Hey everyone, I'm experiencing some network issues with my PC. It only connects through LAN, and everything was working perfectly fine last night. But today, when I powered it on, there's no internet connection at all. I've checked the LAN wires and made sure they're securely connected, even tried reseating them in both my PC and router. Other devices are connected to WiFi without any problem. I even used a brand new LAN cable straight out of the box, but that didn't solve the issue either. I'm really stuck here, any advice would be great!

Is your desktop showing 'no internet access' for the Ethernet connection? That could indicate issues with your connection settings or the network adapter itself. Trying to update your network drivers is a good start, but sometimes they may not need to change.
Have you thought about cleaning out the LAN port on your PC? Sometimes dust or debris can cause connectivity issues. Also, since you mentioned updating to Windows 11 24h2, that might adjust something in your network settings that could help. Let me know how it goes!
Thanks! I'm actually running the update right now, so I'll give cleaning the LAN port a shot after that.
No, it actually shows the Ethernet connection is active but says it can't connect. I did check for updates, but it confirmed my drivers are already the newest version.
