    Connection to network, but no internet.


    Two days ago, I was on the internet and suddenly got kicked off. I thought it must be a short isp problem since I was still on the my home network. I soon discovered that the rest of the laptops in my home worked.
    When I troubleshoot it on my laptop, it says "DNS server not responding". I went online on another laptop and started looking for solutions. I tried the stuff like ipconfig /renew and those commands. I tried disabling a virtual adapter to no avail. I also tried re-configuring the dns settings on my laptop. None of this has worked for me.

    Here is what I get when I run an ipconfig /all:


    C:\Users\James>ipconfig /all

    Lets try to flush your DNS and restore internet settings.
    Open notepad and copy these lines and save the notepad as flush.bat.

    @Echo on
    pushd\windows\system32\drivers\etc
    attrib -h -s -r hosts
    echo 127.0.0.1 localhost>HOSTS
    attrib +r +h +s hosts
    popd
    ipconfig /release
    ipconfig /renew
    ipconfig /flushdns
    netsh winsock reset all
    netsh int ip reset all
    shutdown -r -t 1
    del %0



    Run the batch file and restart your router as well as laptop.Try to connect to internet.

    If this doesn't work you can always try Google Public DNS.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Flushing the DNS isn't going to help much when you have all those tunnel adaptors there in your ipconfig. That is the reason you are having problems staying connected to the internet. This is a very common problem.

    This usually indicates that you have a problem with your network driver. The rest of your ipconfig looks fine and your router is working but with all those extra tunnel adaptors you will have nothing but problems.

    If you want to get rid of those rogue tunnel adaptor entries you need to open up your device manager, then go to "view" at the top of the page and then select "show hidden devices" then go down to Network adaptors. You will then need too delete or uninstall all the extra "Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface" tunnel adaptors you see there, windows will create a new one automatically.

    After that check your ipconfig /all to see if they all have been deleted and post the results of your ipconfig/all here please. :)

    After that it should be easy to stay connected to the internet although you might want to look around for a better network driver.

    If they all don't show up you can change a registry setting to make them all show up "backup the registry first".

    Registry Settings, navigate too the following key.
    System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTE\CurrentControlSet\Control \Session Manager\Environment]

    Data Type: REG_SZ (String Value)Value Name: DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES
    Value Data: (1 = show all hidden devices)
