z490e ethernet issues/ new ethernet question

[g_patryk]

Hey all,

Been dealing with this junk ethernet on 2 computers, Its been working Ok until i started doing backups using synology.
Long story short the built in Intel(R) Ethernet Controller (2) I225-V. its fully updated with the firmware as well.

Symptoms: when a backup is initiated the ethernet becomes unresponsive, cannot disable from device manager, cannot reboot pc unless i flip the power switch.

I worked with synology support extensively running through logs, fixes, adjustments and the conclusion was that it only happens on this ethernet on 2 separate computers. Wifi works fine

Resolution:
I installed a tplink TG-3468 and I no longer have issues However why is it showing as realtek pcie gbe family controller instead of the TP link device? Not sure if its a huge deal.
Tried to contact support but apparently if you choose US the technical support function disappears (real nice asus)

ended up installing the latest windows drivers from

updated everything to 2022 drivers
