Windows 10: Networking is broke!!

I don't know what's wrong, here. I thought I'd pinned it down to a bad network driver, but none of my other PCs had this issue. Rolling back the driver seemed to fix the issue, temporarily, and then when it happened again, I could simply roll the driver back again. Well, now, the driver can't be rolled back (presumably it's past the 10 day grace), but that begs the question: if it's the driver, why would it have gone past the 10 days without causing a problem?

Here's the symptoms: No network connectivity. Pinging 8s, or any network resource returns DHU from an assigned address, not 127.0.0.1. ipconfig shows Media Disconnected. Can't enable the ethernet adapter

What am I missing, here? It's not a physical layer, thing. I can plug anything else into the outlet and it works, which is why I'm bringing this to the Windows 10 board.

TIA!

Did our Epson printer get hacked?

Another question, is this on a home network or a work network? The steps @eidairaman1 listed are always a good first step. If this is on a work network you manage, I'd be much more concerned than the home one. It is possible someone is screwing with you, but malware could also be the culprit.

 

Windows 10 install broke network connections to printers & documents

bro67, am I understanding correctly that you are suggesting we purchase a NAS (Network Attached Storage) device? Or are you suggesting we get rid of half our printers? I'm not sure what you're suggesting as a fix for our situation, but buying new hardware/throwing away printers seems a bit over the top to fix something Windows 10 broke.
