How do i fix this? if you name every solution possible, i bet i’ve done it already. I’ve reset the network, i’ve done the netsh int update reset commands, everything. and don’t ask why i scribbled out the wi-fi name. i don’t even know

anyone know what to do

#

does the IP you get by wifi makes sense ?

#

compared to the one you get via ethernet ?

#

do your wifi connexion gets all parameters ? (IP, DNS, gateway)

#

is that a work laptop or your own ?

#

when only your wifi is on and ethernet is unplugged, what happens when you ping your gateway ? what does happen when you ping google (8.8.8.8) ? what happens then when you ping google.com ?

@warm junco interesting pfp btw

thanks for the help, but it fixed itself i guess

#

i don’t know

#

just now i unplugged my ethernet and my wi-fi was “connected, secured”

warm junco Jul 7, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

oh, so it was only a DHCP transient problem

#

thought it could be a fixed IP on the NIC, or even having RADIUS setup (hence my question about work laptop)

#

yea it’s my personal home computer

warm junco Jul 7, 2023, 2:09 AM

#

BTW, if you have the problem once again, you can force your network card to get a new IP from your DHCP server (which could be your ISP router if you have a basic home network)

#

alright, thanks

warm junco Jul 7, 2023, 2:10 AM

#

to achieve this, first do ipconfig /all to get how your device is called

#

then, do ipconfig /release "name of the wifi card" you got before

runic estuary Jul 7, 2023, 2:10 AM

#

uhuh

warm junco Jul 7, 2023, 2:10 AM

#

last, ipconfig /renew "name of the wifi card"

runic estuary Jul 7, 2023, 2:10 AM

#

that’s it?

warm junco Jul 7, 2023, 2:10 AM

#

yup

runic estuary Jul 7, 2023, 2:10 AM

#

seems simple.

warm junco Jul 7, 2023, 2:11 AM

#

this will tell your wifi card to "please ask the DHCP server for a new IP"

runic estuary Jul 7, 2023, 2:11 AM

#

okay okay

warm junco Jul 7, 2023, 2:11 AM

#

(obviously do this in command line in admin mode)

runic estuary Jul 7, 2023, 2:11 AM

#

#

alright well

#

i took a pic of those instructions for future cases.

#
