Windows 10: Any time I restart network adapter "Identifying Network"....

Ever since I updated to windows 10 any time I do a restart my network adapter is stuck on Identifying network. If I do a shut down and cold start it works fine. I cannot figure out what the problem is. When I try to update the driver it tells me it's the most recent driver. When I go to Intels site to look for the driver all I see is windows 8.1 drivers.

:)

 

Wifi networks not showing up

It seems i dont have a network adapter troubleshooter. I ran some other internet troubleshooter, and it couldnt identify the problem

 

Dongle connecting to wifi but PC Network not

The adapter connects to the Internet no problem, but somehow the network shows the yellow exclamation point with "Identifying"

 

I have the exact same problem. Hope someone out there has a solution.

 

I have not found a solution to this yet. Just reporting back. Would like some help!

 

First check I would make is to see if the NIC is set to enable it to be turned off by the computer. If it is, uncheck that box and see if that helps.

 

I had this same issue on a clients system (actually 3 of the same)... Asus i5's with Intel Ethernet Connection I217-V onboard NIC's... after Win10 upgrade... installed newest Win10 driver from intel...
