almost everyday my internet adapter will stop working completelly than windows will say i do not have any adapters installed. I have done the following: - Disabled and renabled the device - uninstalled the drviers - updated the drviers - upgraded to windows 7 I am using Windows 7 Ultimit 64bit and the adapter is a Realtek RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P) Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.0).

What’s the result? Regards,Arthur Li - MSFT
