If it connects on one device but not the other, you know your internet connection is good and the problem is with the disconnected device. If your Wi-Fi isn&#8217;t working on any device, the issue is most likely with your router, modem, or Internet service provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Check your WAN and LAN:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check your access points i.e the Ethernet cables that go to and fro from your Router.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you suspect the cables are the source of the problem, consider replacing them with new ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"314\" src=\"https:\/\/anakage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/image-5.png\" alt=\"How to troubleshoot network issues in windows?\" class=\"wp-image-2890\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anakage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/image-5.png 680w, https:\/\/www.anakage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/image-5-632x292.png 632w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Restart the router:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Restarting the router can sometimes help with connectivity issues.

The router can be jolted back into working order with a simple restart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Check Wifi Name and Password<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check the network connection&#8217;s network name (also known as SSID) and password. If you&#8217;re used to connecting automatically when you&#8217;re in range of a router but can&#8217;t anymore, it&#8217;s possible that the network was changed while you were out. It might be as simple as admins changing the password or changing the SSID to something else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"342\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/anakage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/image-4.png\" alt=\"How to troubleshoot network issues in windows?\" class=\"wp-image-2889\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Update Windows:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Update your Windows PC to the most recent version.
