    Network Settings says No Internet Connection, But...


    But I'm currently browsing the internet and typing to you.

    In fact - I can do virtually everything (League; Steam; Skype; etc) except use any OS feature that requires logging in - e.g. Mail, User Accounts, Shop, etc. Then it says something along the lines of "Cannot use this service without an internet connection - please connect and try again." When I run Network Diagnostics as the prompt recommends - it says I am connected and cannot find a problem.

    It doesn't always happen - but it seems to be determined on start-up. If I restart it now it might be working next launch - but 75% of the time it will encounter the same issue. It's been happening for months now but I've sort of gotten used to using my phone to check my emails - but I've now encountered an issue with one of my hard drives being unable to be searched (tried indexing, etc) and the only step I've found that I haven't tried says it could be a corrupted user account - but I cannot update my user account without "connecting to the internet". -_-

    The system is up to date. No driver updates available.

  3. Unable to host virtual network for internet sharing


    I've been getting the following error:
    "The group or resource is not in the correct state to perform the requested operation"

    Things I've already done trying to solve the problem(To save time from suggesting the same things) :

    1) Clean install of Windows 10.

    2) Made sure my WiFi network card doesn't go to Sleep, by disabling that option in the Power Management.

    I tried going through all the forums regarding this, but none of them are solving my problem

    Additional info :

    It was working fine untill some random windows update, after which the PC started getting BSOD when trying to host a network. Reinstalling drivers started giving me this error instead of BSOD.

    Then I rolled back to windows 8.1 and checked again. It was working flawlessly. I assumed it to be a driver problem, so I upgraded to Windows 10 again and this error is back.


    Is my only solution is to chuck Windows 10 and run 8.1?

    Slow internet connection from Wifi - Network adaptor

    Hi Maegen,

    Slow internet connection could be due to outdated network adapter driver or Wi-Fi signal interruptions.

    We would like to know some additional information to better isolate the issue:

    • Have you tried updating your network adapter driver?
    • Do you have any anti-virus or 3rd party security app running?
    • Is your computer updating Windows or other programs?
    • Have you done any changes on your computer prior to the issue?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you try to run Network Adapter troubleshooter and
    Internet Connection troubleshooter. It will find and fix problems with wireless network adapters and Internet connections. Follow the steps provided below:

    • Press Windows key + X and select Settings.
    • Click Update & Security, then choose Troubleshoot.
    • Click Internet Connections and Network Adapter.
    • Click Run the troubleshooter.

    We will wait for your response.
