Fixing “Can’t connect to this network” on Windows 11

Question

I’ve been having this problem for a while now, ever since I got a new laptop about a month ago. As the title suggests, it does not allow me to connect to my home wifi network, instead displaying “can’t connect to this network.” I’ve tried everything, from uninstalling and disabling the wifi device, to turning on random hardware address, to restarting my router, to even resetting my network back to factory settings. Nothing seems to work. It should be noted that my laptop is capable of connecting to other networks, such as my college’s network and my friend’s home wifi network.

Hi, thanks for reaching out. My name is Bernard a Windows fan like you. I'll be happy to help you out today, my timezone is UTC +8.

I understand the issue you have, there is nothing to worry I am here to help, have you tried to check the Wi-Fi on your other devices such as your phone or other PC to see if the issue is on the internet service provider or on the internet itself? if yes, and the only issue is on your PC, kindly follow the steps below:

Method 1. Roll back Wi-Fi driver.

-Press the Windows key + X

-Go to Device Manager

-Expand the Network Adapters

-Look for your Wi-Fi driver

-Right-click and click "Update Driver"

-Look for "Browse my computer for driver"

-Click "Let me pick drivers available drivers on my computer"

-Choose an old driver or other names of the driver then select it and hit next until it installs.

-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 the 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

If the same issue follows the methods below:

Do clean boot:

A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program.

• In the search box on the taskbar, type msconfig and select System Configuration from the results.
• On the Services tab of System Configuration, select Hide all Microsoft services, and then select Disable all.
• On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select Open Task Manager.
• Under Startup in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then select Disable.
• Close Task Manager.
• On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select OK. When you restart the computer, it's in a clean boot environment.

Note: If the issue persists, I suggest contacting a local technician to physically check the device for any hardware-related issues.

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

Answer 3

من مدتی است که این مشکل را دارم، از زمانی که یک ماه پیش یک لپ تاپ جدید گرفتم. همانطور که عنوان نشان می دهد، به من اجازه نمی دهد به شبکه وای فای خانگی خود متصل شوم، در عوض "نمی توان به این شبکه متصل شد" را نشان می دهد. من همه چیز را امتحان کرده ام، از حذف و غیرفعال کردن دستگاه وای فای، روشن کردن آدرس سخت افزاری تصادفی، راه اندازی مجدد روتر و حتی بازنشانی شبکه به تنظیمات کارخانه. به نظر می رسد هیچ چیز کار نمی کند. لازم به ذکر است که لپ تاپ من قابلیت اتصال به شبکه های دیگر مانند شبکه دانشگاه و شبکه وای فای خانگی دوستم را دارد.
