Windows 10 Install Hanging on Internet Connection
Solution 1:
I have resolved this issue. Can’t explain it, but deleted downloaded ISO File, increased sector size to 128GB. Windows installed and loaded as before, but got stuck at exactly same spot on not connecting to the internet (blue box on screen in Windows 10 start up). However, the lower left hand corner now changed it’s radio button to bypass the internet connection. Windows then finished install, loaded and started up.
BUT!.....No wifi!!! (another issue I’ve seen on this forum). Here’s how you resolve that:
- Insert formatted USB Drive. Open Boot Camp Assistant from Utilities.
- At top pull down Action and select Download Windows Support Software.
- When USB install is completed, Re-boot to Windows while leaving USB inserted.
- In Windows, go to USB Drive, Boot Camp folder, and start Setup.
- Drivers will get installed and Wifi should work (mine did).
What a frustrating 2 days this has been!
Hope this helps someone.

As a complete novice to anything related to computers I just clicked on “I have no internet connection” and then “continue with limited setup”. It continued to install and my desktop screen eventually appeared.
Once on the desktop screen I was able to select my internet connection and Windows then automatically continued with finishing the setup with no problems.
