Unable to connect to internet after installing Windows 7 (no internet what-so-ever)
Ok I have no internet at all. My computer tells me I am connected to the internet but when I try to open my browser (I’ve tried IE and Firefox) it tells me «network timeout» on firefox and «Internet explorer cannot display the webpage» in IE.
I updated from Vista to Windows 7 Premium (32 bit).
After I was done it wasn’t connecting. I restarted the computer and it seemed to be working just fine, then it just stops working. The only thing I did between the time it was working and the time it wasn’t was uninstall Java. I didn’t know if this could be the problem so I did a system restore already to go back to the point before I had uninstalled it, but still no web access.
My main problem is that the computer is telling me I am connected to the network and have internet access but when I try to get on the internet it says that my connection has failed.
Also I know it isn’t my internet provider because I am posting this question from my laptop connected to the same internet provider (only wireless) as my Desktop, also I have another Desktop in the house that is connected to the same internet provider (non wireless) that gets internet just fine. so the problem has to be with the computer, and the only major thing that has changed is installing 7.
Someone please help. I really don’t want to have to uninstall Windows 7 because it took a while to install to begin with. but if i have to I shall

Go over these steps and tell us where the breaking point is.
Check the Device Manager for valid Wireless card entry.
If there is No valid entry, delete any Bogus Entry, and re-install the Wireless card’s Drivers.
Check the Network connections to make sure that you have a Wireless Network Connection Icon/Entry, and that the Properties of the Icon (right click on the Icon) are correctly configured with TCP/IPv4 protocol in the Network Connections Properties.
Make sure that if there is a vendor’s Wireless Utility the utility is Not Running together with the Windows native Wireless utility.
Make sure that No Firewall is preventing/blocking the Wireless components to get to the Network.
Working TCP/IP stack should look this way.
Right click on the Wire card Network Connection, choose Status, Details, and see if it got an IP and the rest of the settings.
Description is the card manufacturing data.
Physical address is the card’s MAC number.
The xx should be a number from 0 to 255 (all xx same number).
yy should be from 0 to 255
zz should be from 0 to 255 (all zz the same number.
The lease date should be valid to the current time.
*Note 1. IP that starts with 169.xxx.xxx.xxx is not valid functional IP.
*Note 2. There might be an IPv6 entries too. However, they are not functional for Internet traffic or LAN. They are needed for Win 7 special HomeGroup configuration.
If everything above is OK you have to be able to connect to the Router.
A Window that says Connected does not means that your are really connected.
Connecting to the Router means that you can enter the Router’s core IP into an address bar of a browse, be able to connect, see, and configure the Router’s menus.
If it does not connecting to the Router log from any computer that can connect to Wireless Router with a Wire, disable the Wireless Security, (make sure that the Wireless broadcast SSID) is On, and try to connect with No Wireless security.
I really checked and configured every thing and it does Not work.
Software Firewall application that is Not configured to allow local traffic (between the computer and the Router is a possible issue too.
some 3rd party Software Firewalls keep blocking aspects of Local Traffic even it they are turned Off (disabled). If possible configure the Firewall correctly, or totally uninstall it to allow clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled or disables, make sure that Windows native Firewall is On .

Run a System Scan to discover potential errors
Click Start Scan to find Windows issues.
Click Repair All to fix issues with Patented Technologies.
But since you can’t connect to the internet, you won’t be able to update your Network adapter the old-fashioned way, through the Device Manager.
So, use another computer, go to your Network adapter or motherboard manufacturer’s website, and download the latest drivers for your Network adapter.
After that, manually install drivers on your computer, and you should be good. If you have any questions, just check our article about updating old drivers in Windows 10.
If you don’t have enough time or you simply want to get over with this error by updating your drivers, we recommend you to download Tweakbit’s Driver Updater tool.

How to get back online after a Windows 10 update breaks your internet access
Source: Windows Central
Although Windows 10 updates are important to patch security vulnerabilities and improve the system performance, it is a known fact that quality and feature updates can introduce unintended problems.
