    Limited Connection through Wi-Fi after Windows 10 upgrade


    I updated to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1

    Connection to Internet through Wi-Fi is not happening after that though it is happening via LAN Cable.

    Whenever I try to connect through Wi-Fi it gets stuck showing Limited Connectivity and No Internet Access.

    I went through some threads and found that it can be solved by disabling "Block Internet Connection Sharing" setting in Bit Defender but I am not using Bit Defender.

    I am using Windows Defender instead and am not able to find such setting in that.

    Kindly help me with it as it has been really frustrating.

    :)

    Have you tried powercycling your router?

    I don't think there is a problem with signal strength as Wi-Fi router is in my room only.

    Also before upgrade to Windows 10 my Wi-Fi worked properly.

    Try channels channels, then try different drivers.

    Hi,

    Just now I googled channels.

    I don't think there is any problem with my router as I am able to connect my Smartphone to internet through Wi-Fi signal from that router.

    Channels channels should read different channels.
    The drivers may work better at a different frequency.

    To change drivers you need to look in device manager to find the name of the adapter/card and then search for drivers.

    I checked and found Network Adapters in my Device Manager up to date.

    Talking about channels if there was any problem there then I would not have been able to connect to internet in my smartphone.

    You have to search for alternative drivers.

    The adapters might prefer a different channel.
