Windows 10 shows WiFi is connected but I can't use the internet

Hi Joe,

I realize the inconvenience you are facing in connecting to the WiFi network. I suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps:

Step 1: Reset TCP/IP

One of the components of the Internet connection on your computer is a built-in set of instructions called TCP/IP. TCP/IP can sometimes become damaged or corrupted.

Follow the steps below to reset the winsock entries and TCP/IP stack and to troubleshoot the issue further.

• 
  Press Windows Key + X together and select
  Command Prompt (admin).
  
• 
  Type the following command and hit Enter after each:
  

netsh winsock reset catalog (reset winsock entries)

netsh int ip reset reset.log hit (reset TCP/IP stack)

• 
  Reboot the computer and check.
  

Step 2: Flush your computer's DNS cache.

• 
  Press Windows Key + X together and select
  Command Prompt (admin).
  
• 
  At the command prompt, type the following commands. Press
  Enter after each command.
  

ipconfig /flushdns

ipconfig /registerdns

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew
