Wi-Fi Connected but No Internet? How to Fix It on Windows

Restart the modem, then the router, then the computer. If other devices work but this PC doesn’t, its network settings are the problem: renew its address, clear its DNS cache, remove leftover VPN or proxy settings, and use Network reset if needed.

  1. Check whether other devices on the same network work

  4. In Command Prompt, run ipconfig /release, ipconfig /renew and ipconfig /flushdns
  5. Turn off any proxy in Settings › Network & internet › Proxy
  6. Use Network reset in Settings › Network & internet › Advanced network settings

When it’s more than a quick fix

If nothing on the network works after restarting, call your internet provider. If only this PC fails after a network reset, it needs a closer look.
