Windows 10: my computer has issues connecting to online games or staying connected to the internet

when ever i try to play games that are online it disconnects me from the server but the game will stay up and run just fine. for example i play war thunder and the game loads up just fine but as soon as i get into a battle the packet loss sky rockets and then disconnects me out of that game. to fix this issue i have tried many things in the command prompt and none of that worked along with other thing but the only thing that worked was factory resetting my computer, but then a day later the same issue is back

Connecting computer with no internet connection to network printer


@dk1971

1. Open Admin command and type: ipconfig
   
   
   
2. Win+X->Control Panel->Netwok and Sharing Center
   Follow the screen shot. This should disable internet access from this PC but allows access to local device(s)
   NOTE: Use the IP & Subnet Mask from step 1. Leave Default gateway & DNS Server blank
   
   
   

 

Internet Connectivity Issues

So heres the deal. My brother who is behind the opposite wall of me is having internet issues. The router is here in my room and his internet is plugged into the Linksys E2000 via a wire going from it to an ethernet wall socket going to his room and into his computer.

He has been having iffy internet for the past 2 days. Fixed it yesterday by rebooting now the problem has resurfaced.

What we have tried:

• Testing the ethernet cables with a tester. Passed
• Tested onboard ethernet with known working cable (computer hooked up using my connections in my room) Passed
• Checked to make sure there was no static IP address in IPv4 settings. Passed
• Made sure the Network Connection wasnt full on disabled. Passed
• Swapped the cable leading from the router to the wall outlet in my room. Passed and worked for a few minutes.

With regards to that last bullet point, the computer is no longer getting internet again despite working for a few minutes. Testing the new cable again, tells us that pins 1 and 2 are "open". That is the second cable in a row that the tester is spitting this message out on.

Any ideas guys? Im out of them.

 

Computer says not connected to Internet even after connected to Internet

Hi Mark,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that applications show that you are not connected to Internet. I’ll certainly help you with this issue.



However, please let us know:

• How is the computer connected to Internet i.e. Ethernet or Wi-Fi?
  
• Are you aware of any changes made on the computer prior to this issue?
  
• Which build version of Windows 10 is installed on the computer? To check type:
  winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
  Enter.
  

I would suggest you to try changing the network connection i.e. if the computer is connected to Internet through Wi-Fi, try using Ethernet and check if that helps.

Let us know how it goes.
