I just recently built my pc, I installed all of the windows drivers, mobo drivers, and gpu drivers, and my pc won't connect to the Internet. I have installed a network driver by Intel which came with my mobo drivers, but when I try to connect to the Internet it won't let me. I am connected through Ethernet, and the symbol has the yellow triangle beside it, and I have no clue what to do.

That's not an issue, you will be using IPV4 anyway I suspect.

I presume you have other devices connected to the same router which are not having problems? If not test another device to make sure it is not a router issue.

Try temporarily disabling your firewall to see if solves the issue. You may have a setting in your firewall stopping you from connecting properly.

Have you tested the ethernet connection on another pc?
Could be a faulty cable.
Otherwise one thing I would try is to check bios settings and reset to default

I just entered bios, in it it shows my Intel driver that came with the mobo for Internet, in bios it shows the link status in disconnected, and I dont know if I have to enable it or something.

So I installed a driver off the gigabyte website, I have a z97x SLI. I installed the driver now I have the regular 192.168 IPv4 but I still can't connect to the Internet? I could only find one driver off their website and it didn't do the fix?

When I ping it, they get received, but the first time, 25% loss, then50% then 75% and the worst is 75% I keep getting, and I get it a lot, and the best so far is 25% loss

When I go into the network connection details, everything is there except for IPv4 wins server, and IPv6 default gateway, and IPv6 DNS server if that helps any.

IPv6 connectivity has NO network access
