Hi Virender,

Thank you for contacting Intel.

We appreciate you reaching out to us regarding the reported issue. Upon checking, Intel Ethernet I226-V is not listed in the support driver for Windows Server 2019. You can find the info below:

Along with that, since the I226-V is built into the motherboard, we kindly advise you to contact the board manufacturer's support team for assistance. They will be best equipped to provide support and address any concerns related to the product.

Regards,

Fikri O.

Hi Virender,

Thank you for your prompt response.

Please note that the Intel® I226-V Ethernet Controller is not officially supported on Windows Server 2019. However, you may attempt the following workaround:

1- You can try manually installing the driver via Device Manager by pointing to the extracted driver folder.

2- Use the old driver pack:

If the manual installation is unsuccessful, we recommend considering Windows Server 2022, which offers broader support for newer Intel network controllers.
