Please help. After PC started downloading some auto updates, I left it for about 4-5 hours. When I comback, it lost connection to Internet, updates did not finish and I cannot access internet anymore. I can ping localhost but cannot ping outside IP. Tried to flush DNS, tried to release from ipconfig - did not work. PC is connected straight to the modem now. Modem was changed by cable company and I can get to internet from laptop but not from PC. Any help?
