  1. Win10 won't find specific WiFi


    So I've got us a new Router, since the old one really gave us some severe trouble and everything finally works fantastic.

    Except for my GFs Laptop. For whatever Reason, her Windows 10 System really doesn't want to recognize it. ANY other Device recognizes it flawlessly. Including my Laptop both with Linux Mint and Windows as well. Booted up from USB in Mint, her Machine handles the WiFi just fine, so no issues on the Hardware. Also, ANY other Network of our Neighbours is found immediatly, including a quick Phone HotSpot, to see if it for whatever reason refuses to find "new" WiFis or something.



    The obvious stuff out of the way

    -System is up to date

    -Only appears in Win10

    -No Anti Virus Software except for Windows defender, which I've also turned off for a test

    - Again, ANY other Device/OS finds it immediatly and connects

    -The Wifi is both 2.4 and 5GHZ, wich both this Laptop supports

    -Rebootet both the Machine and the Router

    -WiFi settings reset

    -WiFi on and off

    -Useless Network check and fixing thingy ran, of course without success (had those Windows diagnostics ever in the History of MS fixed anything?)

    -tried adding the Network manually

    -works wired



    The built in WiFi Chipset is an intel 3168ngw. Again, System is up to date.

    Any Ideas?

    Wifi list won´t show


    Win10 won't find specific WiFi c3038856-ce75-4c37-bf71-721eeceae79d?upload=true.png

    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.
