  2. Windows 10 Will Not Connect to CenturyLink

    After a "forced" Windows 10 update (not upgrade), my three Windows 10 devices will not connect to the internet through my CenturyLink router, either through an ethernet connection or a wireless connection. My Android, Apple and Linux devices work fine,
    both with internet and wireless connections. My portable Windows 10 devices (laptops) connect fine through the internet as well as wireless when using other networks. With all the moving parts, it is difficult to troubleshoot the problem and of course give
    technical support a pass because they can make an argument is isn't their problem. I am wondering if this is a systemic issue which others have experienced. Navigating through the Windows 10 network utilities is a challenge. However I can say I am automatically
    assigning a DNS and there is an IPV4 DSN address on the status screen but no internet connection. My position at the moment is there is a setting in Windows 10 which is interfering with my CenturyLink router. Any suggestions where to go next?

    When will the wifi connectivity problems be solved?


    OK, so the Windows 10 engineers bollixed up the wifi connectivity part of the operating system. Everybody knows that by now. It seems they are making some progress in resolving it. Now, instead of seeing "Secured, No Internet" on your list of wifi connections, you see "Connected, Secured" EXCEPT no webpages will load. So you really aren't connected. It does seem to be a step in the right direction. Does anybody know when they plan on a full and complete repair of this screw up of epic proportions?

      I was not able to work on this issue yesterday ( busy for a 90 year old). This evening I was able to take the steps that were suggested in your email.

      When I use “Device Manager” I click “ Network Adapters” I see “ Wifi” but not Eternet in this list. On the “Settings” I click “Wifi” which shows the “On' button.
    I click” Show available networks”. I wanted to capture the page that is shown, but it will not show. The top line is Network ( connected) but course I have the Ethernet cable connected. Also showing Is Five “ Broadband connections” At the bottom is
    “ Network and Internet settings” I hope for your continued help.
