I recently upgraded my computer to Windows 8.1 and unfortunately, my Ethernet connection is not working. I suspect that I need to update the driver for it. I have tried searching for the driver on the manufacturer's website, but I couldn't find it. Can anyone provide me with a direct download link for the Windows 8.1 Ethernet driver? I would greatly appreciate any help.
