Quick background: I recently moved across the country and had to lug my PC with me. When I hooked everything up again, the internet will not connect. I assumed the wi-fi card got busted mid transit, so I used my USB TP link adapter instead. (I had been using recently anyways since the wifi card tended to not work.) Still, no dice. I figured it was a software issue, or something with the motherboard, but I don't really know what to do for that if that is the case. My guess is to get a new wi-fi card but I wanted to get some help before I spent the money on one. Reddit didn't help at all, some dude didn't even believe me and said I shouldn't have moved across the country because it would have been bad for my PC (which we are well past by now).
Yes I've turned it on and off again, re-installed cpu, my wifi works fine with everything else I have. If you have any idea what to do, even if you think it's stupid, please tell me. I'm in an animation program at uni right now and my grades depend on this thing. (Also, I provided a screengrab of the error screen bc reddit guy demanded I did and didn't respond, just in case you wanted it.)
