The on board Ethernet port on my Pavilion a305w will not work. The device manager has the drivers hidden and have to un-hide to view. All the drivers seem to be ok and everything reads ok ready to use etc. Neither of the LEDs are lit on the receptacle. I have reloaded the drivers over the old ones. I have NOT uninstalled any drivers.
Thank you in advance
Jim

Jan 11, 2022 - Open Windows Device Manager. Click to expand Ports (COM & LPT). Right click on the target USB device. Select Properties. Shift to Port Settings.
look in the top left or right hand corner of the devices screen, there should be three dots ...if you touch that option it will bring up a list of things u can do such as hide apps ,show hidden app, hide disabled apps etc
click start control panel scroll to folder options view place a tick in show hidden files folders and drives this may vary depending on your operating system hope it helps
Verify if the driver is installed properly for the ethernet card using the device manager. If the device is not shown in the devoce manager, make sure the wiring for the card is done properly and there is no loose connection. If the problem continues, try replacing the ethernet card. If that too fails, there is some problem with your computer mother board
Hoe this helps. Feel free to reply if you have any doubts.
make sure that the chords are securely connected to the correct slot, and that the jumper pins for them are not either broken off or bent flat. if that isnt the problem try running a registry fixer like regcure or something to clear the original settings. or try to reset your BIOS
