First time that I build a new computer. I have installed windows on my ssd but faced problems so I had to reinstall it on my harddrive instead. The current problem I am facing is that it does not identifies my internet connection. I have tried everything form restarting my router to checking to see if the cables are alright. I even assigned my computer a static Ip address but so far nothing has worked :(.

1st - You should really have Windows installed on your SSD, else, your SSD is pretty much useless. What was the problem that triggered the reinstall?

 

2nd - What do you mean by "it does not identifies my internet connection"? 

 

- do you have a network connection?

- do you have a valid IP?

- can you see your PC from the router's side?

Are you using an ethernet cable or a wifi card?

cmd prompt as admin

netsh

winsock

reset

restart computer

 

plus the internet super screwy right now depending where you live

also try full reset on modem/router(hold reset button for 30seconds)

but have your isp account name and password ready to input into modem after reset
