Where to get broadcom beta driver

Hello John,

 

This might happen because of the hardware problem in your network card. If you are confident that it is not the case follow these steps and it will solve your problem. 

Go to control panel from the start and click on Network and Internet connections. 

Click on Network connections and right click on the local area connection and go to properties. 

In the General tab click on the Configure button. 

Pop up message will appear saying that “do you really want to proceed”, click yes. 

In the Broadcom NetXtreme II GigE properties window go to Advanced tab. 

In the property list find the IPv4 Large Send Offload and disable it from the drop down list. 

Also Change the Speed and Duplex setting from Auto to 100 MB Full. 

Click OK.  

 

This should take care of your issue. 

 

Thank you. 

Rubi Sharlene.
