I was so frustrated at myself for even trying to power off and disconnect the power from the PSU for a few minutes, felt quite the fool for even bothering to try it. However, on the way home forgot to drop into the local computer store so gave Google one last chance and came across this thread.
#REALTEK PCIE GBE FAMILY CONTROLLER SPEED DRIVERS#
I checked all cables, phoned the fibre provider/ISP, reinstalled drivers, rolled back drivers and booted with Ubuntu (I now have a nice little Ubuntu bootable USB stick I shall keep for future occasions) and eventually decided to buy a new NIC and plug it in. On this occasion it was same RealTek NIC (embedded in Gigabyte MB) dropping connect speed from 1Gb to 10mbps. I was laughing when I read this thread.īut given I had a similar issue previously and on that occasion it was Realtek gigabit dropping from 1Gbps to 100 mbps which had me pulling my hair out as I tested everything and it turned out to be not one but two dodgy Cat6 cables that needed replacing I thought I'd solve this one too. I had to sign up to post a response here but really felt compelled to when I read a solution that was no better than a scripted IT support department telling me to turn my PC on and off again. But if the network controller is 10/100/1000M Gigabit Ethernet, then it can run at up to 1000 MB/sec internet speed.

There's a new Realtek driver (.2011) on their site which I just downloaded. Realtek PCIe GBE family controller is referred to as a 2.5G Gigabit Ethernet most of the time, and so its speed is 2.5GB/sec. Overheat or overflow? That area of the computer gets rather hot but I really don't know. It is less common in 100Mb and sometimes happens in 10Mb. The problem is most frequent when operating in Gb mode.

Windows 10 device manager will scan for the changes you have made. Network Interface Controllers > 10/100/1000M Gigabit Ethernet. If there is any further detailed information required, please contact. On the top of Device Manager interface, click Action and then select Scan for hardware changes. Realtek PCI GBE Ethernet Family Controller Software. It will start up again and suggest a normal windows startup. Expand Network adapters and then right click the Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller to Uninstall device.

Since the machine stops dead the only solution is to turn it off by holding down the power switch for more than five seconds. I finally switched to the wireless adapter. It stopped maybe thirty seconds after the upload started. Once I was uploading about 80GB to a friend and the encrypted link was transferring at more than 10 MB/s. My impression is that the chip during heavy loads (downloads, uploads, watching TV from the internet etc) either overheats or that data areas in the driver overflow because the machine simply stops dead: the display still works (no black or blue screen) but neither mouse nor keyboard work.


I have a HP dv7-3010so with Windows 7 Home Premium and a Realtek 8167 NIC.
