1. right click computer
2. manage
3. Device manager - double click
4. network adapters
5. Nvidia nForce 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet (i am using nforce 15.51 Ethernet drivers atm) right click
6. Properties for the adapter that you are using be it one or two
7. Advanced
8. Receive Side Scaling - (disabled!!!!!! not enabled) this is most important.

Enjoy :D

For now this works. If I see the connection randomly drop out again, what should I do? D: Has anyone had their connection randomly drop out after trying this method?

I tried this but when I get to # 5, the Nvidia Force, etc is not in my list. So which one am I supposed to choose?

whatever name corresponds to the ethernet driver you are using.^

I am having this same problem I followed instructions. Receive side scaling is not on the list....there is receive buffering...but all of it is listed with one disabled button, and it is all disabled. Any other suggestions?

you can try re installing the driver for your network adapter.

to unistall
1. go to your network adapter's properties
2. click unistall driver

then windows will automatically wnat you to re-install driver
click ok and winows will reinstall the latest driver for your adapter

Did you have to reset it everytime, or was it random?

I find that the MS advice to disable the Broadcast flag isn't useful. If you move around various networks you have to keep resetting the NIC, setting the Force Broadcast flag has no effect. I fail to understand why they had to break DHCP.

hello brent,

well i would mostly advice you to first uninstall ie and then reinstalling it this could help and secondly maybe the problem is coming from your network adpater and perhaps you must change it

Or you could just get rid of Micro$oft and use GPL software like fire fox. or do away with Micro$oft all together and use "freedom" os (LINUX)
