You won't believe it but, it is not working again.

@James. Bundy, I suggest a "Reset this PC" which should freshen up Windows files. All this experimentation may have messed with your settings.

I reseted it and got limited connectivity, so I changed the ipv6 setting and it seemed to work.
Thank you for your help.

 

[James. Bundy]

After another update, It went back to limited connection T-T. Ipv settings were not changed.

 

[James. Bundy]

It is just never ending

I still cant remember OR find my post on the Microsoft forums. I swear I had the same thing on my SP2. SSID or FIPS setting.. maybe just toggle them one at a time. and possible toggle the ip6 stuff. hold hope man, I was stuck for awhile.

 

[toaf]

did you toggle airplane mode? I'm still looking

 

[toaf]

ok, my issue is slowly coming back to me. wireless settings/wireless properties / security / advanced settings / I turned off FIPS and or wireless settings/wireless properties / connect even if not SSID

if I remember anything else ive tried I will try to put it here. it really was a long fight to get it going, but it was so long ago

 

[James. Bundy]

Thanks for your suggestions,
the fips setting was correct but I don't know how to get onto the ssid settings.

 

[James. Bundy]

It is still not connecting. any other ideas?

James,

Does it connect to other WiFi networks, (other than yours)? Can you try?

Also, remove your home network from "Manage known networks" and try to connect. This will re-introduce your network to your computer.
