Another "Local area connection doesn't have valid ip configuration" issue
I am currently using the ethernet connection in my university dorm. It has been working fine for a long time, but suddenly started to not working after I boot it up. It reconnected eventually for a while, but now it is not even connecting back. Then the
name of the network still shown up time to time, but now it is just called on unidentified network. It receives the packets and all, but it just does not connect to the internet. I looked at the different solutions, but it does not seem like my case is specifically
same as the ones I saw. Here is what I have in the msconfig/all

So far i've tried
-reconnecting cables
-Disable bonjour
-tried to manually set up the ip (but I don't have any info on the gateway address)
-update it
-reboot it
-etc.
I am stuck. My roomies computer works with the cable so it really seems like something happened in my computer. Hope I can get some help and if you need any more specific information I can give it. Thanks

According to your ipconfig you are connected via WIFI to the internet.
If you want to connect wired turn your WiFI adpter off and reconnect to
the wired network. If that does not help, you will have to contact your
university's sysadmin - your problem most likely is not on your PC.

Hi,
The wireless adapter has IP address but the wired adapter does not. Please disable one of them when you want to connect with the other one.
