The uninstalling of Intel I219-V - A Novel

Howdy folks,

 

I've been fighting with this ethernet adapter, Intel I219-V for about 3 days now, to get it uninstalled, since it is running drivers as new as 2015 and it completely refuses to update to a newer version, and to install the newest version 26.4 package that claims to support this particular pain-in-my-mass adapter.

 

Now, for referece, I've been following and working off a previous discussion that presented a similar issue, on this forum: https://community.intel.com/t5/Ethernet-Products/How-do-I-uninstall-the-quot-Intel-Network-Connections-quot/m-p/641897

 

To summarize the issue: I have followed the steps presented in the discussion above but that bubonic plague of an adapter keeps coming back with a vengeance, whether the ethernet cable is plugged, unplugged or whatever else I try to do to it. That thing is as immune as a damned cockroach.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions that might help me get rid of this thing?

 

Thanks in advance for the help!

Thank you!

 

It would appear that you have finally managed to figure it out. For future reference, please avoid closing threads until after you've discussed with the OP, since you, in particular, seem to manage to draw the wrong conclusion and make what is already a problem, substantially worse.

 

I shall try the suggested fix and come back with a response during the course of the day.

Hello AlexAnastasiu,

 

I hope this message finds you well. I am posting another message to check if you tried following the steps that we provided. And also, let me add, since you are using an onboard i219-V, have you tried checking with them about the issue and ask them if they have their own network driver for the board?

Hello AlexAnastasiu,

 

How are you today? I am just checking if you try our last recommendation and also to check if you already tried contacting the manufacturer of the board for further assistance since the network card is onboard. Since we have not heard back from you, I need to close this inquiry. 

If you need further assistance, please post a new question.

 

Thank you and stay safe.
