The adapter works; Windows is broken

Wed 02/07/2018 16:46. Asus Vivobook F510UA FHD 2016 laptop running Windows 10. Cannot ping a known network computer with ugreen adapter. Works with the old adapter. I had the same experience with a RevainBasics USB 3 adapter which I returned. And I'm going to take this one back and balance my tech needs with some of these things that I lie about in a different time, presumably when they worked. Thu, 08/02/2018, 07:06. ADAPTER OK; WINDOWS BROKENI get humiliated in front of these innocent adapters because I FORGOTTEN important Windows junk I should have remembered. Whenever you connect a new USB/Ethernet adapter, Windows will erase your ethernet settings and reset them to default.2. Then when you plug in the old one, Windows *remembers* its settings and produces the behavior described above.3. Most (?) systems work with this random break.4. Some won't, including my fixed numeric ethernet.5 peer address. As I recalled, fixing the ethernet settings wasn't hard, but it took too long to do. Try Google for "Windows IPv4 Settings".
