Windows 10: Issues with no internet connection at all.

For the past month or so, I've been experiencing connection problems on my laptop. As I use the internet, the F12 key on my keyboard turns orange and I am suddenly not able to connect to any networks at all. When I run the troubleshooter, it tells me to plug in an Ethernet cable despite having a wireless adapter/connection.


I have tried methods such as:

• uninstalling and reinstalling the adapter, then rebooting my laptop - in some cases it has worked, however the connectivity problem arises again shortly after I start using the internet.
• installing a driver using the Windows Recovery Manager - I'm not really sure whether this works or not, as the times I have tried this ended up with a force restart = the blue screen with the sad face. After that restart, the problem gets fixed, but again after only a short time the problem returns.
• updating the adapter driver - I have done this through searching automatically for updated driver software (when I do so, it says it's up to date) and browsing my computer. Overall, there are no changes when I do this.

When I am connected to the internet and when I believe that my problems have been solved, I lose connection from time to time and I am met with the message "The default gateway is not available." after troubleshooting, which ends with a reset of the adapter and gets fixed. However, it occurs multiple times, ending with the problem I've mentioned before.


Any help with hopefully a permanent solution will be appreciated. Thank you.

Internet Connectivity Issues

So heres the deal. My brother who is behind the opposite wall of me is having internet issues. The router is here in my room and his internet is plugged into the Linksys E2000 via a wire going from it to an ethernet wall socket going to his room and into his computer.

He has been having iffy internet for the past 2 days. Fixed it yesterday by rebooting now the problem has resurfaced.

What we have tried:

• Testing the ethernet cables with a tester. Passed
• Tested onboard ethernet with known working cable (computer hooked up using my connections in my room) Passed
• Checked to make sure there was no static IP address in IPv4 settings. Passed
• Made sure the Network Connection wasnt full on disabled. Passed
• Swapped the cable leading from the router to the wall outlet in my room. Passed and worked for a few minutes.

With regards to that last bullet point, the computer is no longer getting internet again despite working for a few minutes. Testing the new cable again, tells us that pins 1 and 2 are "open". That is the second cable in a row that the tester is spitting this message out on.

Any ideas guys? Im out of them.
