  1. Windows not detecting WIFI networks


    Hi!My computer crashed on the ground a day ago and after that, I couldn't use the headphone port as well as being able to connect to any WIFI network. Sometimes a WIFI network is appearing but instantly disappearing again. I wonder if something is broken. I checked into Device Manager -> Network adapters -> IntelR Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168 -> Properties, and the Device status is displaying "This device is working properly". I have restored the OS to a date prior to the crash and reset the network settings with no results. Might the issue on the physical level? A feedback would be

    Delay in wifi network detection

    For the last couple of days there has been a delay on detecting any wifi networks when my laptop is woken from sleep. Connects fine once it sees the network and detects and connects perfectly well when fisrt switched on.

    I have tried updating the driver, and also turning off power saving mode on the wifi and have run MS security scanner. Nothing detected and using the network adapter troubleshooter detects no issues. Other devices connect fine.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi Vignesh,

    In most cases, this issue could have happened due to hardware or software failure. To resolve your issue, we suggest that you follow the steps provided in this

    If the error still occurs, we suggest that you uninstall your network adapter. You can follow the steps provided below:

    • Press Windows Key + X and choose Device Manager from the list.
    • When Device Manager starts, locate your network adapter and right click it.
    • Choose Uninstall. If asked, check “Delete the driver software for this device” and click OK.
    • After the driver has been uninstalled, restart your computer and Windows 10 will automatically install the new driver.

    Windows not detecting WIFI networks

    Windows could not automatically detect this network’s proxy settings

    @Compumind @Samuria

    Hi - Just so you know, I'm marking this "problem solved". I found this online How to Solve the Windows Could Not Automatically Detect Network Proxy Settings Error. Doing the last step under #2 is what solved the problem. McAvee is still scanning incoming. McAvee & Malwarebytes still show no problems with a full scan. Thanks for your help and suggestions.
