I have a Windows 10 desktop that will not connect to the Internet either wired Ethernet or wireless.
It previously connected fine through a D-Link DWA-140 USB wireless adapter. I swapped the adapter to an identical machine and it worked fine. I plugged in a known working DWA-140, and it would not connect on this machine. (It seems to connect to the wireless
network, but will not connect to the Internet.) My wireless laptop connected to the Internet fine from the location of the malfunctioning machine so it isn't a signal strength issue.
I then tried the onboard Broadcom Netlink wired Ethernet adapter. It would not connect. (Attached a laptop to the Ethernet cable and verified a good connection to the router.)
I tried winsock reset and ip reset along with
ipconfig /release, /renew, /flushdns, with no results.
I then installed a new PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet adapter. No connection to the Internet.
Device Manager reports all devices are working fine.
The Network Troubleshooter is worthless. It just reports "There may be a problem with the drivers for your device."
If I run ipconfig /all, all I get is the following:
Host Name........................: Reggie-I580
Primary Dns Suffix.........:<blank>
Node Type.........................: Hybrid
IP Routing Enabled.......: No
WINS Proxy Enabled....: No
Has something killed my TCP/IP stack in Windows? If so, how do I repair it?
The computer is a Dell Inspiron 580
Intel Core i3 3.2GHz
4GB RAM
Win 10 x64, v.1803 build 17134.407
An identical system is running fine.
