  1. Ethernet refuses to use Internet


    I am using an Ethernet connection hooked up to a Wi-Fi Extender for a Windows 10 PC. Ordinarily it works, but today it has decided it doesn't want to connect with the Internet. Everything is plugged in, I have reset the router and the Wi-Fi Extender, I have performed a network reset, run commands to flush the DNS cache, reinstalled and rolled back the drivers several times, and the only thing that has even given me a clue at all is running the troubleshooter. The troubleshooter says the extender it's connected to is not responding, but I know the PC is connected to the extender through an app,

    IP configuration not valid - interference from ethernet adapter?


    Solution 1: No Internet Access In Windows 8.1or Windows 10

    Step 1:

    Go to Device Manager → Network adapters.
    Step 2:

    Expand it (Network adapters).


    Step 3:

    Select your network adapter


    Step 4:

    Right click on your wireless network adapter or Ethernet adapter and then tap “Update Driver Software”.
    (in this case your network adopter is Ethernet adopter so tap your Ethernet adapter)
    Step 5:

    Now on a new window you will need to click on “Browse my computer for driver software”.

    Step 8:

    After the completion of the process just restart your PC and check if the problem is solved or not. If not, goto solution 2.

    Solution 2: No Internet Access In Windows 8.1,windows10

    Step 1:

    Open command prompt.
    Step 2:

    Just go on hitting the enter after typing the each command.
    netsh int tcp set heuristics disabled
    netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disable
    netsh int tcp set global rss=enabled
    Step 3:

    Now to check if the settings are disabled type:
    netsh int tcp show global
    then hit enter.
    Step 4:

    Now the thing left is just rebooting your system and just check if the problem is solved or not and just give feedback.*chuckle*Thumbs

    Changing internet type on a internet passthrough ethernet connection

    Hi SanJ16,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forum.



    You may try the following steps on your laptop and check if it works.

    1. Open ‘Settings’ and choose ‘Network and Internet’.
    2. Click on ‘Ethernet’ and tap ‘Properties’ for the network connection.
    3. Set it to ‘Private’ and turn on ‘Make this PC discoverable’.
    4. Close settings when finished.


    Hope it helps,
