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?

    ...

    Here is what I found though it does appear to be a timing problem with the Network Adaptor not finding the connection that is causing it, if after resuming or a Restart and it comes up with No Internet, disabling the adaptor and waiting approx 30-40 seconds then re-enabling it, it finds the connection, there is the odd occasion I have to use the Diagnose option and Restart the Adaptor to get it to work.

    I've read this also from another user, so I decided to retry and actually this works, it's not necessary reboot completely pc, but could to not work immediatly at the first attempt, could be necessary retry more times and however 30 seconds are too much. It Works also restarting network adapter after 10 seconds.

    Agreed, trouble is it is not constant, that's why I suggested 30-40, I have now set up a Command Prompt batch file to do this with a shortcut to make the batch file run as Administrator, much easier.

    netsh interface set interface “Ethernet” disable

    TIMEOUT /T 30 /NOBREAK

    netsh interface set interface “Ethernet” enable

    Check what your interface is called in " "

    I believe people have been misguided with the amount of fat in this thread. The solution to this fix is by simply removing the winhttpautoproxysvc service from dependency.

    HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WcmSvc

    In the root of the key, look for value DependOnService.

    Edit it.

    Remove WinHTTPAutoProxySvc

    Save.

    Start Windows Connection Manager service. Start WLAN AutoConfig service.

    Then location services complains about being off. Go into Settings, Location. Turn OFF the notifications about location services being off.

    It might be a solution on your machine, doesn't mean it's right for everyone else. None of the things have completely fixed my problem, although some have made it more bearable in that it only cannot find my Internet sometimes on coming out of sleep, and more likely when restarting Win 11.

    So I had wonky network issues with windows 11 multiple times , most recently it was telling me on a hardwired staic IP system that I was not connected to a network, but had internet cappabillites. I could go to the "network" and it would say not connected to network , but then show me my internal network devices. it would also not give me the option for public / private settings, as it thought I was not connected. LONG STORY SHORT, I found if you configure network setting in Win 11 from the new = SETTINGS / NETWORK & INTERNET page. THEY will most likely have issues , at least in the last couple builds. THE FIX, was to go to the old settings "control panel" / network & sharing / change adapter settings !!! And config your settings there ! fixes many network issues ! SEEMS MICROSOFT , has not sufficiently stopped using the old settings or successfully rolled them over to the new. hope this helps. I spent weeks trying to fix this and turns out it was simple THANKS MICROSOFT
