Loss of internet connectivity after upgrading to windows 8.1

Hi, After upgrading to windows 8.1 from windows 8 i am experiencing major problems , loss of internet connectivity for no reason both I.E. and G/CHROME are now taking an age to open there are no virus issues as far as i can see.
I have uninstalled and re-installed windows 8.1 about four times over the past 9 months or so and the same thing happens after all the updates are in it runs like a dream for say 6weeks or so then i get the same faults as described above then i uninstall/ re-install ok for 6 weeks .
I would apprieate any help or advice thanks

Hi @BMATH
Thank you your query.
I understand that after updating to Windows 8.1 about every 6 weeks you loose wireless connectivity for no reason and the web pages are very slow to open. If you uninstall and reinstall Windows 8.1 it works fine again for about the same amount of time. You have done this about 4 times with the same result each time.
Do you know if there is any changes at that time , perhaps an update?
You stated you do not believe you have any viruses. Just to be sure here are two links that will help confirm that.

After updating to Windows 8.1 have you checked for Windows updates?
Have you ran HP Support Assistant ?
Here is a link to Troubleshooting Wireless Network and Internet (Windows 8) that may also help.

No internet connection after upgrade from windows 8 to windows 8.1

I have upgraded my operating system from windows 8 to windows 8.1, I also updated windows 8.1 after the system upgrated. I found there is no access to internet, although I have full wifi signal. I tried to conncet to the router via ethnet cable, but it still has no internet connection. However, I can see other computers at homenet via wifi. I have seen some questions in the Forum regarding wifi failure after upgrating to windows 8.1, and I tried to uninstall all my drivers (LAN and wireless) of network adapter, and re-install the latest drivers from HP website at http://support.hp.com/gb-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Pavilion-Sleekbook-15-b000/5296234/model/5311051#Z7_3054ICK0KGTE30AQO5O3KA30R1(I tried the Ralink ones as I remembered the old drivers are Ralink), but it does not work. Please could you help?

Hi @Koala76 , Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! I have read your post on your HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15-b052ea and Windows 8.1 causing issues for you when trying to connect to the wireless. Try opening Device Manager, clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking Device Manager. In Device Manager, locate the network adapter, and then double-click the device name. Click the Driver tab, and then uninstall everything in the list except the Realtek and the Ralink. Remove any USB devices and Ethernet cables that are connected. Restart the computer. After you restart the computer, please use the HP Support Assistant. The HP Support Assistant has a wireless connectivity troubleshooting tool inside. Here is a screen shot of the Internet and Security tool that will help you diagnose Internet Connectivity. I hope this helps! Thanks.

No Internet connection after upgrade to Win 10 with Dell XPS Fixed

After upgrading from windows 8.1 to 10 on my dell I had no internet connectivity.The answer is that the update reset the driver to default mode. Specifically bandwidth.Go to control panel / device manager / WiFi cardgo to device / properties - Advancedselect bandwidth and change from 20 only to 20/40 auto.

It might help to reset the connection settings on your Mac using these steps one at a time until the problem is resolved, recognizing that, depending on your problem, not all of these steps will make sense:
1) Use the AirPort/Wi-Fi menu bar item to turn AirPort/Wi-Fi off, then on again.
2) Try to select your Wi-Fi network from the AirPort/Wi-Fi menu.
3) In the Network panel of System Preferences delete the AirPort/Wi-Fi item from the left column, then add it back.
4) In the same panel as (3), define a new location and see if you can make that work.
5) In the same panel, select the AirPort/Wi-Fi connection item, click the "Advanced" button, select the "TCP/IP" tab, then click "Renew DHCP Lease". Note that the fix this step implements may be temporary.
6) In the folder /Library/Preferences ( _not_ <yourhomefolder>/Library/Preferences), move the folder SystemConfiguration onto the Desktop, then restart your computer. See if you can now make your AirPort connection work.
These steps may not help, but they'll only take a couple of minutes to try. Before you try these, if you have any special network settings on your Mac for things like DSL credentials, note all your network settings, because the latter steps will destroy them. If you got all the way to the last step, if things don't work any worse than before, you can trash the saved SystemConfiguration folder.

