Getting this message "LAN Doesn't have a valid IP address"

But when i click troubleshoot network it resets the network adapter & now problem is solved.
I always have to do this whenever i try to connect to internet.
So what's the permanent solution???

So the problem is that you get this message "LAN Doesn't have a valid IP address" or that you are disconnected?

Did you try setting a manual IP adress like I said?
And specify your default gatewas as 192.168.1.1

Check that your network card is in auto IP and not configured with a static IP.
Check also that your router is not attributing a wrong address to your computer based on your network card's MAC address.

Are you connected using Ethernet ?
Do you have any other computer connected to the same network ?

i'm using Ethernet.
LAN IP Address: 192.168.1.1

DHCP enabled in modem & start IP is from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254

What's with MAC address???
i think it's needed for Wifi not ethernet

If your DHCP range is from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254, how can you have a LAN IP address 192.168.1.1 on your computer?

Set your card to auto choose an IP or set it manually to something like 192.168.1.2 or .3.

For the thing with the MAC addresses, I am referring to MAC filtering in your router, but if you never touched your router it is probably not set so it is fine.

No.
it's still happening.
i have named my network's name "Home".
i turned on modem & if network is shown as Home then internet works.
But when Shown as "Unidentified Network" Internet doesn't work.Then i have to restart[some times 1 restart is not enough]
when network is shown as "unidentifiednetwork" i can't even browse 192.168.1.1 [modem's config page].
modem is working properly as i have tested it with my laptop same time when my pc doesn't have internet.

thinking about buying a new PCIe adapter
