Wireless connection works, wired connection does not.

devzspy · 19 Jan 2012

So last night, my wired connection was working. I did not install any new software or download anything. Tried getting on the internet today and nothing. My computer has an IP Address but I can't get onto the internet at all. I can't ping google. I can ping my IP address assigned, can't ping my default gateway...

I have tried a different ethernet cable and I have changed the switch the computer is connected too.

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the ethernet drivers.

I have already performed an ipconfig /release & ipconfig /renew. I also tried ipconfig /flushdns.

I have performed a netsh winsock reset, netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log, netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log, netsh int ip reset.

After performing all of the above I am stuck with the exact same situation.

Here is my ipconfig /all

My university does not have my computer account or computer blocked.

Additionally, the link light on the computer is on and blinking.

Any help is appreciated

Fixed it...unplugged the switches, let the power stay off for about a minute. Plugged the power cord back in and it worked.
