Thanks Colin for your reply. When I do a software update sometimes I'm asked to re-start. So I click on the star in the top right hand corner of the desk top menu and a drop-down menu displays two options:- shutdown and re-start. I click on re-start as requested and when it's complete I have no network connection. So I power off and wait awhile and then power on. The network connection is ok! I'm using 14.04. Before I power off I click on the network icon and the drop-down menu does not show my network! I then 'Edit connections' and try to create my connection by adding my SSID but to no avail as the rest of the menu is unhelpful as my pin has no explicit input box! I hope this explains the anomaly which is not critical as I have a workaround option as above.
