hello, my ethernet suddenly stopped working yesterday and it still hasn't come back, it's not the cable or router as it worked on my laptop and I tried with direct to my mb ethernet and a USB dongle, both didn't work, it says connected with no Internet and i can't access the routers firmware or whatever its called. Windows 10

uninstall and reinstall the ethernet driver from the motherboard’s website. Restart computer

#

Hopefully you have WiFi on that computer that works, or another computer that you can use to put the ethernet driver on

#

also check device manager and see if you find anything out of place

#

I think I had this problem before and all I needed to do was go in to the internet settings

I'll try reinstall the ethernet driver

#

reinstalling the driver didn't fix it :/

#

the ethernet cable definitely works, i used it to downlaod the driver on my laptop

#

i tried booting into safe mode and that didn't work either

#

safe mode with networking ofcourse

do you see your ethernet adapter in your windows Device Manager? are there any unknown devices listed in there?
