Try my solution, although time consuming, it was the only one I found would work. Uninstalling programs didn't do it. The hard reset was what finally got it working, and it has been for about six hours straight now with plenty of testing.

Freddie, I'm glad to hear you have found a solution for the problem of loss of wifi. Hopefully, your process will be a pemanent solution.
I, too, was able to recover wifi access via a hard reset. But my loss of wifi soon reared it's ugly head again, whether or not I had a wifi connection at the time. After many hours of resets, reinstalls, backups, restores, etc., I discovered my problem was caused by an old version of Resco Registry Editor. I was using a 2005 version. Whenever I opened and closed the registry I would lose wifi access, even if I made no changes to the registry. I was able to replicate this result several times. Finally, last night, I downloaded the current Resco products and that solved my problem. So far, anyway. I hope it's not just a coincidence and the underlying problem is still out there lurking.
I'm also concerned about Spb Backup, although I have the current version, because yesterday I restored from the the same backup several times and got different results regarding the wifi issue. I hope this doesn't happen in the future if I need to restore.
It has been extremely frustrating. Apparently you never did discover what caused your problem initially; is that true?
