I gig powerline adapters arriving today. Should sort it - thanks!

Intel L210 Gigabit Connection. So industry standard. Have one in this PC and it works just fine.

You sure about that? 600mbps is the spec? And it doesn't connect at all.

Yes, but the problem is not speed - it's that the card does not connect to the internet when set to gigabit. Auto-negotiate goes to 100mbps. So that rules out the powerline.

Cat7 cables bought for all connections when we upgraded, so I don't think it's that.

Thanks

Hi,

We recently upgraded our broadband to full fibre to the property BB. 250Mbps.

Three PCs hardwired to the router, two by ethernet powerlines (TP-link AV2000 2-Port Gigabit Passthrough...

Thank you. Please excuse tardy reply ; I'm not online much, and have been out all of today. I'll take a look at this and get back

Cheers! It seems that despite the error message, the default location was in fact re-instated. Still got the two icons! But what the hell - as my Mum used to say "Worse things happen at sea". Just...

Both shell commands produce the same result. 280396

Maybe being dumb but cannot see " that above site" - is it by any chance

That may well be the way forward! The Music folder is fine - and that's another drive; Downloads and Pictures were moved to a data drive. All are backed up, so I shall do that. Thanks.

Correct. WHY is what I want to know, and more to the point, how do I get rid of it! I do have a spare 4Tb drive with some poor sectors, which I could use to transfer my videos to manually, then try...

No. Both the same folder. Indeed, have just gone to look at our PC downstairs., which has also had the main folders moved to another drive, also has two invocations of Videos. None of the other...

Just a thought. I forgot about the W10 Control Panel.Security & Maintenance/View Reliability history whilst trying to fix the same symptoms on you on my PC (which had had my old OS drive and CPU from...

All of my main navigation pane folders which can be moved from their default location, have been. Music and Videos kept on separate drives.

Yet the...

Yes! That fixed it, and indeed, not only can I see the missing PC on the network but the router is there as well. Thanks for the info on Master Browser. I have a BT Hub 5.0 router - using PlusNet -...

Yes, have already done this re services. Do you really need SMB for network discovery to work?! Will try that anyway. What is "Master Browser" status, and how does one set it?

Thanks for the...

All three PCs have the same network sharing settings. Two are W10 Pro, one W10 Home. Have tried resetting network on all etc etc. Can see if addressed directly, e.g. //PC3/whatever - but the PC never...

I don't think this is the same; I know that after every major upgrade I have to edit the registry to get rid of the duplicated fixed hard drives shown BELOW This PC. Look at my screen shot - the...

Happened when shuffling my Videos folder about from one location to a temp location then back again. Cosmetic, really - but annoying. One shows as Videos, the other as is location, F:/; only the...

Have updated the Intel driver; out for the rest of the day so will not be able to check till tomorrow; thanks for all how posted and watch this space!

I shall try that. No luck with any of the suggestions made so far. Watch this space!

Jumanji - many thanks, am investigating that now and will report back.

I removed a 3TB Seagate HD from its external box as I wanted to use it internally. Have done this 3 or 4 trimes before with no problems (yeah, warranty, sure...); this was sort of surplus to...
