How to fix "Ethernet doesn't have a valid IP configuration" error

How to fix "Ethernet doesn't have a valid IP configuration" error



Restart your modem and router

Sometimes, the issue can be due to a temporary glitch in your network hardware. So, try unplugging your modem and router from the power source for about 30 seconds, then plug them back in and wait for them to fully reboot.


Reset your TCP/IP stack

Your TCP/IP stack is a set of protocols that manage your internet connection. Sometimes, the TCP/IP stack can become corrupted, leading to the "Ethernet doesn't have a valid IP configuration" error. You can reset your TCP/IP stack by opening the Command Prompt (search for "cmd" in the Start menu), then typing the following commands one at a time and pressing Enter after each one: "netsh winsock reset" and "netsh int ip reset".


Disable and re-enable your Ethernet connection 

Sometimes, disabling and re-enabling your Ethernet connection can resolve the issue. To do this, go to your Network and Sharing Center, click on "Change adapter settings," right-click on your Ethernet connection, and select "Disable." Wait a few seconds, then right-click on it again and select "Enable."


Renew your IP address

Sometimes, your computer may not be able to obtain a valid IP address from your router. You can try renewing your IP address by opening the Command Prompt and typing the following command: "ipconfig /renew".


Set a static IP address

If the above steps don't work, you can try setting a static IP address for your computer. To do this, go to your Network and Sharing Center, click on "Change adapter settings," right-click on your Ethernet connection, select "Properties," click on "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)," and then click "Properties" again. From there, select "Use the following IP address" and enter a static IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway that are appropriate for your network.


By following these steps, you should be able to fix the "Ethernet doesn't have a valid IP configuration" error and regain access to the internet on your computer.
