Hi, Update your network card driver to the latest one firstly. If it doesn't work, try Clean Boot the computer and as a test turn off the firewall/antivirus-software to see the result. Do you use IPv6? Temporarily disable it then check if the computer will connect the internet.

Hello everyone!! I've been having trouble with my desktop computer, it was working fine and then bam it could not connect to the internet anymore. I've tried a new cable calling the internet provider, buying a wireless setup with no joy :(. I have a laptop that is still able to connect via wireless and wired Ethernet so the internet shouldn't be the problem. Here is the ipconfig/all. Primary Dns Suffix: (blank) Node type:hybrid IP routing Enabled:no WINS Proxy enabled: No Wireless LAN adapter Description:Wireless N-300 USB Adapter WNA3100 Physical Address:**.**.**.**.**.** DHCP enabled:yes Auto configuration enabled:yes Autoconfiguration IPv4 address:169.254.253.234<preferred> subnet mask:255.255.0.0 Default gateway:(blank) NetBios over TCPIP:Enabled Ethernet Adapter local area connection 2 Connection Specific DNS suffix: (blank) Description: NVIDA nForce Networking controller Physical Address: **.**.**.**.**.** DHCP enabled:yes auto configuration enabled: yes Link Local IPv6 Address: fe*****************************(preferred) Auto configuration IPv4 address:169.254.159.219(preferred) subnet mask:255.255.0.0 Default gateway:(blank) DHCPv6:************ DHCPv6**-**-**-**-**-**-**-**-**-**-**-** And that's it. Thank you all in advance for reading such a long post. And any help will be greatly appreciated :) Thanks once again!

Try temporarily turn off the firewall or anti-virus software then check if it works. What's the model of your router? Update the driver to the latest one. In addition, try use the troubleshooter and see if it works.
