Usually when the issue is completely unknown like this that ends up being the solution but things like flushing DNS, resetting the TCP network stack, and reinstalling the network driver are troubleshooting options if they fail though I don't know anything else to try besides a OS re-install.

 

And yeah there's a lot you can do tinkering with GNU/Linux.

Sh*t well now I don't know what to do

Aaahhhhh

Seems like your cable doesnt even have a link? Are you sure the cable is connected on the other side.

Thats.. really weird then. Windows just doesnt recognise your cable or something. 

 

All i can think of: usb to ethernet dongle https://www.amazon.com/UGREEN-Network-Ethernet-Supports-Nintendo/dp/B00MYTSN18/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=12ARKU9XBX65B&keywords=usb+to+ethernet+adapter+3.0&qid=1579177026&sprefix=usb+to+e%2Caps%2C399&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUFDOFJSRE9PVTY2UkUmZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTAzNDAyNDhLWDZLSUxDVTdDUzImZW5jcnlwdGVkQWRJZD1BMDI4MDE5OTJHRzNLQ0VNMExMQ0Umd2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGYmYWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrUmVkaXJlY3QmZG9Ob3RMb2dDbGljaz10cnVl

 

There might be someone else that has a solution though.

Well I'm wondering why Linux was fine with the hardware but Windows is not.

Windows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Terabyte_272]

I'll see if I can get Ethernet drivers for my mobo

Guess I'll try the latest lan driver 

[Terabyte_272]

Newest lan driver did nothing. Mabey I have to wait for a Windows update I'll go and grab a WiFi connector to see if that works

Why does nothing work ;(

[Terabyte_272]

In my bios there is this and the rj45 lights on the Mobo and router are working

[mtz_federico]

Honestly if you don't play too many games just switch to linux, I use Pop OS.

 

btw cool psu cable

Those are trash. Better to get a PCI-E network adapter. You find some for $30.

Mabey it's time to upgrade? A new Mobo should fix the issue

You could also do that or use a PCIE or USB ethernet adapter

[Windows7ge]

I have to admit I've not seen this happen before. I can't even guess what the real problem is now but yeah try a AIC NIC or USB NIC (I'd opt for PCI_e before trying USB).

[OGizmo]

is your pc allowing you to obtain a ip address through DHCP at all? 

 

possibly try a static ip address to see if  that would even connect to the internet

 

[The_Geek]

Few  things you can do if not done already:

Do the netsh commands and reset the DNS/DHCP./ipstack/etc.

Disable IPv6 on NIC and router

Make the NIC IP static

Make sure that on the router side you do not have assigned/reserved IP

Time to pull out the MB CD for drivers, try that and not windows drivers for the NIC.

 

One thing I did not see, when did this issue start?

Any events after which you found this?, like a thunder storm, a physical move of the PC and things like that.

 

 

And Dude... all the pics you have are for Win7 and NOT win10 drivers...Nothing else may work other than Win 10 drivers.

Okay I have done everything to the Mobo cd which I don't have being that it's second hand. This started after windows updated from the 14-15th and yes those drivers say windows 7 it's a Mobo from 2010 (X58) windows 10 drivers don't exist. Its been working with windows 10 for a good while now.

Maybe it has something to do with support ending for Windows 7. The drivers might need something that was removed when windows 7 support ended
