Windows 10: How do i connect with mywifiext.net or mywifiext.local setup page?

Hello everyone, I have recently purchased a Microsoft windows laptop and i was trying to connect my Netgear WiFi Range Extender to it but didn’t had any luck connecting it. I tried everystep to connect it manually or with ethernet but it hardly gets connected to my Laptop. I have followed the steps given below to connect my wifi range extender with www.mywifiext.net:Connect the extender to the power socket.Wait for the light to get green and steady.Grab a laptop or a desktop, open any web browser in it.Now type www.mywifiext.net or 192.168.1.250.Now click on the New Extender Setup button.

Local account installation question

I'm fairly certain that Skip this step was available in 10.0.130 - the workaround in Step 20 (back button) is no longer required.

The currently known, as of 10.0.130, ways to create a Local account sign-in are

• Skip this step at the MS account creation phase
• No Internet connection during the install
• static IP (post# 2 by Fragment) - New (to me anyway)

Hi Jim,

You can try these following steps in fixing this issue:

• 
  Open
  Command Prompt
  as
  Administrator.
  
• 
  Type
  net local administrator /add
  networkservice and hit
  Enter.
  
• 
  Type
  net local administrator /add
  localservice and hit
  Enter.
  
• 
  Type
  Exit
  and
  restart
  your computer.
  

Let us know how it goes.

W10 can connect to wider internet but cannot access web pages

I have an odd issue with my W10 laptop linked to Sky broadband in the UK via wifi using a Sky router. The effect is that while I can actually access the internet (I can send and receive emails using Outlook and can connect to other machines using TeamViewer) I cannot access any web site (Google, BBC etc). There is no specific error message, merely that the access request timed out and a suggestion that it may be to do with proxy.

I have tried the following:

1. Other systems (W10 and ios) can access web sites using the same Sky router (therefore probably not a router problem)
2. I have sent and received emails using Outlook, so the broadband connection is working (probably not a Sky problem)
3. I have tried two different browsers (Firefox and Edge), no connection (not a browser problem)
4. I am using Windows Defender and have:
   1. Made sure that Firefox is in the list of allowed systems in its Firewall, no connection after a reboot
   2. Turned off the Firewall and tried again - no connection

My next step will be to re-install Windows, but has anyone got any other suggestions? Could it be some sort of virus (I have carried out a complete virus check using Defender)

So - any suggestions?
