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?

    just for reference, in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wcmsvc

    DependOnService" I have only "RpcSs". But let's see if someone else can fix the issue using your solution.

    After some more messing around I think this time I got it.

    The WLAN AutoConfig service has a dependency on Windows Connection Manager.

    Windows Connection Manager has a dependency on the WinHTTP Web Proxy Auto-Discovery Service.

    I went to the registry and removed the dependencies on the WinHTTP Web Proxy Auto-Discovery Service. Rebooted a few times and success.

    I base this upon the 23H2 services NOT having the dependencies on the WinHTTP Web PRoxy Auto-Discovery Service.

    Here is the change I made in the Registry: NOTE THIS IS FROM MEMORY

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wcmsvc

    DependOnService = REG_MULTI_SZ:RpcSs NSI

    I Removed the 3rd Service listed there which should be the WinHTTPAutoProxySvc

    This has seemed to resolve my issues for now.

    to me, the value is in "3" and not working... :(

    complementing, my network adapter is a "Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6E AX 211 160MHz"
    current version "23.60.1.2" and Driver Date "6/3/2024" .... :/

    So For my issue, (at least on one machine, we have 2 right now with the problem) the WinHttpAutoProxySvc was disabled (from install). Made this change to the registry here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinHttpAutoProxySvc"Start"=dword:00000003 rebooted and resolved our issue. Internet back and working without anything else.

    Not sure why this would be the case but it worked, I will try the other system and let you know.

    ***UPDATE***

    Maybe spoke too soon! Not shocked, but when we rebooted that machine again (after the initial reboot and the internet was working on WIFI) the Start DWord in the registry had gone back to 4. And the internet did not work until the registry was changed and rebooted again.

    So not sure what to say now.

    in my case the service WLAN AutoConfig service is running... the strange is if I use another router (Ruccus) or my Xiaomi as WIFI hotspot, everything works well... :/

    In my situation if I connect USB Ethernet works too.
