My laptop will connect to the wifi throught the Ethernet cable but when I take the Ethernet out there is a red circle with a white cross in it on the connection icon in the bottom right of the screen.

The red circle might be just indicating that the Ethernet is not available.
EDIT:
Also press Windows key + R key then input ncpa.cpl in the Run box that comes up – hit Enter key. Do you see both the Ethernet and Wifi icons and is Wifi enabled?
[Better add that you don’t connect to Wifi using the Ethernet cable. You use one or the other]
Always pop back and let us know the outcome – thanks
