Fix Ethernet Doesn’t Have A Valid IP Configuration in Windows 11/10 [SOLUTION]
186Fix Ethernet Doesn’t Have A Valid IP Configuration in Windows 11/10.
Your computer uses an IP (Internet Protocol) address to connect to the Internet. This is an address that identifies a device on a network. It is used to communicate with other devices or the Internet.
Whenever you get the error “Ethernet does not have a valid IP configuration” it’s because your ethernet connection is not receiving a valid IP address from the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). This is a network protocol that enables servers to automatically assign an IP address to your computer for a specific network. As a result, the computer cannot be assigned a valid IP address, meaning it’s not able to connect to a network and the Internet.
If you’ve previously encountered a networking issue that says Ethernet doesn’t have a valid IP configuration, then something is wrong with your Network Interface Card.
The NIC is connected to your router or modem via the Ethernet cable. The problem arises if it fails to obtain a valid IP address.
A valid IP address is necessary for a computer to communicate with the router and operate in the web. Once a certain router or NIC becomes faulty or in case of incorrect IP address designation, an error occurs.

Ethernet doesn’t have a valid IP Configuration is caused when your NIC (Network Interface Card) hooked up to your Router or Modem via the Ethernet Cable is unable to get a VALID IP Address (Internet Protocol). This is needed for the computer to speak to the router, and function on the internet. There are three main causes for this issue to occur, the first one is a faulty router, the second one is an incorrectly assigned IP Address to the computer, and the third one is the faulty NIC. We will address the issue in three steps, and they must be followed in the sequence listed.
