    How do I fix my wif it only allows me to use ethernet?


    I've tried looking at the help bar for people who have the same exact problem as me, but it still is not working. I've tried downloading the new drivers and I've tried to get ng back to bios and making sure my wifi is on but it keeps on saying not connected, also I've tried troubleshooting but it only tells me to connect ethernet but I want to use a wireless wifi connection not ethernet.

    :)

  2. 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.

    How do I fix my wif it only allows me to use ethernet?

    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
