Ethernet Cable Not Detected: Network Card Driver Issues & Virus Removal - SlimDrivers Tool

How do I identify and install the correct Ethernet controller driver on Windows 64-bit when a wired network cable is not detected after a virus removal?

Identify the Ethernet controller by its hardware/device instance ID in Device Manager, then download the matching driver from the motherboard manufacturer’s website; SlimDrivers should be avoided because it can report drivers as installed when they are not [#16560529] [#16560552] [#16560581] If the driver comes as a .rar archive, unpack it first and in Device Manager choose the driver update option and point it to the extracted folder [#16560636] Make sure you are dealing with the wired Ethernet controller, not the USB 802.11n wireless adapter, because they are separate network devices [#16560552] When testing the cable, disconnect from Wi‑Fi first, since the screenshots showed the wired card had already received a correct address via DHCP and should work [#16560700] [#16560752]

    Hello! I wanted to connect to the internet yesterday with an Ethernet cable. However, it does not detect me, I warn you that I do not have drivers for the network card and I do not know how to upload them. How do I know which drivers to upload ?? SlimDrivers shows me that I have correctly downloaded drivers all the time.

    I will add that before I had the appropriate drivers, this is not the fault of the modem or cable, suddenly as if the drivers were removed, then it turned out that I had a virus, I scanned the computer and got rid of the virus, but there is no rudders.

    Download the driver to your computer motherboard. By the way, you'll update other drivers.
    Drivers can be found on the motherboard manufacturer's website. You will search for your model and the rest is simple.

    But no, because I have other drivers besides the network card driver - I don't know how to find it. Screen is visible, where instead of the model the network card is written

    Throw away this program, programs of this type can do more harm than good. If it shows that an un-installed driver is correctly downloaded, then there is little use of this program at all.

    You have two network cards - wireless, currently theoretically installed, as well as wired, it has no driver installed and therefore has no right to work.

    An ethernet controller is a device that a colleague should focus on. He did not provide the colleague with the model of the equipment concerned, so now:

    Also write what system you have.

    Unpack, select card driver updates in the manager and select the driver directory as the source.

    But what? The card is installed, did you get the address from dhcp after connecting to the router?

    Why do you put screen with wifi networks?

    You should decide whether you want to connect via WiFi (as now) or via cable.

    Well, because I installed the drivers and it still doesn't work, I don't know what to do, I don't know much about it.

    So why are you doing this? Suddenly it occurred to you that you need to connect to the network via a cable instead of wifi?

    Have you connected the cable to the card and the other end to the router? If so, replace screen with the result of the command: ipconfig / all
    Run the command in the cmd window.

    Because I have lags via wi-fi. I have so-called mushroom on the balcony, which searches for wi-fi, and that my computer is far from the balcony, this is a weak signal.

    Yes I did

    The screenshots show that the card got the correct address via cable, everything should work. Of course, disconnect from the WiFi network beforehand.
