    Question Windows 10 thinks I'm connected to a public network when I'm not. Why is that?

    Before we jump in, let me first say I'm still trying to get used to the new site layout, so i apologize if anything is wrong or misplaced.

    Can you listen to AM/FM radio on a windows 10 computer?

    One more thing. My church doesn't livestream their service for some reason. They said they're working on it but it won't be up by tomorrow. Believe me if they did, I would do that instead.
