Hi Russ, You could try this:
Right click on the Start button and, in the menu that appears, click on Device manager . Double click on the Network adapters section to expand it. Figure out which of the adapters in the list that appears is your computer's WiFi adapter and then right click on it. From the right click menu, click on Properties. In the dialog that appears, click on the Power management tab to navigate to it. Uncheck the Allow this computer to turn off this device to save power. Click on OK.

I use WIFI to connect to my home network. I also use it to connect to a WIFI network at a different location. With my ipad I can set the WIFI settings for each network and I can connect to each one without doing anything. With the laptop I have to change the adaptor option settings to connectt to the other network. -----Original Message----- From: Rod Hutton via Talk Sent: Sunday, January 7, 2018 6:23 AM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Cc: Rod Hutton Subject: RE: Connecting to two different WIFI networks on windows 10 laptop Russ, Can you give more details on exactly what you are trying to do, which devices are you trying to connect, etc. Best, Rod -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Russ Kiehne via Talk Sent: January 7, 2018 9:17 AM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List <[email protected]> Cc: Russ Kiehne <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Connecting to two different WIFI networks on windows 10 laptop I don't thaink that will work over a WIFI network? -----Original Message----- From: Rod Hutton via Talk Sent: Saturday, January 6, 2018 7:05 AM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Cc: Rod Hutton Subject: RE: Connecting to two different WIFI networks on windows 10 laptop Hi, If you know the computer name of the machine you want to access, just type the name, preceded by two backslashes, in the address bar of an explorer window, and the available shared folders on that machine will appear in the window.
