated, thanks
