Windows 10: Windows 11 doesnt reconnect automatically to wifi when turned on or after it comes out of...

A few days ago, I had issues with a lockdown browser for school on my laptop, but afterward, I was able to fix all the issues with it. However, after that, I got an HP bios update, and now whenever I turn on my laptop, even though my network is selected to be connected automatically, I need to manually click connect in order to connect. I have even turned on the Windows troubleshooter and it didn't find anything wrong with my internet connection. I also checked my network connections and did a network/wifi reset, but the issues still occur. Also whenever my laptop goes into sleep mode, it agai

The hotspot on tablet turns off when I lose wifi but will not turn on automatically when reconnected.

The hotspot on tablet turns off when I lose wifi but will not turn on automatically when reconnected. Is there a way to enable hotspot to automatically turn on when connected to wifi.

 

Anomalous WiFi Reconnection

Wondering what (if anything) this was about: WiFi disconnected on wife's computer.

1. Checked, WiFi itself working.
2. Ran Network Trouble Shooter, which usually fixes such problems; failed.
3. Ran Hardware Trouble Shooter, nothing found.
4. Checked Wireless Card in Device Manager; indicated as working properly.
5. Restarted computer; still no WiFi.
6. Although Notification icon was black, clicked on it to see if anything there, found that the WiFi network was "Secured." Clicked on that, saw that it was set to connect automatically, clicked on that, failed. Tried once more, failed, so deselected automatic connection, clicked again, and WiFi was reconnect instantaneously.

I think that that covers most, if not all of the steps I took to fix the problem. Any idea as to what caused this, and as to why non-automatic reconnect worked without even asking for the router's password?

 

Automatic reconnecting to wifi

Douglas, thanks for the prompt help, its much appreciated.

You link applies to turning the wifi connection off then back on again automatically.

My problem is that when I return to my computer after it has gone to sleep, I have to restart windows, go through the facial recognition, etc.

I'd like to be reconnected to the wifi as soon as the computer wakes up. If I check that box, it will work that way. But if I left my desk without checking the box I'll have to open the network connections and wait while I'm reconnected.

I'm not technical so I hope I'm explaining this clearly.
