My lappy occasionally goes into startup repair mode when I turn it on, but I often cancel that option. A few days ago, I forgot to do that and my lappy ended up went through the repair process. After the process, I couldn't connect to the internet anymore. I have attached images here so that you can help me to diagnose what the heck is going on with my lappy. Please don't use complicated or even relatively simple programming language because I am a noob. Yeah, a big time noob.

The good news is that all the hardware appears to be identified and working correctly so we just need to fix the configuration.

Do you own an Ethernet cable? They have large blocky connectors with a lock pin on one side. If you do, I'd start by connecting your computer to the router with that and see what happens. That should get you connected as a starter.

What happens if you double-click the item on the right up there for the Wireless Network Connection? Usually that should bring up a list of available wifi hotspots from which to choose. Select yours and enter the password when prompted.

One other thing. Never turn off the computer simply by pressing the power switch. Make sure you use the Shut Down option in the Windows menu. You'll probably see fewer complaints about needing to enter startup repair if you do.

Is your wireless even enabled? It's a separate button on your keyboard. Or it might be a symbol on another button where you would enable/disable it by pressing FN+that key.
