    So, last Thursday our Comcast dropped out. Was without internet all weekend. The guy comes in yesterday, replaces the line and gets service restored to our wi-fi devices phones tablets laptops, but my hard-wired ethernet connected PC still can't connect to anything. It displays Connection Active on the task bar, but won't actually connect to anything.


    Here is what I have tried, based on some googling of the problem.


    - I have uninstalled the network adapter in Device Manager and rebooted. No fix.

    - I have tried Network Reset in the Network settings panel. No fix.

    - I have ran "netsh int ip reset" in Command Prompt. No fix.

    - I have ran ip config /flush dns, ip config /renew, and ipconfig /reset in Command Prompt. No fix.

    - I have cleared Firefox cache. No fix.

    - I have confirmed my Network Adapter has IPV4 and IPV6 enables, and is on Automatic Detect for DNS and IP address settings


    I'm at my wits end to what I can do to get this working again. Steam, Spotify, Discord, Firefox, Edge, all are affected. I have no functional internet on my hard-wired PC even though Windows says I do.

    :)

  2. Issues Connecting Newly Built PC to Ethernet

    I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right section but I'm having issues getting my newly built PC connected to the Internet. I have an Ethernet cord plugged into my modem and into my PC but Windows is not detecting a connection. Any help is appreciated.

    If this is of any help, my MOBO is an MSI Z97 Gaming 5.

    Using a router to connect PC with Ethernet

    Their is only one phone jack where a modem can be placed in our house and it is to complicated to get Ethernet from the modem up to my computer. I can still connect with wireless internet but I want to be able to use Ethernet. The modem is a all in one (router+modem). If I buy a router and place it in my room can it connect to the all in one modem without using a phone jack (Just plugging it into the power outlet) alowing me to connect the router to the PC using Ethernet?

    Win10 ethernet connection dropping,identifying,connected then drops

    I need help with my Windows 10 HP laptop network connection issue at home

    My internet keeps cutting in and out when connected through my ethernet cable to the router/modem
    Sais connected, then disconnects, then identifying, connected, then drops again and does this every 30 seconds sometimes a little sooner or a little later

    ( I have TWC or Spectrum now lol ) When it's on wireless wifi my internet is fine

    I think the problem lies in the Properties of (TCP/IPv4) or (TCP/IPv6 )
    and has something to do with DNS or DHCP but I am not sure

    I tried unplugging all the cables and restarting the modem and computer this doesn't work neither did the trouble shooting, my Windows 8.1 laptop does not give me this problem

    I already did the netsh wlan show wlanreport in command, also I tried ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew in the command window but still the same problem after restarting

    If you have any idea how to fix this send me an email I can also call you it would be greatly appreciated!
