2024-03-02T23:55:23+00:00 I fixed mine recently by turning off the laptop then UNPLUGGING from the charger cord as well for 10 minutes. (power cycle it was called)
I had the issue and neither restarting, reinstalling internet drivers, checking for updates worked (but i did try them beforehand so that might have did something)
After pinning down the error, of the internet driver AFTER checking for updates, there was an error code 10 which prompted the power cycle solution

I fixed mine by using 'recovery' options to go back a few days (see previous reply). Other people have tried a Hard Reset; https://www.reddit.com/r/ZephyrusG14/comments/12ho5mc/wont_connect_to_internet/
Some fixes work for some but not others.
Cheers,
Gordon N.

But to be clear: MERELY pressing restart didn't lead to a solution; I shut down, waited probably less than a minute, and started up.
