I had to upgrade my router today from my provider. Ends up I cannot use it the tech is coming in a day or two. My daughter has the as router upstairs that my wife links to with her Windows 7 Machine.
When I try to do it with my windows 8.1 machine it can't find the DNS server. I have run all the tests and it says everything is fine but the DNS.
I have compared my computers settings to my wifes and they are identical. IP and DNS are chosen automatically.
I am running an Acer Aspire E1-571.
The other thing is we just came back from holidays and my Acer was connecting to any and all wireless routers without an issue.
Let me know any information you need or things you would like me to try.
Thanks!
Rob
