Hi I want to setup my Pin but there is no wifi connection and I try to connect a wifi but in my Lock Screen the wifi symbol just had air plane mode

:)

 

WiFi connect?

Using Windows 10 19041.630; Dell XPS13 laptop.

The area I've seen referred to as the quick options tray has an icon on it labeled "connect". Clicking that opens a menu that is headed "Searching for wireless display and audio devices". In a bit I see listed my Roku device and my Samsung TV set. Choosing the TV set, I get displayed (on the TV screen) a choice to connect. If I agree, my computer screen is displayed on the TV.

What is this service called? Is it WiFi direct connect - that is, the WiFi of my laptop connects to the WiFi of my TV set, without a router in the middle? Is it the same as Miracast? Is this connection method widely used?

 

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?

Hi,
Go to Network sharing centre, click Change Adapter settings, right click Wi-Fi and disable it, reboot and enable it, might work. If you still find it difficult to get the connection working, let us know the Wi-Fi card make and the driver you have at the moment.
