    Wireless networks can be complicated because of the many points of failure. It can be hard to determine where there is a problem with the network, from a Wi-Fi switch to a router issue or software conflict, to the Wi-Fi switch.

    • Move nearer to Wi-Fi
    • Select the wireless network manually.

    • Disable Airplane Mode
    • Turn off the firewall and pause the antivirus software
    • Toggle off the ‘metered connection’ setting
    • PropertiesGo to Network & Internet > Properties > Metered connection
