I am running Windows 7 and I just got this new build. For the past few weeks everything has been running smoothly and now I am having connection issues.
I am using a "Linksys WUSB600N Wireless-N USB Network Adapter with Dual-Band ver. 2" as my adapter (I will be getting a hardline to my router within the next few weeks, but because of college exams and projects I need this computer as soon as possible).
It says that I am connected, and that I have internet access, but I constantly keep getting rejected from websites, saying that it cannot find the server. I tried running steam and a few games as well, but I get the same result all while my computer says its still connected with internet access.
What I have tried so far:
Internet Options> Connections> LAN Settings> check use a proxy server for your LAN
Uninstall any anti-virus software that could be blocking connection (reinstalled after this idea didn't pan out)
In cmd, ipconfig /release /renew /flushdns
Installing Malwarebytes, scanned for any malware and nothing came up.
check router settings for any lapses in DHCP ip distributions (nothing looked wrong)
ISP - router compatibility (all good there)
The only thing I could think of is that I have too many devices connected at the same time. 4 PC's, 4 tablets, and 5 phones. But I tried disconnecting 3 of the phones and 2 of the tablets, and I still have the same problem.
I pinged google, yahoo, and a few other websites with 0 losses, and i pinged 8.8.8.8 with 0 losses. So I am at a complete loss as to what is wrong.
