the last thing I could think about is to update your drivers, and maybe softreset your router. if that doesn't work. check the port on your router and switch a bit

Ive done the windows network reset[Failed],also uninstalled the drivers myself and rebooted so windows can reinstall them itself[Failed],Command prompt Netsh winsock reset and Netsh int IP reset[Failed]. What ever is the next step Im recording it weither it works or not like the rest because this is a good flow chart for someone else with a similar issue to have.

Do a factory reset on the modem and reboot your computer at the same time with the ethernet cable unplugged, then plug it back in once everything has rebooted and you've confirmed internet works on other devices.

What do you mean by "Factory Reset" the potato[modem] ?

A factory reset or hard reset puts the modem back to default factory settings. This can clear out residual data that may be causing it to not properly assign an IP to your computer, but will also reset any customization you may have done to the wireless network names or passwords to the factory defaults. If you're unsure how to do this, consult your ISP's support website or call their support line for more information.
