  2. Everything detects+connects to everything including Home Laptop and Home WIFI except Home Laptop to Home WIFI

    SOLVED:

    • Home WIFI is set to Channel 4 and has over 90% signal.
    • Neighbour WIFI is set to Channel 4 and has over 90% signal.
    • I set Home WIFI to Channel 1 - it was set to Auto
    • Home Laptop detects Home WIFI 5 times after I switch Router off and on - it used to not detect after 1-2 switches.
    • Home Laptop connects to Home WIFI in less than 2 seconds - it used to take more than 10 seconds.

    Problem:

    • Home Laptop doesn't detect Home WIFI except sometimes

    Exception:

    • Sometimes Home Laptop detects and connects to Home WIFI
      successfully + internet works great like when I posted this question. Generally it happens after
      turning Home Router off and on.

    Mission:

    • To make Home Laptop detect Home WIFI

    WIFI detection:

    • Everything detects Home WIFI except Home Laptop
    • Home Laptop detects Every WIFI except Home WIFI
    • Home Laptop detects Home WIFI on Neighbour Cable Line
    • Home Laptop doesn't detect Neighbour WIFI on Home Cable Line

    Info:

    • OS: Windows 10 Home 64bit
    • Router: Nokia G-140w-G
    • WIFI Adapter: Qualcomm Atheros QCA61x4A Wireless Network Adapter

    Tried:

    • Windows Update - up to date: 24.11.2019
    • Windows Reset including deleting files
    • Network Reset + Windows Restart
    • Router Reset
    • Router Unplug everything for more than a minute
    • WIFI Adapter Driver Update - "Windows has determined that the best
      driver for this device is already installed"
    • WIFI Adapter Drivers Replacement - 3 replaced
    • WIFI Adapter enable/disable
    • Mobile Hot Spot - doesn't detect

  3. Laptop not detecting wifi

    My laptop is not detecting wifi signal of any of the broadband but if I create a hotspot network through mobile then it detects that.. Does this means that it is not detecting signal of a particular band or vice-versa..

    so my acer 4830tg-6450 laptop's internal wifi card has been acting up. it seems to have connectivity issues. my usb one works, but speeds are much slower so I am looking for a replacement wifi card.
