Unidentified Network

J

John1870

I woke up this morning and my laptop is having trouble connecting to the internet.. However, internet worked on other laptops and devices, so it must be the laptpo's problems. I looked up the problem and I eventually get to a point where I figure out I need a new ip. After typing 'ipconfig/renew', it says:

Windows IP Configuration

No operation can be performed on Wireless Network Connection 2 while it has its
media disconnected.
An error occurred while renewing interface Wireless Network Connection : The sup
port for the specified socket type does not exist in this address family.

No operation can be performed on Bluetooth Network Connection while it has its m
edia disconnected.
No operation can be performed on Local Area Connection while it has its media di
sconnected.

I don't know what to do now=/ Please help!

Wireless? Your laptop isn't getting an IP address is the cause of your issues. Find out of the router has enough allocation.
 
Most of the problem has gone from restart , you should try it ,another one you will have to restart the router if available

Your WiFi adapter did not get a reply from the router for the DHCP data.

Delete the WiFi connection and recreate it.
When you see the SSID for your router again, click to connect
and give it your password
 
I tired turning off the modem for at least 10 seconds, resetting it, restarting my computer, but none of the above worked. I kept stucking on limited connectivity ( icon=signal bar with the yellow triangle), or no internet access (icon=the normal working signal bar).

And I tried deleting the WiFi connection and connect it again when I see it, but no avail=/.
 
Get connected best as you can and then use Network & Sharing Center to investigate the adapter:

on the left, click change adapter settings
click on the wifi adaptor you're using
click on the Properties button at the bottom left
click on the IP V4 (tcp/ipv4) and then the properties
(1)avoid both USE THE FOLLOWING and (*) the OBTAIN choices
(2)click Advanced and make sure DHCP is enabled

now click the Alternative Configuration TAB and
(3) (*) Automatic private IP address

click ok to close and then the close button itself

Q? was there anything from (1,2,3) above that was visible before you made these choices?
 
(1) The option for Internet Protocol Version 4 Properties are on 'obtain an IP address automatically' for top and bottom when I first opened it.
(2)DHCP is enabled when I first opened it
(3)It's on Automatic Private IP address when I first opened it.

They are all chose when I first opened. Thanks for the reply^.^
 
I don't know if this helps, but sometimes the signal bar says internet access and when I tried to use the internet, the signal icon go back to limited connectivity icon(with a yellow triangle).
 
Here's the new update on ipconfig/all

My internet, besides running slower than before, is fine now. I removed the connection and reconnect it again after I reset my router. Seems like combination of system restore then reset the router did the trick. Thank you all for the help=D.
