On a laptop whenever trying to use wireless or wired internet in the task bar it says "limited connectivity" and the internet cannot be accessed. If I right click on the icon and select "trouble shoot" it scans for errors and finds "DHCP is not enable, click fix to try to fix these problems as administrator". Then the internet is accessible. How can I fix the problem so I can use the internet right when I turn on the computer?
I'm running Windows 7 on an HP laptop with a built in wireless adapter.
I have the SAME problem with Win7 and 8, so I'm excited to see some of the answers. – MarcusJ – 2013-04-02T03:01:20.930
connect wirelessly, and open a cmd prompt and type "ipconfig /all" and paste the results in your post. THen connected with the wired and do the same... posting the results here. – Logman – 2013-04-02T03:04:46.673
quick fix maybe, try turning off and unplugging the router/modem. Disconnect your computer from the router/switch/modem too. WAit a 30 seconds or more. Then plug everything back on, then turn ON the modem, then router, then switch and computer – Logman – 2013-04-02T03:08:54.610
@MarcusJ if you feel like it up vote the question so it gets more attention – Celeritas – 2013-04-02T04:11:07.817
@Logman I will post "ipconfig /all" asap. By the way, I've tried connecting to totally different networks and the problem is still the same so I don't think it's a problem with the router. – Celeritas – 2013-04-02T04:12:07.760
