  1. Lost ability to connect to the internet


    I installed the latest update from Microsoft, the complete new version and now on one computer my internet connection says SECURED, Not Connected. It is a A6210, Netgear wireless USB3 device that I have on all the Windows computers. The A6210 works fine on any other computer but since the "upgrade" I can not connect to the internet on that computer. Yes I do have the latest driver. I downloaded that before the conversion/update. Any suggestions please! Thanks!

    :)

    Can I teather my widows phone to my PC for internet usage?

    I had a Blackberry phone that could be used for PC internet connection. Have I lost that ability with the new Windows phone?

  3. Windows 10 upgrade THEN lost ability to connect to the internet.

    Open Start > Settings > Update & security > Troubleshoot

    Scroll down

    Click Network adapters

    Click Run the Troubleshooter

    When complete, restart to see if the problem is resolved.

    If not, press Windows key + X

    Click Device Manager

    Expand Network adapters

    Right click your adapter

    Click Uninstall

    Exit Device Manager, restart. Windows 10 should detect the network adapter then reinstall it. Check if you can connect and browse.

    Open Start > Settings > Network & Internet > Status

    Scroll to the bottom then click Network reset.

  4. Lost ability to connect to the internet

    Called Gigabyte Tech Support - nothing. Netgear wants money to talk to you when most likely it is their coding problem. It is their codes that is not working, their device. Interesting

    Uninstall device and driver in device manager then reboot and let windows install the default driver. Upgrading to Creators Update through Windows 10 update is just asking for trouble.

  7. Okay, thanks all that took a few minutes to read. Spent 8 hours on the phone with Microsoft level 1 and 2 support. They gave up, had me take it into Microsoft Store who again tried. Finally they formatted the C: drive and reinstalled Windows 10 Clean. It has taken about a day to continue to refine and reinstall and update all the software on the machine. It is working pretty good, probably a little better than when I started this journey and the Internet connects.
