realtek lan driver problem - win 7
- by tango _123
Hi,
my new notebook (ACER TM 8371) with Win 7(x32) professional as OS, has strage behaviour with respect to LAN.
when I plug or unplug my charger cable, or my notebook goes in stad-by, or just a do nothing, the netwrok connection is lost. All the energy savings functionbality have been in-activated.
if i check the network adapter information, it says "a network cabel is unplugged or corrupted", but it is not true.....the cable is in and it is not corrupted (i tried several which works on other machines).
if a tried to di-habilitate and hence re-habilitate, it allows di-habilitation and not to further re-habilitate (it says "no driver for the network card" are available).
in some cases, also, the driver disappears (i cannot see it anylonger).
if i restart the notebook, everything comes back to normality, but.....today in 3 hours i had to restart 6 times!!!
can anyone help me?
win 7 says the driver is the last one, so no need to update it.
here are some techinical information aboiut network card and driver:
