Windows 10: Can't connect to primary wifi but can connect to guest on Windows

Problem started after a Windows update.A bit of context. This is a machine with dual boot Linux Garuda and Windows 10 Pro. Both OS's are on different drives and don't have direct access to each other.Linux can connect to the main network without any issues and there are no issues with the WiFi on any other devices I own. So I know it's not a computer hardware issue or an issue with my modem.When I'm on Windows, connecting to the main network shows 'no internet, secured'. Running the network troubleshooter gives me the error 'WiFi doesn't have a valid IP configuration'. The internet can som

Internet not connecting on WIFI Guest network

Hello there,

I am running Windows 10 on an HP Envy laptop PC. I work at a hospital and I like to watch Netflix on my lunch break, so I need to connect to the hospital's guest WIFI network.

On my WIFI list the network in question has the shield with an exclamation mark. I try to connect and it says "No internet, open".

What SHOULD happen is that when I connect, it should take me to a terms & conditions page that I then accept, and it connects.

It used to work just fine but one day my laptop just stopped connecting. My phone (Samsung Galaxy S7) connects just fine, as does my wife's Surface tablet that I brought with me today.

Any ideas why I may not be connecting to this particular guest WIFI network? Also, I have Kaspersky anti virus on my laptop.

Thanks!

 

guest on wifi

On my home pc there is a "guest" on my list of available wifi connections. How can I delete this guest? How could this happen without my knowledge?

 

Cannot connect to wifi


Hello, I'm running a Surface Pro 3. I use it for work and my personal life. At work, we have three different wifi connections. My preferred one is the "guest" wifi. I've been using it since I got my Surface almost 2 years ago. I've never had an issue. Two days ago, I noticed I wasn't connected to the web. I disconnected and reconnected to the guest wifi. It showed "No Internet, secured". Chrome shows that the DNS address could not be found. I am able to connect to the other two wifi options and access the web (I prefer the guest access because it doesn't limit what I do on the web). I took the surface home with me and again, no issues connecting to the wifi at home, or some public wifi I tired. Everyone I've talked to is able to connect to the guest wifi at work without issue. My network administrator (who is technically not allowed to work on my surface because it is not a company device) says nothing has changed on his end.
I followed some of the trouble shooting steps on other posts. I did run the system file checker and determined that opencl.dll (I think that is the file name) was damaged. I was unable to repair it.
I am hoping someone could possibly run me through troubleshooting this issue? It's an annoyance more than anything and I would like to see if I can fix it. Thanks in advance.
