Why is my Internet acting weird???

Hi. I have a Windows 11 PC and, within the past week or so, the internet has been acting awful. Sometimes when you boot it up, it works fine! No issues at all, perfect connection for however long I use it. But, other times when I boot it up, the Internet just refuses to work entirely. No loopholes around it. I do use Ethernet, but it does this even when I don't have that connected. This is really annoying me; is there a fix for this???

    Hi, thanks for reaching out. My name is Bernard a Windows fan like you. I'll be happy to help you out today.

    I understand the issue you have, there is nothing to worry I am here to help, have you noticed any changes before the issue starts? and have you tried using a different network, just to check if the issue is on your internet while waiting for your response, let us do basic troubleshooting steps by following the steps below:

    First what we will do is enable WWAN and WLAN services, these services are essential to run the Wireless and wired connection perfectly.

    • Open Services (Press Windows key + R then type in services.msc then click OK)

    -Look for WLAN Autoconfig and WWAN Autoconfig> Right-Click Properties and set it to automatic (If it's already set to automatic, right-click then click stop then start it again)

    -Restart the PC and check

    If the issue persists, run the following command in Command Prompt (Admin). Follow the steps below to do so.

    These sets of commands will reset the internet connection and re-calibrate the internet settings you have.

    Press Windows Key + X.

    Click on Command prompt (Admin) or Windows Powershell (Admin)

    Type the following commands, and hit Enter after each command:

    netsh int tcp set heuristics disabled

    netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled

    netsh int tcp set global rss=enabled

    netsh winsock reset

    netsh int ip reset

    ipconfig /release

    ipconfig /renew

    ipconfig /flushdns

    Once done, restart the PC and check.

    Let me know how it goes and I hope that helps.

    Bernard
