Windows 10: Windows 10 displaying "No Internet" on my ethernet connection but I can still access the web

Windows 10 apps not working on the Ethernet Windows 10 VPN internet connection

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



In order to assist you with the appropriate troubleshooting steps, please let us know:

• 
  Does this issue occur only with Microsoft apps?
  
• 
  Are you able to browse any website while connected to internet?
  
• 
  Which build version of Windows 10 is installed on the computer? To check type:
  winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
  Enter.
  

As you have mentioned that you are connected to internet with Ethernet via Windows VPN, I would suggest you
try disconnecting VPN and see if you are able to access the applications.



We await your response.

How can I connect a home web server directly into the main internet hub? [closed]

You still have to deal with the transport of your data, from you to the IXP...
Then, the cost of the IXP's connection and bandwidth cost... and, so on.
Are you starting you own ISP?

Here is an example of the cost for just the IXP connection at Big Apple IXP:

"No Internet Access" on Ethernet and Wireless - Windows 10

Steps taken to resolve:

• Downloaded from Realtek and installed Windows 10 driver for Realtek PCIe FE Family device
• reset winsock and ip4 and ip6.
• reset DNS cache
• forced media connection by changing ip4 to fixed ip address, gateway, and dns server. Able to ping other devices on network - including gateway, but could not connect to internet. Diagnose unable to find issue with connection.
  • "ipconfig /release" message is "no operation can be performed on (adapter name) while it has its media disconnected."
• when using DHCP, do not receive response from default gateway, so ipconfig has strange addresses. Diagnose returns:
  • "Ethernet" doesn't have a valid IP configuration.
• all other computers on network able to use DHCP for addresses.

trudging through topics on tech forum(s) to find other solutions. Need suggestions on resolution.
