Windows 10: difficulties getting a secure 802.11 AC connection

I recently installed an 802.11 AC wi-fi adapter, dual-band: 2.40 GHz ISM; and 5.0 GHz UNII, which claims to be backwards-compatible with 802.11 a/b/g/n, and I've downloaded the most recent driver update for it, released August 31, 2018. My wi-fi hub is a Cisco Linksys WAP610N, approximately 4 years old. Since installing the new adapter I am having difficulties getting a secure connection. Signal strength is excellent, but it can take half-an-hour to get a secure connection, and data transfer rates are really slow. I know this is not really a Microsoft issue, I should contact the manufacturers of the hub and the adapter, but I have a hunch that this forum is more likely to give me a helpful answer.

AC WiFi connecting as N protocol WINDOWS 10 64 BIT

AC Wireless standard is part of the 802.11 family of a 5 Ghz band. Based on your post your connection type is set to 802.11n and the transmission rate is ranging to 585 MBit/s. We suggested that you contact ISP for them to see on their side if there is something
that you have to check in the web UI of your router. We’ll do our best to help you try to change the N protocol to your desired set-up. Try these steps to see if your connection type is set to 802.11ac:

• Press Windows key + X, then select Device Manager.
• Click the dropdown list for your Network Adapters, then right-click on the driver for your USB stick.
• Select Properties, then Advanced Tab.
• Under Advanced Tab, check the following:
  • 40MHz Intolerant is enabled.
  • Wireless Mode value is 802.11ac
  • 800.11n is disable
• Try running netsh wlan show interfaces again, to see if there are changes.

Keep us in the loop with the results.

 

After Full Scan with windows defender i got problem to remove Trojan:win32/Dynamer!ac

https://www.microsoft.com/security/...Name=Trojan:Win32/Dynamer!ac&ocid=-2147283291

If Windows Defender will not alleviate this problem, recommend you follow the suggestions in this free multi-step removal guide from Malwaretips.com. The removal tools/procedures are free. http://malwaretips.com/blogs/trojan-win32-dynamer-ac-removal/

But…

If none of the other tools listed in the Malwaretips guide identify any malware, you are using an HP laptop and the alleged malware detection by Windows Defender is listed as
being in the “D” Drive on the laptop then you may be seeing a “false positive” detection. Should you determine you are probably seeing a "false detection"
suggest you post back in this thread with further information.

Good luck…

 

Microsoft Edge TLS Security


After trying everything (not a lot of steps) listed in the Microsoft Edge support site, I did a wider search and found this very simple youtube video that fixed it immediately:

For those who prefer not to click links the steps are simple:

1. Click in the Cortana search bar next to the Win 10 Start button

2. Type internet options

3. Select internet options (control panel) from the list

4. Click on the advanced tab

5. Scroll down to the security section

6. Make sure the following are all clicked:
Use SSL 3.0
Use TLS 1.0
Use TLS 1.1
Use TLS 1.2

7. Click apply

8. Refresh the page that was giving the error and it should now connect.

Hope this helps, it was a 30 second fix after hours of pounding my head against the error with the Support site suggestions.
