Asus b550 Intel(R) Ethernet Controller (2) I225-V disabled

ericksoto13 — Wed, 09 Mar 2022 21:27:30 GMT

I have experienced this problem since many months ago, and Windows 11 reinstalls without success.

Intel(R) Ethernet Controller (2) I225-V this adapter gets disabled only when playing a specific Xbox GamePass title on Windows 11.

The game is Forza Horizon 5, while playing at a random time, the ethernet adapter will get disabled, so I close the game and go to control panel, surprise the adapter is not only disabled but it will refuse to get re enabled, only if I restart the PC I will get internet again from the wired connection to that ethernet adapter.

The problem does not happen if I enable the Wi-Fi internet connection, and even If remain with the wired ethernet connection, I can browse stable for hours, and play on other platforms like Epic games with no problem, the question here is, why that specific game? and why the adapter is not re enabled when I use the option in Windows 11? What is the problem with this adapter?
