  • PC connect to wired network to the Internet, Auto connect Wifi to Mevo+

    This might help someone...

    I couldn't the PC to auto connect the WIFI to the Mevo+ when using a wired internet connection to the PC.
    I found the answer here on the link below. Tested a few times on Windows 10 and it just auto connects to the Mevo+ now.
    It auto connects if the Mevo+ is on when booting, or you turn it on after booting. You might have to 'forget' you home wifi connection so it picks the Mevo+

    Please test on Windows 11 and post back if it works.

    • Run Regedit.
    • Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Win dows\WcmSvc\
    • Does the GroupPolicy subkey exist? If not right-click New->Key and create it.
    • Now inside of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Win dows\WcmSvc\GroupPolicy right-click inside the right pane and select New->DWORD. Name it fMinimizeConnections
    • Leave the default value zero so that the policy is disabled. You shouldn't HAVE to reboot, but you may.
    • After that your wireless connections that are set to automatically connect will do so even with a LAN plugged in. Obviously if you are on a domain your domain admin can override this local policy.
    Or you may config this settings via Group Policy Editor:
    Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Network -> Windows Connection Manager -> "Minimize the number of simultaneous connections to the Internet or a Windows Domain" to "Disable".​
