Unable to install network driver for Intel® 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection

[Nileshram]

I have a Dell Optiplex 7010 with an Intel® 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection, I have Intel® Driver & Support Assistant installed and it says there is a driver update available for my network adapter but when I get to installing, it says that there are no Intel® Network Connections on this computer, is there any way to fix this or install the drivers in other ways? I tried installing 4 times and it failed all the times. I disabled all other network adapters in Device Manager and tried but it still didn't work.

Same for me.  ASUS B23E.

You may try to download and install manually the Intel® Ethernet Adapter Complete Driver Pack 29.3.1.

Like Nileshram, it fails.  It's crazy how we get the msg that there are no INTEL connections installeded while we see the devices in Device Manager.

Hi @Scott165 
Your problem may be different. You have an old laptop (2nd generation CPU). It is not clear to me what is network adapter installed in this laptop (it is Intel adapter?) and what is the O.S.? In my opinion, you should open a thread of yours (with the all relevant technical details), or even better, ask the question in Asus support.
