Intel 82579V drops connection every hour on windows 10

[PSche4]

I encountered the same Problem.

Additional Information:

before 23.07.17 the system worked properly with windows 10 64 home.

in the eventlog of the Adapter i can find an update from 23.07.17 22:23.

Since this update windows presents after system start an Intel 82579LM insted of Intel 82579V in the device manger.

A klick on the recongnize changed hardware button solves the Problem for some time, (I didn't test if it reoccures after longer work, e.g. one hour)

But always after a system reboot or cold boot the same problem occures again.

The latest driver is installed,

Cable an router checked.

Any suggestions?
