== Limited or No Connectivity Using WiFi Due to Broken TCP ==If your WiFi device driver is fine, network settings are fine, and you are positive your WiFi connection is fine to a viable network that should be passing traffic, then you probably are dealing with a corrupted TCP/IP stack or Winsock related issue.  It is a known glitch in Windows 8 through Windows 10 - more crappy Microsoft programming bugs that cause uses unnecessary problems. Limited or no connectivity: The connection has limited or no connectivity. You might be unable to access the Internet or some network resources.You can use the command "netsh" to reset your network adapter in Windows 10.  If you type "netsh" and press enter you will be taken to a special command prompt within the netsh environment.  You can do this, or you can use netsh with parameters as we will show you below.  First you need to open a command shell with ELEVATED privileges (run as administrator).  Then type: netsh winsock reset catalog netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log*The first will reset the Winsock Catalog to a clean state. All Winsock Layered Service Providers which were previously installed must be reinstalled. This command does not affect Winsock Name Space Provider entries. *The second removes all user configured IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) settings. Restarting the computer is required before the default settings will take effect.Executing these two commands and rebooting the computer usually takes care of the problem.  Do not simply put the computer in hibernate or sleep, make sure you do a full reboot.Reference: http://www.velocitymicro.com/SupportArticles/Article_959.php
