About 2 months ago, i built a computer and it was working well until one day, after turning it on, i pressed no to a certain update of sorts. Afterwards, i could not hook my computer up to ethernet, wherever i tried. It had worked before. I changed to a new location thinking it might just be my home network rejecting ethernet and i can use ethernet elsewhere, but alas, i tried today and it did not work. i updated the drivers using msi live update, but still no luck.

Has anyone run into this problem before?

Are there lights on the ethernet adapter lit up? Also - on the router, does your port light up?

Have you tried another port on the router?

To add to what @ronintexas said, if the cable is detected on the motherboard, the light on the port will light up green, if data is being transferred, it will flicker another colour.
