Wifi network is not showing up in windows 10 september 2 2020 by sambit koley if you are trying to access a wifi network from your device but your wifi network is not showing up in the available networks list and you are trying to find a solution for your problem you are in the right place.
Wifi sign up page not showing.
In the new page that opens go to the public network settings category and select turn off windows defender firewall not recommended and then click the ok button.
On the wifi screen make sure that wifi is set to on position and your wifi network shows as being connected see image below.
Tap on settings wifi.
See if the login page will now come up.
However this may not work all the time and you are out of luck here head over to the next step below.
After i reverted everything back to ie was able to access the wifi network login portal.
Tracked it down to app permissions in the end after installing firefox it had become default for html but not default for http https.
The simple act of switching wifi network on off is known to fix the problem of android phone not connecting to wifi network.
Sometimes this trick will bring up the wifi authentication portal page.
The trick i found was at the top the screen says login but.
Restart your pc reconnect to the wi fi network and launch your browser.
If you connect to an open network at your friend s house say typically you won t need a password and can just start browsing the internet directly.
I was getting a blank page when the login screen appeared with no way to sign on to the wifi network.
That s only a problem only with open public unsecured wi fi networks.
My samsung a5 suddenly stopped showing a login page automatically instead i have to type 192 168 1 1.
