I've been having this problem with my ethernet port on my motherboard for the past year and today I am posting about it in hopes of getting a solution for it.
The motherboard that I have is a M4A89TD PRO/USB3. The problem that I'm having with my port is that every time I shut down the computer and try to turn back it on, the ethernet port doesn't light up. In addition, my ethernet driver (LAN Connection) won't even show up if I were to boot up to the desktop. But if I restart my computer, it works. If I want to shut off my computer and have my ethernet working every time, I have to turn off the power supply completely after the computer has been shut off and turn it back on when I want to turn on the computer.
The first year that I was using this board, there was nothing wrong with it. The problem appeared somewhere in between the years. I'm not sure what triggered it. I have downloaded the latest drivers from the ASUS site, but nothing has solved this problem.
Other PC Specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
AMD 965
2x2gb g.skill RAM
650w corsair psu
5870 gpu
