Easy way to check if its a router problem. Try a different device. Can the other devices see your routers wifi?

thanks for the correction.

Worth having ine of those lying around for just this purpose.
restart your computer and see if that helps, also disable your wifi adapter and wait a little bit then enable it back on in the control panel for the devices.
