Things have been weird on my computer lately. Microsoft wants me to load Windows 11. I have not heard much good about it so I am trying to stay on Windows 10. After the last time I refused to change over, I have no internet.
I have tried and had my son try. It just is not working but I connected to wifi which is working. I don't understand and wonder if the reason I don't get internet is because I did not change to Win 11.
I have run out of ideas. What do you think I should or should not do? Is your internet weirded out?

@Shivram59 Wow, I thought your nation of India was not that far advanced. I did not know it was good for the internet. I don't know why ours is so bad. You pay ahead of time for the month and they probably don't really care because they already have your money.

My internet was lagging but I knew the issue. It was my router, so I bought a new one. Hope you get your internet resolved soon.

@LadyDuck It is not my account. I am staying with someone who has the internet and I do not have the authority to talk to them. I can't talk to the person about the internet without her getting angry and upset. So I just deal with things as they come up.

I don't plan to but I think they can force it on you at some point. If I ever get a new computer, I will get one with Windows 11 or 12 if it is out by then. I plan to use this computer as long as possible and keep doing work arounds or whatever I need to do to keep it going another day or month.

I hope you were able to figure out the problem and that your internet is working okay now. I switched from Windows 10 to Windows 11 without any issues.

I think I have windows 11. Not sure. I have had internet problems too with the Wifi going in and out. I think my problem is where I am at the moment. Sometimes the wifi doesn't work in the living room.

I've had computer issues for the past month and haven't been on MyLot. Can you call your internet service provider?

That's why I always turn off the auto update option in the system using the "services" option. Doing this helps a lot !

I don't think your internet problem is caused by your decline to upgrade to Windows 11. Microsoft wants me to do that all the time, but I'm still using 10. No problem with my internet.

@akalinus May be you can check with your internet service provider and see if they are doing maintenance.
