#120
@waltc,
From the 21327 MS blog:
- We’re working on a fix for an issue where some devices with Realtek network adapters running driver version 1.0.0.4 may experience intermittent loss of network connectivity.
This is what they load with build 21327, perhaps it is just a bad driver from 2/15/2121, probably any older driver still works fine, at least till they update the one downloaded in the current build with a good one. (rtcx21x64.sys)

Hi there
Different boot / updating message to the basic one this time while updating (did via WU not UUPDUMP this time).
Other than that -- seems to be OK so far.
Running as a VM BTW.
After boot - running fine
Still nothing like as slick / fast running as W2K19K server "frigged to run as a desktop" though even on a VM -- but I'd imagine most people here won't get a copy of W2K19K server (especially a VL one so no activation problems ) to play around with !!!!!!!! --If you can get one (or even a trial) it really shows difference between a Commercial server OS and the W10 consumer grade OS editions !!!
IMO that's what M/s should be doing -- get the W10 consumer grade OS'es to perform as near as possible to their server editions --in theory should not be difficult since W10 is essentially a "Single user OS". Who cares about new icons etc - just get rid of all the bloat etc in the consumer editions of W10.
OK there are difficulties -- particularly with drivers etc since consumer grade OS's will have every bit of conceivable hardware around and a whole infinite (or almost) shedload of applications that could be installed on it while corporate Servers are usually pretty standard - but in reality that shouldn't be an excuse for poor or reduced performance.
Cheers

The only bug is that System (CP) is not available all over. System Settings crashes when searching for it.
Ethernet is OK here, this is what I get for the Realtek card, not using wifi.
Ethernet:

I will know for sure if they've fixed the bug when the next new build is installed...my comments, too, have concerned my own 2.5Gb RealTek NIC, exclusively...doesn't seem at all limited to just the Microsoft driver, as that's not been the case for me. All of the drivers in my system--I have about ten installed between Microsoft and RealTek--have exhibited the problems described in my OP. Glad Microsoft is on the case--but it's never been about the Microsoft driver in particular--that would have been easy to solve as I've been getting my drivers from RealTek for many months now--so I have the Microsoft drivers & the RealTek drivers installed--and they've all had the dropout/lost Gateway problem for the last few months--so far the only cure has been a manual install--1.0.0.4 driver works fine if manually installed through the DM, etc.
We'll see if this one stays up after the next build install!

The gateway failed again today after the latest update.
Device manager showed the exact same one as last week when it was working.
Last week I had tried to go in Device Manager and install it from there. It worked for a few hours then failed again. Then I ran the exe to Repair it, and it worked the rest of the week until today.
