I'm on a laptop in a college dorm. Until yesterday, I never had any problems. Now the ethernet cable says "no network access" under the Network and Sharing Center. When I plug the cable into my smart TV, however, there is no problem. This obviously means there is a problem with my PC. I've already tried uninstalling the driver and allowing it to reinstall. Please, any help is appreciated.
Connected to WiFi but Ethernet wont work

hows the college network setup??? I went to Texas Tech and if your computer popped up on the IT departments sh*t list then they black listed the MAC address. I.E. bot net, torrent, etc. may have been what happened. especially if your WIFI still works since that card would have a different MAC address. might call and ask them if that happened to you.
try connecting your laptop to a switch with another and pinging it out to see if the Ethernet adapter is fried as well
