Problem with wireless adapter or access point?

I have been having trouble with my laptop. It runs windows 8. Wifi was working fine up until 2-3 weeks ago. It would turn on and off. Airplane mode is not on. It eventually got to the point where it wouldn't connect at all. I reset my whole laptop and it started working again. It's been about a week and the same thing. Troubleshoot says "problem with wireless adapter or access point". Any ideas on what the problem is and how to fix it?

    I think it is time for a new adapter or you could call your company that runs your adapter and they will help you with their support staff. Try to reboot your laptop one more time and then call your wifi company. :)
