Windows 10: Wifi doesn't show Home's wifi but show neighbouring wifi(s)

Hi, it's been quite some time since i came here for help. But behold Microsoft didn't kept me long.

So it's been 3 days since i'm experiencing this on my HP Laptop running Windows 10 20H2 build 19082.645.

But 3 days ago i was running version 1909, and this problem was also persisting on the version too. The problem is that my Laptop doesn't even show my Home's own wifi but shows and can connect to Neighboring wifi(s) and can connect to my Smartphone's hotspot as well. But this problem starting appearing 3 days ago, so i started googling and encountered several threads which date back to 2011 with people running windows 7. Some threads says that it's got to do with the "WAN Miniports" which causes confusion in the windows process to identify the known wifi network, Those threads said i need to disable and then remove them with some "netsh" commands via Command-prompt and i did that as well but no avail.. while some suggests that it's got to do with Modem's Channel settings where some Models can't connect to Channel above 6 or so, did that aswell but nope.

I updated to version 20H2 yesterday, and it fixed the problem my Laptop was able to connect to my Wifi network and i also tried it out by restarting my Laptop a couple of time and it seemed the update fixed the problem but nope today it went the same.

So my last hope is you guys here. Hope i didn't make this a spaghetti post. If i need to post more info then please let me know. I'll check this thread back in a while. Thank you

:)

 

Wifi Networks not showing

On my Laptop if I wanted to change the wifi connection I would always see a list of the available networks when I selected the Wifi icon on the task bar.
Since the last major update to Windows 10 I find that when I select the wifi icon I only see the current connection





To see other networks within range I have to open the 'Network settings' and choose 'Show available networks' - then they show up.





Does anyone have any explanation for this - or possibly a 'fix' to show them all from the taskbar again.

 

Wifi list won´t show




Hi

my new aspire 5 all of a sudden stopped letting me open the wifi list, while i had the same provider it was allright but right now i have changed my provider and since i can´t see the available networks it doesn´t let me choose it.
I´ve already tried to update drivers, restart internet settings, save the new wifi mannualy to see if the computer could connect. but nothing provided results.
From what i can guess it looks like the problem is not in the connection, because i can connect in to my old wifi and also a ethernet cable but somethig is preventing the wifi list to appear.

 

Wifi names

I was wondering can you put anything as a wifi name for example I wanted to put CIA-outpost-#### random number is that illegal? I've seen FBI surveillance van 006 before on my list of wifi names I can pick up.
