Windows 10: Tried window 11 upgrade - ethernet connection issues

I tried upgrading my pc from windows 10 to windows 11 in july 2022. I have a direct ethernet connection between my pc and my router. Once I upgraded, I could not get any internet access. I tried unplugging and replugging in the ethernet cable, rebooting my router - nothing worked. I ended up backing out the upgrade. My pc is 2 years old. I am concerned if I try this again and the same thing happens, I won't be able to get any support. I did run pc check tool - My pc should be able to run windows 11. Any suggestions?

:)

Windows 10 Ethernet connection randomly disconnects

Hello,

So this issue has been annoying me since i have changed my old i5-4670 with a ryzen.

Ethernet: Realtek 8111H (MSI X370 Gaming Plus)
Modem/Router: Airties Air 5760

What i have tried so far to fix my issue:

• Re-installing Windows
• Updating Ryzen chipset drivers
• Updating Realtek LAN drivers (both from MSI & Realtek)
• Updating MSI' LAN releated drivers (MSI Gaming Lan Manager)
• Replacing ethernet cable
• Restarting router to factory settings

Still no luck, keeps happening randomly. Sometimes it is stable for days then it is not stable for 20 mins. Happening when gaming or idle, or while streaming via steam link.
Windows' own issue fixer thingy fix the issue for the moment, re-plugging the cable, disabling & enabling the ethernet adapter also fixes the issue for the moment.
Also i am the only one having this issue in the network, TV and phones are still connected to wifi.

It is started to be real annoying, so time to get help to fix the issue from TPU. Thanks in advance! *I Love TPU :lovetpu:

could you find the ethernet adapter in your device manager?

if not may look at the view menu of device manager, there mark Show hidden devices & then check if the Ethernet adapter appears in the list. Uninstall that driver & restart.

It should start working again.

If that is not the case, you need to connect the PC to internet, may be using Wi-Fi then go to settings>windows update>advanced>optional updates

install any and all optional updates present there, they should include the Ethernet driver, firmware updates etc.