USB device keeps disconnecting/connecting after upgrading to Windows 8.1

I have a device(Pedal for Sim Racing) connected via USB, everything is working fine in Windows 7 and 8 but after upgrading my machine to Windows 8.1 the device keeps disconnecting and connecting for like every 2 seconds. But after I open the Property Sheet
in Game Controllers panel the disconnection issue was gone, if I reconnect the device the issue persist. Other people who have similar device also encounters the same issue after upgrading to windows 8.1. The issue persist with or without the device driver
installed.
Any idea, what might cause this?
Best regards
mark

I'v got this exact same problem with my Win 7 desktop. I've also got pedals and wheel but don't see it as different than all the other USB devices. I'm using a bunch of USB, but no hubs, including 3 external storage hard drives. But the momentary
disconnect appears in all devices as best as i can see..even my long time trouble free head phones..keyboard..and all. Sometimes the sound goes away and if I unplug and replug them the sound comes back, and other times I have to exit and re enter the
game. I also get video crashes ..maybe not related.IDK..and have to restart all, because I've got three black screens in Eyefinity. For years my system was trouble free and its just slowly started getting worse. I've thought it had to do with system "sleep"
etc but long ago went to never sleep max performance etc..Makes no difference. Keep thinking its my hardware or my house wiring etc..But can't seem to solve it. I replaced my Mobo/chip/ram maybe 6 months ago and that appears to have not helped. It seems
to be getting worse. I hate to start replacing parts piece by piece..cost a lot of money and sometimes doesn't help.
When I'm playing a game I can often hear "faint" sound of USB connect disconnect happening with regularity..that little bing/boink sound etc..So it must just be constantly happening...Seems weird. Didn't have anything like this happening years
ago with pretty much the same hardware and same Win7 with the continuing updates etc.
What can be causing this common problem?

Loss of Internet connection after software upgrade

After carrying out a software upgrade last weekend which included iTunes 10.4.1, Remote Desktop 3.5.1 I'm finding that my internet connection stalls and the iMac hangs after unspecified periods of time. Sometimes I can carryout a restart, other times I require a hard reset to get the iMac running again.
All will be fine and then once again Internet will stop working and eventually the iMac will hang again.
I've tried a number of actions to see what's going on, there are no processes hung or taking up huge ammounts of CPU. If I try to refresh the IP address of the Ethernet connection from the router this is possible, but you still can't browse to a page.
I've also tried deleting some of the .plist info from the System Prefs area and having Lion re-build them but that hasn't worked either.
My next thought was a complete re-build of Lion from scratch, but before I start down that road, has anyone any other ideas?
System specs are;
iMac 2.8GHz C2Duo
4GB Ram
Running Lion 10.7.1
Many thanks,
Stuart.

Hi Larry,
If you go to Control Panel -> Network Connections (For Vista and Windows 7: Network and Sharing Center) -> Double click on your Network Adaptor (Vista and 7: Top left hand corner of the Network and Sharing Center, click on 'Change Adaptor Settings' and double click on your adaptor. Click Properties and scroll down to 'Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP /IPv4), click Properties and make sure that 'Obtain an IP Address automatically' and Obtain DNS server address automatically' are ticked. Click Ok, then OK, then finally close. Check to see if you have connectivity. If you don't, go to start, in Run (Or in the search bar) type 'cmd'. Once Command Prompt opens, type 'ipconfig /flushdns'. Close Command Prompt and check again. If you still don't have Internet connectivity, go to Internet explorer and click Tools -> Internet Options (If you have Internet Explorer 7 or 8, press Alt before looking for tools. This will make the bar appear). Go to the Connections Tab and click on 'Lan Settings'. Make sure that you do not have 'Use a proxy server for your LAN' ticked. Also make sure that you have 'Automatically Detect Settings' ticked. Once you have done this, click Ok, Apply and Ok and check again for connectivity. If this didn't resolve your problem please post back

Problems with your internet connection after upgrading to iOS 7.1.2

After upgrading to iOS 7.1.2 on my iPad Retina display does not connect to the internet more. Recognizes the Wi-Fi network but can not connect to the internet. The same thing happened to my wife's iPhone 5s, while my had no problems ...

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Loss of internet connection after removing Norton

i removed the Norton Security package from my Compaq Presario laptop and since then I have lost my internet connection. I can connect wireless to the Home Hub but no access to the net.

Loss of Internet connection after after power "Blackout"

I have a Linksys WRT54GS router connected to Charter.net cable modem.
I do not have a static IP.
This summer we have had several power blackouts. The electricity is gone anywhere from 10 seconds to a lot longer.
When power is connected again, the router is not able to receive an IP address from the Cable modem. Therefore the LAN side of the modem works, but no access to Internet. After a power restart of the Linksys Router I am again connected to the Internet. It seem that the Router boots before the Modem and when asking the Modem for the IP address gets no answer from the slower booting Modem. When I am at home it is an easy problem to solve but when I am in another part of the Country I loose the connection to my Base Computer at home.
?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />
Is there a solution???

