    I have recently been having an issue that causes my internet to not work. When I connect the the router, I am redirected to the pagehttp://www.msftconnecttest.com/redirect which I think is a virus website, and it does not allow me to connect to my internet. I reset my router a week ago and it seemed to solve the issue. Now the problem is back and I am wanting to know if my internet has a virus and I hope to find a solution. I saw a previous thread about this, but it didn't provide me with any useful information. The popup that I am getting is trying to get me to download something related to the corona virus. The popup appears on all of my devices, so that is why I think it is an internet related issue.

    :)

  2. msftconnecttest redirect not working on windows 10 public wifi

    Seems odd that I can get onto the login page on my iphone (which apparently does not use msftconnecttest as an interim step, but not the laptop.

    Can I bypass this msftconnecttest step manually?

  3. msftconnecttest redirect not working on windows 10 public wifi

    I'm not trying to use VPN, but one of the previous "tips" for resolving this issue did include making a change to the VPN site. I'm just trying to connect through regular wifi to the internet.

    What happens is I choose the public connection (with the little exclamation point next to the wifi symbol), and it will say "connected" but there is no internet because of this msftconnecttest not reaching the website to use the login code.

    msftconnecttest redirect not working on windows 10 public wifi

    Hi

    I have been having problems with public wifi on my laptop since last Nov. Running windows 10.

    Every time I try to connect to internet with a restricted site (ie requiring a login/password) browser opens to
    msftconnecttest://redirect

    and never goes any further - get stuck in this loop. It has been an issue since a windows 10 update sometime in fall 2017.

    I have tried:

    changing default browser from edge to IE, (even tried googlechrome)

    reseting internet options (internet options ->advanced-> reset (but not to factory settings to delete all my personal home pages ect)

    fiddling with the VPN settings

    None of these seem to work.

    Only way I can connect is to use a personal hotspot.

    Why is this an ongoing issue?

    Please provide a solution that I can copy/paste into a word or text doc that I can post on my desktop so I can remember this again when I travel next time.
