@HowlingKing - It would be nice if you could list what you DID try to fix this issue, so we don't have to play 20 questions.
Here's a question anyway - Did you try using Windows System Restore to restore your system back to the time when your WiFi worked?
Ok, so the things I have tried to do so far is:
System restore
Run CMD and reset my IP
Disable and re-enable ipv6 & ipv4
Turn my modem on and off as well as my computer
This problem occurred yesterday after I was downloading a program and my computer crashed half way. After I rebooted it I was asked if I wanted to start windows normally or run in safe mode. I chose to run normally, and then my wifi no longer worked.
What I have discovered so far to this problem is:
The network adapter is not connected.
In particular ipv6 and ipv 4 are also not connected.
My network adapter is the Atheros AR9485WB-EG.
This network adapter is know to be crap.
Windows 7 has a Wifi problem, similar to what is happening to me now, which occurs randomly.
My modem/router is a DLink DSL-G640T.
The drivers to my modem/router have not been updated since the day I bought if, but I've been using my laptop fine with it for a week.
