Can not find brand (and consequently, drivers) for ethernet cable

[Jared20098]

I am trying to find out the drivers of this cable that came with the router my ISP (Movistar) sent me, with the computer I've connected it to having Windows 10 Pro freshly installed on it.

The writing on the cable says:

AWM 2835 26AWG 60 C 30V FT2 E237114

CSA 219561 AWM 26AWG II A 60 C 30V FT2

ETL VERIFIED CAT.5e UTP TIA/EIA-568B.2 CM 4PR

CABLETECH TECHNOLOGY

And that's what it says.

The cable worked before, on Windows 8.1, and I did an install to keep everything. What's wrong with it?

You don't need drivers for an ethernet cable.
You might need drivers for the ethernet port instead.
What motherboard do you have?
Is this a clean install of window 10 or did you do an upgrade from 8.1 to 10?

The motherboard is the Gigabyte P55A-UD3.

The motherboard is the Gigabyte PSSA-UD3.

Doesn't matter about the cable. The ethernet port is the problem.
The motherboard doesn't officially support Windows 8.1 or 10 so you don't have any drivers for ethernet. You could try to install the window 7 ethernet driver but it's not guaranteed to work.
If the generic ethernet driver for window 10 does not work, you have to get a compatible ethernet or wifi adapter or upgrade your pc.

Download the Windows 10 driver for your Ethernet port from here and install it. That should solve the yellow exclamation mark in device management and your Internet connection problem.

I installed it, but it won't detect the cable.

Do you see the LED lit built into the Ethernet plug? Do you have yellow exclamation marks in device management?

I don't see "Network Adapters" in Device Manager. The LED on the ethernet is not lit up.

I decided to just roll back to Windows 8.1, until we upgrade the motherboard.

Good luck! Would surprise me if that helps.

Turns out that the ethernet on Windows 8.1 stopped working! New motherboard is a definite purchase.

And it's sure not turned off in Bios by mistake? The Realtech chips usually don't stop working out of the blue.
