Your laptop is safe.

A wireless signal is simply radio waves traveling through the air. Nothing lightning can do will affect radio waves at all. Lightning may create its own burst of radio waves, possibly interfering with your wireless signal momentarily, but it cannot erase radio waves. Nor will the lightning be attracted to the path the radio waves travel along.

No, you have to have an actual physical grounded object, in order for lightning to enter it.!

If you use the power adapter there is a extremely small chance it can travel through, but if your running off battery then you're safe.
