Windows 10: Wifi connected but laptop not loading internet

Hello



Have had some issues with my Lenovo Yoga 13 laptop (Windows 10) recently. I installed AVG Tune up which was supposed to speed up my computer.



Subsequently, found that it would rarely boot up properly after the log on screen. When it has rarely done so, I have managed to restore all the changes made by AVG Tune up, uninstall it and then run a defragmentation. This appears to have sped up the laptop slightly and I can now log on and all applications that I have opened that work offline appear to work.



However, I have now noticed that when connected to the internet, no pages load. I do however have another laptop and phone connected to wifi where the internet does work without any problems. It says that the wifi is "connected" and sometimes "No internet" but usually appears to be connected but no pages loading. Sometimes it will load a page very slowly- ie BBC news home page but without images and then cuts off. Spotify and other apps default to "offline" mode.


Any help will be much appreciated- have scoured the web on a different laptop to no avail.


Thanks

When will the wifi connectivity problems be solved?


OK, so the Windows 10 engineers bollixed up the wifi connectivity part of the operating system. Everybody knows that by now. It seems they are making some progress in resolving it. Now, instead of seeing "Secured, No Internet" on your list of wifi connections, you see "Connected, Secured" EXCEPT no webpages will load. So you really aren't connected. It does seem to be a step in the right direction. Does anybody know when they plan on a full and complete repair of this screw up of epic proportions?

Internet through wifi connection

Hi Sammy,

A few possible reasons can cause WiFi connection issues. To help us identify the cause of this problem, we would like to know the following information:

• Can you connect to the WiFi hotspot of your router? If yes, what is the status of the connection?
• Does your laptop automatically connect to the WiFi? Do you need to type a password when connecting?
• Can your laptop detect other WiFi hotspots around your location?

In the meantime, let's run the Network troubleshooter while connected using WiFi. The Network troubleshooter can help diagnose and fix common connection problems. To run it, follow the steps below:

• Click Start.
• In the search bar, type Network problems, and then select Identify and repair network problems from the list of results.
• Follow the steps in the troubleshooter and see if that fixes the problem.

Keep us updated on the status of the issue, and we will be glad to assist you further.
