First of all, I appreciate your time and please bear with me.
I just bought a new laptop with Windows 8.1 and have an issue with wired connection.
I don't have a router so I couldn't test the wireless connection but the public WiFi seems to be working ok with the device.
After some search, I noticed that there were threads with similar issues but I still couldn't resolve the problem.
So currently, when I connect the Ethernet to my old laptop (Windows 7), it works fine.
However, when I plug it on the new laptop, it shows : "Unidentified network", "Limited" and cannot connect to the internet.
I updated the Windows after I got the laptop and rebooted the laptop and the internet connection.
I also did attached ipconfig texts/img files on both the older laptop (while plugged) and the new laptop (while plugged)
as well as the current network settings on both devices.
Please let me know, what else I should try.
New laptop model: Dell Inspiron 15
Old laptop model: Lenovo V570
