#SURFACE ETHERNET ADAPTER NOT WORKING HOW TO#
My modem is a TP-LinkTD-W8968 if it and was thought to be the problem for my 10mbps speeds, my ISP is running 30mbps down speed, according to them, but it could of been my laptops ethernet port causing the slow down, before it failed ? Can anyone please help me on the issue of how to get the laptops ethernet port working again, or test if it is blown ? No power comes out the ISP's POE LAN port according to the tech who was talking me through the by-pass of my modem/router.

#SURFACE ETHERNET ADAPTER NOT WORKING DRIVERS#
I have updated the drivers for the laptop and it did not fix the problem. I have connected to the POE previous occasions to isolate the modem with various techs at my ISP, so I don't think connecting directly to the POE is the reason for the ports malfunction. The port on my laptop stopped working after doing this. I plugged the ethernet cable into the LAN socket of the POE box, and connected it to the ethernet port on my laptop. I'm not sure what they call the box the dish is plugged into, I think they refered to it as a POE ? We decided to plug directly into it and by-pass the router. Hi, I was on the phone to my ISP trying to work around an issue with my TP-Link modem/router, my ISP is NUSKOPE.
