NIC

Asking for insights on why my ethernet port shuts itself down when my GPU is starting to literally cook, Like it only happens when I play a game that fully utilize my GPU to the point where the metal platel of the GPU is hot itself. I already cleaned my PC and changed the GPU's thermal paste &...

I have a 4-port NIC (StarTech ST1000SPEX4) in a new computer (MSI Codex R). When I try to shut down the computer it will shut down Windows 11 but the PC stays on, i.e. fans stay on, PCI-E card stay on, etc. I have to press the power button for 5s to do a hard shutdown and then start it again...

I found a 3com 3c905c-tx-m ethernet card for my pc afther the psu fried my onboard NIC. But I can't find a driver for Windows 7 64bit anywhere. I can find old downloads but those don't work! Where can I find a driver from?

Recently acquired new system, however, the download speeds are 1/5 of what they normally should be. My other devices, my old system, and roommates devices all get around 200-300 Mbps download, (300Mbps ISP). However with a fresh install (and even reinstall) of Windows, and even a dual boot with...

Hey all! I recently installed a 2.5 gig NIC, which is running the RTL8125B chipset. I updated the lan drivers to the latest from Realtek's website, and configured the network adapter settings for best speeds. However, when I launched COD, both Vanguard and Warzone have moderate NAT type. I port...

I recently installed a PCIe Network card. I have tried everything I could get my hands on or find via the WWW. The WIN NETWORK TROUBLESHOOTER continues to come up with "ETHERNET 2 Doesn't have a valid IP configuration". Just to be clear I need the "ETHERNET 2" to work. ETHERNET 2 goes wired...

hi, ive bought a DQ67EP with a 82579LM NIC, i didnt know that the NIC had packet loss problems and ever since ive started experiencing them ive tried finding a solution, im wondering if anyone knows a fix or new patches that might work to solve the packet loss problem :)

There has been 4 days this is happening. Internet works fine on every other device when my computer is shut down or not connected to the router via cable. But the moment I connect it, the internet simply stops working, on the PC, on my cellphone and everyone else's in the house. What is going...

Hi all I have a Dell T20 server and I have just bought another NIC that I'm going to install. Looking at the lane setup in the manual page 45, I don't know if there would be any detriment to installing the NIC in slot 4 which is connected to the PCH rather than in slot 1 which is connected to...

I haven't used my PC for a few months until I decided to set it up again a few days ago. I reset the BIOS my removing the CMOS battery and shorting cmos reset pins on my motherboard with a screwdriver. I was pretty sure everything was fine until I reinstalled windows 10 and noticed that there...

I know Cat6 cables are capable of transferring data at 10 gbps , but since my modem only gives a maximum throughput of 1gbps and my network interface card is also a 1 gigabit Ethernet adapter, what is the use of a Cat 6 Ethernet cable beyond better protection against electromagnetic...

PCIe specs specifies that 75w is supported on x16 slot. Initially 25W is supported at bootup & later after configuring as high pwr device, 75W is supported. Whether from server MB side this needs to be configured as HIGH power device.??

Hi guys, Recently I bought a new GPU of a friend of mine, its a GeForce GTX 1050ti made by gigabyte, and after I installed its drivers my network speeds dropped massively, previously I was getting about 15mb/s however now I get about 300kb/s. However I realised that when the GPU timed out the...

I am at my wits end over this issue. I'm using windows 10 (updated to 1903) and I'm hardwired to my router. When I turn the computer on, I do get close to 1 gigabit of speed as intended for my download and 40 Mbps upload. As time goes on, the download speed starts degrading and in less than 24...

Hey. So my family decided to get Gigabyte speed services and I reluctantly agreed to get a network card since it seems like the previous model could 'only handle' >100 mbps (they like 'uniformity' and i'm already a black sheep for using Windows still and not Macs). But upon using Adobe or...

If you've used Windows with mapped drives you'll be familiar with the "Could not reconnect all network drives" error that has been around since Windows 7. There are no absolute fixes, but several workarounds. One such is to run a batch script at log on which reconnects the drives so you don't...

We just had a 300 mbps Internet service installed in our home, and my desktop routinely registers average speeds of 315 mbps. Needless to say, I'm very pleased. My wife and son, however, have their desktops connected to the same router via Cat 6A Ethernet cables, as I do, and their average...
