No Internet Connection for Server
There are occasions where the internet connection for the server is not working, when this happens, do the following:
- Click the Start button
- Go to Powershell and run as administrator
- In the command prompt, do the following:
- Type IPCONFIG and press enter
- You will see a couple of ethernet adapters, note which one does NOT have the subnet of 172.31.7.1-254
- Click Start Menu and type ncpa.cpl and press enter
- Find the ethernet adapter that you noted in step two (Again the one does NOT have the subnet of 172.31.7.1-254)
- Right click the adapter noted above and select disable
- In the command prompt, do the following:
NOTES:
- If you disable the wrong adapter, you will be logged off automatically.
- The only way to fix it at this point is to relaunch the server in AWS Console
- You can make everything on the server stop working very easily with the process, so please make sure you follow the instructions very carefully.
