Please help!!! I not to tech savy there has to be a way to fix this situation??? ps my wifi is on never sleep. nothing i try works.
 
I would suggest going into your settings and removing or forgetting the connection to your router. Then start from scratch.. looking for a wifi and then inputting your security pass word etc. See if that gains something. If not, you may need to reset your router. Search the net for the procedure to reset your router and follow the instructions. I hope this helps you get your connection back.
