    Laptop says connection to internet, however cant even web browser


    Hello everyone, to start off this is a wifi problem, with one router

    about 3 weeks ago it started

    I cant stay connected to the internet to web browser or play game or just about anything, however people right next to my on their laptops can do everything fine. Also this only happens with the router in my house, I have tested other places and I have perfect speed and connection. Also it is not bandwidth cause I have tested with only myself on the internet and no difference.

    I have tried changed my DNS to google, I have updated my drivers and even re installed them. Also I have disable firewall and my anti virus (tried safe mode) .Plugged in it works fine however I get drops from the internet that are super short ( I think that is normal tho). A I different forum helped me there, but after the first 2 steps, (DNS chance and driver update, they were stumped)

    My current mini fix is if I disconnect and re connect to the wifi I get a brief 2-3 mins of ok internet. Also ever now and then when I diagnose the wifi, it well say the default gateway could not be reached, and it would fix it for 3-4 mins. however most of the time it says nothing is wrong.



    I hope that was a decent telling of what is going on, and here is a ipconfig /all

    Also in my device manager I have these here, however only seconds ago did I try to disable them and get this new yellow message, so idk if they could be the cause.

    My suspicion if that your machine is struggling to pick up the signal based on the channel set. What channel is your WiFi set one? If so could you please try and change it to another one and then try again.

    If you do not know how to then please post your make/model of your router and i'll see if I can find some steps on how to.

    Your drivers do look a wee bit messy however I am not too concerned with them being the issue since this has not affected your connection to other wireless networks

    Many Thanks,
    Josh! :)

    Hamachi seems to be causing this problem on a daily basis around here lately.

    You will need to uninstall Hamachi completely from your system in order to fix this problem. :)

    If you still need to use Hamachi look for the latest version and try it.

    After uninstalling Hamachi it may help to clean up the network interface and flush the DNS cache etc. unzip and run the file below, let it run until your machine reboots which will be automatic.

    Hey thanks for the reply! So I only got hamachi about a day ago, cause I could bypass the internet to attempt to play a few lan games with no friends, but I well get that uninstall so the config /all looks different. Also we changed the channel off of 1 as a test if that could be the cause, but I shall switch that back here also.

    So I uninstalled hamachi, and ran that program as a admin, however it sadly did not change anything

    I can't imagine why only your machine appears to not work correctly but only on your particular router. Hamachi was the only problem I saw there besides the missing 6 to 4 adaptors etc. Usually just reinstalling the driver for this connection will fix the other drivers.

    Try updating or reinstalling the driver for this connection then try updating the firmware on the router. You might also try starting up in safe mode with Networking to determine if the problem is caused from an installed program of software.

    I am rather happy about how confusing this is, just cause I feel somewhat less crazy.

    Any who I ran it in safe mode and it still has the same problem, along with updating my drivers, then also uninstalled then and re installed still the same, however have not done firmware yet, roommate asleep in the living room so I can get back to you tomorrow on that.

    Also idk if this changed anything but when I do a test on speed and such, my upload seed is 0.5 - 0.1, which does not make sense to me, cause other people can be 2 feet from me and get great speeds, and even when I am the only one on our network, I still get that slow. however well post back if the firmware update makes a difference





    troubleshoot did something!

    efault gateway cant be reacted, Idk if that coulds help
