rant on
Sooo - I bought a new computer.
I also bought and installed an ethernet card so I could obtain faster connection speeds so I could have faster upload and download speeds.
I shut off the wireless connection and I want to be only ethernet.
The new computer goes into sleep mode -- OK, so not a big deal
When computer wake up I have no internet or network at all - now that IS a big deal
I need to reboot in order to reset everything so I have connection again
I start online searching as to why it is happening and how to fix it.
Interesting that there are a LOT of postings about the very same issue - LOTS and LOTS of postings,
I tried one - nope
I tried another - nope
again
again
over and over
After wake up - no connection
Look for the suggested setting.
Nope it's not there
Online searching as to why the setting is not there and how to get it to display
Ohhh - I need to edit the REGISTRY ---- ? REALLY ????
I am not comfortable editing the registry!!!!!
So I do it anyway
This morning was my third registry edit just so I can get the setting to appear - so I can TRY to get the ethernet to be active after wake up.
So now to me - and I know I am slow --- it just seems like a basic thing.
I want my ethernet to be there after my lunch so I can resume creating my video on Cool Things, without needing to reboot the computer.
KNOCK - KNOCK - KNOCK --- HELLO - MICROSOFT ---- WE HAVE a PROBLEM
I have been reading posts online that were posted since 2018 and Microsoft doesn't know about it????????
All the registry edits are for settings that MICROSOFT has intentionally left out.
Am I the only one that wants to use ethernet rather than WIFI, because ethernet is faster?
OK - sorry
rant off
