Windows "Identifying" issues in wifi connection

It's connected to the wifi network but no actual internet access. The identifying keeps on loading forever. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers.
Does anyone have any guaranteed solution for this?
Is it a hardware issue?

1, Did it get any IP address(assuming you have DHCP)?

2, Were you able to ping websites/ just plain IPs?

As per this Windows requests http://www.msftncsi.com/ncsi.txt or www.msftconnecttest.com/connecttest.txt and does a DNS lookup for dns.msftncsi.com, and then compares the result with the built-in values. Therefore you may need to whitelist these sites if you are blocking them via some firewall.

In case your network is ipv6 then the connectivity checking sites might be different.
 
Thanks guys I'll try again tomorrow and get back. Its not my laptop.

Will reinstalling windows fix it? If yes then I think that would be the easiest solution.
