Question

Laptop wifi frequently switches to 'No Internet'

Mar 14, 2017 4:02PM PDT

Hello. I laptop frequently displays an exclaimation near the wifi sybmol citing no internet. All I have to do is disconnect and connect again, which takes almost no time to fix it, but it is a big annoyance. My laptop does not have problems with other wifi networks, and other devices do not have a problem with this wifi network. Any suggestions on what could be the problem?

Thanks!
Rahul

I'd try getting your machine to forget that connection.
