Windows 10: PC - PC Network Connection

I have 2 Laptops, both have my name, email & password. I tried to connect from one to the other using the 'Network' link in File Explorer but it tells me wrong Username or Password. I use the same PIN to enter on both.

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.

 

PC wont connect to network.

I have a HP computer that is set off aside that I am going to use for folding and for some reason it wont connect to my network. I have the modem connected to a switch, and from there my computer and the HP is connected, but I can get a connection but not my HP comp. Now when I hit repair it says that it couldn't do anything because it stops at IP renewing. I have even went into networking and changed the network connection to the top of the list.

See I hit repair and it says that it is renewing the IP address but it doesn't, then error.

How can I get it connected to my internet?

 

PC can see networks but can't connect

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while connecting to a network on your PC. For further clarity on the issue, please respond to the questions below.

1. Which build version of Windows 10 are you using currently?
   
2. Do you receive any error message when you try to connect to the network?
   
3. Are you able to connect to any other network on your PC?
   
4. What is the make and model of the PC?
   

Refer the article Which version of Windows operating system am I running?



Meanwhile, I would suggest you to try uninstalling and re-installing the network drivers and see if that helps.

1. Press Windows key + R. This will open
   Run. Alternatively, you can go to Start and search for ‘Run’
   
2. In Run dialog box, type ‘devmgmt.msc’ and hit
   Enter.
   
3. Expand Network adapters.
   
4. Right click on the network driver and click on
   Uninstall.
   
5. Now check the box Delete the driver software for this device.
   
6. Click on Uninstall
   
7. Restart the PC.
   

In addition, you may try changing the hotspot name and the bandwidth settings of the hotspot and see if the PC detects the network.
