No matter what I'm doing, my internet settings keep showing an unknown network or an invalid IP address. That means I can't access the internet on my PC. I've tried various methods but nothing works. I also reached out to Google for assistance, but the results remain the same. Could anyone help me resolve this connection problem? I appreciate your support.

We have a new computer.
This is your first time connecting to this network.
What’s unique here is different from what we’re used to, but some things remain the same.
It worked at first but then stopped functioning.

I own a desktop computer... It's about ten years old. The processor is an Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 and the motherboard is Intel G41, no GPU. - Yes, I'm trying to connect to the internet for the first time. - I'm still confused. I installed Windows 10 Pro from Microsoft (downloaded through a mobile app). I've reset and refreshed netsh and ipconfig using the command prompt. I changed the IPv4 settings on the adapter several times, even reverted it to automatic mode, but it's not working. - Actually, this is the first time I've connected to the internet via Ethernet. Before that, I never used a broadband connection. Although I've used a sim modem before. Please help me. And sorry for my poor English. TIA

You have an old computer. You set up Windows 10. The system started and let you log in. Your Query: How is the desktop linked to the network? Is it using Wi-Fi or a RJ45 connector? What is the motherboard model you have? DG41CN, DG41RQ, DG41RQ1, DG41RQI, DG41RQI, DG41TX, DG41TY, DG41WV.

Are you sure your ISP offers a modem or a modem/router? Can other devices link up to the internet through your router using an Ethernet cable? That seems to be the issue—you’re not receiving an IP address from your router. It might be that DHCP isn’t enabled by default, so you’ll need a specific address to connect.

They supply a wireless router, but you're having trouble linking devices to it using an Ethernet cable on your PC.

We’re making progress—can you link the Ethernet cable to another wired device like a computer or game console to see if the ISP’s potato modem/router unit assigns an IP address? This will help confirm whether the issue lies with your ISP’s equipment.

You should try another device connected via that Ethernet cable, such as a PlayStation, Xbox, or Roku. See if it connects successfully—this will help identify whether the problem lies in your computer settings or the modem/router and cable. Some cables can be damaged during shipping and may not work properly. Updated April 27, 2020 by Blahx
