Once the machine a HP 840 G9 is started and it gets to the login screen it isn't connecting to the wireless network automatically. I have to manually select it in order to connect. The settings are for the wireless to connect when the network is in range and also even if it isn't broadcasting. Intel version 22.220.0.4 wireless driver on the intelR Wi-Fi 6EAX211 160 MHz wireless card. Set also for connect by machine or user policy but again it doesn't connect automatically. Any Ideas?

Windows 10: Disable automatic connection of a wireless network

This isn't helpful.

This is clearly a software issue and can't be rectified by playing with wireless settings. Please can Microsoft create a patch? I find that often it stops me logging in as the computer is confused on the networks it is connected to.

I have followed all the suggested steps and it makes no difference as I am not actually connected to the networks that the computer is suggesting I connect automatically to.

Windows 10: Disable automatic connection of a wireless network

Hi,

Sorry for the delay in replying.

If you have not tried this then you may follow these steps to test if that helps:

• 
  Open "Network and Sharing Center".
  
• 
  On the left pane, click on the option "Manage wireless networks”.
  
• 
  Look for those networks where the Security is "Unsecured." Right-click on an unsecured network, then click on "Properties”.
  
• 
  Make sure that the box next to "Connect automatically when this network is in range," is not checked. Then click on "OK" to save your settings. Repeat the steps to uncheck the box for any other unsecured networks on the list.
  

Keep us informed to help you further.

 

Losing network connection

Hello Dear, if you have a laptop or a PC with a wireless network adapter, you can see a list of available wireless networks and then connect to one of those networks. The wireless networks will only appear if your PC has a wireless network adapter installed, the adapter is turned on, and the wireless access point is in range.

1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Connections.

2. In the left pane, under Network Tasks, click View available wireless networks.
In case, If you don't see the network you want to connect to, click Refresh network list. If you see the network but the signal is weak, move the PC closer to the wireless router.

3. Click the network you want to connect to, and then click Connect.

4. If you're connecting to a secure network, type the security key, and then click OK.

I Hope you solve out your query soon.
