Method 3: Resetting the TCP/IP Connection

This particular error can also occur if the TCP/IP instructions become damaged or corrupted. The set of built-in TCP/IP instructions is one of the most important parts of your Internet connection. If you find yourself in a scenario where you can’t connect to the internet at all, TCP/IP might be causing it.

Fortunately, you can reset the TCP/IP instructions fairly easily using the NetShell utility. Here’s a quick guide on how to reset your TCP/IP connection:

1. Press Windows key + R to open up a Run dialog box. Then, type “cmd” and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open up an elevated Command prompt. When prompted by the UAC (User Account Control), click Yes to grant administrative privileges.
2. Inside the Elevated Command Prompt, type in the following command and press Enter to reset TCP/IP manually:

   netsh int ip reset

There are three unnecessary technologies that might end up triggering the ‘Name resolution for the name wpad timed out‘ error. Several affected users have reported that their connection became stable once and for all after they disabled RSS, Autotuning, and Taskoffload.

This procedure can be a little tedious, but we’re going to show you a quick way on how to do this from an elevated Command Prompt and Registry Editor:

   netsh interface tcp set global rss=disabled
   netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
   netsh int ip set global taskoffload=disabled

3. Once the three technologies are disabled, close the elevated Command prompt. Then, open a Run box (Windows key + R)m type ‘regedit‘ and press Enter to open up the Registry Editor. When prompted by the UAC (User Account Control), click Yes to give administrative privileges
4. Inside the Registry Editor, use the navigation bar at the top to arrive at the following location:

   Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

   Note: You can navigate there manually or you can simply paste the address inside the navigation bar.

5. You also need to disable the Scalable Networking Pack (SNP). To do this, open each of the following registry key and set their Value data for each to 0:

   EnableTCPChimney
   EnableTCPA
   EnableRSS

   Note: If one of these or more of these keys don’t exist, you’ll need to create them manually by going to Edit > New > Dword (32 – bit) value and name each key accordingly.

6. Once the modifications have been made, close Registry Editor and restart your computer. At the next startup, check if the issue has been resolved.
