Note: I already know the solution, however, this problem is recurring randomly and I don't know why.
My DNS has messed up before, and I found a solution to this, but later my wireless connection stopped working with the error, "limited or no connectivity" and assigned the IP 169.254.x.x, which is not within my router's range. I tried many things and eventually found a fix, but this problem still comes back every now and then.
The fix I am using is this:
Code:
netsh winsock reset catalog
netsh int ip reset reset.log
And for DNS:
Code:
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /release
followed by restarting my computer. The connection works for everyone else on the network, and my connection is just fine when on Linux, so it is not a problem with the router or hardware.
After doing that, my connection works just fine, but I'm confused as to why it keeps happening.