what is the firmware version on the router?? try reducing MTU to 1452...let me know if you have any issues will get back to you.
thanks

Apple programs will not recognize Internet connection after Tiger upgrade

In January, I posted the question below. I wanted to update it, but this site has archived it and will not allow responses. In the hope that I may help someone else, I am repeating my question, now that I have the answer.
===============================================
ORIGINAL PROBLEM
Last week, I upgraded from 10.3.9 to Tiger. Ever since then, I have had trouble using Apple's programs that require internet usage: Safari, iTunes, Software Update, etc. All of these programs think I am not connected to the Internet. But I am; I can use Netscape, Internet Explorer, and other non-Apple programs on the web.
Furthermore, it's not consistent. Sometimes Safari will recognize the connection. I'll be using Safari, looking up websites, when suddenly it will quit connecting, giving me the message, "Cannot connect to the server," no matter what server it is, even apple.com (so I have to use Netscape to access my .Mac and this Support screen).
How can I resolve this?
==============================================
The problem was that my Earthlink Access software was setting a proxy on my connection. Netscape & Firefox worked because they ignore any proxies; the Apple programs (plus Shiira and Internet Explorer) didn't connect because they use the proxies.
Why did it sometimes work? Well, if I first used Safari to go to a secure website of my bank, somehow that opened up the connection and then I could continue to use the Internet and Internet based programs like iTunes and widgets. However, if I tried to use an Internet-based program before going to the secure site, then it wouldn't work.
After months of phone calls and e-mails and sending data packets and all such stuff with Apple Care, they finally stumbled upon this answer: Uncheck the proxy box. And that did it. At first I had to uncheck it every time I started up the computer, but now it stays unchecked and I can use my Apple programs with no trouble.
I just wanted to share this with you in case you also had trouble with Internet connections after upgrading to Tiger, because I did see several other people had this same trouble.
Movable flat-screen iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6) 1.25Ghz processor, 256 MB memory (DDR SDRAM)

For the record, could you state each Proxy box you ended up unchecking please? I'll attempt to submit a user tip with credit to you for finding this solution.

ISCSI initiator not connecting after upgradation

HI,

Kindly guide on this.
Thanks in Advance

HI Shaon Shan,
Thanks for the info.
While searching for the file names start with iscsi in c:\windows\system32 folder the file version is 5.2.3790.3825 in working windows 2003 server.
Recently I've downloaded (Not yet installed) iSCSI initiator for Windows 2008 from Microsoft website in that iSCSI initiator file version shown as 6.3.4.1, instead of using inbuilt Microsoft iSCSI initiator in W2K8, shall I try installing the downloaded
version,
because when I checked in Windows 2008 (Upgraded version) the iSCSI file version remains the same as 5.2.3790.3825 which was found in windows 2003.
Post to our previous discussion
While I'm trying to install the new iSCSI initiator for Windows 2008 downloaded from Microsoft website, it shows some error "Setupcould not find the update.inf file needed to update your system" then I've updated my server, but no luck still showing the
same....!!!!

Problems connecting to the internet after Upgrade from windows 8.1 pro

Cant connect to the internet after upgrading to windows 8.1 pro, what can i do to rectify this problem?
Thanks

Hi,
You can also try to install the older version in compatible mode:
Windows 8.1 Wifi showing "limited" or "No Internet Access"
Solution: revert your network adapter driver back to an older version
http://blogs.technet.com/b/dennis_schnell/archive/2013/08/31/windows-8-1-wifi-showing-quot-limitied-quot-or-quot-no-internet-access-quot.aspx
In addition, disable power management on your network driver:
Open Network and Sharing Center.
Click the Change adapter settings link in the upper left of the navigation pane.
Right click the network connection you want to enable/disable power management support on and click Properties .
Click Configure .
On the Power Management tab, clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box.
If the issue still persists, please upload the event log for our research:

Unable to connect to Oracle db v 9.2.0.1.0 after upgrading to Windows 2003

Hello, I am working on a java enterprise application that accesses Oracle DB version 9.2.0.1.0. It was working until I upgraded the operating system from Windows 2000 server to Windows 2003 server enterprise edition. the db connection is lost sometimes when accessing the db for long time so i have to close the session and open a new one. also the batch file (wfjvlsnr.bat) that resides under (Oracle_Home\ora92\wf\admin) can not connect to the db with the user name (owf_mgr) after upgrading to Windows 2003 although it was working on Windows 2000 server....
Could you sujjest any solution for this problem?
Thanks....

Are you talking about upgrading the client operating system? Or the server operating system? The first version of the Oracle database that was supported on Windows 2003 was 9.2.0.3, so if you upgraded the server operating system, you'll need to apply an appropriate database patchset.

