I'm hoping you'll be of some help since I've tried every solution I found all over the web and nothing's working.
Yesterday afternoon I had trouble opening google and thought there might be a problen with my network. I restarted the router, but still nothing. Plus, the WiFi works on my phone.
Later it somehow connected, but I wasn't sure what method in particular helped since it happened later after it had been a while since I was trying to fix it.
Later, I lost the connection again and I haven't been able to connect ever since
The laptop I have is Acer Aspire E 15 and I've never had a similar problem.
I've tried changing adapter settings, running troubleshoot, flushing the dns through cmd (admin), but no luck.

Go to command prompt
In the Black Command Box Type: netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt

Hit Enter Key

Restart the computer and try to log in and browse the Internet.

If the problem persists, continue using these steps.
In command prompt

In Black Command Box Type: netsh winsock reset

Hit Enter Key

Restart Computer

Thanks, but I tried. That didn't solve it.

Hi

Can you connect to another hotspot?

No, I've tried two different networks and it still doesn't work. It shows a strong wifi signal and yet nothing

That's weird! You have a signal but no Internet. My solution has never failed.

Are you using a proxy ?

Have you tried resetting your browser to default settings?

Yep. It's not the browser either.
