Windows 10: How to fix wifi on my computer?

Hello, I have a problem with my computer Lenovo Legion series. A few days ago the computer stopped being able to connect to wifi for a reason I can't seem to understand. I tried trouble shooting but it didn't help. The computer is able to connect to my mobile hotspot and work just fine but when it connects to wifi it says there is no internet. Meanwhile my phone is connected to the wifi no problem. Please help.Kind regards

Recommendation for WiFi usb / card

If you have a desktop computer I would STRONGLY suggest a PCIe adapter rather than a USB adapter if you go with WiFi 6. The only USB WiFi adapters that I have seen thus far use a Realtek chipset which is reported to have some serious flaws. In my own personal experience, I have tried 2 of these and returned both, getting performance worse than other WiFi 5 adapters and constant disconnects even 10 feet from my WiFi router. If you go with a USB adapter, I would suggest a quality WiFi 5 adapter. One more note: Should you decide to go with a WiFi 6 PCIe adapter, I would suggest a WiFi 6e model. They actually cost no more, and they are one step up just in case you ever go to a WiFi 6e router.
