  1. Whenever i try to install a game my computer loses access to the internet


    Hello, i have been having this problem since this morning and idk how to fix it. Its been a few days since for some reason my PC started to perform poorly internet wise, mainly in videogames. So far It had been bearable, nothing out of the ordinary, but today,when i decided to re-download "Helldivers 2", my PC started to lose connection to the internet. I thought It was a hardware issue, but i only encounter It when i try to download something from steam. I really dont now what to do. I have update drivers and i have install all the new Windows updates.THX in advance

    :)

  2. Lose internet access with KB3097617 and KB3105216 installed

    When KB3097617 and KB3105216 install, I can connect to my wifi, but I lose internet access. When I uninstall these updates, I gain internet access again. Obviously, with automatic updates turned on, they keep installing and I keep losing internet access.

    Has anyone else run into this and if so, have you found a fix?

    Thanks!

    W10 can connect to wider internet but cannot access web pages

    I have an odd issue with my W10 laptop linked to Sky broadband in the UK via wifi using a Sky router. The effect is that while I can actually access the internet (I can send and receive emails using Outlook and can connect to other machines using TeamViewer) I cannot access any web site (Google, BBC etc). There is no specific error message, merely that the access request timed out and a suggestion that it may be to do with proxy. I have tried the following:
    1. Other systems (W10 and ios) can access web sites using the same Sky router (therefore probably not a router problem)
    2. I have sent and received emails using Outlook, so the broadband connection is working (probably not a Sky problem)
    3. I have tried two different browsers (Firefox and Edge), no connection (not a browser problem)
    4. I am using Windows Defender and have:
      1. Made sure that Firefox is in the list of allowed systems in its Firewall, no connection after a reboot
      2. Turned off the Firewall and tried again - no connection
    My next step will be to re-install Windows, but has anyone got any other suggestions? Could it be some sort of virus (I have carried out a complete virus check using Defender) So - any suggestions?

    You may try the following steps:



    Steps to connect your device and computer:

    Connect your device to the computer by using a USB cable or Bluetooth wireless connection.If you are connecting via Bluetooth, Bluetooth modem drivers may need to be installed on your computer.



    To create an internet connection for the first time, do the following:

    • Use latest available
      Nokia Suite
      .
    • In the Nokia Suite Home view, click Tools -> Options -> Connect to Internet
    Once you are connected to the internet, you can see detailed information about the connection in the left-hand area of Home. The following information is displayed:



    • Operator or access point in use.
    • Duration of the current internet connection.
    • Amount of data transferred during the current internet connection
