Laptop unable to automatically connect to university wifi
Hello,
as the Title says, ever since upgrading to windows 10, my laptop will not automatically connect to my university wifi. It simply says (translated from german) "connection to this network is impossible".
to bypass this issue i have to go to the "known networks" list and make my laptop forget the university wifi network.
after that i can manually connect to the wifi and it prompts me to type in my id and pass as it is supposed to, then it logs me in. It is (obviously) a public network, so i suppose its got to do something with security settings, but i didnt find anything that would seem to solve the issue.
things ive tried:
- change frequency of 802.11 to 20MHz only (from automatically).
- enable FIPS encryption.
- Update my network adapters drivers.
- manually type in the id and pw in the specific networks settings
the thing is, when i had win7 on this laptop it would always autoconnect to this network, it only happened after installing win10.
edit: fixed typo in title
