If your Surface Pro is not connecting to the WiFi, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try. In this article, we will walk you through some of the most common solutions to fix Surface WiFi not working in Windows 10.
First, try opening the Command Prompt as an administrator. To do this, open the Start menu and type “cmd.” Right-click on Command Prompt and select “Run as administrator.” Press “Yes” to allow the program to make changes to your device. In Command Prompt, type the following: “netsh winsock reset” and press “Enter.” Then type “netsh int ip reset” and press “Enter.” Finally, type “ipconfig /flushdns” and press “Enter.” Type “exit” and press “Enter” to close the program. Restart your device and see if the issue is resolved.
If that doesn’t work, try going to the Control Panel. Open the Start menu and type “Control Panel.” Open the program and select “Network and Internet.” Click on “Network and Sharing Center.” Select “Change adapter settings.” Right-click on your network adapter and select “Properties.” Select “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)” and click on “Properties.” Select “Use the following DNS server addresses.” In the “Preferred DNS server” field, type “1.1.1.1.” In the “Alternate DNS server” field, type “1.0.0.1.” Press “OK” to save the changes. Close the window and restart your device.
If that still doesn’t work, try resetting your network settings. Open the Start menu and go to “Settings.” Open “Network and Internet.” Click on “Network reset.” Press “Reset now” and then “Yes” to confirm. Restart your device.
If none of those solutions work, try running the Internet Connections troubleshooter. Open the Start menu and go to “Settings.” Open “Update and Security.” Click on “Troubleshoot.” Click on “Internet Connection” and press “Run the troubleshooter.” Select “Troubleshoot my connection to the internet” and press “Try these repairs as an administrator.” Wait for the program to make any necessary changes to your device.
If all else fails, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling your network adapter. Open the Start menu and type “Device Manager.” Open the program and expand “Network Adapters.” Right-click on your network adapter and select “Uninstall device.” Press “Uninstall” to confirm. Restart your device and the adapter should reinstall automatically.
We hope these solutions help you connect your Surface Pro to the internet without WiFi.
