![]() ![]() About Ethernet Drivers:
Windows platforms generally apply a generic driver that allows motherboards to recognize the Ethernet component.
However, in order to make use of all network card (adapter) features, you must install a proper LAN driver that enables the hardware. This task enables systems to connect to a network, as well as collect all component characteristics such as manufacturer and chipset. If you intend to update the driver version, know that this process can add support for new OSes, fix different compatibility problems, resolve related errors encountered during the product’s lifetime, as well as include various other changes. When it comes to the actual installation procedure, we should note that most producers try to make it as easy as possible, so following the steps should be a breeze: just get the downloadable package, run the setup, and follow the on-screen instructions. There is a chance that other OSes could also be suitable, but it is not advisable that you install this release on platforms other than the specified ones. Remember to perform a system reboot once done, to allow all changes to take effect properly. Therefore, if you wish to apply this version, click on the download button and enable your network card. To stay up to speed with the latest updates, check back with our website as often as possible.
It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.
Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
I upgraded my machine (after a lot of pain) to windows 10. My wireless adapter seems to be working correctly, although the signal in the room is too poor to use the internet via wifi, but the ethernet adapter is not displayed in device manager and I cannot use the ethernet connection.
Current OS: Windows 10 64bitMotherboard: Gigabyte G1.Sniper(1.0)CPU: Intel i7 990xComputer is custom built
I tried using the disk that came with the motherboard, but before even attempting any installation of drivers it says that the OS is not supported. The website for my motherboard does not list any drivers for windows 10 (bigfoot LAN seems to be what I am looking for).
I tried using the windows 7 driver: it gets all the way through installation - the adapter temporarily appears in device manager - but right at the end, when it is 'registering product', it says a fatal error has occurred and appears to revert the changes.
The update notification said I was eligible for windows 10. However, I cannot find my motherboard here, and although the gigabyte microsite says 'the drivers and BIOS on all current GIGABYTE motherboards are ready and optimized for Windows 10', my motherboard is not displayed on the website.
How can I use the ethernet connection on the computer?
Edit: My network card is Killer 2100. Tried installing windows 8.1 driver from https://www.visiontek.com/download-drivers.html and the same thing happened.

Had a similar problem. I found that on going to the device manager and checking the network adapter it had been disabled by someone; not by me to my knowledge). I then enabled it and the Ethernet connection appeared and works fine. Hope this helps.

How to download guts and glory. This isn't going to be an answer that you may like, but this is most likely what is happening. FYI for anyone not familiar with the term NIC, it means Network Interface Card, or in other words the network adapter.
Answer:Your product does not have a Windows 10 Compatible Driver. I would suggest using any built-in NIC on your motherboard, and/or look at upgrading to a newer NIC with Windows 10 drivers.
Looking at the website you gave, it shows the latest driver for the Killer 2100 NIC is for Windows 8/8.1, and Windows 10 isn't showing up. Also according to Killer Networking (http://www.killernetworking.com/support/driver-downloads) that product is a legacy product that is handled by VisionTek, which doesn't guarantee the NIC will get Windows 10 drivers. You will need to contact VisionTek to check whether they are working on Windows 10 Drivers for the Killer 2100, or have a driver compatible with Windows 10.
Like with every piece of hardware, there has to be a Driver compatible with your version of Windows, and Windows 10 doesn't always work well with Windows 7/8/8.1 drivers. In some cases it doesn't work, doesn't work as expected, or disappears from the Device Manager (not 100% sure if it's uninstalling it or hiding it).
