Hi,

Have you added correct Default gateway and DNS server addresses?

ASKER

Yes we have..

Please verify the output of ipconfig /all
You should do that, because the GUI sometimes lies about the configuration.
add? do you mean multi-home static IPs?

I mean not allow dhcp to assign but to physically add one to win10
but you have to insert valid IP config values.
It means unique IP, valid Mask, valid Gateway and finally not to forget define at least one DNS server which is also important because it translates hostnames to IP (www.google.com into its public IP)

We do have all of those settings correct... Just verified them.
At Command prompt, run:
tracert 8.8.8.8

Does it complete?
Is your gateway in the hop list?

If no, where does it stop?  If yes, then it's probably a DNS issue.  In which case, subsequently run nslookup at command prompt.  Make note of the NS server returned (and post here) and the results of the lookup for google.com.

ever tried NETSH to manually assign a static IP?
Further to helpfinders post and DHCP assignment conflicts....

Re-enable DHCP on the PC.  Run ipconfig /all.
Make note of what is assigned:  IP, subnet, gateway and DNS.
The use those exact same values (not a variation) as the static values.

Does that work?
