Lose Internet Connectivity after EVERY Windows Update
EVERY single (unsolicited) Windows 10 Home update procedure knocks out my internet access so I can't access internet after a Windows Update.
Found several solutions here at 10 Forums some time back. The solution that works for me (on laptop or desktop, ethernet or wifi) is this:
Go to Control Panel
> Network & Internet
> Network and Sharing Center
> click the Connections: option (either 'Ethernet' or 'Wifi') depending on whether wired or wifi
> click 'Properties'
> click once on 'Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)' so it is highlighted
> click properties
> ensure 'Obtain an IP address automatically' is selected
and
> scroll to Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) so it is highlighted
> click properties
> ensure 'Obtain an IP address automatically' is selected
Every Windows update removes the 'Obtain an IP address automatically' settings on both my machines.
My question is:
Does anyone know how to get these settings to stay permanently? It's so annoying having every single Windows update knock out my internet access.
Win 10 Home 64 bit connected to ActionTec wireless 802.11N VDSL2 modem router via fibre.
Thanks in advance.
