I have windows 8 64bit, every time i enter a different network with my laptop, icannot get internet access until i restart my computer. for example: when i get to school from my house, i have to restart to connect to our student wireless. when i leave school and go home, i have to restart to connect to my router. when i leave home and go to my buddy's house, i have to restart to connect to his router.... etc.
Things ive tried to resolve the issue:
windows updates
use a registry cleaner (yes i performed a backup)
ccleaner
defraggler
virus scans
from the cmd prompt:
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew (says this action cannot be performed while the interface has it's media disconnected)
ipconfig /flushdns
Whatever you can help me out with will be greatly appreciated.
