    Install a driver for your network adapter

    Did all you said, didnt work
    Also, i already have the cd. It is not its drivers people. It is something else
    If it was the drivers the wireless usb key would have worked.
    All kind of drivers suggested, official and other things didn't work.
    It must be something blocking my pc network

    How to change the driver Catagory from autoupdate as a Port driver to a Network Driver

    hosted network drivers

    Hello,

    This issue can be due to incorrect network adapter settings or incompatible WiFi drivers. In line with this, we suggest that you update your network adapter drivers.
    While it's likely you already have the most recent driver, if you're having trouble with a device, you can try fixing it by updating the driver or reinstalling it. Here's how:

    • In the search box on the taskbar, type Device Manager, and then select
      Device Manager from the list of results.
    • In Device Manager, select Network adapters > the network adapter name.
    • Press and hold (or right-click) the network adapter, and then select
      Update driver
      > Search automatically for updated driver software. Follow the steps, then select
      Close.
    • If Windows can’t find a new driver for your network adapter, visit the PC manufacturer’s website and download the latest network adapter driver from there.

    If you are trying to setup your computer as a mobile hotspot, you can also do it in the Settings. For more information, you may refer to the following link:

    Use your PC as a mobile hotspot
    .

    We also recommend that you download any pending updates that need to be installed through

    Windows Update
    and check if it helps resolve the issue.

    Let us know how it goes so we can assist you further.
