Angeló Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 So for the past two days or so Ive been getting the yellow “no connection”triangle even though my wi-fi is connected. It happens once or twice daily. I turn it off and on & it goes back to normal. I googled and one answer was to update the driver, but all my drivers are up to date (just one Bluetooth driver updated , which i never use anymore , bcz , hello , its bluetooth) .. Anyway , how do I fix this ? Should i call the internet provider ? Is it a Router problem ? Or from Windows 7 ? Thanks for the help in advance !

Duma Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Normally, hovering over it would tell you something more about the error. If it doesn't say anything, try clicking it and see if there's a message. It should say what network you're connected to and whether you're connected/have internet access or not.

alohadiscordia Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 are you actually not having a connection to the internet during that time? or is it just displayed but everything works as per usual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airazon Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 More info would help to know what exactly what's going on but, you can try to reset your winsock (Don't include the "") Open Command Prompt as administrator. Enter "netsh winsock reset". Restart your PC. Also, don't forget to check your driver publisher's website for updates. (In case you haven't already.) (Disclaimer: I'm in no way a professional at this or even very experienced. I've just had this issue before & this is how I fixed it.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nielo Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 @Angeló If your internet connection is up and running, and it's just the icon showing up, I (personally) wouldn't worry about it too much. Computers are weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
