error occurred while reconnecting - The network location cannot be rea
Hello All,
Devices range from laptops -> Workstations -> Server; the operating systems having issues are Win7 machines, and the equipment I'm connecting them to is a Server 2003 Server, Western Digital NAS, Server 2012 Server.
I've recently had an issue with this error on multiple PC's at my shop, and the end result is I cannot connect to any networked device, but I do have internet and I can see the devices in my workgroup under the "Network" drop down in File Explorer. So far the only changes I can see that happened during this problem starting up is Windows updates over the last few weeks.
I already ran the batch file from the sticky provided by "shadowjk" just in case, however I also ran all those commands manually prior to looking here, and the results were the same before and after.
So far I have tried:
- Uninstalling / reinstalling all NIC drivers
- deleting all managed networks
- Removing all antivirus / firewalls
- safe mode w/ networking
- system restore to a point prior to updates
- Changing workgroup to attempt to connect to personal server (server 2012 standard)
Here is some info that might help; note* I changed the MAC addresses to "X" for the post only, the real readout shows the correct information:
