    Device manager keeps refreshing only when connected to the internet


    I've tried using a wireless adapter and ethernet, but no luck. I've tried old and new drivers for the wireless adapter too. This causes games to stutter making them unplayable. Any advice is much appreciated!

    :)

    Device Manager keeps refreshing due to ethernet connection. Help.

    Uninstalled Hamachi now with no success to regarding the refresh problem. The game doesn't have any updates. Yes I was playing on an older one and the game was running just fine. After a restart and I believe a small Windows update this problem occured. I updated my graphic driver to the newest version with no success regarding the refresh thing. The DLan is connected via the LAN port.

    I did that already except for the drivers part.

    Will give the site regarding the same problem a shot.

    The thing is, my Internet works fine. The problem is just the device manager resetting itself which causes game freezes in the game mentioned above.

    The link provided by you regarding posts with the same problem does not work for whatever reason.

    The 2 down arrows mean the devices are disabled. Try enabling the device.

    Internet connection dropping


    I had already tried this and it did not work. I did find an updated driver for my adapter (Realtek) and so far no more problems. Thanks for the suggestion!
