I'm having problems with Windows detecting my ethernet connection. The Ethernet cable is a hardline; connecting directly into the motherboard's on-board network adapter.
Basically, in the past the ethernet on this desktop would go out spontaneously. Sometimes it would automatically reconnect. Othertimes I would have to removed the cable from the port for it to be recognized. Perhaps even hardboot the router. A hassle but a quickfix nonetheless.
However, this most recent time hasnt been that successfuly. I tried all the above solutions that had previously worked. Although this time nothing is working. The ethernet cable head is a solid amber/orange. Whereas earlier there was also a green led. And the connection is not being recognized by the computer. But the network/Internet is working fine for the many other computers connected to it. I really dont know how to proceed from here. ANy help would be appreciated. Thank you
