Windows 10: Wireless internet connection issues.

I'm having trouble with my internet connection. I get various errors; "The default gateway is not available", "Problem with wireless adaptor or access point", "I.P. address incorrect", etc. Sometimes Windows diagnostics works, sometimes not, but the problem always returns after a minute or so. I've tried re-installing the driver for the WiFi adaptor. I've tried many things suggested on the internet, but nothing works. The WiFi adaptor works fine in another computer, and no other devices have an issue connecting to the network. How can I fix this?

1 wired + 1 wireless connection issues

Hi,

I have been trying to get my computer working in a home network through a router with a wireless connection, while at the same time having internet provided through a wire.

The reason this is an issue is because the wired does not go through the router while the wireless of course does.

The issue I am having is that when both are connected my internet connection comes through the wireless and not the wired.

What I want is for the wireless to connect to the network while the wired connects to the internet.

I am using windows 8.1

Thank you,

 

Project connect to wireless device issue

Hi Kari,

Thanks for the reply.

My tv is definitely connected to my wifi; I've tried restarting the tv, and disconnecting/reconnecting to my wifi, but the tv still isn't showing up in the list of devices when trying to use 'project'.

I actually had issues with this before, but after a significant update about a week ago, I noticed that it was showing up in the devices list. I'm unsure what could have changed tonight.

Does anyone have any other suggestions? Is there maybe some way to 'clear' (for lack of a better word) any saved devices on my laptop so I can start fresh with project?
