    Reset network login profiles


    My dorm uses a centralized internet that is shared and requires you to login, i had my friend setup the first time for me but apparently he used his own login and now we are both sharing the same bandwidth

    I should be able to create a new account with my own personal bandwidth if i can go through the first time setup again

    How do i delete the network login on window 10? must I use network reset?

    The setup was from a browser, but currently I immediately get the internet when i connect to the wifi, i dont see any login screen at all so i guess my computer has the login details saved down and i need to delete that so the central network thinks I'm a first timer

    It depends if its remembered via the network or the browser

    To delete a wireless network profile in Windows 10:

    • Click the Network icon on the lower right corner of your screen.
    • Click Network settings.
    • Click Manage Wi-Fi settings.
    • Under Manage known networks, click the network you want to delete.
    • Click Forget. The wireless network profile is deleted.

    If logging in from the browser to set up the connection, it either installed a proxy script in Windows or matches the MAC adapter info with the username. Contact whomever manages the dorm network and have them remove your system information from the system.
