Student Ethernet Connection Problems, Easter Weekend in peril!

So basically I’m in some Student Accommodation in Germany and they provided me with a wired Ethernet connection via IPv4. Ive followed their directions which are to input:

IP Subnet Gateway DNS1 DNS2

The plan is that I then log onto their website and input my user details. However, putting these values in allows me to connect to “Network 4” with no internet access. It displays the yellow ! on the toolbar. However in the Networking centre it does show me sending and receiving bytes and in the “Network” tab of the Explorer I can see 15 other individual computers, so clearly I’m connected to something.

IpConfig /all

Ethernet adapter Ethernet:

Connection-Specific DNS suffix: Description: Killer e2200 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.30) Physical address: (assumed correct) DHCP enabled: No Auto configuration Enabled: Yes IPv4 Address: 172.31.150.58 (Preferred) Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 172.31.150.254 DNS Servers: 139.18.25.3 139.18.1.2 NetBIOS over Tcpip: Enabled

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I’m typing from an iPhone on 4G with no WiFi or internet of any kind available on my laptop. Thanks!

Edit: Hit a mistype on the IP.

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
