Hi,

My father-in-law received an old laptop and decided to use it as his main computer. The laptop is in apparenly good conditions, however it didn't have any HDD. Luckily I had a broken laptop with an 320gb HDD with windows 8.1 there, so I plugged it in, and booted up just perfectly.

 

The thing is when connecting to the home's wi-fi it always show "Network Limited" and can't access the Internet, but by Ethernet it works just fine. I tried with my phone's hotspot and worked fine also.

I tried to update the drivers, replace the wi-fi card with the other from the broken laptop (it didn't like that, fans ramped to 100%), reset the ipconfig via commands: 

ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ip config /flushdns

and followed this tutorial: https://www.lifewire.com/resolve-connectivity-errors-in-windows-818232

Nothing worked...

 

Any ideia on what could that be?

Current Rig:

Mobo - MSI B450 Pro-Max VDH | CPU - Ryzen 5 3600 (AMD duh) | GPU - GTX 1660 Super (MSI) | WAM - 2 x 8GB 3200MHz (G.SKILLS Ripjaws) | Storage - 1 x 256GB SSD (Crucial MX500) + 1 x 2TB | HDD 7200RPM (Seagate Barracuda) | PSU - Cooler Master 450W | Case - Cooler Master Q300L | Display - Asus VP248QG (Main) + AOC 24B1W1 | Other Stuff - Bloody B120 (Keyboard) + HP X220 Gaming Mouse + Asus A541UJ (Laptop)
