Window 10 cannot access internet with static ip
I recently switched to the new computer and our company all uses static ip to connect to internet. The new computer seems like it only works for dhcp but not static ip. My old computer uses window 10 also and had the same problem before. The problem goes away after some kind of window update. I try to run window update but it says it has some kind of issues and try to rerun later "does not show any error code". I reset window update many times but it still won't finish the update. It is for the update of version 1607. My window 10 is the professional one and the build is 10240. The static ip works ok because I tried it on the other computer.
Go to below link, open/save the Windows Update Troubleshooter, and follow the steps in the wizard to find and fix the problem.

That is very old. Update to 14393.953 (current) and see if this fixes the issue. There were networking fixes to 10240.

Separately, if you wish for a bit of a normal life, use DHCP. It just works better. Static IP for workstations basically died some years back.
I cannot download specific update anymore from microsoft, right? It has to go through window update.
Please try this:
First remove WIFI drivers in the Device Manager. Then log out from Microsoft account ( if you are logged in with it ) and log in to local account. Then reboot. install wifi driver, set static ip address and try to connect to the internet.

First DHCP is better and you should use it.
But, did you try updating to a year newer than what you have?
If need be do a Windows 10 repair. No need to lose anything.
Go to the Media Creation Link
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
Click on Upgrade to Windows 10 (even if Windows 10 is running), click on the Download button, select Open (Run) but NOT Save. It is possible you may need to go to the download location and run the program - it depends on exactly what MCL does (it changes from time to time). Allow the program to run. Allow drivers to update. Then select Keep Everything.
