Lately, my PC started giving me the 'no internet, secured' message when I connect to my Wi-Fi. At first, it was no big deal since disconnecting and reconnecting would usually fix it. But now, that trick doesn't seem to work anymore, and I often wait around 30 minutes to an hour for the connection to re-establish. Today was the longest wait I've had. I'm still using Windows 10 and don't plan on updating until support ends. Interestingly, no other devices in my house seem to be affected by this. Plus, my PC isn't far from the router. Today, I also noticed it sometimes says 'connected, secured' but still won't connect to the internet—though that's only happened a couple of times. Can anyone help with this?

Have you tried restarting your computer? Sometimes a simple reboot helps resolve network issues. It's important to do a proper restart, not just shut it down and turn it back on. That can sometimes clear up minor glitches that cause these connection issues.
I've actually done both—just shutting down and rebooting— but didn't see any improvement.
