Windows will disconnect a WIFI connection when it discovers there's no WAN internet - presumably Windows thinks ALL networks are connected to the Internet and this prevents using WIFI for an isolated LAN, and also throws you off the WLAN whenever the ADSL connection fails, even when you're busy using only internal LAN sessions.
THIS IS WRONG BEHAVIOUR.
I found a solution, and typically it's a REGEDIT task:
From : https://superuser.com/questions/1650052/how-to-keep-windows-10-connected-to-wifi-without-internet
Add a Registry DWORD “NoActiveProbe” value “1” at Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\NetworkConnectivityStatusIndicator
Job Done. You stay on your LAN even when the interwebs is down.
To remove a “permanent redirect” - e.g. from an http
to an https
URL - I found the answer here:

I recently had problems pasting text into Vim by the traditional RIGHT click method. Vim would enter Insert(VISUAL)
mode instead.
One solution when using Putty
is to use its own mechanism :
SHIFT+INS
I prefer to use RIGHT click, as it's more natural so I found the solution is to add
set mouse-=a
to ~/.vimrc
This solves the problem, and I don't need to use nano
when editing text files on my remote server via SSH
using Putty.

Basic Workflow
git add .
to add changed files to staginggit commit -m “commit message”
to do the commitgit push
to push new commits to github
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
(set All files
rather than txt
to be able to see the hosts
file in the file chooser)
Used on remote installations to create persistent SSH reverse
tunnels.
