Ok, now for backstory….
I was playing Team Fortress Two on my laptop. It got laggy and froze (and wouldn’t unfreeze or be CAD’d) so I had to manually pull out the battery. I restart the computer, and suddenly all the online connection profiles I have are wiped.
I attempt to get back onto our default wireless network (name default. :/) but it brings me to a profile creation page. Whenever I try to create it as a profile, it always says “an internal database error has occured when saving/updating the profile.”
I’m pretty sure it isn’t because I create the profile without security (the connection never had security before) but it refuses to let me create a profile for it or anything else, and thusly prevents me from autoconnecting to the internet.
So now every time I sign on, I have to go to the settings and tell it to choose any wireless connection if it can’t find a profile to autoconnect to, and then it promptly connects to default. Still doesn’t save it as a profile (which it is supposed to automatically do).
(this problem could also potentially prevent me from logging on at my Grandma’s house, because her secure connection couldn’t be manually logged on to and would be skipped over with any autoconnection unless the connection was a profile, which it now isn’t.)
Any tips on how to fix it?
