After updating to the new Windows 11h2, some machines experienced network issues with both cable and Wi-Fi. They connect but don’t get network access and receive an IP address starting with 169…, resulting in no internet or network connection. I updated drivers, firmware, and reset the network settings. The machines’ MAC addresses haven’t changed. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

    Doesn't work. Tried to disable and re enable network adapter without reboot my PC, but Internet remain slow. I must necessarily reboot completely my PC to have again a decent Internet speed connection

    Maybe it works for me because of my connection 1Gb symmetrical Full Fibre, never had a speed problem since getting it.

    If it would not connect, then just click the "Skip" button on that "networking" page, to move on to the next screen.

    Eventually, when Windows is fully installed, you can complete the "network setup".

    So, while using a "hot-spot" on your smart-phone will work, you can finish installing Windows without having any network access during the late steps of the installation process.
