Windows 10: Can't connect to a particular wifi network

laptop running Win 10 18362.

Wifi Adaptor: Ralink RT3290 802.11bgn


I have a newly installed internet connection with a new router. I can connect to the wifi using all my other devices but not the laptop, but I can connect to all other networks using this laptop.


The wifi just doesn't show up in the available networks GUI or on running the "netsh wlan show networks" command, but it shows up fine and connects to all other devices.


It connects when I use a lan cable.

It is not a range issue as the laptop can detect and connect to much weaker networks. For some reason won't detect this particular network. What to do?

:)

 

Wifi only connects to Gmail but nothing else, and only one on particular network

I can connect to Gmail online but nothing else, but this is only on one particular wifi network, which happens to be in a place where I do some consulting work. Any suggestions as to what might fix this?

 

I can't connect to a particular network


This has been driving me mad for days, I cannot connect to one particular network in Win10 as it always shows "no internet access" and diagnose tells me that "one or more network protocols is missing" and other times it tells me there was a problem with the access point and it was fixed and restarted, but in reality nothing is fixed, it's still showing no internet access. My trick is to connect to the wifi on my tab and connect it to my Win10 laptop through usb tethering, but this is really cumbersome.

Wifi works flawlessly on ubuntu (dual boot).

UPDATE 1: I also can't connect to the default gateway, when I try to access the router page firefox said the connection has timed out, ditto for chrome, pinging the default gateway also returns "request timed out".

UPDATE 2: I've updated the wireless driver from atheros and restarted but it's still not working

UPDATE 3: flushed dns and resetted winsock, restarted, error still won't budge, does anyone know what steps can I take to troubleshoot if I can't ping even the default gateway?

UPDATE 4: For whatever reason I still can't connect to the wifi broadcasted by the router itself but got a repeater and everything works fine so that saves me from headaches for now.

 

"Can't connect to this network."


I just bought a wifi card for my windows 10 desktop (a tp-link archer t8e) and cannot connect to my network.

I have the wifi icon on the tray, I can get a list of available networks but after entering the wpa key for my network it just shows the message "Can't connect to this network."

Network diagnosis just suggested connecting to a wifi network (why didn't I think of that...), does anyone here have any clue as to what the problem could be?

UPDATE: Just noticed that the wifi adapter is being disabled briefly just after I enter the network password, no idea what's going on.
