When I disable the bridge, wifi will autoconnect. This is literally a fresh install, a few hours old, I had the same issue on every windows 10 install I did (5 as of now) so there won’t be any interesting results, but I will try when I get home nevertheless.
Note again: If I go to the router and reset it, it now appear in the list and I can now connect.
After router was resetted, it did connect?
Same answer. No such option.
Yes it does but there is a glitch which prevents that from happening in some cases
Windows does that automatically, but the connection depends on many factors. However, Windows only relies on one, that is “Signal Strength” so it will automatically connect to the nearest connection instead of the fastest one.
Do you mean “Let Windows manage this connection” ? That would be found in Start > Settings > Network & Internet > Cellular > , though there is apparently a known bug with enabling/disabling this setting in Windows 10
I don’t have a cellular option under that. It could be a known bug, I had been able to set it before but the big update in April somehow reset that so I don’t know where to find it again.
Thanks
Also, I seem to remember an option in Settings that turns off the “Let windows manage…” setting. Something like that. Anyone know where that is?
I am having the same problem in windows 10 but i solved it by resetting TSP/IP. luckly it worked.
Tried regedit approach, didn’t work right away after restart. windows still needed a couple minutes before automatically connecting to wifi. then i tried disabling the microsoft wifi direct virtual adapter, and when i restarted my machine instantly connected to the saved wifi connection. Thanks Kevin.
Thanks for your posts. I disabled the Microsoft wifi virtual adapter and now my 4 year old laptop automatically connects to my dual modem again. Thanks. Side note, I had unticked the Power Mgmt to allow the wifi to poer save. I kept getting booted off my wifi because of that setting.
I did everything on this page at once and it worked, also changed Device Manager> 802.11ac> properties> advanced> Property: Minimum Power consumption ~ Value: Disabled
So i dont know what part of this worked but it fixed it 
Awesome it worked thanks
The registry thing fixed the issue ! Great ! A reboot was necessary.
Can we discuss this via email: kevinarrows@appuals.com
Hi Kevin. I am facing a more commercial issue with many PC’s running windows 10. I rely on min computers to stay connected all the time and to reconnect when possible. Is there a better more reliable method you can suggest for my need? The wifi doesn’t seem as stable as needed because they always need to stay connected in order to receive the data I send it from my platform.
Hey Kevin, I am about to try these steps but I have a more commercial use case where I can’t afford to have the wifi in my computers around the country stay offline. If I needed a better commercial solution for keeping mini pc’s running W10, could this help for that?
Thanks. I’m waiting to apply it for now, since I found another way to fix my wi-fi problems. One of the first things I tried was to update my wifi driver, but when I went to Device Manager it told me I already had the latest driver. The same did other driver update programs. I have an Intel wifi driver. My previous pc had Intel processors and I used the Intel Driver Update Utility to update. I found IDUU and downloaded it. This time it showed me I DIDN’T have the latest driver, as Device Manager else while told me, and so I let IDUU download the latest driver and since then my wifi connection has worked.
