    Do you think it's an issue with the wifi adapter driver not liking W10?

    Almost certainly. Can you wire the laptop(?) to a port on your router so you have LAN then delete the wi-fi driver and it's files. Then let Windows 10 download the driver from it's own database. Not wi-fi, but this sorted some driver issues for me on a Windows 7 Pro upgrade.

    It's a tower with a wifi card installed so the principal's the same. Will have a go at this. Thank you! :)

    I`m running build (10240) which is the latest for non insiders but I haven`t had any updates since 16th Aug.
    Should I have done.

    I did join the insider program and got a confirmation email but when I went to settings-update and security-advanced options, the "get insider builds" is shaded grey.

    Have had quite a number of updates installed, the last being 21/08. Not sure how to find the build version though!!

    I had that. Try Settings->Privacy->Feedback & diagnostics and set the Diagnostic and Usage to 'enhanced' then Insider option was enabled for me.

    Thanks for that, it did the trick.
    Are you taking part in the insider builds?

    Its not as wild as it sounds.
    I believe the recent build is scheduled for proper release in October.
    However be aware you are taking a higher risk vs standard retail releases.

    I can`t understand why my current build (10240) hasn`t been updating.
    Last update was 16th Aug.there must have been more since then.

    Press the Windows button, type in winver and press Enter. This pops up a new window with Windows version info. I also have build 10240.
