One of the key points in Windows 11 is network connectivity since, as we know, a high percentage of the things we do today are based on network parameters, it does not matter if we use Wi-Fi or Ethernet networks, the network is essential piece for the system to work, for example, without a network the system cannot be updated and we may be exposed to attacks and threats..
Now, Windows creates a network connection method where it is determined whether the network to be used will be public, private or domain. This will depend on certain configurations and use environments, but an error that has arisen today is the error “It is not possible to connect to this network” and with this the entire communication process between the equipment, the system and the outside world.
There are various reasons for this error and TechnoWikis will teach you various steps to solve it..

Step 2
Now, in Network Adapters, we right click on the driver and select the “Uninstall device” option:
Step 3
The following message will open. We click on “Uninstall” and we will see that the adapter has been uninstalled:
Step 4
Now we will go to the “Action” menu, there we click on “Check for hardware changes”:

6 Repair Windows 11 network by installing and configuring IP
Step 1
Finally we have the opportunity to configure our IP which is the address of the computer to have access to the Internet network, to use this method we are going to open CMD as administrators: We accept the UAC permissions:
Step 2
Now we are going to release the IP address by executing the command:
ipconfig /release
Step 3
Then we renew the IP by executing the following command:
ipconfig /renew
Step 4
This will allow the IP address to be renewed using the DNS server, then we will execute the following:
netcfg -v -u dni_dne
This command is responsible for making some internal adjustments to the network configuration, allowing all connection tasks to be successful.
Each of these steps are integral in helping us fix the not connecting to a network error in Windows.
