WiFi Autoconfig detecting limited connectivity
Hello, My Win 11 laptop keeps detecting limited connectivity with WiFi autoconfig, then the service restarts causing wifi outage. What is this looking for when detecting connectivity? Pinging...

If these endpoints are blocked by your firewall, Windows may interpret that as limited connectivity, causing the Autoconfig service to restart or reset the Wi-Fi connection repeatedly.

Thank you,
Is there anyway to change the behaviour or any documentation that shows anything?
From what I can see, the service pings Google DNS, then restarts, then tries the DHCP server in ipconfig and then two Microsoft addresses.
