And you have statistically assigned an IP address including DNS to the wireless connector?<br />
<br />
Does the laptop have the ability to physically connect to the network for testing purposes?<br />
<br />
Are other machines able to join the domain?

Try using a wired connection when joining the laptop to the domain.

I would not be surprise if Ipv6 had precedence over IPv4. Seen this happen before.

This is a new server<br />
Does not run DHCP<br />
Trying to join Win 10 Pro to Server<br />
Error is Specified domain either does not exist or could not be contaacted<br />
The laptop is wireless but on the same network, i.e. ip addresses<br />
The Server has a fixed ip address<br />
Ipconfig /all on server is ipv4 address - 10.1.10.10<br />
Default Gateway - 10.1.10.1<br />

Response was &quot;Successful&quot; TCPtried - False UDPTried - True<br />

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Windows Server 2016 is the successor to Windows Server 2012 R2. Built upon the same core code as Windows 10, Windows Server 2016 brings enhancements in security, servicing, and connectivity. A particular focus on this release was hybrid-cloud scenarios, and has close ties to Azure and other Microsoft cloud initiatives. This does not detract from the many improvements that are available for on-premises-only deployments

Windows Server 2016 comes in Datacenter, Standard, and Essentials editions, and for servicing, has adopted windows 10's cumulative model. The new nano-server install is designed to be remotely managed and is designed to be kept current through continuous feature updates. The full GUI install operates similarly to windows 10's "Long Term Servicing Branch" (LTSB) model with cumulative security updates.

Windows Server 2016 has also shifted from a per-processor-and-CAL licensing model to a per-core-and CAL licensing model. This brings Windows Server's licensing more in line with Microsoft's other products and makes hybrid-cloud license planning easier as well.

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.
