Windows 11 Internet connection problem
Windows 11 internet connection problem:
I need a little help here. My laptop is not connecting to the internet. I checked services and for some reason when I used find and fix network problems, it said that the networking services might not he working as expected.
When I checked services and looked at network connected devices ato-setup and press start, I get the message saying
"the network connecting devices auto-setup service on local computer started and then stopped. Some services alstope automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs"
I havn't been able to figure out. Can anybody please tell me what service stops this service from starting? I can't figure it out.

The "Network Connected Devices Auto-Setup" service (service name: NcdAutoSetup) is a legitimate Windows system service that monitors and installs qualified network-connected devices . When you try to start it manually and see "started and then stopped," this usually means one of the services it depends on isn't running properly.
Try to reset Network once, see if it helps:
- Open Settings app,
- Click Network & internet and click on Advanced network settings.
- Now click on Network Reset.
- Under Network reset, click on Reset now button.
- In confirmation prompt appearing next, click Yes.
- Restart to complete the operation.
Let us know if this helps!
