  1. WiFi Cuts Out


    Since the recent Windows 10 upgrades, my WiFi will mysteriously cut out.


    It takes several tries on Wi-Fi settings to reconnect.


    Sometimes, I have to reboot my device to get a connection back.


    Has anyone else had this occur to them and, if so, are they aware of a fix?


    Many thanks and stay safe!

    :)

    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.

    Hi Abu,

    Based on the details provided, there are a lot of possible factors for this matter to occur. One possibility is

        ip reset

        Enter.

    Exit
    Command Prompt
    and
    monitor your network connection.

      the check box radio for "Allow this device to turn off this device to save
      power".

    • Restart the PC
      (Important).

    Reconfigure TCP/IP

    To do this, follow these steps:


    • Run
