Windows 10: Wifi 6 questions

Hoping these questions make sense.


After seeing the rising hype for Wifi 6 aka 802.11ax routers, a few questions to ask.


Will 802.11ax routers make any difference when used with 802.11ac adapters, or must they be used with 802.11.ax adapters to experience any difference?


Also, is there a chance of USB 802.1ax adapters being introduced in the future?

Windows 10 wifi not turning on Acer Aspire laptop

In order to get the list of available wireless networks, you have to:

1. Switch on Connect to suggested open hotspots (see the screenshot in question);
   
2. Click on Wifi icon in the right corner. Now you have your networks back.
   

After that the parameter from Step 1 can be turned off, networks will be listed normally after restarting Wifi.

P.S. I feel rather stupid at the moment. I thought that open hotspots are passwordless hotspots and so are presumably not very safe. So of course I've turned that off during installation.
Really hard to see any logic in this case.

 

Windows Mobile 6 Wifi Question

Hi,



I have a device running Windows Mobile 6 professional, and I have a few questions.



1. I was able to connect to my home wifi network. And I know I am currently connected because when I go to Start -> Settings -> Connections (tab) -> Wireless Lan, it shows my connection and the signal strength.

But when I try to browse using IE, I get the error message saying "Cannot connect withthe current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings.", If I tap settings I come to a screen titled Connections with options "add a new modem
connection", "add a new vpn connection", "setup my proxy server".

Can I surf using wifi, if so how do I configure this?



2. How I change the wifi network I am connected to.

When I go to Start -> Settings -> Connections (tab), I dont see a "wifi" option, but there is a "network cards" option. The network cards option does not let me change wifi connections, it just me an option saying My network card connects to "The Internet"
and a list of adapter settings.



Will greatly appreciate any help.



Thanks in advance,

Tariq
