Title: Wifi problems
Post by: TheGame on May 13, 2017, 10:30
Hi,

I have some problems with connecting to my Wifi network for my laptop. When I try to connect it to my home network it connects, but it isn't working (it shows the warning icon);

I've already restarted my router, but it still doesn't work. This same wifi network does work on my other devices (other  laptop and phone). I've also tried to connect to another network, but I do get the same issue.

Any way to fix this?

Thanks!

Have you already tried removing it from known networks and adding it again? If you are talking about that ! mark then its displayed on open networks.

Just tried that, but still the same issue.. Keep getting the ! icon on the right bottom of my screen (left of the wifi 📶 icon).

If you recently updated your windows then it might have fucked your WiFi drivers? Have you tried connecting to some other WiFi networks? You should try reinstalling the drivers in case it started happening after an windows update.

open your available networks (if more than one), click the one you normally use, click forget, click it again and if you have to put in a network password (I had to do it when we got new equipment) add it in there and hope it works.

Connect to it
Cmd.exe
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
