"Network Unavailable"

I seem to have a strange issue.  Really hard to search for this because the error being stated doesn't match what is going on.

 

When I try to use Skype for business on my work computer it states "Network Unavailable".  This is the only computer on the network that has this issue and the problem started after a power outage in the building.  The computer has all network functionality except with Skype for Business.

Things I've tried with no results:
Restarted workstation
Tried running the fix on Microsoft office (since Skype for Business is part of the package)
Made sure the computer had all Group Policy
Restarted the Skype for business server on local network.

Made sure firewall settings were set properly and all services running.

 

Not sure what could be causing the Skype for Business to say "Network Unavailable".  Any and all help is appreciated.

    Network Unavailable as in You cannot even login to Skype for Business or You are able to login to Skype for Business but unable to make a call or IM to others? Which one?

     

    Please share some screenshot to draw some clues what's going on.

      I cannot log in.   No one using this computer can log in.  It's not just my account either.  I can log into my account on other computers.  Just not this one.  It makes me believe the problem is local to the computer but not profile related.

       

      Hopefully this picture helps.

        restart network location awareness in services.msc
