Windows 10 - 5G Network Missing From Laptop After Update

Ok....so, I'm reading through other questions in this community forum and see that others have this same issue--AND have had this issue as far back as a year ago, or longer. Seems like this is a flaw with Windows 10. Here we go again Microsoft!!

I have updated drivers, gone through ALL the steps listed online to reset my computer in an attempt "see" my 5G network and NOTHING is happening. I have had 5G on this laptop for years!! I reset the router - and Verizon even gave me a new one - and NOTHING.
All the phones in my house and other devices all see the 5G network just fine. EXCEPT the laptop. Was watching a movie, paused it to have dinner, and POOF!!! the 5G network disappeared.

My laptop had Windows 8 and I thought I was doing a good thing in loading Windows 10 on it. WRONG.

PLEASE send a new update to fix this problem. I would like to get back to using my computer.

Thanks.

 

Old Laptop running XP> Linux?

Here are three to choose from base on file size from small to large.

1. Puppy
   • This is a small OS that will run on many old laptops.
   • http://puppylinux.com/
2. Mint
   • This is a medium size that will run most old laptops.
   • https://linuxmint.com/
3. Ubuntu
   • This is a full size that will run on laptops that meet the specs.
   • Enterprise Open Source and Linux | Ubuntu

All of them can be put on CD or USB if your computer can boot from USB. After that, you can run it live without installing it on the hard drive. If you like it, than you can install it but make sure to make a backup of your hard drive.
