    WAN Miniport causes WiFi disconnect - Windows 10

    Hi there,

    I recently discovered that the solution to my wifi problem (wifi not automatically connecting to my router after a restart), was to deactivate all the "wan miniport" devices in device manager. After having tried basically all wifi related troubleshooting
    steps to no avail, I simply started randomly deactivating all wan miniport devices with the hope it would fix it, and turns out, it actually fixed the problem! Now my wifi reconnects to my router after a restard again.

    My question is, I didn't read about this step in any troubleshoot for wifi related issues anywhere, I just randomly found this out.

    Can someone please explain why "wan miniport" was causing my wifi not to reconnect to my router after a restart, and does Microsoft know about this issue? Because this was a
    really annoying issue that I had for a very long time, only now I found the solution myself.

    Thanks

    WAN miniports missing

    "WHERE I CAN FIND THE DRIVERS."

    The WAN miniport drivers are integral to Windows. They should install/load automatically when called for by a software device that requires them.

    In Device Manager click the "View" menu and select "Show hidden devices" and then look under Network adapters to see if disabled miniport drivers are shown.
