I've just updated to the latest version of Windows 11, and now my WiFi is acting up. I can see all the available networks and try to connect, but it always says 'no Internet secured.' I've even tried USB tethering to my phone's data, and that's not working either, so it's definitely not an issue with the router since everything else connects fine. I've already flushed the DNS and tried some netsh commands, but I'm stuck. Any ideas on how to get my internet working again?

What type of machine do you have? If you're on a laptop, you might want to check if there are additional network settings that got reset. Sometimes driver issues arise after updates, too.
Sounds like you're dealing with a typical Windows update mess. It might be worth waiting a bit before jumping into updates if you want to avoid these issues. I started avoiding updates for a couple of months after something similar happened to me. I even began switching to Debian because of all the headaches I've had with Windows updates. They're just driving me nuts with all these problems!
I totally get it! I didn’t even manually update; the power went out and Windows decided to update itself. Annoying, right?
It's a PC. Honestly, I'm thinking about just switching to Linux now. I can't even log into my computer because it wants me to set up a new pin that needs internet!
