    Wifi Networks not showing

    On my Laptop if I wanted to change the wifi connection I would always see a list of the available networks when I selected the Wifi icon on the task bar.
    Since the last major update to Windows 10 I find that when I select the wifi icon I only see the current connection

    To see other networks within range I have to open the 'Network settings' and choose 'Show available networks' - then they show up.

    Does anyone have any explanation for this - or possibly a 'fix' to show them all from the taskbar again.

    Wifi Network Not Showing Up, Hidden Network in it's place?

    My home wifi network does not show up anymore on one of several devices in my home. I can see my neighbors' networks (both 5 and 2.4 connections) and can even see and connect to my phone hotspot, but my wifi is no longer listed, even though it shows up as normal on all other devices. Now there is a "hidden network" shown that I'm pretty sure is suppose to be my wifi since it has a strong signal and my other devices don't have a hidden network on their list of available networks, but although I enter my wifi name and password as requested, it will not accept it and connect to internet. That particular computer is running Windows 10 and is the only device in my home running it.

    I have already reset the network settings, updated drivers, double checked my router settings to see that I didn't accidentally set it as hidden, and I even bought a new network adapter and though more wifi networks show up, my home wifi remains a hidden network. Any idea where to go from here?

    In my network and internet settings , there is not showing my wifi network name .

    Strange names showing in Network Profiles on AVG Firewall

    Some strange network names have been showing in my AVG Network Profiles list, that are not listed on the "known network" list on my windows 10 PC:

    DIRECT-MHDESKTOP-DVFUTVPmsGH

    DIRECT-XgDESKTOP-DVFUTVPmsQJ

    DIRECT-LDDESKTOP-DVFUTVPCRTH

    (my PC name is DVFUTVP)

    Some posts online seem to suggest they are something to do with "Direct Desktop Connection" although I have never used this to connect to anything, only to wifi networks (all others on the list recognised) or bluetooth devices

    Does anybody know why these could be showing up / what they are?
