Turn everything off then on again. If this doesn't work, check that no one is standing on a cable.1

Sorry I can't help you with your question but if you are still having problems with your wi-fi, you may want to post your question on the MSE "Techie Stuff" board:

You've come to the right place. What return are you getting from Virgin? Are the lights blinking?

Does any device see the wifi in that room e.g. smart phone?
Can PC see the wifi if it's moved closer?
Could well be house blocking signal, maybe use a booster or even better an internet over power lines ethernet connection so you get a better connection in the room0 -
as above - first step is to move pc closer to router and see if it connects
does windows show the connection available?0 -
Have you a phone that uses WiFi, can it connect at the same location, what is the signal strength.0
