I have 2 PCs connected in my home network, 1 with Windows 10 and the other with Windows 7. The Windows 10 PC is connected to my BT hub via an Ethernet cable, and the Windows 7 PC is connected via Wi-Fi.
Occasionally, usually after a re-boot of my Windows 7 PC, I lose part of the connection between the PCs. I can still use the Windows 7 PC to read and write files to the Windows 10 PC but not the other way around!
I assume this is a Windows 10 issue? Once I had found out what my Network Credentials were on the Windows 10 PC, then I could eventually get the network back up and fully functional.
But there are still 2 problems - 1 minor and 1 very annoying!
First the minor problem - why do I still keep losing the full network capability occasionally even though I clicked the 'remember the credentials box'? I can live with this but it's annoying.
Second and much more problematic, when I do lose the full network capability, although I now know my network credentials, how do I get Windows to ask me for them to fix the network problem? I haven't been able to find a way to get Windows to do this! In the meantime, I have to wait (sometimes for a day) for Windows to fix the network issue by itself or to eventually re-ask me to enter the network credentials.
I'd be very obliged if anyone can help!
Thanks,
