So this is how the story goes, I got a new laptop recently and I was installing all the necessities. This is a new laptop and I wanted to see how it would run Valorant.
After the installation, I had to restart my laptop as per the instructions but after that I lost all connection to my Internet
I tried uninstalling Vanguard and Valorant and eventually rebooted my entire laptop (since it’s new it doesn’t really bother me) but there isn’t any fix. The internet works just fine on my other devices and laptop but this particular laptop just isn’t connecting anymore. I’ve also tried the whole DNS flushing thing, but i’m not very well versed with these things.
Does anyone know how to fix this? It’s quite upsetting since it is a new laptop.
By "eventually rebooted my entire laptop, do you mean made a clean OS reinstall? If not, try that
Edit: I usually wouldn’t recommend this, but since you mentioned it’s a new laptop, it shouldn’t hurt too much.
I tried connecting to my campus wifi, and it worked just fine actually, so I think it’s just an issue isolated with my home wifi
On a separate note, I tried pinging google.com through cmd and it had no response, is this indicative of a completely different issue?
