Windows 10: Getting a "Wifi isn't secure" notification every time even tho I connected to a different...

Hello! Recently, from past 2 days I have come across this issue where I'm not getting my wifi to work at it's peak. The speed of the wifi has gone desperately low... I'm also getting this new notification "<Wifiname> isn't secure" even though I tried connecting to a different wifi I still got the same issues. I have a 40 MBPS network broadband but I am still getting like barely 5 MBPS even though I am sitting fairly close to the router. This doesn't apply to when I'm connected to ethernet as I get good speed when I'm connected to Ethernet. My wifi also gets disconnected a lot of times in

Printer isn´t working after latest update.

After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

 

When will the wifi connectivity problems be solved?

Hi Wabbles and welcome to Tenforums.

I've got 4 systems connecting via wireless; all adapters are different makes; all have zero issues, and two of them are old (wireless-G only). Most every issue I have seen with wireless connections has been driver-related. (Or, impending router failure.) I would suggest identifying your adapter model/make, and searching for different drivers that you can try out. And, sometimes an older driver works better than a newer one (just had this issue on a system I was working on yesterday). Also, verify you have these same connection issues when connecting to different routers, just to rule that out.

 

Portable HDD full but isn`t..

Hi Graham,

In most cases, this may already point to a hardware issue. We suggest doing the following to properly isolate this:

• Connect your portable HDD to a different port.
• Connect your portable HDD to a different PC.
• Connect other storage devices.

If you find that other storage devices work properly and your portable HDD still encounters an error with other computers, then this is already a hardware issue and you'll need to get in touch with the device manufacturer for assistance and troubleshooting.

Feel free to post back if you need more help.
