I don't know where to post my thread :(

My laptop has suddenly stopped letting me connect to the internet. I know that the internet is working because there is another laptop connected to it. They are both wireless. When I try and 'repair' the connection it says "windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following action cannot be completed: Renewing your IP address"

When I type ipconfig/all it says
