Why does my MacBook Air not connect to Wi-Fi?
If your Mac won't connect to the Wi-Fi, first verify that you're using the right Wi-Fi connection. You can also try checking Wireless Diagnostics, available updates, physical hardware, and DNS settings. If those don't work, resetting the PRAM and SMC or restarting your Mac might do the trick.
