Well I'm on Windows 8 and my computer has been running fine until yesterday. Randomly at around 8:00, my internet shut itself and it wouldn't work. I tried resetting the router and such but nothing worked. My computer can connect to the internet connection, but when I boot up Google Chrome it will not work. So I did some troubleshooting and eventually it said this "The remote device or resource won't accept the connection". And it's not only my internet browser that won't work. Other apps like Skype won't connect either. After looking at another thread, I tried resetting the settings on Internet Explorer and changing the Proxy thing but nothing worked. Someone also suggested downloading Hitman, but that was stupid considering I couldn't even connect to the internet. I had Windows Defender scan my computer and it said there was nothing wrong. So I'm not sure what is up. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

What troubleshooting steps have you done?

Have you tried with Ethernet? Does it show you are connected but you have no internet access? Does it have a ! on the wireless symbol?

You can try uninstalling and re-installing driver in device manager.  windows+r type "Devmgmt.msc" w/out quotes expand network adapters and right click on the wireless and uninstall --> reboot the computer and try connecting

You can open up an admin command prompt and try resetting wireless

Netsh int ip reset

Netsh winsock reset

Netsh advfirewall reset

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew

Any additional information will help

Did you try the command prompts that I listed?

And yes I agree try safe mode with networking as well.

Can you also give us the output of ipconfig /all

Open command prompt and type : ipconfig /all

Can you ping? Open up command prompt and type "ping www.bing.com" (without quotes)

Also as mentioned do you have any other anti virus installed?
