Problem- Ethernet doesn't have valid ip configuration

Fri Jan 10, 2020 9:08 am

Hi,
I've getting an error for my ethernet connection recently. I'm using an ethernet cord to connect to my internet and it's worked well before. My networking knowledge is quite sketchy and I feel like I've tried everything, so can someone please help me?
Any thoughts would be appreciated!

If the cable isn't damaged and you are plugging the cable into the proper jack of the wireless router, it should just work.
 
just brew it!

Maybe DHCP got disabled (in either the router or your PC's network configuration).
Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.
