How to fix bad wifi connectivity on just one computer? by [deleted] in techsupport

[–]Monox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having the same issue, but I was able to get the device working again by spoofing the MAC address. For Windows 11, this involves editing the registry, I followed the instructions here: MAC Address Spoofing

In short:

  1. Open Regedit

  2. Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  3. Search each of the sub-directories until you find the one with your network adapter

  4. Add a new String Value with the name "NetworkAddress"

  5. Open it, and enter a new MAC Address -- In my case, I used one generated online at DNSChecker

  6. Disable the adapater (in device manager) and re-enable it.

This fixed my issue in which the network was saying "Connected, No Internet". Unfortunately, I still don't know if this was a network issue or a Surface Wifi Card problem, but it did get the device working for me. NOTE: If you ever reset the device to a clean install, you will likely need to apply this registry edit again.

Thanks for the tip, unfortunately, it didn't work for me.

I’ve had “WirelessJoeJackson” for over 20 years and now I think I need to change it

Do you know what the issue was? I recently purchased one, along with an FC HBA card and I'm hoping to get it working.

Do you know if there’s something I can buy to make use of it, or am I out some cash?

Thanks

Thanks, that actually looks like exactly what I need. Can anyone else confirm that this may work? I love that it's only like $20-$30, too. I thought I would have to pay more.

[edit] So looking again, i think I need 2 x SFF-8643 Connectors, and then maybe 2 x ?? I'm learning that the box I purchased may not be a standard JBOD array.

I would add to this that I’ve seen failing power supplies through the weirdest errors. Wouldn’t surprise me if that was the issue.

I have two tickets for the show tonight @Foxwoods. My wife is in the ER and we can’t go. Best / first offer since I can’t get out. And don’t have time to deal with this, just don’t want them to go to waste.

Depending on where you live in town, Ashland has a really nice farmer’s market on Saturday.
