    So i have this old problem with windows 8.1

    I've google it, and i found that in windows 8.1 they introduced internet explorer 11, and that one does not have anymore the option to auto-connect your broadband internet when the win8.1 is loaded. Like in windows 8.0

    So there is any fix for this ? Microsoft didnt do anything to fix this, and passed many months since win8.1 release....

    Any help ?

    Is your PC a laptop?

    maybe a little more inof - provided would help, every Desktop I have will connect automatically, when booted, but I also have a DESKTOP that thinks it is a Laptop and if Airplane mode is on and Wifi is Off, it will not connect.... so make sure Airplane mode is OFF and Wifi Mode is On.
    or you might try, logo + C - search -> settings -> wifi -> then select fix or repair...
