Hello,

My brand new Alienware m17 R3 Killer E3000 ethernet just quit out of nowhere. I had been configuring networks via ethernet and I plugged in at a later time to find the adapter status in windows alternating between unplugged and unidentified network for a second in a continuous loop.

I've tried everything except clear CMOS or fresh install......swapped cables, wall ports, rebooted the entire network/ laptop ran Dell diagnostics on E card solely (could not complete test result message), disabled/ removed/ reinstalled newest driver Killer control center and the whole ipconfig release/ renew/ flush/ winsock reset commands.

Thanks!
