Windows 10: Access blocked on certain WiFi network

I'm trying to play Minecraft on a server, when I connect to mobile hotspot I am able to connect but when I am connected to the WiFi, I am not able to connect to the server.

What should I do to fix this? Should I mimic all the network settings of the mobile data to the WiFi? If so, what are they?

FIREWALL IS BLOCKING CERTAIN PROGRAMS

Hi Joseph,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

I will be glad to help you with the issue you have with the computer. I understand the frustration when things don't work the way it should.

One of the most common problems when using a network firewall is that it sometimes blocks network traffic that you want to allow.

Please follow the below step to troubleshoot with the issue:

• Open the “Control Panel“.
• Select “System and Security.
• In the Windows Firewall section, select “Allow a program through Windows Firewall“.
• Unchecking the box to the left of the application name disallows it from accessing network resources, while checking it allows access.
• If the program you wish to block or unblock is not listed, you can click the “Allow another program…” button to add it. Choose the application in the list and select “Add“. If the program is not in this list, use the “Browse…”
  button to select the program file manually.

Hope this information is helpful. Please post in case you have any further issues, I will be glad to help you further.

Thank you.

 

Wifi networks not accessible

Every time windows 10 updates my computer I am unable to see or connect to available wifi networks. I try turning wifi on but the button keeps turning off. When I undo the windows 10 update, I can access wifi networks. I've done this at least 3 times!
I've tried several of the Microsoft suggestions and nothing fixes it except undoing the update.
