I downloaded it and nothing happened. How do I launch the diagnostic?
by Lindsay Adam, 2024-11-30


I, WITH a computer tech, my best friend, could NOT find out, THRU this diagnostics, WHY my laptop would not connect to a certain Coffee Bean's wifI in L.A. BUT had NO PROBS (thus, not my device) up the street at a Starvbux, no matter WHAT he tried to do. And, AND, all around me, months, 7 years at SAME venue, no one else was having ANY probs ! I was each day eventually able to log on there, but was sick of umpteen attempts to when we went to THIS diagnostics..........failure. Go figure !!
