Question DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET

[onetimepurpose]

I have a windows 10 and I use Ethernet on it. I had a NETGEAR wifi extender and that's where I plugged it into. I unplugged it on accident when I bumped it, and when I plugged it back in, I started getting problems. Every SINGLE time I try to access a website, it gives me this error: DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET. I've googled so many different websites. I've tried changing my DNS server to Googles DNS server, OpenDNS and Cloud DNS. They would never work. I've tried ipconfig and netsh winstock reset on command prompt, but they wouldn't work either. I don't think it's an internet problem, because I can access the internet on other devices. It's so infuriating! I've tried reseting the router turning it off and back on again, to no avail. I've scoured THE WHOLE internet to try to find a fix and none of them work. I tried pinging google.com and instead of giving me a reply, it sas Request timed out. I really need help on this and urgently. Anyone?

What happens if the PC is plugged directly into the primary router with an ethernet cable ?

Sounds like you damaged your dongle. What have you done to rule out broken hardware?

I haven't tried that, the computer is too far away. It's upstairs while the router is in the basement.

Because I've tried it with different Ethernet cables and the result is the same.

I would recommend carryiing it to the router to test.
