"Wi-Fi 2" Doesn't have a valid IP Configuration error windows 10
Hello,
As the title states my wireless network adapter whenever it connects to my WI-FI network, it is not able to connect to the internet and doesn't seem to have a valid ip configuration, I have done the following things to try and fix the problem with no luck in being able to fix the problem as of yet:

Fixes tried:
-Uninstalling Realtek Pci-E family controller
-restarting the computer
-reinstalling the realtek family controller driver
-running command prompt administrator with the following commands:
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /renew

-resetting the computer to a restore point before the issue happened
-forgetting my wireless network
-manually assigning IPv4 Address
-manually assigning dhcp address
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All above attempts have been tried and failed no matter how many times I have tried to restart the computer, etc.

I am posting here to hope that someone will help me get this fixed.

Have you tried power cycling the router? Most likely the DHCP server is not working. Restarting the router should fix this.

What is the output from "ipconfig /all"?

I have tried to restart the router as well and it still puts out the same error in troubleshootr when connected

the results of ipconfig /all usually present me with an ip address and a link-local ipv6 address, the dhcp server is shown as a default one

but I will try to power-cycle my router

sounds like that wifi is not configured correctly
using another connection log into the router and check its settings

Connection log? How do I do that? Also, I have talked to my internet provider and they are sending a tech out to check the router and line.

use its lan connection, and log into the router

its ip is the dhcp/dns server from ipconfig /all

Make sure Win10 Network is set to Private, not Public

I dont have a cable long enough to be able to run it to my computer and my house doesnt exactly have a good path where I could run the cable to my room where my computer is and avoid anyone falling over.

then hold the reset button on the router for 30sec
or 30/30/30 it to force it to factory defaults

Seriously? ISPs can do that all from their "arm chair"

How far is the PC from the Router?
Interference can cause such issues
have you tried this simple "ipconfig release" command ?

yup, my bad.

try to do the ipconfig thingy using a pc connected to the router via LAN cable. afterwards, use the wifi adapter and see if the problem is resolved.
