Help. Windows 7 cannot communicate with primary DNS server.
I use a wired connection to my desktop PC and it's worked fine example for several years. Today, my connection was slow and after 5 minutes, I lost the connection completely and got the "cannot communicate with PRIMARY DNS server error message when I selected troubleshooting. I rebooted and ran into the same issue. I could connect for about 5 minutes and then lost connectivity. I rebooted the router but that didn't fix the issue. I'm able to connect using my tablet and phone via WiFi, just not the desktop. If I unplug the wired connection jack and then plug it back in, the connection is restored for a minute or two before failing again.
I haven't updated anything recently. Not sure what to do.
