[SOLVED] Latest Windows 10 Update changed my wi-fi ?

[psy1]

Hey,

After the latest Windows 10 update (the one with the little weather indicator on the bottom right) the wi-fi on my computer developed a 2 minute wait time before being usable.
There's a work-around I found and that's to manually click and connect. Otherwise, I have to wait about 2 minutes for it to connect.
But, I'm wondering if there's any way to make it work like it did before? Before the update the wifi was fully functional as soon as Windows had loaded.

Thanks in advance.

what WIFI do you have? is it built in or a USB stick?

Its possible you just need to update its drivers, if I knew what you had I could see what I can find

Hello Colif,

We have talked at length before.

My WIFI is an ASUS AC88 Dual Band AC3100 Wireless PCIe Adapter.

I think I've solved the problem now.
I disabled my 5Ghz connection on my modem in favour of using the 2.4Ghz connection.
Interestingly, when I enabled the 5Ghz connection, the wifi starts up immediately just as it should.

The reason I disabled the 5Ghz connection in the first place was because I just didn't use it, for reasons I used the 2.4Ghz.

I guess that's the problem solved.

self inflicted problems are always fun

I was looking through your past, i see we did talk at one stage.

Guess I mark as solved since you worked it out
