  2. Install a driver for your network adapter

    Go to the list of network adapters in the control panel, turn of the lan and turn it on again. See if that helps.

    Issues with network adapters

    Hi Alfonso,

    To resolve this issue, we suggest that you run the Network troubleshooter when you switch from WiFi to Ethernet connection. The Network troubleshooter can help diagnose and fix common connection problems including clearing the network cache to obtain a new
    IP from the new network. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • In the search box on the taskbar, type Identify and repair network problems, and then select
      Identify and repair network problems from the list of results.
    • Follow the steps in the troubleshooter and see if that fixes the problem.

    If the issue persists, kindly try the troubleshooting steps on the following link:

    Fix network connection issues in Windows 10
    .

    We recommend that you try the steps on the Update the network adapter driver,
    Run the Network troubleshooter followed by networking commands, and Use network reset to reinstall network devices sections.

    Let us know how it goes for us to assist you further.

    why does my network adapter have to identify each time i restart or turn on my pc

    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.
