    Sudden DNS issues with AC RT68U 386.7_2

    Might have posted in a wrong subforum. Noticed there were other questions regarding that router here, but probably should've posted in lan and wan routers since this is a personal computer, and I don't run console. I have been running continuing pings to my router and ISP, but so far never...

    Sudden DNS issues with AC RT68U 386.7_2

    I am not savvy enough to explain the issue properly, but since about 2 or 3 weeks ago - intermittently my pc connected via Ethernet cable through router or my phone connected to a wi-fi on my routers network, would lose connection to the internet. When this happens if I click on the Ethernet...

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    Unfortunately using UEFI didn't do anything. At least not while keeping the windows installation. Still getting latency issues and stuttering after some hours.

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    500$? Ehh no - it's actually 250$ right now. There could be some bundled motherboard+cpu which costs 500$ though. It's still a bit too much but i previously had similar 775 motherboard which was expensive but served me 7 years and i've sold it for a 30 bucks anyway. I might be wrong but im...

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    Frankly i don't really understand that section. I've seen it before but i don't think it actually relates to my situation. Right now CSM mode is set to enabled i think but since i've already created a new partition with UEFI and deleted the old one - it doesn't matter what the setting is. I've...

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    So how i do make sure that windows intalls in UEFI mode? To be honest i don't really see how UEFI or legacy mode can affect anything at all. As i said - whenever i pressed DEL during boot i would be taken into Asus UEFI bios and there's actually nothing in the manual about changing windows...

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    Well i've followed some online tutorial and replaced MBR with UEFI. Not it says UEFI in msinfo32 and EFI in disk managment. I already use SSD as my system disk but ill consider reinstalling windows sometimes later anyway. To be honest - i was not offered a choice during windows installation...

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    It doesn't mention UEFI partition either. I've found some tutorials on changing the partition without reinstalling windows but ill have to think about going through the re-installation again. Im not sure it's worth it.

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    Surprisingly it says "legacy" when i run msinfo32. Though in reality when i launch bios after the the pc starts - it uses modern Asus UEFI mode (it even says so below i think) and i have full control of settings. Am i missing something here and misunderstand what uefi means?

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    Not good. Even though i am using a separate tp-link PCI-e card now - the latency issues did not seem to have disappeared. After about 6 or 8 hours they become noticeable when i watch youtube videos or update several browser pages at once or download torrents (though the torrent one could be...

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    Yup. The consensus is that something is wrong with windows 10 and adapter drivers. Some people reported that rolling back to windows 8.1 fixed their issues but im not doing that. I've reinstalled windows 10 three times in a row when i was upgrading my pc and not doing that again. Also i prefer...

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    I didn't try that. If there's anything wrong with cables it's probably somewhere inside walls where i wouldn't be able to reach it anyway. Just in case i've switched back intel's ethernet adapter and replaced cables leading to pc from my router and to router from the outlet. Though tp-link...

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    I've been downloading same drivers from https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25016/Network-Adapter-Driver-for-Windows-10 And they've never mentioned 219 in the list of products below. Good to know that it at least exists somewhere. I've ordered tp-link as well. At least it's cheap.

    USB ethernet adapter versus PCI-E card

    I've had latency issues with this network adapter for more than half a year and nothing worked so far. There are plenty of threads on asus forums and intel forums about this issue and the only recommendation is to buy a separate network card. In fact - Asus customer support recommended simply...
