  1. Ethernet cable says no internet connection but I still have access to most applications


    So when I log into my pc it says I have no ethernet connection, but when I launch Chrome or try to play some games I have the connection. But for certain applications I don’t have access, like Spotify.I’ve tried network reset and flushing my dns, as well as reinstalling network drivers also disabling firewall.Is there a fix for this ?

    :)

    No internet after connecting Home AV system Ethernet cable

    Dell XPS8900 Desktop System works fine, then I connect the Ethernet from the PC to the new Home HiFi AV system (via Sonos S-Connect) After that I get no access to the internet. If I disconnect the Ethernet cable (and reboot?) I get internet again. If I
    connect the Ethernet cable after first establishing access to the internet, I get internet AND control of the Home HiFi AV system until the PC goes to sleep or is turned off, then no internet again. Any suggestions please. Regards

  3. Ethernet connection Error

    I am trying to access the internet via ethernet cable directly coming from my ISP but when I connect the cable to the ethernet port it still says ethernet cable is unplugged. but when I run ipconfig on cmd it says ethernet adapter ethernet connected and
    also show ipv4 & subnet mask. However default gateway is empty. Please suggest how can I connect using the ethernet cable.

    Ethernet cable says no internet connection but I still have access to most applications

    Cannot connect to Internet via direct Ethernet cable connection.

    Hello. Have had this PC for about a year now. Came as Win7, updated to Win10 shortly thereafter. It is incapable of connecting to Internet wirelessly, so I connected it to modem directly through Ethernet cable. Have never had any problems whatsoever with
    connectivity to the Internet.

    All of the sudden, as of about last week, I would start up my PC and it would be disconnected from the Internet. It cannot detect any sort of Internet connections despite being directly connected to the modem. Even wirelessly connected devices in my home
    like smartphones and tablets were unaffected by whatever ails my PC/Ethernet cable/etc.. I had:

    • Restarted PC
    • Unplugged and replugged in modem after 30 seconds
    • Uninstalled drivers
    • Checked for driver updates (of which there were none)
    • Switched Ethernet ports
    • Switched Ethernet cables
    • Turned off firewalls and other malware-detecting programs
    • Reset network devices
    • ...and a host of other troubleshooting tips I have now forgotten
    None of these worked, but after 10-20 minutes, the Internet returned to normal. It has just happened again, and I did not retry any of the aforementioned actions, and, once again, it returned after 10-20 minutes.

    It may seem to be a very trivial problem if the Internet ultimately comes back, but this effectively means my PC's startup time is extended to about 20 minutes, and this proves to be extremely inconvenient when I need to access the Internet.

    Please offer any suggestions you think would solve this problem. Whatever system specifications are needed I will provide.
