No internet connection

[D-Rocks]

Hey Everyone,

It's been awhile since I have posted. I need some help pointing me in the right direction to fix a problem I am experiencing. Every time I turn on my computer in the morning or reboot it I can't seem to get a internet connection for up to 10 minutes after the computer boots up. My browser launches right away however; I get a "page cannot be displayed". I also notice that my team viewer on PC doesn't get a connection either.

Any ideas?

Made sure your network drivers are up to date from the network card manufacturer's site?

Ugh... I can't believe I forgot to check that. I hates wins 8. What is a good way to tell what drivers version that are installed? It was so easy to find that in previous versions.

The exact same way you checked in Win7 . Through Device manager.

Double click the network device -> Details tab -> should show the driver info.

No problems with Win8 on my end, and I've been running it since release.

Could be pulling up the network last, just like back in XP. Does the network icon come up right away and still give you no page access?
