    Unidentified Network - No Network Access


    Okay so for the past two days I haven't been able to connect to the internet on my Desktop. It used to be that my internet would randomly disconnect 2+ times a day. But yesterday it went off and never came back online. Usually I would simply unplug the router for a bit then plug it back in and it would work.

    I tried a lot of possible fixes yesterday, and none of them worked. Oh, before I forget I should mention that I can get WIFI on my phone and laptop, but I can't get Ethernet to my Desktop. Well I just formatted to W7 from W8 and I'm still getting the unidentified network issue.

    I'll try my best to provide screenshots and whatever else could be needed but keep in mind I cannot get any internet access to my PC. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    I figured out it must be an issue with my computer. The ethernet works for my laptop, but still not for the desktop. Got off the phone with comcast, and the person I spoke with said they think it's an issue with my NIC. I don't know what that means, but I hope this information will be enough. If you need anything else please let me know.

    Any and all help is greatly appreciated

    Do you have the latest driver for your network adapter?

    Let's try a TCP/IP repair: How to reset TCP/IP by using the NetShell utility

    Also a Winsock reset: Open an elevated command prompt window (click Start > All Programs > Accessories , right-click Command Prompt , click Run as administrator ), enter this command, and restart the computer:
    netsh winsock reset

    Might worth doing sfc/scannow to check for any corrupted system files and please run Disk Check as well.

    If above tasks didn't work, assign Manual IPs.

    Hoping to hear from you again with a good outcome?
