Overview

• Wi-Fi is almost universally available these days, and it’s constantly being upgraded to offer better performance and reliability. However, things can occasionally go wrong with your Wi-Fi connection. You might not be able to find the access point you want to connect to, or you may find that your computer doesn’t recognize a network even though you are clearly in range of its signal. These are some common problems users encounter with their Wi-Fi connections and tips on how to fix them.
  
  Check Your Router Settings
  In many cases, a Wi-Fi connection problem can be traced back to misconfigured router settings. Be sure that you have the right SSID (name) and password for your network, and make sure that you have enabled both security and privacy settings. You may also want to check your channel settings and make sure that your router channel is not interfering with another nearby network. If you have a dual-band router, make sure the channels are set to their appropriate frequencies. Channel 1 is for 2.4GHz and channel 11 is for 5GHz. If you don’t know what these terms mean, then you’re likely using the default settings.
  
  Network Protocol Problems
  If you are connecting to a Wi-Fi network that uses WEP or WPA security, be sure that your computer’s network protocol settings are set to the same ones. If not, you will not be able to connect to the network. If you are connecting to a network that uses a more secure protocol, such as WPA2, then you’ll need to make sure your computer is set up to use it. If network protocol settings don’t seem to be the issue, then you may want to check with your Internet Service Provider to see if they have detected any network problems. If they find a problem on their end, they will usually be able to resolve it quickly.
  
  Wi-Fi Signal Strength Issues
  Sometimes you may be able to connect to a Wi-Fi network, but have trouble connecting to the Internet. This can be due to a few factors. You might be connecting to a network that’s close by, but the network owner hasn’t turned on the router. You could also be connecting to a network that’s not strong enough to reach your computer. This is a common problem in large buildings. You should also check your computer’s signal strength settings. Most computers have a Wi-Fi connection utility that can show you signal strength and signal quality. You may want to find a different network that has a stronger signal strength.
  
  Wi-Fi Network Congestion Problems
  If you are connecting to a network and everything seems to be working, but you notice a significant drop in speed, then you may be experiencing Wi-Fi network congestion problems. This is most common in large cities where many people are connecting to the Internet via Wi-Fi. For this issue, it might be best to switch to a wired connection. You can also try to find another Wi-Fi network to switch to and see if the problem persists. If you are working on a laptop computer, it might be helpful to move the computer to another room or to a different floor of the building.
  
  Wi-Fi Network Not Recognized by Computer
  If your computer can’t see the network you are trying to connect to, then this could be a problem with your computer’s network settings. You may have to reset or reconfigure your computer’s network settings. You can do this by pressing the Windows key and R key at the same time to open the Run command. Then, type the following: “CMD” and hit enter. This will open an administrator command prompt. In the command prompt, type the following: “netsh wlan reset” and hit enter. This will reset your network settings, which will make your computer forget all the networks it has recently connected to. It will then prompt you to choose the Wi-Fi network you want to connect to. You may have to reenter the network security settings.
  
  Windows 10 Wi-Fi Problems
  If you are having trouble connecting to Wi-Fi with Windows 10, then try restarting the computer and the router. If that doesn’t work, then you may need to reset the network settings. To do this, go to Settings and then click on Network & Internet. Then, click on Wi-Fi. From here, click the option to Forgot Network and then click on Forget. After doing this, click on the Wi-Fi button again and then click on the option to turn Wi-Fi off and then turn it back on. This will reset your network settings.
  
  Conclusion
  These are only some of the most common ways that a Wi-Fi network can go wrong. Be sure to check your router’s settings to make sure it’s configured properly. If you need assistance with any of these problems, then you can contact your Internet Service Provider or computer repair company for help.
