Windows 10: Build 1903: Wi-Fi connection terminates when starting a game

Good evening,


i installed Windows 10 Build 1903 on saturday, since then i got a very strange behaviour with my wifi connection.


I am connected via Realtek 8812AE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC and a 40Mbit-Line. Browsers are working great, i can stream movies, youtube aso.


BUT: Immediately after i start a game (Steam, Epic, GOG Galaxy) the internet connection crashes. Only when i close the game the connection comes back up. I tried with different games - always this strange behaviour.


*) I tried to disable UPnP

*) Tried to change the networks adapter Wireless Mode (b/g/n)

*) Disabled the Power Management Checkbox: Computer can turn off this device for saving power

*) Uninstall driver and uninstall device

*) Refresh driver of the network card

*) Enabled or disabled the game clients cloud sync.

*) Troubleshoot the whole thing in the windows settings.


Nothing worked. Maybe you have some clues or tips for me, what i can try. Maybe it is a little setting which is configured wrong since the update.


I hope i delivered all useful information. Sorry for my english, if something isn't described in a proper grammar


Thanks in advance & best regards

:)

 

Windows 10 stop automatically connecting to random new wi-fi networks


Hi,

I have searched a lot, but all the tutorials I found only explained how to not connect automatically to a known wi-fi network or how to disable wi-fi sense... but this is not what I am looking for...

PROBLEM:

• When my laptop (Windows 10 Pro X64) is not connected to a network and the wireless adapter is on, it will automatically connect to any random new unsecured wi-fi network... The only way I have now to avoid this is to disable my wi-fi adapter.

UNUSEFUL TUTORIALS I FOUND ON THE INTERNET:

• How to manually uncheck the option for a particular wi-fi network not to connect automatically in Network Properties. This is not what I am looking for. This would suggest that everytime I power my computer. I would have to manually go through all the available wi-fi networks and unclick them all...
• How to disable Wi-Fi Sense. This is not useful, because I don't even have a Wi-Fi sense option in my computer where the tutorials say it should be.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:

• I am looking for an option to tell my computer to stop connecting randomly to unknown wi-fi networks like an hyperactive, reckless idiot.

PERSONAL COMMENT:

• Honestly, why would any respectable company think that it could be somewhat wise or secure to do this... Anyone's computer could just randomly connect to any hacker's wi-fi network without the user even knowing it...

Any solutions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Different Network Connection From the same Wi-Fi

Hi,

Thank you for providing the details.

As mentioned above in your post, the Desktop is connected to the Ethernet
and Laptop is Connected to the Wi-Fi. It is not possible to connect to the same Wi-Fi networks. If both Desktop and Laptop are on Wi-Fi devices then you could try connecting it to the same Wi-Fi network.

• Did you try the below step provided and what was the result?

I would suggest you to create a new HomeGroup and check if it helps.

(Applies to Windows 10 as well)
