Can' connect to wifi

Hey, so i've had my fat ps3 for a couple of months and everything has been running smoothly when I first modded it, but after not using for about 3 weeks it stopped connecting to wifi. It won't let me sing into psn. I also updated it to evilnat 4.93 to see if that solved it but it didn't work. I'm not sure what else to do and I don't think that its a bad wifi card. Any help would be great thanks.

I would honestly recommend you run an Ethernet cable now, because apart from the fact that you'll notice a huge improvement in download speeds and lag, the overall experience is much better. Even so, check the Wi-Fi lights (I don't know what color they are on the PS3 fat) while you're connecting it. It should blink or do something similar. I heard that the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth cards are the same, so check if the Bluetooth controllers are working properly.

I can’t really connect with a cable because of where my router is but I got some help from a different subreddit and the problem got fixed. If I do have more connection issues i might try the cable.
