Ok, so recently I wiped my Alienware X51 R2 back to its factory default state, but once the system fully wiped itself back to its default state the internet connection didn't work. Apparently the internet connection problem was caused by a problem with the wireless adapter, I just don't know what's wrong with the wireless adapter.

I tried troubleshooting the problem but that didn't help and I used the program alienautopsy to scan the systems hardware but everything was okay. I also checked in the device manger and everything turned up okay there too, so apparently by what I can tell there's nothing physically wrong with my wireless adapter.

So if anybody knows what's up with my computer and how to fix it, help would much appreciated!

(I have a windows 8.1 computer btw)
