Problem with my Ethernet Connection

[PeterOz]

the only thing is the host file has not been reset.
Let’s see what @Malnutrition thinks on that.

[PeterOz]

if you open cmd
ping 127.0.0.1
what happens

ping 127.0.0.1

Ping works! What is 127?

[PeterOz]

127.0.0.1 is local
So you are pinging yourself
which seems to say network software should be ok

[LuciferLilac]

127.0.0.1 is local
So you are pinging yourself
which seems to say network card should be ok

Okay, makes sense!

I haven’t read the entire thread, so apologies if already suggested and tried…

Have you tried another ethernet port on the router/modem if it has more than one?
If connecting to a router, skip that and connect straight to the modem?

In Control Panel > Internet Options > Connections tab > LAN Settings - untick ALL boxes.
While in Control Panel > Network & Sharing Centre > Change adapter settings > double click your ethernet adapter > Properties > untick IPv6 and double double IPv4 and set all to auto.
