My computer updated last night before turning it off. And this morning I was unable to log on to the internet and I got the message "limited or no connectivity" Ive been searching for solutions on my roomates computer all day. Ive restarted the router and everything. Please help
If you have a modem, power it down and turn it on (ie, unplug the power supply and plug it back in while the PC is powered up) Still no connection... Start>>>Run>>> type 'cmd' at the prompt, type 'ipconfig'... If all you see is a bunch of zeroes.zeroes.zeros then at the new prompt type; 'ip release' followed by at the next prompt 'ip renew'. Close the command prompt and try to go online... If still no connectivity, you'll need your roommate to contact His/her ISP (internet service provider) Also the WinSocks may need a reset, but the ISP will walk you through that. Cheers, Weycraze
I tried that, and there is an IP address... Any other suggestions? We are running off a cable modem and ive tried going directly through the modem still nothing. But everyone in the house still works. And ive tried the wireless says the same thing... 'limited or no connectivity' Any other help I would greatly appreciate. THanks
Try just deleting the connection in network connections @ reboot. It should autoreconfigure correctly. Also, make sure your line is still plugged in...and, if you can, steal your roomate's LAN cable just long enough to plug it in to your plugs/modem and see if that fixes the problem.
