    Why do my wifi connections get broken when I do an OS update


    I upgraded to windows 11 last year on my laptop, and every time I update, one or more of my wifi connections get corrupted or broken. Pain in the ****, spend hours renewing IPs and password changes, resetting modems etc. So today 4th time for updating did update yesterday, and I could not connect to wifi at home. At home, I don't care if I have time, but when I'm at uni, and I don't have access to the router or modems, this is a huge pain in the #ss. So I sit here dreading tomorrow that I'll spend my first hour or two trying to connect my Wi-Fi.The error I get from the troubleshooter is IP a

  2. wifi connection problem

    Hi,

    To better assist you with the WiFi connection issue, please answer the following questions:

    • Are your other devices able to connect to the same WiFi connection and working fine?
    • Have you tried to restart your WiFi router?
    • Which OS build version is currently running to your phone?
    • What are the troubleshooting steps that you've tried so far?

    Regards.

    When will the wifi connectivity problems be solved?


    OK, so the Windows 10 engineers bollixed up the wifi connectivity part of the operating system. Everybody knows that by now. It seems they are making some progress in resolving it. Now, instead of seeing "Secured, No Internet" on your list of wifi connections, you see "Connected, Secured" EXCEPT no webpages will load. So you really aren't connected. It does seem to be a step in the right direction. Does anybody know when they plan on a full and complete repair of this screw up of epic proportions?

    Can't connect to wifi after Windows Update

    I have now tried all of the suggested steps at least twice.

    The only instance of seemingly achieving any progress was the first time I performed a clean boot, when the wifi connection actually worked. But after that, I tried following the steps to isolate the problem and then after restarting the computer, all of
    my wireless features have disappeared again. I have tried repeating the entire sequence of steps again, but the wifi hasn't worked again. It just worked that one time, but I don't know why it was different that time.

    I have been trying to fix this for over 11 hours, but haven't been able to connect back to wifi.

    I would like to know if rolling back the Windows Update is an option and, if so, how to do that and how to prevent Windows from updating again.
