Hello,
I am having an issue w/ my Maximus VI Hero and the NIC. If I resume from sleep, it will lose the IP from time to time.
My 1st board lasted 2 weeks before the issue begin. The replacement board also lasted 2 weeks and is now doing the same thing. Here's a picture:
As you can see, it assigns an automatic private address. I can fix this simply by running the hardware diagnostics. Also, I'm running Windows 8.
Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this? I've tried setting the link speed manually and changing drivers already.
Thanks!

Hi jodiuh, welcome to ROG Forum.
I do not like or use W8/W8.1, so my suggestions are based on W7, but i think they are also applicable to 8/8.1.
First of all, i think the issue could be with the router / modem connected to the motherboard, so, if you have another one, you could try it and see the results.
By the way, i’m also on a M6H and it is connected to a Cisco firewall ISA 570 and each time the mobo resumes from sleep, the Internet connection is always immediately on, a sign that NIC, IP addresses, etc, is all ok.
To leave out any doubt, i suggest you go to Task Manager > Sevices Tab > Services...> DHCP Client > right click Proprieties > check if the service is config. as “Automatic” and it is running.
2. A workaround to this issue could be to assign an IP address to the NIC, and as in my case the firewall/router almost always automatically assigns the IP address 192.168.75.100, if i had this issue, the config would be:
As you can see i’m not using TCP/IPv6, and if you use it, maybe you have also to config it.
Sorry if you already have tried this, hope this could help.
