RNDIS USB Modem Dongle is not working after installing Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

Hi,

Updated 1/31/18:

A fix for this issue was included in the
January 31, 2018 Windows Update (KB4058258). If you are experiencing this issue, please install the latest Windows Updates.

If the issue continues after installing the update, you may need to uninstall and reinstall your Remote NDIS network adapter using Device Manager:

• Open Device Manager. To do this, press and hold (or right-click) the Start Menu icon and select Device Manager.
• Expand Network adapters and find an entry for the Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device.
• Right click Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device and select
  Uninstall device.
• Select Network adapters and then select Action and then
  Scan for hardware changes.

Note:

• Ensure that the RNDIS device is plugged in on the PC's USB when performing these steps.
• If the RNDIS device is moved to another USB port, these steps will need to be repeated.

Microsoft is aware of reports of problems with RNDIS USB network adapters after installing the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. We are working on the problem and hope to have a solution released in a future Windows Update.

    Check for updates, then install any available updates.
• Ensure that the RNDIS device is plugged in on the PC's USB when performing these steps.
• If the RNDIS device is moved to another USB port, these steps will need to be repeated.

Step 1: Open Device Manager. To do this, press and hold (or right-click) the Start Menu icon and select Device Manager.

Step 2: Expand Network adapters and find an entry for the
Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device.

Step 3: Right click Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device and select

Step 4: Select Browse my computer for driver software.

Step 5: Select Let me pick from a list of available drivers for my computer.

RNDIS Failed to install after Vista SP2

Hi,

I appreciate you assistance, let me try and answer all the questions:

We only experience this issue on Vista SP2

We have Exchange 2003 and we use direct push to sync mail.

I only connect the device to browse it so we can upload our in-house applications to the phones.

Vista attempts to install the RNDIS driver when I plug the device in. It eventually fails. When I go into device manager it shows Generic RNDIS driver but it’s not installed correctly.

If I remove the Advanced Network Functionality on my device, Vista installs the generic serial driver which loads successfully but its disabled by default in device manager. If I enable this the driver fails to load.
