Wireless Adapter Error

[Patryk_7]

Hello,
I have a Wireless Adapter N since my router and internet connection is N. I was playing around in the Net Work and Sharing center and I think I broke something. Now I can only view website like YouTube and Google on it, but I can't surf the web because I'm only connected to IPv6. I unplugged the adapter and plug in another Wireless N Adapter and everything works good.

How I can reset the Wireless Adapter that only connects to IPv6. I tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it again. My internet protocol settings are both on automatic and setting it to manual doesn't do anything.

Usually when you hook up a network adapter, it connects via IPv4. The connection of IPv6 is usually used for more advanced setups, which it sounds to me like you do not have.

To fix this, go into the Network and Sharing Center and go into the adapter properties, you should see a box that looks like this

Uncheck IPv6 and make sure IPv4 is checked and there are no custom entries in it.

I did and it still doesn't allow me to use the internet except YouTube and like Facebook. I plugged it into a laptop and still the same thing.

Your laptop is able to browse the internet correctly while on its own wireless?

When you plug this device in, you see the wireless networks and everything? Does the status say you're connected? Limited but no connectivity?
