Yeah, chances are you need to download the WAN/LAN drivers from your motherboard's website. I would start there.

Just run them on the computer. You can't install the drivers if they're not on your computer. What computer do you have anyways? List the technical specs.

Great that it's working for you. Windows does a fairly decent job of setting up basic driver sets for a host of adaptive devices, but nothing beats especially tuned drivers from the manufacturer website. That should always be your first visit when setting up a new machine.

It's so much easier now that we have veritable powerful computers in our hands. Doing all this shit when I started building computers was much more informed. Had to make sure you had everything going before building or swapping components, because your computer was going to be down for a good while. Was no such thing as YouTube tutorials on smartphones.
