Can't detect any Wi-Fi network

Hi,

My Laptop(Lenovo ideapad 310-14IKB) suddenly can't detect any Wi-Fi networks. I can confirm that the Wi-Fi network appears as public on my phone. Troubleshooter can't fix this problem automatically but instead spews out this error :

There might be a problem with the driver for the Wi-Fi adapter

Windows couldn't automatically bind the IP protocol stack to the network adapter.

So far, I've took these steps to try fix the problem without resetting my laptop:

• Reinstalling driver. Both newest from manufacturer website and rolled back version.
• Network reset on Settings > Network & Internet > Status > Network Reset.
• Disabling IP Helper on services.msc
• `netsh winsock reset` and restart
• TCP/IP stack reset
• Disabling DHCP Broadcast Flag for my Wi-Fi adapter

Is there anymore things that I can do to fix this?

PS: My Wi-Fi is 2.4Ghz and my laptop can detect both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz before this error.

 

Reset network adaptor and Wi-Fi adaptor does not function anymore

I had some problems connecting to a new network, so I tried reseting the network adaptors. However, after that my Wi-Fi does not work anymore, the button for Wi-Fi (I don't know how it's called i'm sorry) disappeared.

When I troubleshoot it, it was described as

- "problem with the driver for the Wi-Fi adaptor".

- Windows couldn't automatically bind the IP protocol stack to the network adaptor.

My laptop has:

- Windows 11 Home Insider Preview - Version Dev (OS Build 22543.1000)

- Network adaptor Wi-Fi driver: Qualcomm (R) Wi-Fi B/G/N/AC (2x2)

I have tried:

- restart my computer

- reset my network adaptor

- disable and enable my Wi-Fi network adaptor

- update my driver (it is indeed updated to the latest)

Does anybody had this before? How do you fix it? Helppp

Thank you in advance.

 

Windows 10 stop automatically connecting to random new wi-fi networks

Hi,

I have searched a lot, but all the tutorials I found only explained how to not connect automatically to a known wi-fi network or how to disable wi-fi sense... but this is not what I am looking for...

PROBLEM:

• When my laptop (Windows 10 Pro X64) is not connected to a network and the wireless adapter is on, it will automatically connect to any random new unsecured wi-fi network... The only way I have now to avoid this is to disable my wi-fi adapter.

UNUSEFUL TUTORIALS I FOUND ON THE INTERNET:

• How to manually uncheck the option for a particular wi-fi network not to connect automatically in Network Properties. This is not what I am looking for. This would suggest that everytime I power my computer. I would have to manually go through all the available wi-fi networks and unclick them all...
• How to disable Wi-Fi Sense. This is not useful, because I don't even have a Wi-Fi sense option in my computer where the tutorials say it should be.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:

• I am looking for an option to tell my computer to stop connecting randomly to unknown wi-fi networks like an hyperactive, reckless idiot.

PERSONAL COMMENT:

• Honestly, why would any respectable company think that it could be somewhat wise or secure to do this... Anyone's computer could just randomly connect to any hacker's wi-fi network without the user even knowing it...

Any solutions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
