Creating Vlans with the ProSet utility in windows 11 not working

xorinzor — Thu, 12 Aug 2021 06:15:26 GMT

It seems PROSet would need an update for windows 11. Where it was working on windows 10 for me, it no longer works after the upgrade to 11.

Removed the drivers and utility, reinstalled both, still not working. The VLAN Adapters that are created will stay in a disabled state. Manually enabling them shows a "enabling.., enabled" message, but they will stay in their disabled state. Removing all VLANs and recreating them does nothing to resolve the issue either.

Running on a Dell Precision 7540, all latest windows & PROSet updates are installed.

Hello Criselle,

1. The Intel I219-LM Ethernet Controller

2. Yes, this laptop complies with all requirements of windows 11

3. I installed both the latest driver and proset utility from here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/18293/intel-network-adapter-driver-for-windows-10.html

Crisselle,

Yes same problem here no Ethernet after a full new w11 install ( no update from W10) . Run ProSet for W10 but that exit with error .

The solution.

Backup the W10 Intel i211 driver with Garyutil or other program in w10. In W11 devicemanager select the intel driver and update with the one from the backup filelocation. Then run the Proset for w10 . No error and Ethernet on W11 fixed.

Hello xorinzor,

Thank you for the reply.

Just to clarify, is the Intel I219-LM Ethernet Controller not working at all in Windows 11 or the Ethernet is working in a normal setup (no other configuration), however the VLANs created doesn't work?

Hello Nick B-Eng,

Can you please confirm if you also encountered the same issue as described on this thread wherein Creating Vlans with the ProSet utility in Windows 11 is not working? Or is it simply that the Ethernet is not working?

Looking forward to your replies.

We will follow up after 3 business days in case we don't hear from you.

Crisselle,

Was looking for the Ethernet Intel driver W11 but the only download on Intel site I found was ProSet??????? for W10.

It is a nice util but only for detail info on Intel drivers.

Hello Nick,

Thank you for the reply.

We may need to further check with our engineers if the Intel® Ethernet Controller I211-AT is fully supported on Windows 11 OS.

But before we proceed with investigation, can you please confirm first if you also encountered the same issue as described on this thread wherein Creating Vlans with the ProSet utility in Windows 11 is not working? Or is it simply that the Ethernet is not working?

Hoping to hear from you soon.

Should there be no reply, we will follow up after 3 business days.

Hello xorinzor,

Good day!

We'd like to follow up the below item for clarification so we can proceed checking this with our engineers.

Is the Intel I219-LM Ethernet Controller not working at all in Windows 11 or the Ethernet is working in a normal setup (no other configuration), however the VLANs created doesn't work?

Awaiting to your reply.

Crisselle,

I am also facing the same issue.

And yes thats correct. Normally the Intel ethernet controller works but as soon as the vlans are created the normal ethernet connection is lost and when clicked on vlan adapter to enable it, it will show enabling dialog box but the status remains disabled.

Thank You!

Same experience here on a different NIC:

OS: Windows 11 Home, Version 21H2, Build: 22000.160, Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22000.160.0

Freshly installed from Windows Insider ISO

All drivers updated, all Windows updates installed.

NIC: Intel 82599 10 Gigabit - Single port

Driver: 4.1.239.0 ( from Intel Driver 26.4 pack )

ProSet Version: 26.4.0.5

- When operating on the base device, with no VLANs created, the interface works fine ( on the untagged network only, of course )

- When VLANs are created, ( one or more, doesn't matter ), the VLAN interfaces show 'Disabled' in the 'Network Connections'

- Attempts to 'Enable' the VLAN interface reports that it is 'Enabled' in the pop-up, but the interface remains 'disabled'

- Confirmed that the base interface shows 'Intel Advanced Network Services Protocol' is enabled

- Confirmed the base NIC Device in 'Device Manager', along with all VLAN virtual interfaces are 'Enabled' and reports 'This device is working properly.'

Since the VLAN interfaces all remain disabled, even though all network devices in 'Device Manager' reports 'Enabled' and 'This device is working properly, connectivity is not functional.

This should be extremely easy to reproduce for Intel ProSet developers. Please let us know if you need any further information.

--- Corrected typo on NIC Driver Pack version.

Sorry for the delayed response.

The ethernet controller works fine until you start creating VLANs. It's at that point that the problems start.

Hello All,

Thank you for the patience on this matter.

Unfortunately, we've got a confirmation form our engineers that the following support will not be available in Windows 11 for Ethernet devices.

PROset DMIX will not be supported on Windows 11.
Advanced Networking Services (ANS) will not be supported on Windows 11.

This means that Teaming and VLAN will no longer be supported.

Feel free to let us know if you have questions or clarifications on this matter.

Looking forward to your reply.

We will follow up after 3 business days in case we don't hear from you.

xorinzor — Wed, 25 Aug 2021 10:24:59 GMT

Eh.. okay so what is Intel going to do about that? Having VLANs & Teaming are rather critical features.

Surely a company like Intel has tight contacts with the Microsoft Windows development team to iron this out or get it to work some other way (be it native in windows itself, or some other way).

Just saying "it's not supported" doesn't really seem like a proper response here.

Re: Creating Vlans with the ProSet utility in windows 11 not working

linuxkidd — Thu, 26 Aug 2021 15:52:03 GMT

I completely agree with xorinor. For those that manage larger networks with multiple VLANs, having a VLAN capable management node is a must. For this feature to drop off when it's been supported through many previous years of Windows releases is not easy to accept.

This is further frustrating when Windows 11 is a minimal departure from Windows 10. It seems likely a simple tweak should allow it to continue working in the next generation of Windows OS.

Thanks for re-escalating the issue. I hope we get a more favorable response.

MRDANIEL — Sun, 12 Sep 2021 11:59:13 GMT

Hello, same problem here with two motherboards (Asus Prime A Z490 and MSI Unify Z590) that have Intel I225-V. I can't switch to any VLAN. Ethernet adapter shows under Device manager, but stays disabled. Only untagged traffic is handled. I used to use a script in Powershell to switch between VLANs and that doesn't work anymore as well. Proset gui or Powershell command let are broken in Windows 11. So far, this is the only driver that is causing me issues for both motherboards. It reminds me a bug we had when Windows updated to fall update last year and it took Intel about 6 months to get this sorted out. Hopefully that won't be the case as we I am require to run backups on a separated network. THanks in advance.
