Windows 10: Windows update says no internet connection

Hey guys. I have a problem with windows update saying I have no internet connection while using a PPPoe connection. But everything else on my pc that requires internet works. If i plug into my router it works instantly but its a pain having my computer plugged into the router with the set up i have. Would love it to just work on the PPPoe setup. Any suggestions? Thanks heaps in advance.

:)

Network Settings says No Internet Connection, But...


I've tried unselecting the option but I didn't fix the issue - nor could I see why it would.

The following things connect to the internet fine:

• Microsoft Edge (new IE)
• Chrome
• Skype
• Steam's browser and Steam multiplayer games
• League of Legends launcher, patcher, PVP.net and game client
• Battle.net
• Pretty much everything

What doesn't work:

• Network Center (says I'm not connected)
• Windows Live Mail (logging in)
• Outlook (logging in)
• Notepad 8 (logging in)
• User Accounts (logging in)

The issue seems to affect any Microsoft product that tries to connect to Live.
