  1. auto connect makes wifi unuseable


    I move my devices a lot which means I use a lot of different wifis on the daily. This means I use the auto connect function constantly but for a couple months it just has not been working on any of my devices. I thought it was device specific but I've gotten a couple new devices recently and they have the same problem. What happens is that when I want to connect to any given wifi, I ask it to connect automatically which it will do immediately without actually getting through.

    Wifi Auto Connect


    I have a PC out in my building and it runs off wifi, sometimes my modem shuts down and reboots but it will take like 5-10 minutes unless I go all the way back to the house and power cycle it. The problem is my windows 10 is set to auto connect to it but never does unless I click the wifi drop down list then it will reconnect, I was wondering if anyone knows an application that tries to reconnect to a specific wifi more aggressively than windows 10 it gets annoying because if I need to use the pc I cant just look across the room to see if my modem is back, I have to go and check the wifi then it connects.

  3. Cannot disable auto-connect on Wifi

    I did try the other options including the command line. Only the wifi network that I was actively connected to showed up in the command line. The other ones, the ones that don't let me uncheck "auto" in the taskbar, they did not show up in the command line. How can I get the networks in the picture to show up in the command prompt? What steps would I use to disable the auto-connect from there?

    WiFi Does Not Auto Connect Upon Startup, Recently

    Wi Fi does not auto connect any longer since yesterday, it needs me to turn Off and then On the Auto Connect button which is always in the On position.
    Attached find the present of present and long stablished Network connections which I suspect has something to do with it.
    Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.
