Windows PC can't connect to wifi with DHCP
My work laptop (only Windows device at home) was working normaly until suddenly started to give me the triangle on the wifi symbol indicating no internet connection.
I tried changing many things in...
What is the IP address pool set for on the router? Try setting it from default to 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.200.
Also do a IPCONFIG /release then IPCONFIG /flushdns then IPCONFIG /renew on the PC. Or fully reboot the PC.
Try using the Windows Diagnostic wizard for the connection and see if this will resolve the problem.
THere an IP address conflict on the router?
Setup an IP addresss reseravation ON the router for the Windows PC.
What is the IP address pool set for on the router? Try setting it from default to 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.200.
As I mentioned IP addresss reseravation on the router for the Windows PC did NOT help.
Only setting up static IP address (with the same IP address I tried in the DHCP reservation) on the PC settings helped.
