NDIS 10400 Frequent Warnings in Sys Log

[NDIS_Nightmare]

Currently seeing the NDIS 10400 error repeating in my sys log ever few minutes. Not sure when it started as dues to its frequency it pretty much owns 3 days worth of sys logging. I've seen quite a few posts on this dating as far back as October 2020  but with no solid resolution. All drivers are up to date and it doesn't appear any other WiFi connected devices are having the same issue. Curious if there is a known issue, how to track/diag and what the fix is.

Specific error:

The network interface "Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260" has begun resetting. There will be a momentary disruption in network connectivity while the hardware resets. Reason: The network driver requested that it be reset. This network interface has reset 16 time(s) since it was last initialized.

NDIS_Nightmare, Thank you very much for providing that information and the SSU report.

You mentioned, "it doesn't appear any other WiFi connected devices are having the same issue.", so, just to confirm, the problem does not happen with other WiFi devices, it only happens with the Gigabyte Z170X-UD3-CF, system?

What is the mode of the Router?

When you install the Wireless card separately that is what we called "Wireless Integration", did you check directly with the manufacturer of the Router/Acces Point, for them to guide you on the optimal configuration settings of the Router and if there is a possible Firmware update available for it?

Hi Albert,

Yes, I dont see other devices having the issue in logging. However, there is only one other PC on the network.

By mode do you mean ac/n/a?

As far as checking w/ the manufacturer of the router, its the most common Spectrum wireless router that they use for high speed 300+kb routing which I believe is the RAC2V1S Wave 2 802.11ac 4-Port Dual-Band Router. It is also self updating and when checking the admin functionality of the router there is no option to update the firmware. Any thoughts you have would be great.

Hi NDIS_Nightmare, thank you very much for letting us know those details.

"By mode do you mean ac/n/a?", Sorry, I meant to say the model of the Router, thank you for providing it still.

We will do further research on this matter, as soon as I get any updates I will post all the details on this thread.

Hello NDIS_Nightmare, I just received an update on this matter.

After reviewing the case, since after installing the Wireless drivers the issue persists, at this point what we recommend will be to get in contact directly with Gigabyte to check if there is a BIOS update available to install it and to check wireless card compatibility to make sure it is fully compatible with their board:
