Windows 10: Ethernet Port Issues

I am having troubles with my ethernet port not connecting to my router. The router shows that it is sending data to the ethernet port, but when I run the troubleshooting, it is saying "Ethernet 2 doesn't have a valid IP Configuration". I haven't messed with my config and everything was working up until sometime this morning. My router had some issues and I have resolved them to where my WIFI is working on the laptop, but the ethernet will not function properly. If there is anything that I need to add information wise, please ask.


Thank you.

Ethernet port not blinking...

possibly your ethernet port has died...

Unless if you format/reinstall windows , and see if that way... but overall, physically take a look at the motherboard in the computer, and see if any capacitor's top's have blown open or even have a bump on them (the tops of the capacitors should be flat) . If any indication that happens, then your mobo is eventually gonna die.

Other than that, u went through all other steps that are very known..

**My Friends system not to long ago has the exact same issue, and there were caps blown, but only the ethernet didnt work

 

Cannot connect to ethernet no valid ip configuration

We appreciate the information you've provided. We'd like to confirm the results after following the steps on the link provided on our previous post.

Meanwhile, to isolate your concern, we suggest that you check the following:

• 
  If the Ethernet port is clean.
  
• 
  If the end of RJ45 (Ethernet cord) is still intact.
  
• 
  If available, test the RJ45 (Ethernet cord) to your other device and check if issue persists.
  

We look forward to your reply so we can assist you further.

 

ethernet ports

Hi,
I just noticed that my mobo has 2 ethernet ports. Currently my download speed is around 15000kb/s on speedtest.net, I was just wondering if i plugged in another ethernet cable to the open ethernet port, will my download speeds double?
