![]() Maybe I’m pressing the wrong thing during the WPS cycle. When I try press Connect on the PC when the WPS is active, it fails to connect. Not sure what to do on the Dell LT to get it to respond to the WPS. Can you ping the Router from the non-connects? Also, while in the network card info, compare the Status\Detail info. In the past (probably not the case with a new Router) IPv6 had to be turned off. I assume you tried setting a fixed IP address in the Router’s range for the ones having trouble? Also compare the IPv4 and IPV6 settings on the ones do connect and the ones that do not. Sounds like the Router has WPS enabled (push the button to connect). I need to find out why the router won’t allow these devices to connect and how to correct that problem. I would appreciate any help to resolve this as after a long time with AT&T support and their prompt screen of what to do next I got the contact the laptop’s manufacturer for help because the “router is working since my other devices are connected.” This is clearly the Router preventing connection to previously connected to devices. I have the Smart Phone App from ATT and it shows both the Windows 7 and the Dell as a previous connection but with no way to reconnect in that app (which is the only reason I installed it). The Dell that can’t connect to the network can connect to other WiFi networks. I’ve checked the connected setting in the connected laptop and they are the same. When this happens all other devices are still connected. All attempts including pressing the connect on the router while manually connecting. Now my Dell Windows 10 (Home 22H2) laptop which I don’t boot up very often and used to auto connect when I boot up is doing the same thing and giving the “Can’t connect to this network” message. That worked or it just started working and connects every time I boot it up. ![]() I did a search for fixes and came across an article that said to push a “connect” button (two curved arrows making a circle under the white connection light) while manually setting up the WiFi connection. Never got the WiFI to connect.Ībout 2 weeks after that my MSI Windows 10 (Home 22H2) laptop did the same thing. I resolved this by hooking the Windows 7 vis Ethernet cable. Thus the router was the only thing preventing connection to specifically this device. All other devices connected to the router via WiFi were working and the WiFi on the Windows 7 was working as it was able to connect to the WiFi hotspot on my iPhone. Not all devices connect on a daily basis.Ībout two weeks after the switch, my wife’s Windows 7 lost WiFI connection and all attempts (restart network adapter, delete and manually create a connection) to set up the connection result in message. All WiFi devices connected to the new router using the old preset password including this laptop. All settings from old router were transferred to the new router including my WiFi access password. ![]() I recently (~2 months ago) upgraded from DSL to Fiber thru AT&T which resulted in a new AT&T router model BGW 320. Title too long- This error message for a device that previously was connected to that network. I hope this is the correct place to post this. ![]()
