Internet works, but the toolbar indicator shows it is not

I use "troubleshooting", then the system resets the network card, reboots the computer and everything is fine, but only for a day or two. This phenomenon started about 2-3 weeks ago and is still happening again and again. Crazy .
Maybe this is a Patch problem, maybe not. Have you met this trouble lately?
(Windows 10Pro 20H2)

Is it a wireless or cable connection or you have both?
Open device manager. Is there any yellow alerts of missing drivers?

Cable, my friend. No alerts about driver, it shows proper working even this icon shows different. As I told - internet works, icon shows in opposite.

Try this:

1. Open Registry Editor
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NlaSvc\Parameters\Internet
3. Modify the EnableActiveProbing registry key's value data from "0" to "1"
4. Restart the computer

Thanks, I did it and restarted. Now I have to wait 1 or 2 weeks if the problem occures, unless it will be earlier, sooner or later I will let you know immediately. I'll also checked this on earlier Windows backup, too.

Awesome! Glad that it worked.

As I told, this icon sometimes shows correctly, sometimes it shows incorrectly. The Internet always works.

I can say nothing more then this says
:


I've never change DNS and I think every reseting the network card sets the DNS properly.

"Silexium", congratulations! Older Windows image (copy of Windows) has value "1". How did you guess ?? )) Thank you.
It happened in an unknown way, I suppose during on of the Windows updates.
