Quote:Microsoft has acknowledged another known issue affecting Windows 10 devices with WWAN LTE cellular modems and is now blocking Windows 10, version 2004 from being installed on them until a solution will be available.
Some devices with WWAN LTE modems might be unable to connect to the internet and may show no internet connection in the Network Connectivity Status Indicator (NCSI) within Windows 10's notification area according to Microsoft. Microsoft says that this issue only affects Windows 10, version 2004 desktop platforms, with Windows Server, version 2004 devices not being impacted.
The company has applied a safeguard hold on all Windows 10 devices with affected WWAN LTE modems drivers, preventing Windows 10 2004 from being offered through Windows Update until the issue is resolved.
"We are working on a resolution and estimate a solution will be available in late September," Microsoft said.
Until a fix for this issue is available and the safeguard is removed, Microsoft urges customers not to attempt to manually update to the latest Windows 10 version using the Media Creation Tool or the Update now button.
For the moment, customers with devices already running Windows 10 2004 can mitigate the issue by toggling Airplane mode on and off.
"To do this, you can select the Start button, type airplane mode and select it. In the settings dialog, toggle Airplane mode on then off again. You should now be able to connect as expected," Microsoft explained.
