Internet doesn't work after restarting PC?

[FrostyButt]

This is something new that started to happen this morning. When I turned my PC on, I had no connection to the internet, but my modem was turned on and looked to be normal. I then went to my network device and did the "repair" option and it repaired something then gave me a message along the lines "There was not a valid IP address"

Any idea how to fix?

Are you Windows 10?

Try going to your command line and doing a 'ipconfig /release' and 'ipconfig /renew'.

I have experienced total loss of internet on a couple computers if I touch the multi card reader port. I put a memory card in the slot and the internet does not work. I pull it out and it does not work. I put the sheet of plastic that acts like a guard on the port and the internet works. I learned to just leave that port alone. That's all I know from my experience.

I am facing the same issue, my intenet doesn't work for 2-5 minutes whenever I restart my laptop or even after its sleeping for a while. I am on windows 8.

I ran into this problem before after I installed a new CPU or some other similar tinkering with my PC and fixed it by doing something with reinstalling windows or something similar (Like there was an option that you could do an install to fix things and keep your data in tact)

Sometimes, your ethernet or wifi driver is outdated, you need to update them and check if the problem is gone.
