I unsuccessfully attempted to create a WiFi Hotspot in Windows 10.
In the process somehow or another i mucked up my internet connection. The lappy was getting to the router fine but not beyond that. All other devices were fine. A router re-boot made no difference. I tried all sorts of things to fix including ipconfig /release and /renew.
In the end this article came to my rescue.https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/no-internet-access-fix-windows/
At point 6 in the article I made sure to change settings to Obtain an IP address automatically and Obtain DNS server address automatically.
That sorted it. Sharing in case anyone needs it.
Fixed! Go to the fix.
