Hello!

All networking suddenly stopped working on this desktop computer running Windows 10. The Ethernet status lights are the normal green and yellow, so it does seem to be recognizing a connection to the router. The ethernet connection is enabled and the drivers have been updated to the latest version, nothing seems to work.

Windows troubleshooting says there is a problem with the driver but even after reinstalling different versions nothing changes. Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you

have you done anything about firewall? also try to scan your system for virus/malware, it might be causing it.. if nothing works, restore you computer from previous states that it works fine
