Wireless Internet Access, No Ethernet

[Dubzilla72]

Hey all,

 

As title suggests, I am using a wireless router which works quite fine with wireless connected devices, as I'm currently using my laptop to write this post.

 

The issue I'm having is my desktop is currently connected to the router, and has no trouble communicating with other devices on the internal network, yet when I try to access the internet I get nothing.

 

I've checked the router and DHCP has given me an IP address, I've ipconfig'd and seen that I've got a DNS server.

 

I pinged a google domain name AND IP address, both timed out.

I've reset the modem, tried flushing my DNS for the hell of it, release and renewed my IP address, and still nothing.

 

PC Specs:

MOBO: Gigabyte GA-970A-D3P
CPU: AMD FX8320
RAM: 8Gb Kingston DDR3
GPU: Gigabyte GTX760
SSD: Samsung Evo850 250GB
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 3TB
PSU: Corsair VS650
 

Router is a F@ST 4315

Uninstall the wireless adapter from the device manager list and then restart your computer.

I don't have any wireless component on my PC, just the RJ-45 port on the motherboard

Is it the same with a static assigned address ?

Do the same thing but for the Ethernet controller then and/or update your drivers.

Worked man, thanks a heap.

 

Just for knowledge purposes, what was the cause within the driver?

Out of curiosity do you have Win 10?
