Here are some steps below to repair your internet connectivity

“ALMOST EVERYTHING CAN/IS CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET” virtual servers, video conferencing, telecommunication services, cloud storage, smart devices, gaming platforms, and video-streaming services, etc.

1. Make Sure your WiFi is Turned On and Connected to correct Network

You also want to check if Airplane Mode is turned off.

Check the network name (SSID) and password of the network connection. If you’re used to connecting automatically when in range of a router but are no longer able to, changes may have been made to the network while you’re away.

IF password doesn’t work: Administrator could have updated the network password

Make sure you are in range to receive WiFi Signal. If your signal gets stronger once you move closer to your wireless router or access point, you should look into getting a WiFi extender for your network to cover WiFi signal dead zones.

2. Try Another Device or Website

Make sure the WiFi is turned on for that device and that it is connected to the SSID(wireless network name in question) using the correct password.

If your connection issue occurs even after checking another web address move to testing your network hardware.

3. Check Your Access Points

Check your WAN (wide area network) and LAN (local area network) connections. In layman’s terms, these are the Ethernet cables that go to and from your router.

Check Modem Lights

5. Restart the Router

Sometimes restarting the router can help fix connectivity issues.

Adnvanced Notes:

Usually you will not have to configure or modify these settings unless you are an advance administrator.

Check DHCP Settings

Routers are usually configured to use DHCP. This setting lets computers and mobile devices to join a network automatically. With DHCP turned on, the administrator will not have to manage connected IP Address and DNS Server settings manually.

To edit your DHCP settings, go to Windows Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi. Under Wi-Fi, click Manage Known Networks. Select a network and click Properties.

Under IP Settings, click Edit. From the drop-down menu, select Automatic (DHCP).

Note: Selecting Manual will let you set your DNS Server Address and IP Address settings manually.

8. Update Windows

Your network problems could be caused by your system. If that is the case, Windows could have possibly released a fix. Try updating your Windows machine to the latest release.

Go to Windows Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update. Click Check for Updates. If there are updates available, Windows will download and install them.
