How to Fix “No Internet, Secured” Message on Windows 10
Do you get a No Internet, Secured error when trying to connect via Wi-Fi to the Internet? Don’t know how to fix the no internet secured Windows 10 error then this article is for you.

You are most likely to see a tiny yellow triangle when checking your Internet connection, and by clicking on it you will see a No Internet, protected error message.
This error appears to be caused by invalid IP configurations.
A small yellow triangle appears on the lower right side of the wireless icon and no internet-secured error message appears when clicking on it several users are found reporting the issue.
Well, this is a strange problem but the best part is it can be fixed.
How to Fix ‘No Internet, Secured’ Problem
Refresh Your IP Configuration
One of the easier solutions for the ambiguous “No Internet, Secured” message is to refresh your IP configuration. This reassigns your IP address, which will fix the problem if it was down to your IP allocation going out of whack.
Open the Command Prompt, then enter the following commands:
ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew
Once you’ve done these two things, the message will hopefully disappear.

Reset Winsock
There are a couple of other things you can try in the command prompt. The Winsock protocol controls an enormous chunk of your computer’s communication with network services and resetting it will reset many of those under-the-hood elements to their default settings.
To reset the Winsock catalog, enter the following into the command prompt:

netsh winsock reset catalog
Fix Your Connection’s Properties
There are plenty of little hooks to your Internet connection, lots of things that need to be in order for it to work as it should.
To check if everything’s in order, click the Wi-Fi (or ethernet) connection icon in the taskbar, then “Network & Internet Settings.”
In the new window click “Change adapter options,” then right-click the affected connection and click “Properties.”
In the Properties window, make sure all the following boxes are ticked:
- Client for Microsoft Networks
- File and Printer Sharing
- Internet Protocol Version 4
- Internet Protocol Version 6
- Link-layer Topology Discovery Responder

Once you’ve done that, click OK and restart your PC.
Disable iPv6
Yes, we did just tell you to enable IPv6 on your PC, but there can be an exception.
IPv6 is the relatively new internet protocol that more and more PCs are using because the number of available IPv4 addresses is simply running out.
Not all networking equipment and ISPs play nice with iPv6, however, so if you have this switched on, then it could be interfering with your connection.
(Or it’s possible that you’re connected to the Internet via IPv4, but your PC is essentially letting you know that your IPv6 connection has “No Internet.”)

If you suspect this might be the issue, uncheck the IPv6 box under your connection’s Properties (as accessed through the last tip).
Tinker in Device Manager
The Windows device manager (best accessed by typing “device manager” into the Start search menu), is where you can update, disable and re-enable, and reinstall your devices, including the network adapter.
In Device Manager click “Network adapters,” then locate your network adapter and right-click it.
You should try the following things in this order:
- Update driver.
- Disable device, enable “Flight mode” in the taskbar, reboot PC, then “Enable device” and turn off Flight mode.
- Uninstall the device, reboot the PC, and reinstall the device. (This should happen automatically for the motherboard or integrated adapters. If you’re using a USB adapter, just unplug it and plug it back in to install its drivers).
Those tips should just about do it to Fix No Internet, Secured message to stop appearing. We omitted the advice to restart your router because we imagine you’ve tried that already, but if you haven’t, then now you can try that, too.
