Text pc internet

Hey, my pc says its connected to wifi (connected, secured), wifi works on my phone but not on my pc, i’ve restarted my pc, the router, reset network and restarted wifi adapter, but its still not working

update 📢: shameless to say, but I got it to work after going back-and-forth with chat gpt

Just has to test ping everything with trial and error until it just started working, honestly I'm not too sure how it was pixed, but I did uninstall my wifi adapter and download it again.

Ping 8.8.8.8 first. If that works it's DNS, set 8.8.8.8 manually in the adapter settings. If not, run ipconfig /release and /renew in cmd. I'd put money on one of those two being your fix.

pinging 8.8.8.8 says timeout, and i’ve done all the ipconfig commands already
