I don't think that the Windows update has got anything to do with the wireless, also given the fact that it seems to be affecting your TV as well.
There could be hundreds of reasons why your WiFi is not working as before.
Given that it doesn't seem you have much experience in this, it would be quite difficult to point you in any direction.
It could be anything from a faulty WiFi router, to an overcrowded channel, to some interference in the way...almost impossible to troubleshoot without more details.0 -
Wifi is from your hub not ethernet.
Its probably worth factory reseting the router first .
What are you using to connect to wifi.0 -
Your post is a bit confusing.
Can you clarify - are you having WIFI problems with all your devices (tv etc) or only your computer ?0 -
THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLIES
ill try to reset the router now do I put the password that's at the bottom or the router or the password I changed it too after the reboot the wifi I was hopeing to use for my other computer and the tv
the ethernet cable was connected to the hub when wind 10 rebooted with the upgrade and there wasn't any wifi on the main computer so I thought try using a dongle and the wifi showed up in the settings I didn't know the tv wasn't working with the wifi when amazon asked why I wasn't using there prime video sorry about the long winded and sorry if I sound thick this chemo dose your head in0 -
