Cannot connect to WIFI

I am completely baffled! This has been ongoing! Please help. Cannot connect to WIFI. (Nothing else seems to be having any issue connecting.) I am on a laptop and connecting to the WIFI in my Chevy Silverado. I attempt to connect, and the computer checks requirements and then says it can’t connect to the network. It does the same thing when I try to connect to my phone.

Here is what I have tried.

Turning the Wi-Fi off and back on

Restarting computer

In Device Manager I have uninstalled the wifi and reinstalled it.

Checked for updated drivers

Forgot the Wi-Fi connection

I did a Network Reset

Ran Command Prompt as Admin

  • Command Prompt – netsh winsock reset (Reset Sockets catalog
  • Command Prompt – netsh int ip reset (Reset TCP/IP stack configurations)
  • Command Prompt – ipconfig /release (Released my IP)
  • Command Prompt – ipconfig /renew (Requested a new IP)
  • Command Prompt – ipconfig /flushdns (Cleared the DNS cache)

Turned the truck off and back on

Nothing works until I hold the call disconnect on the steering wheel, and it resets the infotainment center, and I can connect to both WIFIs. If I do not do a reset, it never connects to any WIFI.
