Hello,

I am contacting you because I have been experiencing an issue for a few weeks now, since I got fiber with Orange. There are 2 Macs (a desktop and a laptop) connected via Wi-Fi, plus my PC (Windows 7) connected via Ethernet to the box. I constantly have to turn off and restart my box every time I turn on my PC because it does not detect the box otherwise. When I click on "Troubleshoot" it tells me that it cannot find a valid IP configuration. I have looked on several forums with similar problems and have tried a few manipulations but without success. I prefer to avoid doing anything rash..
I am therefore seeking your help to resolve this issue.

Thank you in advance

Configuration: Windows 7 / Chrome 48.0.2564.116

Hello

Check that your DNS is set to automatic by right-clicking on the network, opening the network center, then clicking on Ethernet or Wi-Fi (the blue text) at the top, then clicking on properties and on IPv4 protocol to ensure everything is set to automatic under general and under alternative configuration.
Best regards

I had already checked before and it had already been done, so there are no changes in that regard.

Hi,
please contact your ISP to request a replacement for the box, if it was working better before.
Is your PC connected directly to the box or through powerline adapters?

and... There you go!

It worked before when I didn't have fiber, it's since I got fiber that I'm actually encountering this problem. My PC is directly connected to the router by an ethernet cable.

re
Your box installation went well up until the message delivered by SMS?

Yes, no apparent issues. I wasn't present during the installation, but everything seemed to have gone well.

In that case, I suggest you call the Orange service at >>3900
the technical support is available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.

Maybe I forgot to mention that the problem only comes from my PC. The two Macs connected via WiFi have no issues and are always connected without needing to turn the box off and on again.

Oh well, that's different. Have you already accessed your box's interface to check if this Ethernet connection is recognized by the equipment?

My bad, I thought I had been precise! Yes, I have already checked and it is indeed recognized as a "wired local network."

So your connection in question is on your PC, check your Ethernet card in your devices, right-click on the Start menu, Device Manager
Click on the top under View and check Show hidden devices
What is the name of your network card and which driver is being used? Right-click on the name of the card and then on Properties.

So in "Network adapters" I see two items:

. Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller
. TAP-Windows Adapter V9

When you talk to me about the driver used, do you mean the current version of the driver?

Yes, the one displayed as the driver
Driver provider - Realtek
Driver date - 04/02/2015

Digital signature - Microsoft Windows

Hi

What kind of Ethernet cable quality do you have?
At least CAT 5e?

It is indeed CAT 5e.

I called Orange customer service and they told me that it could be the firewall blocking the connection. I disabled it but it didn't change anything. They suggested changing the Livebox, but I doubt that's the problem since it works for the other two computers. Otherwise, I only have the option of buying a Wi-Fi card or a USB Wi-Fi adapter...
Any other solutions you think?

What version of Windows is it exactly?

What exact model of Livebox?

Have you tried all 4 ports on the box?

Have you tried both Ethernet ports on the PC?

I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. It's a Livebox Play. I tried all 4 ports on the box with no result. On my PC, I only have one Ethernet port.

In the device manager === network adapter === properties of your network adapter === details === hardware identification number, what do you have?

What is surprising is that sometimes my PC detects the connection, it says "Network 4 Internet Access". I can browse some websites and not others. When I check the details on the sites I can't access, it says "Unable to find the server for ............. because the DNS resolution has failed. This error is often due to a lack of internet connection or incorrect network configuration. It can also be caused by a DNS server that is not responding or by a firewall that prevents Google Chrome from accessing the network."