Typically, one of the most common issues after installing an update is related to network connectivity. For instance, slow speeds, unreliable or complete loss of connectivity using a wireless or wired connection resulting in problems connecting to the internet and network resources, such as shared printers and folders.
Regardless of the reason, when a device cannot connect to the local network or internet, after a recent update of Windows 10, there are many ways that Microsoft recommends to fix the issue.
In this Windows 10 guide, we will walk you through several ways to resolve common network connection problems after installing an update on your device.
How to fix common network problems after update on Windows 10
If a quality update breaks the network connection, you can follow some basic troubleshooting steps to resolve the problem quickly.
Reboot computer
Although it might be obvious, it’s not for everyone. Typically, a simple reboot can fix most common problems, including problems connecting to the network and the internet.
To restart a device, use these steps:
- Open Start.
- Click the Power option.
Select the Restart option.
Source: Windows Central
Once you complete the steps, open the web browser and confirm the internet is working, loading a website upon restart.
If the network icon in the notification area shows an active connection, but you cannot open a particular website, try to load a different site as the problem could be with the website. You can also try using a different browser to confirm the problem is not the application.
Confirm network settings
The next step involves using command lines to confirm the problem is not something happening between the device and the router.
To check if the Windows 10 network configuration is working, use these steps:
- Open Start.
- Search for Command Prompt and click the top result to open the console.
Type the following command to find out the IP address of the router and press Enter:
Source: Windows Central
Confirm the «Default Gateway» address that should be the address of the local router.
Quick tip: In home networks, most routers use the 192.169.1.1 or 192.168.2.1 address. However, depending on the configuration or Internet Service Provider (ISP), the address might be different.
Type the following command to determine if the router is reachable and press Enter:
This example tests the connection between the computer to the router with the 192.168.1.1 address:
In the command, remember to change the 192.168.1.1 for the router’s IP address.
Source: Windows Central
Quick tip: You can also use the ping 127.0.0.1 command to test if the networking stack is installed correctly and working on the computer.
After you complete the steps, if the «Packets» field returned with «4» successful replies, the router’s connection is working, indicating that the problem could lie in the connection between the router and ISP. Or it could be the case that the ISP is currently experiencing issues.
If you can access the internet from your phone or another computer connected to the same network, then the problem could be the device in question.
Enable Wi-Fi interface
If there is no connection to the internet, the wireless interface may not be enabled.
To check and enable a Wi-Fi interface, use these steps:
- Open Settings.
- Click on Network & Internet.
- Click on Wi-Fi.
Turn on the Wi-Fi toggle switch.
Source: Windows Central
Alternatively, you can also click the «Not connected» network icon from the taskbar notification area and click the Wi-Fi button.
If there is a physical button in the device, make sure to turn it on to enable the interface.
Reconnect Wi-Fi connection
On laptops, the problem could be the wireless adapter or signal, which you might be able to resolve by disconnecting and reconnecting to the network.
To reconnect to a Wi-Fi network, use these steps:
- Open Settings.
- Click on Network & Internet.
Click on Wi-Fi.
Quick tip: If the wireless section is missing, Windows 10 can no longer detect the network adapter, which could indicate a driver or hardware problem.
Turn on the Wi-Fi toggle switch.
Source: Windows Central
Click the Connect button.
Source: Windows Central
Quick tip: Almost all modern routers allow wireless connections using two band frequencies, including the 2.4GHz and 5GHz, which could appear as separate networks. If you see both networks, you can try connecting with a different frequency to see if that resolves the problem. You can use this guide to learn even more ways to connect to a wireless network.
Once you complete the steps, you should be able to connect to the network and the internet.
You can also create a report of the wireless connection history, which can help diagnose the issue.
Renable network adapter
Sometimes updates can inadvertently change settings without the user’s consent. For example, it could happen that an update may disable the adapter or a specific feature, such as Airplane mode, blocking the connection to the internet.
If the network adapter is not present in the Settings app, it could be a driver problem, or the adapter may be disabled.
