Good evening
So I have been using wifi for a while now but have recently had a cat6 drop added to my house so I can run cable to my router. When I plug the ethernet into the router, the PC detects my router, it even shows its name and mac address; however I get no internet connection. My xbox works just fine if I do the same thing. When I went to troubleshoot, it will run through the process and solve itself by finding the network and connecting to it. within a second or 2 it will then go back to saying no network detected after sending a few packets. If I look at the details, it does indeed say packets were sent up and down, but its only for a brief moment.
It is almost as if something is blocking my PC from connecting to the internet since it only does this to my PC
for my network I have:
Spectrum Modem > Nighthawk RAX43 > CAT6 through wall to PC. my internet is 1gig down and 40mbps up
I have tried plugging into the modem directly as well and it doesn't even see a network at all so that was worse.
I am not sure how to open up a gateway or whatever if that is the problem.
Edit: when I reboot it says under the network icon "internet access" for a split second before reverting to no connection. Also my proxy setting is off
