Keeps connecting wrong wifi

[lukamark]

Hi! I have very serious problem with my spectre. At home i have a wifi, but it is very far so i bought a wifi extender from Tenda. Every gadget and pc is connecting to the extender because it is a better wifi connection, but my spectre keeps connecting on the original wifi, and when it does, the internet is unusable.. Please help!

Hi! @lukamark, Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!

I understand you have wireless issues with your laptop.

Don't worry I'm here to help you out.

Did you make any software or hardware changes on your PC?

Please provide the product number of your PC to assist you better.

Manually change network settings

Manually changing the network settings can resolve wireless connection issues. Create a restore point in Windows, and then manually change the network settings.
Using the search box on the taskbar, search for and open Create a restore point.
The System Properties window displays.
Click Create.
Type a name for the restore point, and then click Create.
Windows creates the restore point.
Using the search box on the taskbar, search for Command Prompt. In the results list, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
If a User Account Control screen displays asking if you want to allow the app to make changes to your computer, click Yes.

Type the following commands one at a time, pressing Enter after each one.
netsh int tcp set heuristics disabled
netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
netsh int tcp set global rss=enabled
To open the TCP Global Settings, type netsh int tcp show global in Command Prompt and then press Enter.
Make sure all settings are disabled except Receive-Side Scaling State.
Close Command Prompt, reboot the system and then try to connect to the Internet.

If the issue still persists try uninstalling the wireless drivers from device manager and install the latest drivers using HP support assistant.

Note: Before uninstalling the wireless drivers make sure you connect the ethernet cable to your PC and then uninstall the drivers.

Refer this article to know more information about using HP support assistant.

Let me know if this works!

Have a great day! 🙂