To check and enable a network adapter on Windows 10, use these steps:
- Open Settings.
- Click on Network & Internet.
- Click on Status.
Under the «Advanced network settings» section, click the Change adapter options option.
Source: Windows Central
Right-click the adapter and select the Enable option.
Source: Windows Central
After you complete the steps, the Wi-Fi or Ethernet adapter will enable and reconfigure automatically.
Disable Airplane mode
If the «Airplane» mode is enabled, you won’t be able to connect to the network. In the case that the update turned on the feature automatically or you forgot it was enabled, you need to make sure to disable it.
To turn off Airplane mode on Windows 10, use these steps:
- Open Settings.
- Click on Network & Internet.
- Click on Airplane mode.
Turn off the Airplane mode toggle switch.
Source: Windows Central
Alternatively, you can also click the airplane icon in the taskbar and click the Airplane mode button.
Recreate Wi-Fi profile
Every time you connect to a wireless network, the credentials, security, and other settings are stored in a profile. In the case that you are having trouble connecting to a particular network, it could be a problem with the profile.
To fix this problem, you can delete and recreate the profile using these steps:
- Open Settings.
- Click on Network & Internet.
- Click on Wi-Fi.
Under the «Wi-Fi» section, click the Manage known networks option.
Source: Windows Central
Click the Forget button.
Source: Windows Central
Click the Connect button.
Source: Windows Central
After you complete the steps, use the web browser to confirm the internet is working again.
It is also possible to manage a Wi-Fi network with the netsh command-line tool, and in this guide, you can learn more about the process.
Reboot router
If the computer does not seem to be the problem, you can also restart the router, which can sometimes fix many common connectivity problems.
To restart the home router, use these steps:
- Locate the router.
- Unplug the power cord.
- Wait at least 60 seconds.
- Reconnect the power cord.
Once you complete the steps, allow three to five minutes for the router to start and check the connection.
Ping the connection
Opening the web browser and loading a website can confirm whether the internet is working. However, you can also use the ping command tool to check the connection more reliably.
To test the network connection with the ping command, use these steps:
- Open Start.
- Search for Command Prompt and click the top result to open the console.
Type the following command to test the connectivity and press Enter:
Source: Windows Central
Quick tip: We are using «Google.com» as an example, but you can use any online service to test the connection, for instance, «Bing.com.»
Once you complete the steps, if you see four successful replies, it indicates that the internet connection is working.
When using a wired connection, it is wise to change cables and port on the switch to eliminate the possibility of problems with those elements.
In addition to the ping command, Windows 10 offers many other tools to troubleshoot and fix network problems. In this guide, you can learn eight of them.
How to fix connectivity using Network troubleshooter
Windows 10 also includes a troubleshooter tool that you can use to diagnose and repair common networking problems quickly.
To use the network troubleshooter on Windows 10, use these steps:
- Open Settings.
- Click on Update & Security.
- Click on Troubleshoot.
Under the «Recommended troubleshooting» section, click the Additional troubleshooters option.
Source: Windows Central
Click the Run the troubleshooter button.
Source: Windows Central
Select the Troubleshoot my connection to the internet option.
Source: Windows Central
After you complete the steps, the troubleshooter will scan and resolve any connectivity problem.
How to reset network stack using Command Prompt
You can also try resetting the TCP/IP stack and clearing any DNS information on Windows 10 to resolve the network problem.
To reset the network stack with commands, use these steps:
- Open Start.
- Search for Command Prompt, right-click the top result, and select the Run as administrator option.
Type the following command to reset the components that handles network requests and press Enter:
netsh winsock reset

Once you complete the steps, launch the web browser and confirm whether the internet connection is working.
How to reset network adapter using Settings
If you are still dealing with networking problems, Windows 10 has an option to reset all the Wi-Fi and Ethernet network adapters to fix most problems.
To reset all the network adapters on Windows 10, use these steps:
- Open Settings.
- Click on Network & Internet.
- Click on Status.
Under the «Advanced network settings» section, click the Network reset option.
Source: Windows Central
