I updated Win10, Build 1507 to Build 1803 and lost my internet connection. I reinstalled Build 1507 and my internet connection worked correctly. I later updated to Build 1809 and, again, had to reinstall Build 1507 to get my internet connection back. I read on the internet that certain Intel CPU’s had that problem. Is there a possibility that Build 2019 will solve that problem?

1507 reached End of service May 9, 2017.

— How did 1507 run during those 2 years of End of service?Are you losing internet connection wired or wirelessly?
On “certain Intel CPU’s”, which “certain Intel CPU’s” are mentioned?
— What is your Intel CPU?“Is there a possibility that Build 2019 will solve that problem?”
— I don’t think there is a direct answer on that at this point.Not knowing how you updated to 1803 and later on to 1809 I would consider removing any externally connected items, go to the Windows Update status page and select Check for Updates ensuring you can revert back to 1507 if called for.
— Are you using a system image backup to revert back to 1507?HP EliteBook 8540w laptop Windows 10 Pro (x64)

Did you try Network Reset?
Can you post a screenshot of your active networks in the Network and Sharing Center?
Did you try the troubleshooter on that page—?Lugh.

AskWoody PlusMay 21, 2019 at 9:48 am #1717302If you’ve had this problem on 1803 & 1809 then the next build isn’t going to solve your problem. After the upgrade to a newer version, are you able to connect to the internet at all or are you just having problems with seeing other networked computers in File Explorer (which is a common problem in W10)?
Personally, I have never heard of an Intel CPU specifically having a problem with connecting to the Internet so could you post a link to where you saw that? From your description of the problem, my guess would be that you have a problem with your PC and not with the newer builds of Win 10.
Don't take yourself so seriously, no one else does
