Cannot connect to the Internet

Hi

at some stage after I was able to connect I found the Medion Drivers support site,
they bascically said I needed to connect to Windows Update to download the drivers.

At that point I was using my phone as a Hotspot.

I went to winows update and "Checked for Updates".

I got an error message that Windows Update failed.

At that point I was called away and just left the PC where it was, trying
to run Updates.

When I got back, a few hours later I got the message that my PC was up to date.

This morning I turned my PC on and it had connected to the Network and running fairly well,

An Internet speed test showed around 10 MBPS download and slightly faster upload.

I have just done another test and it is down to 5 Download and around 1 upload., I guess as Australia
wakes up and connects there is less to go around. But this is useless.
===============================================================================

I cannot find a Medion site that has a driver of any kind for the Motherboard.

I guess the ongoing question is "what happened to the Ethernet entry in Device Manager??

I am begining to think that this has more to do with my provider than anything else.

I will try to go through your posts and see what I still need to do.

Regards

Daniel

If still missing drivers, try scanning with Snappy Driver Installer.

If it finds one for that, try that and only that- ignore any others.

Hi

I think I need your level of knowledge to use that program, my Grandson would probably
understand the questions but I don't.

I have no idea where to go with that program.

Hi again.

with the limited amount of info I have given you, do you
feel that this is a hardware, software or providor issue?

@MaloK - thoughts on 'slow performance' given the limited info? Thanks.

From what I've got from the start of the thread.

Verify / Replace CMOS battery

Insure that all Elements are Active in BIOS / UEFI, Use a bootable USB OS to verify if the Devices can be loaded there.

If there is material defect in the network components. It could ampere on other components: Like the Chipset and PCIE buses.

Also there could be drivers misconfiguration / corruption etc...

I would probably try a clean install on another Drive to eliminate as much variables as possible.

Make sure the machine is "really good" on all aspects, before going on a Software Crusade to recover a corrupted Windows installation.

Hi

Device Manager does not show any Ethernet Connection, there was an Ethernet connection showing
but after I ran the driver update from the Recovery Disk it dissapeared.

I have just posted on the Medion forum looking for a MOBO driver download, hopefully one will show up.

Hi

my apologies for the lack of correspondence, I had to go to work for two days
and have not been able to access my PC, this is being sent form my work desk.

I am now being sent away for two weeks and will followup as soon as I get back.
