    Hello,


    After updating to Windows 10 1909 I cannot use Windows update.
    Internet connection works fine, but when I check for updates, I get the following error message:


    We couldn't connect to the update service. We'll try again later, or you can check now. If it still doesn't work, make sure you're connected to the Internet.


    I tried a lot of different solutions that are available on the internet, including:

    • use the windows update troubleshooter
    • reset windows update services
    • do a clean restart
    • and more.

    Did anyone figure out this one?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Best,


    JN

    :)

  2. Internet connection speeds

    I'm really curious about this, considering the amount of hoopla every major internet connection provider likes to claim about their services, and many times exaggerated just to help their own sales . . .

    So, with that in mind, anyone willing to post up their download/upload connection speeds, and we can see just how much of a difference there is in the various internet connection types.

    Hit up Speedtest by Ookla - The Global Broadband Speed Test, choose the location closest to your home and begin the test, afterwards, copy and paste your result here. Also, please list what type of connection you have (dial-up, cable, DSL, VDSL, FiOS, etc) - if you are running through an ethernet connection, please also list whether it's a direct connection, or your LAN/WiFi connection speeds.

    So, I guess I'lll start:

    Verizon standard DSL - D-Link 802.11g 54Mbps

  3. Unable to update, windows update cannot connect to update service

    hello friend..

    I cannot update windows 10 to anniversary update. Every time I check for update, this came out

    "We couldn't connect to the update service. We'll try again later, or you can check now. If it still doesn't work, make sure you're connected to the Internet."

    I am connected to internet, Mozilla firefox is ok, utorrent is ok, everything is fine except windows update.
    I have try disable the firewall, turn off windows defender, disable antivirus, none of it work.
    I downloaded windows10 update assistant, did not work.
    I don't know what is blocking windows update form connecting to internet.

    Any suggestion? or perhaps solution.

    Thank You.

    Hi,

    I recently reformatted a computer and when I tried to connect to the internet it wouldn't work. The computer is an IBM and I have loaded Windows XP.

    All the settings are the same with internet connections as the settings in my other computers in the house but it still wont connect.

    Using cable and on ADSL.

    Thank you.
