You’re going to need to repost that so it’s legible.

so when i go to post a copy of my cmd ipconfig/all it looks great when i paste it but when i hit post it gets a jumbled together. so i guess the WD TV LIVE and the formating are both junk.

you can read it if you know what to look for.

Why is the primary DNS on your router set to 192.168.0.100?  Are you running your own DNS server at that address? If not, then I’d about bet that not only is your WD not working,  but neither is any other DHCP device on your network…

Your PC is probably timing out with every DNS lookup, and having slow connections until it fails to the next (correct) one at 75.75.75.75 (Comcast’s DNS.)

The WD only uses the primary DNS, so unless there’s actually a DNS server at 192.168.0.100, then it’s going to fail to connect to the internet.

BTW, ordinarily, it’s worthless to post your PC’s configuration when the WD is the device you’re having an issue with.

But in this case, you got lucky.

Here’s the relevent info, properly formatted:
