Adapter wont work (A7000 AC1900 Netgear Nighthawk wifi USB Adapter)

I recently moved into a new home and i have a PC that doesnt have a built-in wifi adapter. At my old home I had plugged in the AC1900 Nighthawk wifi adapter and it was able to pick up and connect to my wifi network. I have just bought a new adapter and plugged it into my PC, everything is detected and the drivers are installed but when i try to connect to my wifi network it keeps saying " No Internet, Secured." I have been working on fixing this for so long but no luck. Does anyone know a fix?

Model: A7000|Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi USB Adapter - USB 3.0

That may be down to Windows trying to protect you from what it sees as a dangerous network.

 

How are you trying to connect to the wifi? Using Windows "Network & Internet" settings.

I've tried both ways. Using the network and internet way and also the NETGEAR Genie. Both ways end up with it saying " No internet, secured"

It happened sometimes. But it will fix try these things:

Add DNS record and check (add google dns records)

Try to clean browser cache.

Try to install new updated network drivers.

Sometime drivers a not upto dated and you suffer internet connectivity issue while surfing websites.
