  1. PC does not recognise home wifi network


    For some reason my PC won't detect any wifi signals except the wifi extender i purchased which is literally next to the computer itself. My phone does not have this issue any detects 8 or 9 while my PC only detects the one. I have updated all the drivers, reset the PC on multiple occasions and the problem persists. I have also recently purchased a netgear nighthawk r7000 which great wifi range and it wont even connect to that.

    Anybody know of a resolution to this issue?

    Thanks

    :)

  2. "Can't connect to this network" message

    My Nokia 930 Windowsphone frequently fails to recognise wifi networks that it already knows.

    This happens periodically but (for instance) today it won't connect automatically to my office wifi network although it is a "known network". Last night I came home and it did not automatically pick up my home network. This happens pretty much daily.

    This connectivity issue is always resolved by turning the phone off and on again but it is quite frustrating to have to do this so frequently. Does anyone share this problem and if so have any suggestions or solutions for it?

    Thanks in advance.

  3. Printer offline

    Recently I started getting problems with printing on our home network. My desktop doesn't recognise the Wifi HP printer installed - keeps saying its Offline.

    So I have to disconnect the printer from the network and then re-connect and everything is fine. Until the next time i start up my PC and we have to go through the same rigmarole.

    I also have a 2in1 laptop - also windows 10 - but that has no problems recognising the printer.

    Any ideas?
