Hey guys,
I once again find myself with a strange problem and I just cant find the answer. I have windows 10 on a friends 6 month old lenovo 110 laptop. I believe it may of failed a cumulative update but, Basic problem is that I cant connect to the internet. A symptom or cause may be dhcp or dns related. The PC will not connect and grab a dhcp address from any network. I am able to put the network info in manually, and resolve the network, but I still have no network access or connection. It shows connected to the network, but when Pinging my router I get a general failure error. IT shows connected via wifi and ethernet, but pings to anything fail. I cant even get loopback pings to work.
list of things Ive tried.
dnsflush
netsh resets
driver rollbacks, deletes, multiple version installs
tethering with usb from phone to confirm not an adapter hardware problem
chipset updates
bios updates
windows firewall...on, off, restarted, disabled, ....you name it.. i tried it.
every trouble shooter windows 10 has to offer.
and about 30 different guides on google.
I just cant find the problem here. I am starting to think clean install may be my only option but before I get there, Im hoping there is something else I can try.. something lower level. is it possible to completel restore the DNS and DHCP services?