After upgrading to Windows 8.1 firefox longer works. I got it to load but screen is either blank or doesn't go to target address

after upgrading to Windows 8.1 from 8 nothing works correctly. Firefox 1st received 'unable to load XPcom' After resetting and uninstalling several times Firefox now loads to either a support screen or blank screen. It accepts address input but doesn't execute to target. So far I have been unable to roll back upgrade.
Although IE11 works, it doesn't work correctly.

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
See:
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Server+not+found
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Firewalls
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/fix-problems-connecting-websites-after-updating
If you keep having problems then do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 24: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

SSL Error after upgrading to Windows 8.1

After upgrade my Windows 8 to Windows 8.1, I got this SSL Error when I tried to go to "https://google.com":
http://i.stack.imgur.com/2kaXO.png
...and this in IE: http://i.stack.imgur.com/7Gxbw.png
I have did some research and tried to change my system time up to date, reset my modem and use wireshark to see if anybody is tracking my network, but none of them seem to be the problem.
Anyone can help me? Thanks a lot...
EDIT: I have checked my browsers and just figure out that every connection from my computer is not able to connect to any SSL connection, for example Yahoo Messenger login. I'm thinking my computer SSL Certificate got serious problem, is
there anyway to "reset" it?

Hi,
For the issue, it can happen for a wide variety of reasons.
I suggest we try the following methods to narrow down the issue.
Method 1.
Clear the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) state:
In Internet Explorer, click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
Click the Content tab, and then click Clear SSL state.
Method 2.
Press Win+X, and then click Command Prompt(Admin).
At the command prompt, type sfc /scannow, and then press ENTER.
Method 3.
Press Win+R, type regedit in the box, and then press ENTER.
Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl
On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click Key.
Type FEATURE_ERROR_PAGE_BYPASS_ZONE_CHECK_FOR_HTTPS_KB950067 to name the new registry subkey, and then press ENTER.
On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
Type iexplore.exe to name the new registry entry, and then press ENTER.
On the Edit menu, click Modify.
Type 1, and then click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.
If the issue persists, I suggest you reinstall the IE to check the result.
Hope these could be helpful.

Networking Issues after Upgrading to Windows 8.1

I have a Windows 8 desktop PC that is working fine with my network. I can browse the Internet fine using all major browsers etc. After upgrading to Windows 8.1 through the Windows Store I noticed that my wired networking was not working correctly.
The status of the network does not change (i.e. it doesn't change to Limited Connectivity) however browsing to sites in Chrome, IE or Firefox doesn't work as well as Windows 8.
IE11 gives me the error "This page can't be displayed, make sure the web address is correct" and other browsers give a similar error. I normally have to refresh 2-3 times to get a new page to load, sometimes even more. Everything works
fine from a laptop connected at the same time so it isn't an network issue with my provider.
I thought this might be a driver issue with the two on-board Marvell wired network adapters. I wasn't able to rollback the driver to older versions I found on the Internet. I then purchased another network card, Intel Desktop gigabit and the
issue still persists with that adapter. I then tried a USB wireless adapter and the issue still persists using wifi with the wired adapters disabled. I tried a new network cable and no luck either. I also tried resetting the IP stack using
the various netsh commands.
After that I thought I might try reset the Windows 8.1 PC, however that didn't work as I didn't have the restore image available as I upgraded from the Windows Store. I then tried installing Windows 8.1 fresh using a ISO with my Windows 8 key using
some of the recent guides that are available. That all worked but it didn't fix the networking issues.
I re-installed Windows 8.0 and the networking is now fixed and back to working normal again. I'd like to try again but I think I will have the same problems. I can't imagine why this would be a driver issue as I tried 3 different network adapters
and two installs of Windows 8.1. Any ideas what would be the cause of the Windows 8.1 issue?

HI,
Since this issue only occurred in the your desktop PC, and many network adapters you tried, failed, thus I think maybe we should focus on the model of your desktop PC, I suggest you update the BIOS and chipset from the manufacture to improve
the performance of win8.1.
Please also test this issue in safe mode with networking.
Please refer to:

The issue occurs in safe mode as well under Windows 8.1. The motherboard is an Asus P5B Premium, however it works on Windows 8. How would I update the chipset when booted into Windows 8.1? In Device Manager it wasn't allowing me to update
the network drivers as they were newer versions already installed.
Edit: I also installed at Intel Chipset Device software dated 8/8/2013 with version 9.4.0.1026 and the issue still occurs. I am also running the latest BIOS that is available.
