Hi! I have trouble with my wireless connection.
When i troubleshoot, i get the message: "Wi-Fi doesnt have a valid IP configuration"
I've tried to connect to other networks without any luck. I know for certain that there is no problem with the wireless network, because i have connected to it via other computeres/smartphones, but with my own
computer i just get limited access, and no internet access.
A few days ago i might have deleted some drivers while searching for virus on my computer. Im not sure about this, but it seems like the only explanation. My wireless stopped working just after.


My ISP is Telenor - a Norwegian company.
Broadband connection is DSL, and Modem model is: ZyXEL P8702N v2
My virus/malware programs are: Windows Defender and Malwarebyte Anti-Malware
I use Windows 10 on a MSI GT72 2QD
I use a Killer Wireless-n/a/ac 1525 Wireless Network adapter.

I hope you can help :)

It appears your device is trying to connect directly to the Internet instead of through your wireless router. Your IP address should probably be something like 192.168.1.4, instead, as seen in your screenshot, 169.254.102.96. It also does not show a default gateway and that should be the IP of your DSL router.

BTW, searching for your modem device shows no results. Are you sure of the model number?

Try renewing your IP and flushing your DNS information: IP Release, Renew, and Flush DNS (click on Windows, then select your version).
 
Thank you very much for the quick answers! I managed to solve the problem by following the link Tekno Venus posted. I typed "netsh interface ipv4 install" in the command prompt, and that solved the problem :) Again, thank you!
