If your network card is not working on your Windows system, there are a few steps you can take to try and troubleshoot the issue.
First, make sure that the device is connected properly. Check all cables and ports to ensure nothing is loose or disconnected. Now, check to see if any errors show up in Device Manager. In Windows 10, right-click the Start button, select Device Manager, and then find the Network Adapters section. Look for any warning signs or error messages next to your network adapter, and if you find any, double-click it and visit the Driver tab. Make sure the driver is up to date and try updating it if it isn’t. If that doesn’t help, try uninstalling the driver and then reinstalling it.
If your network adapter is still not working, try resetting your network adapter settings. In Device Manager, right-click on your network adapter and choose Disable. Then, right-click it again and choose Enable. This usually resolves any software-related issues with the adapter.
If this doesn’t work, try rebooting your system. This can often correct random software and connectivity issues that cause problems like these.
If the above suggestions do not work, you may need to reset your TCP/IP stack. To do this, open a command window (type “cmd” in the Run dialog). At the command prompt, type “netsh int ip reset” and press Enter. This will reset the IP stack and reload new settings.
If none of the above suggestions resolve the issue, it is likely due to a hardware problem. You should take your device to an authorized repair center to have it checked out. They should be able to diagnose the issue and replace any faulty components.
In addition to the above suggestions, it is important to keep your system updated with the latest software and drivers. This will ensure the best performance and compatibility with your network card. Also, make sure your system meets the requirements for using a network card. If your system does not have enough RAM or processing power, your network card may not work properly.
Finally, if you are still having difficulty connecting to your network, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) for help. Sometimes the issue lies with them, and they can help resolve any issues related to your connection.
