Не удалось обнаружить правильно установленный сетевой адаптер — как исправить?
При отсутствии Интернета на компьютере или ноутбуке, как по кабелю, так и по Wi-Fi, запустив встроенное устранение неполадок сети вы можете получить сообщение: «Установите драйвер для сетевого адаптера. Windows не удалось обнаружить правильно установленный сетевой адаптер».
В этой пошаговой инструкции подробно о том, как исправить ошибку «Не удалось обнаружить правильно установленный сетевой адаптер» в Windows 11 и Windows 10, как установить драйвер сетевого адаптера и дополнительная информация, которая может быть полезной при решении проблемы.
Сетевой адаптер в диспетчере устройств
Начать решение проблемы рекомендую с диспетчера устройств и установки драйверов, возможно, не только для Ethernet или Wi-Fi адаптера.
Первые шаги будут следующими:
- Нажмите правой кнопкой мыши по кнопке «Пуск», выберите пункт «Диспетчер устройств».
- В диспетчере устройств раскройте раздел «Сетевые адаптеры» и посмотрите, есть ли в списке нужные Ethernet (для подключения кабелем) или Wi-Fi (WLAN) адаптеры. Учитывайте, что адаптеры «WAN Miniport», как на изображении ниже — это не то, что нужно.
- Если адаптеры есть в списке, но рядом со значком адаптера вы видите значок со стрелкой, значит адаптер отключен: нажмите по нему правой кнопкой мыши и выберите пункт «Включить».
- Если на значке адаптера отображается желтый восклицательный знак, дважды нажмите по такому адаптеру и посмотрите код ошибки и её описание на вкладке «Общие» в пункте «Состояние устройства» — этот код может помочь разобраться, в чём дело: выполните поиск по коду ошибки в Интернете.
- Для сетевого адаптера с ошибкой также можно попробовать следующий подход: правый клик — удалить устройство и, после удаления, выбрать пункт «Обновить конфигурацию оборудования» в пункте меню «Действие» диспетчера устройств — иногда это помогает быстро решить проблему.
- При отсутствии нужных сетевых адаптеров в списке, в главном меню диспетчера устройств в пункте «Вид» включите показ скрытых устройств и посмотрите, присутствуют ли какие-либо неизвестные устройства или устройства с ошибками (желтым восклицательным знаком) в других разделах диспетчера устройств. Если таковые есть в наличии — возможно, это и есть нужный сетевой адаптер, далее рассмотрим, как заставить его работать.
Драйверы сетевой карты или Wi-Fi адаптера
При наличии сетевой карты или Wi-Fi адаптера в разделе «Сетевые адаптеры» диспетчера устройств, а также при наличии неизвестных устройств и устройств с ошибками в других разделах, первое, что следует попробовать — вручную установить нужные драйверы. Общий порядок действий:
- Используя другой компьютер или даже смартфон найдите официальную страницу поддержки вашей модели материнской платы (для ПК) или ноутбука. Для этого в любой поисковой системе обычно достаточно ввести «модель_устройства поддержка».
- На странице поддержки вашего устройства найдите раздел для загрузки драйверов, а на нем — нужные драйверы для сетевых адаптеров, которые могут называться: Network Driver, LAN Driver, Ethernet Driver для подключения кабелем, либо Wi-Fi, WLAN, Wireless LAN — для Wi-Fi подключения. Внимание: может оказаться, что на официальном сайте представлены драйверы сетевой карты только для предыдущих версий системы, в этом случае рекомендую скачать их — как правило, они исправно работают и на Windows 11/10.
- Дополнительно рекомендую скачать имеющиеся драйверы чипсета, а для ноутбуков, при наличии — драйверы управления электропитанием (Могут называться: Power Management, ACPI, ATK. Дополнительно имеет смысл загрузить драйверы Intel ME или Management Engine). Иногда при их отсутствии возможны проблемы при включении сетевого адаптера.
- Установите скачанные драйверы в следующем порядке: Чипсет — Управление электропитанием (если были доступны) — Драйвер сетевой карты и/или Wi-Fi адаптера.
- При необходимости, перезагрузите компьютер и проверьте, решило ли это проблему.
- В некоторых случаях, когда сетевой адаптер отображается в диспетчере устройств, но работает неправильно, может помочь следующий подход: нажмите правой кнопкой мыши по сетевому адаптеру, выберите «Обновить драйвер», затем используйте следующие пункты: Найти драйверы на этом компьютере — Выбрать драйвер из списка доступных драйверов на компьютере. Посмотрите, присутствуют ли в списке другие совместимые драйверы (не те, что установлены в текущий момент). При их наличии — попробуйте выбрать, нажать «Далее» и проверить, решило ли это проблемы с сетью и Интернетом после установки драйвера.
Если по какой-то причине загрузить и установить драйверы с официального сайта не удается, вам могут пригодиться способы найти драйвер неизвестного устройства, а также описание использования SDI — программы с открытым исходным кодом для автоматического поиска и установки драйверов.
Включение сетевого адаптера в БИОС/UEFI
При отсутствии любых признаков наличия сетевого адаптера в диспетчере устройств может оказаться, что он отключен в БИОС/UEFI вашего компьютера или ноутбука.
- Зайдите в БИОС/UEFI, на ноутбуке это обычно клавиша F2, на ПК — Del, но бывают и другие варианты: Как зайти в БИОС на компьютере или ноутбуке.
- Найдите опцию для включения LAN Controller, Onboard LAN, Ethernet Controller, Gigabit LAN, Integrated NIC (это варианты пунктов для Ethernet-адаптера).
- Или опцию WLAN, Wireless LAN, Wi-Fi Adapter (для беспроводной сети).
- Установите её значение в «Enabled». Сами параметры включения и отключения сетевых адаптеров могут находиться в разделах: Advanced, Configuration, Chipset, Onboard Devices, Integrated Peripherals, Network Configuration, но возможны иные варианты.
- Сохраните настройки БИОС и перезагрузите компьютер.
Если причина была именно в этом, то после перезагрузки Windows автоматически определит ваше сетевое устройство и установит драйверы для него.
В случае, если предыдущие варианты не помогли решить проблему «Установите драйвер для сетевого адаптера. Windows не удалось обнаружить правильно установленный сетевой адаптер», можно попробовать следующие методы:
- Если проблема появляется после завершения работы и последующего включения, но исчезает, если использовать пункт «Перезагрузка», попробуйте отключить быстрый запуск Windows.
- Выполните сброс сетевых параметров: Как сбросить сетевые настройки Windows 11, Сброс сетевых настроек Windows 10.
- Если проблема появилась недавно, а Windows не переустанавливалась, могут помочь точки восстановления системы на дату, когда всё работало исправно.
Надеюсь, один из вариантов поможет исправить ситуацию: буду рад прочитать о сработавшем решении в комментариях ниже.
