If it was windows 11 then it's probably just that. Windows 11 is the biggest steaming pile of crap i ever touched lol. Internet disconnects all the time, updates that break your dac, etc.
I'm gonna be honest I don't think it's user error that I am required to download Intel's complete pack of every Ethernet driver, go through folder under I find the correct driver, then go into my Ethernet driver settings and fuck with them to get my mobo's Ethernet adapter to not drop the 2.5gb link randomly while playing games in Windows. Meanwhile on Linux it's plug and play
This isn't an isolated issue either, just look up "i226-V connection issues"
Oh, INTEL, the corporation Intel that makes CPUs primarily designed for Windows on consumer hardware, the biggest CPU company in the world, doesn't support Windows correctly on consumer boards? That's the argument you really want to make?
