  1. Windows 10 Ethernet connection problems


    This is Windows 10 Pro version 1903, OS build 18362.476. I lost the Ethernet connection after one of the cumulative Windows updates. I have the network card component and driver for Ethernet card. The message that blinks on the available networks menu is 'Ethernet Identifying... No Internet'. I did everything that I found in forums, including disabling and enabling the Ethernet connection, uninstalling driver and reinstalling it, resetting the network connections, change adapter options, and others. The Ethernet option in the Network Connections window keeps flashing with the message 'Identifying... Unidentified network... Network cable unplugged.' I checked the network cable on different computer, and it is working well. When I unplug the network cable, the message is steady 'Network cable unplugged'. When I plug the network cable in the port, then the flashing starts. So it seems that the system can't detect a connection for some reason.

    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:

    I suggest checking out the event log in Windows. It's likely going to tell you why (to some degree,) why the network connection was lost. I haven't had this issue with wired connections but, with wireless it has almost always come down to drivers or a strange software bug which boiled down to how the driver operates.

    Setting a metered connection for Ethernet?


    Please permit me to respectfully disagree, battlezone. Not only is it possible to do this, TenForums offers a tutorial that explains exactly how, step-by-step: Set Ethernet Connection as Metered or Unmetered in Windows 10. Do please check it out, won't you?
    Thanks,
