Drive doesn't show up in Device Manager

2022-03-22 02:30:41 - last edited 2022-03-24 00:48:57

Model: TG-3468

Hardware Version: V4

Firmware Version:

Once that it wasn't any "setup.exe" in the adapter installation file, I tried to do it manually, as was advised. Unfortunately, when i opened the Device Manager, there were not any "TP-LINK" drive in the Network Adapters section. However, I know the drive was recognized, because I can use the internet when connected by the adapters hardware.

Hello @Leo_Carlos

Please check if the adapter shows up under the Device manager-> Network adapter/Other device. It could be shown as " TPLINK XX " or " 802.11n/ac" or its chipset like " RTL/ RealteckXX" etc.

@Solla-topee just this ones

There are two "Realtek" but I don't have idea of which is the right one

Hello @Leo_Carlos

If you only got one ethernet adapter, try to temporarily disable Realtek Family controller and see if the current Ethernet connection interrupts, if so that is TG-3468 adapter.
