Latest update (1607) No network --AGAIN !!!!
Hi there
After latest update (using current build 1607) - totally lost LAN capability on Network -- laptop connects via Wifi but not LAN !!!! --LAN adapter - Bog standard INTEL so shouldn't be any problems with it. I have to have LAN at this work gig for security-- I can use private wifi for public access but I have to have LAN for Company network on this gig.
Undid latest updates -- now works perfectly.
C'mon Ms - we all know Networking has always been a weak link in Windows -- just LOCK some of your brightest developers into their offices until they get it TESTED and FIXED - and only feed them on Bread and Water until they do !!!!!!!
I HATE playing this "Will it work or won't it" after an update -- it's OK if you are in a development lab where you can test and play with machines at will but if you've got things to do and the computer updates unpredictably and then doesn't work properly --that's NOT acceptable.
Fortunately (I might be bonkers in some peoples eyes) but I always backup the laptop daily !!! Glad I did this time otherwise no access to company LAN !!! and that would have been a problem waiting for a day or two for them to sort out an old clunky work laptop running at the speed of molassess !!!.
Cheers
