Hello
I have Windows 8 and have been dealing with this problem for quite some time. My internet has had an unreliable connection on my laptop, but my internet works fine on my phone. SO it's clearly a problem with something on my laptop. When trying to autofix the connection problem, I get the error message "The remote device or resource won't accept the connection." I've tried addressing the problem by trying several suggestions. One suggestion that seemed to work is when I went to:
Internet Explorer>Internet options>Connections>LAN settings
I see the Proxy server box is checked. I was told that if it is checked, to uncheck it. So I unucheck it, my internet begins working very briefly, then stops again. I check LAN settings again, and the proxy server box is checked again. How set this setting, and keep it? Perhaps some software is doing this? I appreciate all help.
