  2. Unable to connect to the internet on Windows 10

    Hi Chris,

    I realize the inconvenience you are facing with connecting to the internet, do not worry we will help you with this issue.

    Provide us additional information to assist you better with this issue:

    • Are trying to access wired/ wireless internet connection?
    • Are you referring to reset of the Windows 10 operating system?
    • Were you able to see any error code/ error message while trying to connect the internet?
    • Have you turned on Airplane mode on your computer?

    This issue might have occurred due to incorrect networking settings/ corrupted/ outdated network drivers.

    Let us try few of the below troubleshooting steps and check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to check if the Airplane mode is turned on. If so turn it off and check.

    • Press Windows key, click on Settings
      from the left pane.
    • Click on Network & Internet.
    • Under Airplane mode turn it off and check.

    Step 2: I suggest you to check if
    Network Adapter is enabled in Device Manager.

    • Press Windows + X keys from the keyboard, click on
      Device Manager
      .
    • Expand Network Adapter.
    • Right click on adapter driver, click on Properties.
    • Click on Driver tab and Enable the driver.

    Step 3: Run Network Adapter troubleshooter

    Network Adapter troubleshooter find and fix the problems with wireless and other Network Adapter.

    • Click on Start; in the start search type
      Troubleshooter and hit Enter.
    • In the left pane, click on View all.
    • Click on Network Adapter Troubleshooter.
    • Select Advance and click on
      Run as Administrator
      .
    • Click Next and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the troubleshooting process.

    Hope it helps. Try the troubleshooting steps and get back to us with an updated status of accessing the internet for further assistance.
