Checking the router and internet connection for issues is essential because the issue could stem from a problem with the internet service or the router's configuration. If other devices are also unable to connect, the problem is likely with the router or internet connection rather than the user's laptop.
Other answers may address the laptop's connection but do not address potential network-wide issues.
